Where are you leaving your footprint

If it's common, it must build up quite easily. Who cleans it up?

Till death do us....or 9,000 miles....part

Where are you leaving your footprint

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it Singapore who beat the crap out of a man for throwing chewing gum on the sidewalk.

Where are you leaving your footprint

No problem...I was off topic too with that Vinny guy

Where are you leaving your footprint

Very, very good point.

Where are you leaving your footprint

That's what I was saying....that those people will go home and manicure their lawn and give no thought to leaving their garbage left behind for Him to clean up. Oh, I know....a miracle will make it disappear

Where are you leaving your footprint

I'm sorry that it was long Jesse but I had no other way to make my point.

Where are you leaving your footprint

I was getting a cart at the supermarket and there was another woman doing the same but someone had left the store circular in her cart. She took it out and threw it on the ground even though there was a trash receptacle right next to her. I said to her "Excuse me, but there is a garbage can there". She looked shocked but she picked it up and put it in the trash can. I felt bad that I had embarrassed her but I'm hoping that she won't do it again in fear that someone else may approach her for throwing trash on the ground.

On the way to work this morning I needed a cough drop. I didn't have the heart to throw that little piece of paper out the window so I set it aside and when I stopped for coffee I took it with me and threw it in the garbage can.

Yesterday morning, when I pulled into the parking lot at work, there was a Coke bottle standing upright on the white line of a parking space. I could tell that someone had it in their car and when they were finished with it they set it down on the white line. That bottle is still in the same spot this morning.

The world is not our personal trash can.

When you walk on the beach or on soft ground your footprints will eventually disappear. But when you leave your trash anywhere but in a trash can, it will not disappear.

Yes, a piece of paper will eventually break up and waste away and that piece of chewing gum will stick to the tires and eventually break apart but when you throw your garbage out the window as you are driving down the highway, the plastic items in the bag will not break apart. The styrofoam container that your burger was in will be around for.....well, almost eternity.

Our ocean bottom is being cluttered with trash that people throw off their boats. Our highway grass is cut but what difference does it make when it is cluttered with garbage.

The Girl Scouts practice "leave it the way you found it" assuming that it was pristine when they got there.

When you go camping, hiking, to the beach, a concert stadium, or the mountains, do you throw your trash in the proper receptacle or do you try to hide it.

If you were on a picnic and the baby needed a diaper change would you take it home in a plastic bag if there wasn't a trash can or hide it under a rock.

When you walk your dog, do you take a plastic bag with you to pick up its poo or leave it for someone else to worry about.

Do you recycle your plastic bottles, newspapers and cardboard or do you throw them in with your household garbage?

Do you discard your battries the proper way.

When you change the oil in your car, do you throw it in the woods, in a drain or do you take it to an auto shop.

When you buy a six pack of soda or beer do you cut open each circle of the plastic around it so that the birds don't get caught in it when it goes to the landfill.

Would you throw the paper cover on a straw out the window. It's such a tiny piece of paper and the rain will dissolve it but what if 6 billion people all at the same time threw a straw cover out the window of their car.

Do you feel a responsibility to take care of Mother Earth or is it easier to say, what the heck, it's only a piece of paper.

Perhaps I am blowing it out of proportion, worrying about a gum wrapper on the street. After all, it will eventually disappear when it rains. But the rain won't dissolve all the garbage and the sun won't melt those plastic bottles.

Some people manicure their lawns to perfection and there isn't a weed to be found but when they get in their car and stop for a snack along the roadway, they don't give it a second thought to throw their trash out the window. If someone threw it on their lawn they would be angry. Why doesn't it bother that person to throw trash on someone else's property. The earth is your property. Why is their yard more important then yours.

Are you leaving your footprint only in the sand or in the environment of others around you.

Showoff But I think you got it

RE: What do you call an event which has not happened....YET?

He wrote the thread and then went offline. Don't expect your questions to be answered.

RE: Get some help.

Take it from someone who knows, the people in the forums, who live in the real world everyday, who may have been in your shoes at one time, will relate you much better then the one with the degree and their hand out for a check.

I found that out yesterday ......

RE: Younger Men...

Me neither.

RE: Get some help.

Laura, I'm glad I checked your thread again and hope you see this post.

You asked, why would I seek therapy again. I have no intention going for therapy ever again.

I have found in the past two days that the people in the forums, who really care, have been more helpful then I would ever have expected.

The problem is my daughter keeps putting pressure on me to seek therapy because it was the answer to her problems. But she and I are two different people and what works for her didn't work for me. She had no where near the amount of baggage that I have. I'm glad that it helped her, it's just not for me.

RE: HOWZ IT HANGIN' MAN ?

Putting the roll of quarters in his groin area made it like like it was huge. And being it a rock n roll audience, she figured the girls would go wild.

But I'm wondering, what if he took a girl back stage and she reached down and felt the quarters.

RE: HOWZ IT HANGIN' MAN ?

I saw a movie where a guy was going on stage for the first time as a rock singer.

His manager gave him a roll of quarters. He didn't know what to do with them.

Anybody know what she wanted him to do with the quarters?

RE: HOWZ IT HANGIN' MAN ?

I think it's the other way around. Left = right handed, etc.

RE: HOWZ IT HANGIN' MAN ?

Ohhhhhh, I know I shouldn't do this but I can't resist.

First of all, I know what you mean.....

And, what about the guys that use a roll of quarters

This will be my last post in this thread as I will be leaving work soon.

My daughter and her husband are taking me for dinner tonight so it should be a good evening.

I want to thank EVERYONE who came to my rescue today.

I do feel better and will try to practice all the suggestions that everyone has shared with me.

I'll even try to swear once in awhile

Good nite everyone.



Just had to throw a little food in the picture

RE: Happy Birthday To A Lovely Lady! Snugs 09

Ambrose, I am becoming fond of THAT word. I'm walking around the house, think to myself, that EFFIN B, who does he think he is and when the boss said...why isn't this done yet, I thought that EFFIN A, what a pain in the butt.

Kinda cool F this F that

I swear, you made me laugh more today than I have in the past six months.

oops Corinne gotta spell it right

If I do that then I'll be angry all the time instead of sad

And Brett said, frankly Corinn, I don't give a damn.

Sharon, what's a WM group? You shouldn't have any problem emailing me, cause I don't have anyone from CS blocked.

Right again, it is difficult to concentrate. I work in a law office and that in itself is a nightmare. I try not to let my problems interfere with work but sometimes that's easier said than done.

Sharing my cake with everybody and the chips and the ice cream and the cheese crackers and the pretzels, and the.....

Thank you for the birthday wishes Kitty.

The average person, usually women, goes on a diet and might cheat with a thing or two but she gets right back on it the next day. No big deal. She's on a diet simply because she wants to be healthy.

My situation is for the same reason to be on the diet but I fell off the wagon for a different reason. I let my problems get the best of me and that's different then just a little cheating.

I've heard about hypnotization but I personally think the best way is the way I initially did it, with willpower and determination on my own accord.
