Oh, and another thing- that all-white Christian Academy private school- they weren't all snobs. Got to know a few of them, who were REAL Christians, as in practice what you preach. They were a little too goody-two-shoes for my taste, what with all the praying and hand-holding and hugging, but...

...and another point I want to make. The "Good Old Days" when I was in school was no bed of roses. It was tough and you had to scrap. There was some lingering racism- some of the whites just didn't like blacks, and vice-versa. But that was mostly among the "Townies". Most of us farm kids got...

For anyone who has worked in SoCarolina and paid their state taxes and followed their politics and been harrassed by their woefully underpaid, barely literate cops, just for having an out-of-state license plate, this comes as no surprise. The state itself is beautiful in places, and some of the...

strangely enough, many of these things are also caused by the condition of being alive. Couldn't agree more! When one realizes that no matter how many precautions you take, how much fiber you ingest, et cetera and ad nauseum you could still be clocked out by a lightning bolt or whatever at...

My public school education was a mixed bag- I still think that religion (i.e.- High School Football) got too much of the budget, to the detriment of academics. But we had some teachers who really cared about the kids and learning. The only other option was a Christian private school that most of...

Hey, I'm no big Obama cheerleader, but getting sick and tired of everybody giving the guy so much grief, and often over the most trivial B.S. Call him on the B.S., if you disagree with his policies, but he IS our President. His cabinet IS our Executive Branch right now. I don't agree with a lot...

Never strongly disliked MJ, just never got into that kind of pop music. It was briefly cool when he had a Van Halen guitar solo, and got Vincent Price's voice, but it was just bubblegum pop pablum for the mindless teenyboppers, as far as I was concerned. There was so much better music made in...

Hey, Tonks! Hope you are well. Me, I never could get the hang of IM. Can't type that fast. Still don't know how to text-message on my cell. Them little buttons are too small for my big clumsy fingers. I strongly dislike telephones and really peeved that they've gone wireless. Too much space junk...

A little boy got a set of building blocks for his birthday. His Ma asked him why he didn't play with them. "I don't know what to build". His Ma suggested he go outside and watch the constuction crew building the new house next door, just keep out of their way. So he went out into the front yard...

Hey, I remember that song! Verse 1: My house smells just like a zoo It's chock full of shit and puke Cockroaches on the walls Grass growing on my balls oh well im so clean cut and I just want to fuck some slut Chorus: I love living in the city I love living in the city Verse 2...

"I have a 45min-1hr drive to work each morning...long enough, thanks " Jeezus, that means 8 hours of work plus 2 hours commute= 10 hours, not to mention gasoline, wear&tear on the vehicle every day. Is there no limit to what a human being can tolerate?

I've thought about buying a hobby farm, but those'd take me pretty far away from where I work. I have a 45min-1hr drive to work each morning...long enough, thanks A "hobby farm"- there's a concept! Thanks! The little accountant in my brain says, "Yeah- you can rent out the Back Forty to...

Armadillos- an "invader specie" but it didn't invade- brought in by humans. They are supposed to carry leprosy, but I like 'em- they eat fire ants and yellowjacket larvae- more power to 'em. And we all need a little more leprosy, anyway. Q: What did the leper say to the hooker? A: "Keep the...

"I am woman, hear me ROAR"- Gloria Steinem "I am man, hear me SNORE" - JTP

Aye, I guess we have to have official enforcers. My hat is off to you all who have to live in cities and big towns. It must require a lot of patience and tolerance. The noise level alone would drive me crazy, not to mention having to interact with so many people constantly. I guess the rural...

Q: Why do vasectomies cost so much? A: Because no expense is too great when it comes to saving the human race from over-population!

Inkara1- Your eyeballs are safe, especially since you're on the other side of the continent. My point was that there have always been unwanted kids. It's a by-product of sex. Everyone likes to get laid, but few are ready, willing and able to be responsible parents to the offspring. Don't say...

Ah, the Voice of Reason! Never understood the need for "domestic help". If you are such an important big shot that you just don't have time to manage/clean/maintain your own Castle... maybe the Castle's too big. Maybe you're wasting space and oxygen.

I was at the neighborhood store today to get my fix of Funyuns, nicotine, and caffeine. There was a bunch of youngsters hanging out in front. They parted like the Biblical Sea for Moses. I flatter myself to think it was my gravitas, but more likely it was superficial stuff, like my Motorhead...

"You can always complain to the city about your neighbours' crap on their lawn. They're pretty good at replying."- Mr. Bishop Ah, you see? That's the difference! When you live in a city, or the overgrown sprawl of Suburbia, and the "crap on your neighbor's lawn" offends you, your first resort...
