I've never seen a cricket match. I love Baseball (except for the damn Yankees) and I would be very curious to see a cricket match. It is the Grandfather of Baseball after all.

I remember reading somewhere that she is quoted as saying "I must have a man every night".
I'm sure she had no trouble with that during her day... -

This is a follow up to my previous thread titles, "Am I a Sucker?" which can be found here:
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/94985/1.ashx
So, last week, this girl that has been living at our house comes home from work and announces that she is going to go volunteer at the Fire Department, which is something that she has been doing from time to time. And, that she has to take a certification test at the fire department the following morning, so she may be late to work. (She just started a job at the local Target). We told her that it's probably NOT a good idea to be late for work, especially this being your first week on the job. She responded that she likes the Fire Department and it's something she enjoys doing. We do understand that, but, as we told her, the Fire Department is on a Volunteer basis only, AND, you don't get paid for Volunteer work. Your job that gives you a paycheck should be your main priority at this time. Needless, she got a little upset at the comments we were giving her, and she left to go to the fire department.
So, at 10PM, she calls our house and says that she has to take her test early in the morning, so she is going to sleep over her cousin's house. We thought this strange because the caller ID had the same first name as her former next door neighbor's house who is a 35 year old guy who has been very forward in lettiing her know that he want's to have sex with her. A little checking of the caller ID records proved that she was calling from her former neighbors home.
We asked her if she was at that guy's house, since the caller ID said his name, but she lied and said that she was just borrowing a cell phone from one of the fireman.
Now, this girl is 19 years old, she does have a disability. Both my wife and I have met this former neighbor, and he is the type that would have 2-3 different women come to his apartment each week. This guy is just using her for sex when he can't get any of his other women to come over, and instead of masturbating, he just uses her for sex. Since she's been at our house, we've cleaned her up, helped her get a job, try to build up her self esteem, and then she just goes and runs to some guy who just tear's down her self esteem. He tells her to Shut up, be quiet, you're worthless, etc.
I know that she can pretty much do what she wants to do, because, legally she's an adult. However, the part that I'm upset about is that she just lied right to our face, and continues to lie to our face. That's the part that bothers us the most. How can I trust her again? We are seriously thinking of having her find other living arrangements this week.
Are we making a big deal out of nothing? Can I please have some of your opinions, both good and bad? -

Whatever you do, DON'T mention the War.
Faulty Towers is pure Genius.
But, we got to give a mention to Manuel. That poor SOB could never do anything right.
My favorite Manuel quote is "I know Naathing" -

I love Liver! What's your favorite recipe?
by Rod P inyears ago i was driving down the highway one night, listening to a radio talk show host.. he had some time to kill, so he said to the audience, "i know, let's talk about liver!
how many of you out there like liver?
and if you do like liver, do you have a favorite recipe.".

(How much does your liver weigh?
Twice as much as my onions......hahahahaha)
One of my Fathers favorite meals was Liver and Onions. My parents would make it for dinner once in a while, but I couldn't stand it, so my Mom, would usually make something else for me, which made me feel special.
I used to ask them, how can you stand eating that stuff, they would always reply, If this was all there was to eat, you would learn to like it.
As I got older, I came to realize that Organ, or Variety meats, were very common back during the depression, World War 2, and even into the 50's. It was a cheap way to serve your family meat, especially, when times were tough.
I still don't like Liver. -

Any Back or Neck Crackers Here?
by El Kabong inone of my bad habits is cracking my neck and spine.
so many times when i'm tense i move my head from side to side and hear a loud series of cracks in my neck and the tension just melts away.
same with my spine, i can twist my body a certain way and feel and hear my lower spine crack.

I really have to wonder if it's doing as much damage as some people say it does.
I've been to chiropractors before and they are basically doing the same thing to you.
It's like releasing trapped nerves. A good crack and that tense feeling in your neck or back is gone.
