I Retract My Statements

by snowbird in

in the recent past, i started a thread on how i can't stand teenagers.. something has happened to make me ashamed of those statements.. my daughter informed me that her 15-year old daughter stayed on the phone all night with a friend because her friend was afraid to go to sleep.. the friend's dad had to leave around midnight to go out of town to work.

the child called my g'daughter and asked her to stay on the phone with her because she was home alone and afraid.. my g'daughter propped herself up in bed with her ipod and a cup of tea and talked to her friend until dawn began to break.

now, that is real friendship.. i just wanted to share this.. sylvia.

I'll bet the dad who left his daughter alone didn't sleep well.

A missed opportunity for a sleep over. IMO

2009 a bad year for black people

hiya folks.

do you consider yourself to be intelligent?

if so, the following will make perfect sense to you.

DJK

I think the world economy will make it a bad year for everyone. I think if it weren't for the economy it would have been a very good and well deserved year for blacks.

BTW, did anyone notice that the Presidential Inaugeration is the day after MLK day?

its an opossum!

i just now stepped outside to get something and there it was!

i checked wikipedia and found out they were introduced into this area during the great depression to serve as a source of food.. hmmmm... sounds like the country boy in me is about to come out.. i might have to make me some possum stew!

I had a skunk digging in my yard a few years ago. All four holes it dug had yellow jacket nests.

The skunk proved to be benificial for me. Try and find out what your animal is after.

I still have no TV cable. They couldn't come to rehook it up until after XMas.

Thats one of the top ten reasons "Why people go postal".

I've Got To Tell This!

by snowbird in

one of the police officers here is a transplanted new yorker who was raised as a jw by his g'ma.. he and i talk a lot about his jw experience, his g'ma, and his children (boy age 18, girl age 11).. his kids are both talented athletes (tennis) and the son won a tennis scholarship to university.

he hopes the daughter will follow in her brother's footsteps.. mr. officer mentioned that one saturday, after a particularly strenuous workout, he gave his daughter a bottle of red gatorade to drink.

he said she resisted drinking it at first, but he put his foot down and made her do it.. well, come sunday, he got an urgent message at work that he was to call home immediately.

Nature happens.

It could have been worse. There was a young lady at my KH that started her first during a meeting. The white dress she was wearing made it a dead give away to everyone.

thank you all for the great messages you have written, both publicly and privately.

it figures that the one time i start a topic and it turns into 10 pages long, it's about my dad!!

the funeral will be held next monday, december 29th, at radcliffe crematorium.

The topic is regarding your dad, yes. But it really is about you and we all support you and grieve with you now.

Again, my condolences on your loss.

Radio/Internet Listening

by snowbird in

i'm listening to the radio and internet and one is a little behind the other.. i wonder why?.

sylvia.

If you could watch a tv station on a tv connected to an antenna and another tv connected to cable, the cable tv is nearly 3 seconds behind the antenna tv.

I thought it allowed for censoring purposes but the explaination by Big Tex makes more sense.
