  hey there.

  i'm new to the forums and just had to say hi, and thank you to all of you who've shared your stories which have let me know finally and for sure that i'm not crazy and nowhere near as abnormal as i've been feeling...well, forever, really, but more so over these last few years!!!

  i can't tell you what a good feeling that is, but i suspect you already know.

  I live next to the Mississippi river, albeit with a highway and railroad tracks in the way.

  My property runs five hundred feet up a bluff with my house being a 150 feet in so we have a pretty good sized wooded area in back.

  We have a herd of 17-20 deer running the woods, as well as eagles flying overhead and a lot of smaller stuff, raccoons, skunks, wild turkey, grey and red squirrels, rabbits, owls, and blue herons.

  It never gets old to just sit in the truck waiting for the rest to be ready and watching deer up the hill.

  And I'm two blocks inside the city limits of St Paul!

  Too bad we have a city ordinance against taking game, them giant woodrats (deer) look like lunch to me!

  And I thought there might be a firefight.

  I guess we're all tuckered out.

  Of course we swayed!

  And the particularly theocratic would get out their lighters, flick em and hold 'em high.

  Especially during Free Bird.

  Wait, you mean at meetings?

  No, never. Boooooring!

  Wow, a dangerous mission under the radar and behind enemy lines.

  I hope you make it, but if you don, the resistance, lives on.

  VIVA LA RESISTANCE!

  And remember, cigarettes aren't just handy for setting off self righteous born-againers, they make a nice time delay fuse.

  Love bombs, meet rotten egg smell!

  J/K, don't actually do that.

  Of course if you have a frozen chicken for the furnace room.....

  Got told off by a born again-er

  i was enjoying a smoke on my little porch at my apartments and my neighbors pull up.

  the woman got out, pointed her finger at me and demanded what that "thing" in my hand was.

  i proudly held up my hand with a fag in it.

  As a bible-believer, I would like to say that we DO have our share of whack-a-doos among our ranks.

  I maintain that suck folk can be found in every religion, and outside religion in general, but I sympathize with you for having to deal with such rudeness.

  Why is is so hard for these brain-donors to comprehend that civility should be the very LEAST we can expect, and should strive to improve upon such an unambitious starting point?

  I shake my head.

  If they've been 'born again' and this is the 'new personality' they should try again, it didn't take.

  Here you all are getting worked up over what is a 'disputed quote' at wikiquote.

  http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/George_H._W._Bush

  The only verification comes from an atheist activist.

  I find it unlikely that Bush the Elder would have said that to a known atheist activist, I mean why shoot yourself in the dick?

  However, I'm no huge fan of the man, and he did drop a few lulu's.

  All i'm saying is that the quote is tossed out without the proper attribution as disputed, and you guys get yer panties in a twist.

  Now who's a bunch of arrogant jerks?

  Typical Long-ass Rollerdavishness

  bad chicken is one of the worst stenches you will ever encounter, i hate the card game 'trips and runs' and certain wendy's drive thru's are open until 3am, but i get ahead of myself.. my becky's work has its christmas party in january, which is kinda odd, but also works pretty good for deflecting flack from my relatives who remain proudly captives of the crusty old codgers from crooklyn in their control tower.. we went to the party last night.

  it was in a banquet hall connected to and run by a catholic church.

  there was an open bar, which by local ordinance necessitated the presence of an armed off duty police officer, we had food, and the entertainment was a local 'casino service' that provides the chips the dealers, and the games; all becky's work had to provide was the prize table so we could bid on the prizes with our 'points' at the end of the evening.. there was some primo stuff there, rock band, guitar hero for x-box 360, a top end espresso machine, tools, i mean some damn good stuff.. so dinner went well, i managed to keep the carb count low, but didn't really get filled up.

  ooh! I just remembered, this conversation also took place while playing the cardgame I cannot stand around the table by the stench!

  "Say mom, now that the door is open again, you ever thought about being anointed?"

  "What?"

  "I said, NOW THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN AGAIN, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE ANNOINTED"

  "Oh you!"

  "No seriously, you oughtta think it over, give it a try. It might just be for you"

  She glares at me

  "I'm just saying, is all. Should think about it"

  Somehow I don't think she wants to give up riding tigers and cleaning up the bones of billions of those who proved unloved by their God of Omnicide.

  Ty, Odrade! I live to serve.

  JK, that is quite possibly one of the most vivid mental pictures I will attempt to delete this week.

  Kind of like a maggot pinata made of metal or Pandora's box of unexpected filth

  When I was first married we had to clean out a fridge like that, I found reason to be elsewhere and let Ex number one deal with it.

  When I was a bet less mature, not TOO much, but enough....

  And someone had offended me to the point I wished to make a rather juvenile statement as to that effect, I would stuff a chicken with ground beef and a couple whole eggs, freeze it, and then conceal it where it would not be noticed until it....

  Ahem,

  "Made its presence abundantly evident"

  I would chortle with glee as I imagined the hapless idiot discovering the decaying bird hosting a sock-hop of lurid, obscenely white crawlies in their BBQ grill or under the mower in their garden shed they haven't visited for a month in July....

  Juvenile, I know. But we've all done things we're not proud of *Cough! *Cough! Field Circus! *Cough!
