any able-bodied person not working is a waste...ooops
Whew!!! Glad I got me a job.
ok, well my brother is really the only one in my family that continues to freely associate with me.
he is two years younger than me (19) and has always looked up to me-for some reason.
he has been dating a girl name tess for the last couple months or so in the traditional dub fasion (barely any contact).

spiders!!!
i can handle any other bug, snakes, mice, etc....but get me near a spider, and i nearly have a breakdown.. this morning, i went to grab some clothes from the bathroom to wash, felt something crawling on my arm, looked down, giant, hairy, brown spider.
i still have the heebie-jeebies, and i probably woke up the neighbors.. *shudder*.
Hi Tinkerbelle,
It's just a good thing you didn't grow up, well, a long damn time ago!! We had to endure this as saturday morning entertainment....
how many of you were actually brought into the jws by someone at your door?
how many were born in or brought in by family?.

I was 5 when the jw lady came to the house and my mom fell for it straight away.
in the light of day, and over a nice cup of tea, sanity returns.
the problems which once seemed so big are reduced to their correct proportions, and i am left feeling more than a little embarassed over my role in the events of the past 24 hours.
i didn't realize i had a drama queen buried inside waiting to be activated.
I missed whatever happened and don't need to know but I do have to say that I cannot imagine this board without Big Tex / Cruzanheart. I'm sure I'm not alone in that.
Now then, go ahead and flame me for that. I'll leave. I will dammit. I'm not joking!
i work in a very small shop and the secretary has been the owner's mother-in-law.
sadly, she has been in the hospital for the past couple of weeks and in fact the family was summoned to the hospital late this afternoon and apparently she doesn't have long to live.
who knows what tomorrow will bring.
Just a quick update (not that anyone's keeping up with this though).
Betty passed away last Saturday evening and her funeral was today. As was noted during the service this morning, you could describe her best with just one word, sweet. That's what everyone thought of her and she and I got along quite well and like everyone else, I'll miss her too. Her family is pretty broken up now and that was hard to see. I've been working there for 5 1/2 years and this is the 3rd person at the shop to pass away. The original owner, Jack (a Pearl Harbor survivor), the other part time secretary Opal, and now Betty. It really has become like family in some ways and this is just part of being family I guess.
Death sucks.
yes, i know....there've been topics started discussed about ebay.. i've had an absolute blast with it as of recent.. what have i bought lately?.
a yellow dial telephone in excellent condition (from manitoba).
several 45's (vinyl records).. i'm amazed at what you can find on there.
Like will says, check the feedback and get a feel for the trustworthiness as best you can.
I've bought 2 guitars, roto toms (drums), cymbals (for drums), currently waiting to recieve my newest drum, albums, CD's, books, I get my printer inks there and at a WAY cheaper price than at stores, software, videos, my digital camera...get the picture? Only time I got burned was buying a record turntable from some Canadian! lol
Best use of ebay IMO though is comparison shopping.
my friend's intentions are sweet, but read this forward she e-mailed me and tell me if you'd reply, if so, what would you say?
i found myself getting angry that people would actually forward this crap to me.. .
god still sits on the throne.
yeahp, I get those religious chain emails all the time too. But, if it wasn't for them I'd get virtually no email at all so what's a loser to do?
do you have your own way of saying things, your own words for describing things?
for example, i don't say alzheimer disease, i say old timers disease.
why not, usually only old people get that.
At an assembly in Houston many moons ago, my dad and I were talking about the size of the Astrodome and I wanted to know the circlefrence of the place. Hey now, I was only about 9 or so, go easy!
Preen Scrinting. Well that's just how it came out after inhaling the thinner fumes. My story, sticking to it.
Had a niece that used to say "O.E" for "write". Have no clue about that one but we all knew what 'I wanna O.E.' meant.

Thanks for your replies everyone. At least I see I was looking at the whole thing rightly - which is to say it's got trouble written all over it. The lady in the hospital, Betty, isn't expected to live through the weekend so next week is going to be pretty trying. I'll have a chat with the boss though at an opprotune moment just so he knows what he's really getting. Then if that's what he wants, fine.
Arrow, I'll also mention that you might be interested so he'll know there are other options. I'll let you know something as soon as I know something.
