bye-bye!
it's been great weather on viking planet.
it's cold and raining.
snow's melting, and everyone's doubling over while walking on ice; friction is king.
Oh, oh, oh another Viking! At first I thought you were talking about Minnesota (USA), but soon realized how anal I am...but, being from the frozen tundra of the western hemisphere I can relate. Regretably, I have thawed out some so don't think I would be able to compete in the "Polar Bear" contest. Might just have to pack my bags, grab the Bohemian wife, and take a trip to the great state of Norway...
well, i knew it would happen sooner or later.
one of the two witnesses who work at my office called me last night, delicately mentioned that she had "heard" i was celebrating birthdays and christmas and wanted to know what the hell was going on.
or substance.
But don't boil the alligators in oil...they get really, really mad when you do that! Now, maybe the migranes will lessen. On that subject, I used to have 4 or 5 a month but started taking magnesium daily. Significant reduction and when I do get one I pop an Imatrix - usually gone within 30 minutes. And, after giving more thought to the original subject, do place the 'gators in the oil. If the elders show up they will get what they deserve!
ok so i'm on the phone talking to my friend, when i hear a knock so light i wasn't even sure if it was a knock.... (the doorbell, lighted, works just fine).. i open the door.
two attractive young ladies in their early 20s are standing there, don't even make eye contact.
one reaches into her bookbag and pulls out the lasts watchtower and asnake magazines and proceeds to ramble incoherently for the next 30 seconds.
Lisa, that was really beautiful... I'm printing it out now to study and share with the family so they can respond in such an eye-opening way. I'll probably share it with the neighbors too... can you imagine the confusion in a car group if they all had that same experience in one neighborhood???
during your lifetime or after you pass away, what do you want your legacy to be?
what do you want people to remember about you?
I want my sons to remember me like I remember my dad. As a man, he was strong and honest, as a father, he was tough on me (which, needless to say I needed) but gentle and kind when I needed him to be. He made me laugh even though I made him cry. He left me in death way too early but the lessons he taught me, made me a survivor. Yeah, I want to be remembered by my children like that...
what gets to me is when i hear a story that gets embellished .
it's worse when someone relates the story and i was the original teller of it....what about you?
My dear wife in a....oops probably not what you meant. My hangup is bad drivers. The tailgators, people on their cell phone who have no clue what's going on around them. I remember, when I drove the Interstate daily, one guy who would be reading a book while driving down the road. Luckily in Midwest U.S.A, we have a ice and snow. The weather seems to have a unique separation power - kinda like removing the chaff from the wheat (Damn JW stuff still cloggin up the writing veins)
But, my wife in a *******, that really drives me crazy. Just ask her!
when you were active, did you buy any lottery tickets?
i know a xjw who told me that he never stopped buying lottery tickets, even when he was active.
he always asked somebody else to go get them for him, so that he wouldn't be seen buying them.
Always made sure I got into the "retirement fund" at work when Powerball got over $100 million. Didn't want to be the only one left at work and have to miss meetings because my job now required me to do the work of 6 managers. I would probably have to agree its a waste of money, except for the guy that wins at it. A dollar here, and dollar there...we all have vices as long as it doesn't become a problem. I say, "Have fun 'cause if you don't play you are sure not to win!"
Oh and the powerball in U.S., is at $215 million. Probably time to invest in the "retirement fund" again. Have fun, but play responsibly!
Still the BadJerry
as founder and president of the "it just doesn't matter club"...i invite you all to join.... .
first rule is "be calm", and don't attack others views....reason with them but be gentle.... .
there is no fee and all are welcome.....race, gender, iq, or beliefs don't matter either.... .
I thought it was the "Middle of the Road" club???????????
The way those Englishmen get confused driving (you know, left instead of right) the middle of the road might be a safe place???????????
and now I've got that Chicago tune running through my head - I hate it when that happens...brings back all those days of (!(@^!($^!(@)* can't remember those days!). Thanks for the needed laugh.
yeah..............my parents told me when i was 5 that i would never get to high school, as this evil system of things would end long before that!!
well....here i am, pushing 30. i had to go to hs, college, and even get a job!!
imagine that!
Yep, and think about the 70 year old widow who finally awakes to the conclusion she's going to live miserably for the rest of her life on just social security - she can't even afford the medicine to relieve the aches and pains. She's given 99 percent of her life to a thought of paradise, but as the light gets brighter for her, she begins to see the fraud (and her soulmate is now gone to rest). I'm just thankful I have time to live, not just die, and I'm 47!
Starting to live and grow at 30, with 2/3's your life to live is better than continuing with THE LIE! AS Mr Spock says "Live long and prosper"...you really do have the rest of your life in front of you and many great times ahead.
