yeah... went to see her last night... man! she moves around pretty good when she doesn't have to drag that IV around! :D--> ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

if we're not invited, we may come and lurk.... :D--> and we were with you guys your final year in rez... and I have a sister in your corps (although I really doubt you'll see her there)... so... how ya gonna stop us? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

well... it's... no deal! so... who's getting vlad guerrero? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

wow... look at those results... ya know CW, your poll choices are a lot like the stages we went through... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

I'm pretty sure he's in the way woods pushing up daisies... either that or he's with Elvis in the mothership... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between... [This message was edited by Tom Strange on January 08, 2004 at 11:07.]

some people just don't get it... if YOU are in a position of authority and stewardship over someone, the proper 'undershepherding' technique is not to succumb to the desires of the flesh... that said, no human is a refrigerator, that's true, but weakness (momentary, one time or many) does not excuse the action(s)... like it or not, and I'm not totally excusing the unbridled lust of someone who may put someone in a position, the ultimate responsibility and therefore blame, lies on the one in power... they should not assume that power if they cannot handle it. that's all I have to say (for a while anyway). ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

thank you all for your kind words... it has been a happening day! ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

oh... and she went home today... did I mention that??? I feel GRRREEEAAAATTTT! (spoken like Tony the Tiger) ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

happening day cknapp! ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

I didn't see "crabby" as a choice... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

meseestorEx... wanna go cruisin' with me and aflakcat in the little red car? we got beer! ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

what's an arc? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

yep... heard and believed that too... here's the deal though... everything else was geared to make derway your whole life and existence... now, once you do see something that was a little off center, you're less likely to object to it, less likely to question it... or if you do, you do so and stay anyway... because to "can the whole thing" meant giving up your life as you knew it... get it? it's awfully hard to just "walk away" from your entire life... very hard... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

what point would that be cynic? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

I was beginning to wonder if you'd been hanging around the food court at the mall a little too much... not that I'd know about that... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

so... aflakcat... tell us what you really think? is the car gassed up? I've got the beers and it's still our birthday week... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

is this where you come to find out about how and why a mirror reflects different ways??? or is that over in the DOGtinal thread as well??? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

JonnyLingosaid: My man Jonny, I'm not going to hammer you for saying something positive about TWI... and heck, about all I know about you is that you've spent a lot of cows to gain many wives... that being said... I kind of have the feelings you described, but I have them towards the PEOPLE that were out witnessing and running fellowships and classes back then... not the organization. It was the PEOPLE who made it something good and blessed because (by and large) the PEOPLE who had nothing but the purest intentions and hearts... the PEOPLE in the twigs, in the field, gave an organization founded on lies and deceit goodness and caused it to be blessed because the PEOPLE were doing the work of God... Not the organization or those who ran it for their own sinful benefit... now... back to our regularly sheduled program... Gawd Bless! ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

OM... perhaps I could agree somewhat (and I do mean somewhat) with your thinking IF IT HADN'T BEEN A SITUATION OF SOMEONE IN A POSITION OF EMOTIONAL INFLUENCE (A SPIRITUAL ADVISOR, LEADER OR WHATEVER) OVER THE PERSON WHO GOT PREGNANT... (not shouting, just emphasizing)... THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE (now there I was raising my voice). IMO you can't just look at it like "two people who made a joint decision"... it just aint like that... there was inlfluence involved emotionally... and it does haunt you... still does... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

well then... who was she lebaneses with? and does that make all lebanese people bad? I'm so confused... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

w..w..w..why thank you all! it is strange to be 50! and for a birthday present, my Mom goes home from the hospital today! thanks again to all of you, I feel ya! aflakcat... can we both fit in the lil red car??? at the same time??? ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

and I'm not especially eager to see simontheloaded's tattoos... nothing personal S, but I'm just not... no dice! ... now if ourseestorEx or niKa want to photograph their tattoos... well... that's another thing all together.... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

hey everybody... the doctors came in and said to my mom... "you have no cancer".... so... after we all quieted down from yelling yippee and jumping up and down screaming and clapping... we asked.... wait a minute... how in the hell do you go from "inoperable, no hope, cancer" to "you have no cancer"???????? well... some of the folks are still skeptical... I think maybe the intercession of the saints had something to do with it... sortof a "God's still in business" kinda thing... hmmmm thanks for all of your help... love to you all... ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

happening day my brother capricorn (oh no! I mentioned an astrological sign!) ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...

ahhh... how sweet is the feeloslip of the saints... (they are still in New Orleans aren't they?)... shipper, if'n you tell them about their wonderful investment in der core, they might get a bit upset that they didn't but that same money in a little upstart led by reverend2Ts mr gates... had they done that, they'd be gozillionaires by now... but... who woodathunk? I thank you all for your continued intercession on behalf of my mom... we still don't "know" anything... we're just kind of being kept on the "doctor's rollercoaster" of learnedness... it makes you want to scream "ay chihuahua!"... but miracles still happen... thanks again... love y'all ... I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between...
