I'd have to agree with you there... except I'd put it at 100%... All of those "leaders" who took the vows to live by that creed would rather take their chances on the whole thing going away quietly or letting folks come to whatever conclusion they wish than EVER come forth publicly (here or their own website)... because at least that way they have some chance of holding onto whatever shred of a 'ministry' they still have... they KNOW that if they ever had to "face the music" that it would all come tumbling down... What they fail to realize is that it already has... it just lasts a little longer this way.

the song that has been stuck in my head for the last couple of weeks is that one in the Jeep commercial where all of the animals come in through the sunroof and start singing with the driver... the wolf eats one of the bird singers and then spits it back out and joins the song... "rock me gently"

I guess they didn't feel ready yet... maybe they will... could be... is that why you keep reading here as well? do you like the Enquirer, too LNM? This is not the Enquirer... a lot of folks who have a vested interest are waiting for replies from these CES leaders.

Travelling to Ohio in August... I imagine 'flashbacks' would be involved... will there be a trauma unit handy? ...that's why we do ours in November!

NYY fans would love Blalock at third and his bat would love that right field porch... but JD would want some high prospects in return... or heck, maybe some cash! Meanwhile the talk here is that we're talking with 'the Gambler' again about a fourth stint...

Frank, you just don't get it... see, in Mike's world... pLaF IS God's Word reissued... it is the God breathed word for this day and time... it IS the source... really.

...or just take rhino's advice and drink straight from the bottle!

you might be onto something there hiway...

Awards come and go... but the ring... the ring abideth forever starman!

yes, this stuff happens... it's not taught that way, but it happens... and it doesn't really matter what brand or level of hotel you stay in... trust me.

... uh... no wait... that was Ed Cassidy I was thinking of...

dangit Raf!! YOU TRICKED ME!!!

no worries... ask him all you want... question him... personally I do it for "sport"... (pretty soon I'll have to repost the synopsis of his beliefs again, it's been a few pages)

MLB.com says it's "Cy Cy Sebathia"... 2007 AL Cy Young Award Voting C.C. Sabathia, CLE 119 Josh Beckett, BOS 86 John Lackey, LAA 36 Fausto Carmona, CLE 7 Eric Bedard, BAL 1 Roy Halladay, TOR 1 Johan Santana, MIN 1 Justin Verlander, DET 1

A telephone book? OH! ...that's right, you live in the Ozarks! (lucky bastage) Is that a hand crank phone on the wall? ...do you have to ask "Sarah" to connect you? P.S. it's time to change the calendar! :)

...that's where I got my copy! It's sitting over there in the bookshelf with all of my other TWI stuff... people see it and are impressed that I know how to read... ...of course, it's right next to Private Parts by Howard Stern.

Cinder... to go along with his own personal PLAF interpretation, Mike also has his own timeline... we've been over it ad nauseum but you've got to remember... it's Mike.

do you mean "we built this city"??? or were you thinking perhaps of the earlier version called "airplane" and "white rabbit"??? OR were you thinking of "somebody to love"???

Correct... For one dollar I'll guess your weight, your height, or your sex. Your turn GSG. for those of you ladies who have not seen it... by all means do! It's a "classic" love story...

I think YOU said you said it (here): We were talking about Joni Mitchell's song and the phrase "we've got to get back to the garden"... and you posted that reply about "them" (which would refer to Joni Mitchell & CSNY)... since that is who we were talking about...

buy it, hold it for a couple of years or so... then... ??? I hear they've run out of land to 'expand' on down there due to the aquifer and such... France? ...'she who must be obeyed' keeps wanting to go there... but she wants to go to Paris, I'd much rather see the countryside...

so... Bumpy... anyone else... wanna get a few folks together to buy a condo there? ...we could probably get a pretty good deal!

did you put those little filter thingies 'in line' on all of the phones/modem... I'm wondering if that could have anything to do with it...

Since (I predict) this will be so easy, I just wanted to get this other exchange in there as well: Male: Now be totally honest. You do have a boyfriend don't you. Female: Kind of Male: I know this is our first date but do you think the next time you make love to your boyfriend you could think of me? Female: Well I haven't made love to him yet. Male: That's too bad. Do you think its possible that someday you could make love with me and think of him? Female: Who knows maybe you and he could make love and you could think of me. Male: I'd be happy to be in there somewhere. Here's the first one again: Lord loves a workin' man; don't trust whitey; see a doctor and get rid of it.

Ohio in August? ...I'm already breaking into a sticky, uncomfortable sweat...
