LG is spot on. I always thought Miracle Whip was only sold in the French Quater of New Orleans.....

Potato you are funny as all get out - keep tossing it out there.

I'm not trying to ding on anyone Rhino. I just thought I'd add my attempt at humor - except that mine tends to be on the very cynical side. Didn't mean to offend you.

Oh my...are we going to sqabble over here like on the CES forums? It's not very fun over there right now and frankly I don't understand all of its import. They're all fighting and expressing their anger so rudely over there. Sorry - couldn't resist. Well no I guess I am not sorry - just laughing...

I've miles of files of your forefathers fruit...and NOW to suit my great computer...you're magnetic ink. I'more that that at least I think I must be. There you go man..keep as cool as you can...face piles of trials with smiles. It riles them to believe that you percieve the web they weave.....and keep on thinking free Yes Groucho - a perfect metaphor....

LG, I don't know you so please forgive me if I am clumsy with my words. If you want to just yak and talk I'll be glad to give you an IM address, a cell phone, whatever gives you a place to just talk. I'll listen to whatever you want and most certainly will not yak at you about my belief system which doesn't fit too well in most places anyway. I know TheEvan well - and if you are someone he looks up to then I am sure I look up to you as well. But regardless of TheEvan the promise still holds. If you want my contact info - you got it - 24/7 man. I'll be listening if ya want or need - just PM me. Best, RumRunner

Yep it was Wayne Green and I'm pretty sure you got his call right. He was a big2, 5 and 80m geek. I never got my license. I worked in the computer lab. Glad you looked around to "find the devil" LOLOL and instead you found HAM radio. See you around the forums I need to go get entertained some more in that whack job CES thread

Perfect Waysider - havent thought of that in years - thank

Two small asides if you dont mind then I'll get back to topic....reading Mr Hammernoi's posts made me think of the 70's and TWI Ham man - I used to work for 73 Magazine if that rings a bell A couple of years ago a sci-fi fantasy movie came out called "Underworld" Cheesy plot about vampires fighting wierwolves. But there was a lot of action in it for the teenage boys and there were a couple of hot babes to make sure the dads would bring the kids to see it. The head vampire was phenomenally evil, bloody - really the eiptome of evil - nicely done. His name was Victor. And the thought of Victor fighting Wierwolves (Wierwilles) struck me as very funny. OK back to topic - yes the 70's sucked and so did the 80's. I have a few fond memories but not of TWI - only of some very good people I met. I left in 87 - and never looked back. Too many things like Mr Hammernoi described. Although I remember smoking some rockin' stuff at the 75 ROA....

He has to be real. North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) tracks him every year. See the following links. The first is the splash page and the second is how they track santa with search radars and satellites. For some reason boys (and some of us who have no intention of growing up) love this site. http://www.noradsanta.org/index.php http://www.noradsanta.org/en/how_we_do_it.php

Don't forget a bottle of good scotch!

Thanks Belle. That just got forwarded to about a million people.

Welll...I guess I am the evil one here. I was out two years before my first child was born...so Santa and the tooth fairy were part of my kids' childhood. I read them stories like "Polar Express" and such (BTW the book is much better than the movie - as usual). We put out cookies and milk at fireplace for Santa and left some carrots and apples out for the reindeer. And lo and behold the empty stockings were full in the morning. And to make me even worse I let them hold on to their beliefs until they each figured it out on their own. Those were fun years.

Groucho - didn't you meant to say...

OK Groucho and DMiller - should we ask Paw to rename this topic as "ONLY SICKOS POST HERE?"

OK OK - yes in poor taste - but.... I have never shown good taste on GSC...if you have audio enjoy the attachment

I'm dying laughing over here. Thanks Belle.

This thread absolutely mystifies me! The lack of compassion is really quiet beyond me. I haven't posted in a while but this thread stirred some thoughts. So instead of talking about alcoholism I will just try and draw some parallels and hope they make sense to Cman, Dmilller and a few others. I had a disease. Not alchoholism, avascular necrosis. That means the bones in my hips died. For 15 years I was in pain 24/7 and I mean 24/7. I couldn't sleep. I was so nauseous from the pain I couldnt eat right. And as a single parent my kids had to get my slacks and socks on every morning - which they did with never a complaint - even though I knew it was a burden for them. When I got scheduled for hip replacement - both within 5 days which is rare - I got nothing but support from the folks at GSC. People I have never met except here prayed for me. AND... congratulated me on the success. No one told me the pain was all in my mind. No one told me I was not diseased. No one shot down a hospital as an organization that helps...AND OH YES... they have a post of therapy program that had LOTS of steps - more than twelve. And yes I think it was an accomplishment and achievement to just get out of bed during those first days and walk over to take a leak. AND when I posted that I could get my jeans on I was congratulated for an ACCOMPLISHMENT...AND when I posted that I got my socks on myself for the first time in many years I was again congratulated for an ACCOMPLISMENT. Everyone was supportive here...period. So this lack of support and compassion in this thread I find disturbing. It is the public myths about drug dependancy whether it be alcohol or some other that I find disturbing. "I don't have this problem so you don't either." Kinda of thinking which I abhor. No one did that to me on GSC so WHY in this thread? Cman, Dmiller and others - I ABSOF(CKLINGLUTELY congratulate you on your ACCOMPLISTMENT AND ACHIEVMENT. I understand the dread of having to get out of bed and stand up, go take a shower, push the clutch in at every light. You understand those same dreads in a different way - but it is similar - having to face another day. And oh yes - it is still one day at a time for me and will be for another 9 months or so...so I understand that too. And again I congratulate you all. I apologize if this thread sounded like it was about me. It was meant to be about the great achievements of those who have posted about being in recovery - and being honest - and trying to draw some parallels in my healing process But most of all it was about being disturbed at the lack of compassion on this thread while seeing so much compassion in other threads. Flame away...my hips are titanium and space shuttle ceramic - you ain't got flames hot enough for that. Oh and an edited PS - I found it ironic that once I posted that this thread came up right next to GSC - people helping people.

Been in batch mode with two kids for 5 years George - tried most of them and can't tell the difference so I buy whats on sale... I'm cheap

You use an '06 or .308 in Alaska Jonny? You can safely ignore the PETA posts - they break more laws than most politicians....

Dmiller - follow the link below - fat free pizza. I have nott tried any of the recipes but I looked at a few and some sound pretty decent. Best wishes too your client with the issues. http://www.fatfree.com/recipes/pizza/

OK - which ones apply to you - I'ved edited the list for the ones (I think) apply to me - this ought to be fun

I hate 'em Belle. Ever think about what something the size of a dust spec will do to a spacecraft when it colldes at 100,000 miles an hour? Lot's of satellites get put into "safe mode" during this time.

Seed holes in the tee shirts excie?
