All In The Family? The "little girl" part sounds like Archie Bunker talking to Gloria.

HCW--------Thanks for putting into words what I was thinking(OK,not the part about the day job). Sometimes it's like watching an old home movie and seeing yourself do something you really wish the camera had not captured. But then again you think to yourself: Maybe my kids will see this and recognize the folly. If they benefit from it, it will have been worth the embarrassment.

TWI must have surely followed some sound doctrine in the early days. Otherwise, people would have heard the shpiel and said"fugetaboutit". I personally know people who, having met in TWI over 30 years ago, remain friends to this day. The problem is, the doctrines not only changed, some took on an entirely opposing meaning. How else can we explain how a ministry that taught we could face any adversity as long as God was with us to a ministry that was afraid something terrible might happen in a cake decorating class(see previous thread involving this subject) unless two believers were present at all times? How could a ministry go from teaching that it was needless to be anxious about tomorrow to one that required elaborate,in-depth explainations for every minute of the day,lest the Devil seize the moment? Speaking only for myself, I find fault in the inconsistancy and wavering of TWI "doctrine". If only one "innie" reading these posts is able to piece together what has really happened and continues to happen, That in itself should explain why we criticize TWI doctrine.

All I know is, I don't ever want to see "edited posthumously" at the bottom of one of my own posts.

"Heavy",I think, was a product of Iron Butterfly but the tune still evades me. Inna Gadda Da Vida was one of those tunes that broke the "3 minute rule", along with Light My Fire by The Doors.

I haven't a clue, but when I see the answer I'll probably go

Q. Why did the chicken cross the road? A. To prove to the possum that it COULD be done! (Me too on the "couldn't resist" thing.)

Wasway-------Don't forget to give her your brand. T. Strange----One of my favorites too.(Even though it has no bongos ) NEXT!!!

Pssst--------Don't drink the milk. It's spoiled!

Well said, Polar Bear.

Friends---------( Ya gotta have 'em) At least that's what The Divine Miss M (Bette Mittler) says. Above the hills, higher than eagles we're gliding Suspended in the sky Over the hill, straight for the sun we were riding. My eyes filled with light behind those black walls. Below was a bottomless canyon. Floating with no sound, ghosts far below seemed to be suddenly rising, exploding all around.

Thank you for the friendly advise, Wasway. :)

Some friends of mine wanted to bet me they knew this one. HMMMMM------To bet or not to bet.

Steve Allen Show?

HMMMM!-------Could those 's be some sort of clue?

NLL-------Many years ago I had a friend who talked frequently about suicide.I tried to help him in all sorts of ways. I helped him with housing. I helped him with car problems. I helped him get a job when he got out of the hospital. Yes, I even gave him "the word" as best I knew it. I, too, told him death was not what God wanted for him. Ultimately,though, the decision was his alone to make and he chose to end his own life. I was the one who found him. For a long time I asked myself all sorts of questions like: "What if I had said this?' or "What if I had done that?"or "Why didn't other people try to help more than they did?" It is difficult to absolve ourselves of blame. Much like a scar that becomes less and less noticable with passing time, the emotional scar will fade somewhat also with passing time but never completely disappear. Don't be too hard on yourself or others who may have known what was going on. There is likely not much you could have done to change the outcome short of possibly delaying the inevidable. You will have good days,you will have bad days and you will have some days that seem like a bad dream. Through it all, God will be right there with you if for nothing else, to lend an understanding ear. Dn't be afraid to let others help you. It helps THEM to help YOU. Praying for you.

dmiller----"Where is signature?" Look to the extreme right in the picture(Just below the tuning peg for high E)

I just got my copy of BLUES REVUE and thought this might be of some interest. They are having a free drawing to give away an autographed Buddy Guy Strat. You can enter online at www.bluesrevue.com. Scroll down to the picture of Johnny Lang and click. The odds are probably somewhere in outer space but it's free and somebody has to win.

I listened to this one at work the other day. I'm going to step aside and let someone else in on it.

For yea verily, it came to pass in a time long forgotten and in a place never seen by many that a gathering of upstarts from the tribe of ---------Firesign Theater----- did indeed climb aboard a wonderous time machine and travel into the future. Those who have ears to hear can still,to this very day, hear them proclaim for all the world to hear:"I Think We're All Bozos On this Bus." And so here I humbly remain,still--------Waiting For The Electrician(Or Someone Like Him) Sincerely George Tirebiter

Borat I can only text so the next one is up for grabs(Provided my guess is correct.)

The price you paid for your riches and fame Was it all a strange game? You're a little insane. The money that came and the public acclaim Don't forget what you are. I'll be away today. If you get it go ahead and post. Bonus clue: Not all guitars have six strings!

My Dear Mr. Bailey I must confess, I was put up to that post by my dear friends Porgy Tirebiter and Mudhead. They are both students (like me!) at More Science High School. My post must remain short as I am running somewhat late for the school pep rally where Principal Poop will be the featured speaker. The theme of the rally is "shoes for industry/shoes for the dead." We all have plenty of school spirit.(I keep mine in the rumble seat.) Well, I'm late for my philatilist club meeting and I haven't yet finished helping Porcelain,the upstairs maid, make the bed. As to the viability of your time machine I must pose the following question: "How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all?" And now I must repair to my place of residence---------firesigntheater.com Sincerely Nick Danger, Private Eye

"anyone named Catheter should go away" Yes,friends, now you really CAN go away in a brand new Bailey Time Machine. It's been fully factory air conditioned in our fully air conditioned factory. Complete with chrome fender dents and an edible steerng column. Now let's take a look inside your new home,shall we? Sincerely, Ralph Spoilsport (Ralph Spoilsport Motors)------------Firesign Theater
