I was in Houston for Alica back in 83. It wasn't any fun. I had a customer call this morning saying they wanted to go ahead and fix a big a/c unit because they needed the space for evacuees. The compressor is in Houston of all places. The guy said they were closed but he hadn't left because the freeways were so packed that they were at a stand still. Listen to the news and they talk about the lines of cars stranded along the highways where they ran out of gas. I live 275 miles west of Houston. Every hotel/motel has been full for two days already. RV's are everywhere. Gas is running low because everyone is in panic mode. Forget water or batteries. The most we'll get is maybe tropical storm winds.

I am going to go home and get my SO to drink about 10 gallons right now.

LMAOROTF. Way to funny until I pay my gas bill. Back in 2001 bussiness was down so I sold that 1-ton crew cab truck and went back to a 1/2-ton. Boy am I glad. Only problem is I still have 5 trucks. Gas bill last month was $1,400.00. It use to be $600.00

Ya'll are a bunch of wimps. I fell down and broke 4 bones. I was at work the next day. You know I am one of those boses that drives everyone crazy. But I will admit that I found that going to work feeling like that was a mistake. I gave myself the next two weeks off. There was the time I called in because a tornado took the roof off my house. But the guy who was mad about that was my neighbor. Seems he didn't like the fact that my roof landed on his house.

Hills Bro here is where you and I part company. I have been in the air conditioning bizz since Sept 12, 1972. Duct cleaning is the biggist farce that come down the pick in 50 years. I use the same example for everyone. If you drive a dirty car down the road, does the dirt come off? The answer is no. Once dust settles in the duct does it ever come out? The answer is no unless you disturb it. We have had to repair several duct system over the years that duct cleaners mess up. One time we were working at a map making plant that had just spent $8000 on duct cleaning. I took the manager up on the roof. Took a panel off an a/c unit and aid look down. There were piles of dirt in the duct. I have yet to see a duct cleaning system that really cleans the duct properly without damaging it. Let the flames begin now.

I know I have enough ammo. On the news this morning was a little story I believe they said from Missippi. A guy with a knife walked up to a guy and said I hear you have a generator. The man replyed would you like to see my gun also. The conversation ended there with the generator owner retaining ownership. If you don't have a gun go out and buy at least a shotgun.

I know I don't live in Alaska. But if I did I'd take a week off and go hunting and fishing and then leave all the guts on the door step of the local environental office. My sister use to manage reservations for Midway Island out in the Pacific. The government put so many restrictions on the fishing that it stopped all the fishing. Well that is all the U.S. fishing. They finally closed down everything to the piont that it closed the airport.

I haven't been following this because I've been working hard. Today. Spent all afternoon working with Texas Baptist Men building a kitchen to feed the thousands brought to San Antonio. You need to quit watching the news and start helping. The people I saw didn't look like the people on TV. They were nice healthy and caring. They were helping each other, orderly, and trying to get on their feet. We were hot and sweating and happy that we had our own beds to go home to and our own jobs. They don't have a home, or a house, or a job. The people of San Antonio were lined up dropping off water' food' cloths bedding. Yes some was old. A lot was brand new, bought to give away.

I keep going back and looking at the results of this pole. Less than half of the people profess Christ today. That shows that Christ Jesus had very little to do with TWI.
-
Just remember that the vast majority of people who are still in are nice. Also remember. The corporate culture that is there comes from the people. When the members don't like whats happining the culture changes or dies.

See your local Dentist to prevent this happinning to you. or I like my steak raw and preferably still breathing.

Ok a 50 I hurt. Its not in my mind its my knee's and feet. I reffed too many soccer games and learned to late that I shouln't wear cleats. Its bad when the ref is carried off the field. My Dad's feet hurt him his whole life. Well tha acorn didn't fall far from the tree. My feet hurt all the time. So if you feel old there is a reason. YOUR GETTING OLD. Just some people age quicker than others. I still can outwork some of the young bucks. I work smarter.

To tell the honest truth I think I faked it with the SIT. There is no way in that class you are going to jump into SIT. I believe there really is SIT. I also believe that there are some people who truely SIT in TWI. I also believe that the majority are faking it or just making ignorant noise and to dumb to recognize the fact. By the way I was born again before the class and thats one reason why I was out in four years.
-
Thirty years ago this week I moved to Houston and my best friend took me to a Bible study. I thought it was great. I especialy liked this kissing bit with the pretty girls. I wasn't to sure about the SIT. Took me a few years before I figured it all out.

Rascal I now understand what you arew saying. Personaly I wouldn't mind doing a drive by on HQ. The only reason some people are still alive is because its against the law to kill them.
-
Rascal I'm not thanking God for anything about twi. I'm thanking God for his mercy and grace for me and maybe you. Did you ever witness to someone and then bring them into the fellowship.
-
The problems you had in twi are not from God. So much of what came out is not from God. That being said "Praise God". God is worthy of all our praise. TWI is not worthy of any praise. I don't want to be in their shoes. Praise God for his mersy because I need it.

Two comments. #1. Do you want to go into bussiniss with this guy. One boss is always better. #2. Get a Lawyer. I bought a second bussiniss to compliment the first. Turned out the guy was trying to screw as many people as he could on his way out of town. $500 to lawyer saved me about $10,000.

My sugjestion is to go with the B & M Towing and work up a logo using BMT. A professional logo goes a long way in gaining peoples trust. Also a name that is eaily remembered is a bid plus. Its easy to remember a BMT. Especialy if you like them.

Can I come and help. I live in Kerr County in Texas. Some one else here posted an artical about a funeral here where the people lined the streets for the funeral. That has happened twice now. We support the millitary and our soldiers.

Men hear what women say. We by reflex don't use the energy required to comprehend because we have learned that all we will hear is gripping and how we have done it wrong again. So its better for her to be mad because we wern't listing than to be madder because we did hear.

When the base quit growing(fill in any reason you want), the leadership kept growing. You move good people out of jobs to put in the "trained" and the trained have no idea of what they are doing. TWI is a grand pyramid scam that releyed on believers taking more and more classes then going into the corps. If no one is left on the bottom or the top just gets to big it all collapese into itself. Planned self distruction. Lets also not forget that if you wern't the favorite foot kisser you were chewed out or kicked out.

What is worship to me. Well first of all it doesnt always happen at church. Worship is when I connect with God. It happens somtimes when I pray, sometimes when I study, somtimes when I sing. It always happens when I am thinking about God and me and am willing to change. I was in Mexico two years ago on a mission trip. After going into several homes and talking with people I went back to the hotel for a break. I naturaly went into a prayer time that lasted several hours. Its neat when you talk with God.
