HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHELL ......... ENJOY KEEP HIM BUSY, DIGI

Laleo would love to see Grizzly Man and have popcorn but I think I missed it, have been dealing with the weather lately ...... sorry ....... Love popcorn and a good movie, can you make a second viewing? As far as James Frey goes ......... he is still in the top 5 of Amazon book sales and his other book stated the top 20. So a disclaimer is put in the books ....... he is still making money, so is his publisher. Oprah has cleared herself by confronting him on national television ....... Like I said earlier he was cleansed of Drugs and Alcohol but he never claimed to be clean of lying. He is making money of those embellishments ....... his ego won't be hurt to bad with all that money in his pocket and he will continue to write and make more money. People are purchasing the books just to read about the bad boy character he portrayed himself as. People find it intriguing. The book for reading sake was a good book. It was a good read. I liked the book and read in less than a day. Readers will purchase it just for the rush of a good read. I am reader and seldom do interesting books really come about. An interesting author who can keep the momentum going is in a category of their own. We will see if Frey can keep up the momentum. Legally I don't think anything will hapen to him, but I may be wrong who knows. Digi

WG, I like your posts and hope you don't leave. But I have left many times my self for periods of time over the years. Its not the point that no one intentionally meant to hurt you but that you were hurt in trying to do something nice. I hurt for you in that. I hope that your hurt will stop one day, and that you remember that there are those who understand and care for you. I enjoy reading your posts and pray that you are feeling OK, in fact better than OK, I hope that you are out playing and doing something fun and feeling great and that your heart is at peace. Don't you dare give up a tear over this, its not worth your precious tears. You are a wonderful woman who has been a blessing in my life for many many reads here. I hope I continue to read your posts and loving heart. Digi

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEMPLELADY I MISS YOU Digi

Laughing ...................................... that is histerical. My gut muscles have been wrenched and I will regain my breath eventually. Digi

Uhiyo sp? George I am waiting for you to play catch up .......... I am already on Mt. Fuji ............. Sike You left without me ............ you really did ................... take lots of pics from up on top of Fuji for me and have a great time. Check out the price of a real Kimono for me if you get the chance ......... last time I checked they were in the thousands of dollars range ......... for a real one ....... I think they still sell the touristy cotton ones for much less. Although come to think of it you probably won't be looking at kimonos in that fashion anyway LOL. Have Fun, Digi

Cool its an interesting question that you pose here, causes one to think of their own inner self. I did think and regardless of what I once would have answered off the top of my head I think differently now. For me ...... I can get upset with a person ...... but I don't stay upset with just any one person, its not available because they have no bearing on my life in particular and I can easily let misunderstandings go. I think being angry is unhealthy and I try not to go there but if I do get angry its impossible not to recognize and I do all I can to remain calm. The only people who can really make me angry or mad are those closest to me ... because it is them I care for most, love dearly and know the most about. Because my family members lives are open to me, I know that sometimes I want to step in and make sure my grown children still do what I wish, but I have to remember they are grown. Well at least the law states that 2 out of 3 of them are LOL. The other is still home under parental control and will be for another 5 plus years Thank God. Being mad and hate aren't the same thing. I don't really think it is in me to hate anyone, for that is not the desire of my heart at all. I think that Hate would simply take up to much energy in one and drain them into a state of nothingness if there is such a thing. I have gone through to much in my life to allow the world to reduce me to a state of nothingness. I now pray for those who have hurt me and leave it to God and do my best to leave anger out of the equation ......... Digi

That billboard cost quite a bit of money. There was so much involved in it. Jimextwi did coordinate it. There had to be an artist found, monies collected the site rental etc.... and then ........ The website url was defaced ............... O man Paw that brings back memories ....... I remember everyone writing out there checks and sending them off to get everything payed for, big project .......... but it was done ........ who knows about tangible results or not ............... your right Paw ...... no proven fact...... but it was great at the moment ....... it was suppose to try to help the corps and staff who were there and wanting to leave ......... to let them know there was aid out there................ We still had our big house in the city then with room for another family if they needed help. The billboard held high hopes to aid many on there exodus from twi for many of us. Those were the days my friends ............ Digi

Laleo ...... Maure would call the hospital or my hubby would print out the thread from GScafe back in those days and it blessed me much. We have a hard copy in storage of it .. Of course much of my life is in storages seeing as we are building these days. Yes it has been 5 years since that particular event amazing, but it took a good 2-3 years to heal from it. Regarding the coupe in Alaska and that documentary I find it far more interesting than Frey. Seeing as I am an Alaskan and that was no oridinary couple who were out for a picnic. They were well established in the ways of the wilderness here and they didn't even get the opportunity to reach for there gun. That particular couple had dinner on the side of the river cleaned up everything .... got back in there Kayak and went on down river a couple of miles to make camp. Did not even sleep where the ate. Very sad story. Frey on the other hand is getting far more attention than I see necessary ........ take it for what it is or isn't and let it go. How it affects ones life individually is really up to the indivdual. I dont see where all this attention is even going or why it is going in reference to Frey. Digi

MaryPoppins, That was absolutely beautiful. When I read your life with your marriage it reminded me of my own. So many similarities. Marriage can be beautiful ...... I thank God daily that I am blessed with a tremendously wonderful caring husband who has as well stuck by my side through sickness and in health. Slept in a recliner chair, in a hospital for a month next to my bed without complaint and took care of me when we got home. Love is out there and marriage can be fantastic. I as well had one bad marriage but I was not willing to throw all of Gods beautiful men away because of one bad apple. I thank God for the beautiful man he sent me way. Digi

Congratulations Abi and Sushi ........................... This is a wonderful wonderful day for you and us and everyone ............... Bless you ................ Love you .................... You guys are great ....................... Digi

Rhino ......... Lord dude you are on a roll with the breast pics .................. Poor Rafs vision is impared yet again ........... Mary Poppins started the Bust pics didn't she ........ Well Rhino I am tossing the Daisy Dukes away ......... back into the box ..... never to be revealed now. You really ought to take the cold shower ........ and give Rafs vision a break. And did you say it would be a quickie ................. oh darling ............ LOL Digi

Well you guys and gals have fun .......... I have been awake all night with a splitting headache so I am going to try to sleep to get rid of it. I am sure someone will come up with the answer by the time I return. Hugs and Kisses ............ Have Fun. Digi

Diazbro .......... Believe me I have kept it in mind ...... like I said earlier it surprised me that I had any sympathy for him .... paraphrasing here. But, I should have said it was for the duration of the reading the book itself because after I gave the book to the library and our discussion was over ..... I never really thought about it again until this thread. When its all said and done he is just another addict who hurt those around him. Who lied and used people to get what he wanted. He sold his books, he's clean ? maybe ........ truth? I doubt it ....... he is probably covered under creative fiction as long as he doesn't open his mouth, but then again he is a bit of a show off so we will see ...... maybe .... ... Digi

Is it "Out of Africa" .........? Horse coming out of the gate ......... Parrots in Africa? .......... Digi OK Not answering me ............... hmmmmmmm "Working Girl" ? Digi
