    The Flu

    i have "something", I havent been to the doctor but all the classic flu symptoms. I just want to sleep all the time. Groggy, achy, fever, upset stomach, dont want to eat...Its been going on for about a week, Ive been home for the last few days riding it out I know all the town schools are issuing warnings
  2. Lee was amazing--Aside from having phenomenal stuff, I cant remember anyone being that cool in a World Series opener. ...as if he was in the backyard playing with the kids.... I did enjoy seeing Pedro even though Fox beat the story to death. I didnt enjoy seeing Charlie Manuel channeling Grady Little and leaving him in one inning too many though when it was still a one run game.. IMO these long layoffs should cease--I dont know if that effects the hitters more than the pitchers but although there has been great pitching the hitters still look a little off to me. Hopefully they'll catch up and there'll be a back and forth 9-8 heartstopper in here somewhere. So far so good, although I have to admit I was secretly hoping to see the Phils go up 2-0, just to watch Yankee fans sweat :P Playing in Philly will be tough--Hope you're not munching on your couch quite yet There's still a ways to go
  3. Thats pretty much the only way to go... ...he is God on earth. ....Im not much of a biblethumper, in fact Im not one at all but I just cant resist the obvious .....Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight....

    Song of the moment

    Thanks for reposting that Dave-If no one has figured it out I am a huge Harvey Reid fan..All of his stuff is always high quality and enjoyable to listen to. is a nice tasteful version of an old standard "Danny Boy"His Website meanwhile---- Heres something you may not hear everyday Dropped Thumb Clawhammer Slide Dulcimer Stick I have one of these things, been picking it this morning--it is a blast to play <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
  5. Its been cold, rainy and miserable all day-hopefully they'll get this one in. It looks like its moving out
  6. Glad you enjoyed it-send me some of that LA sunshine! Its getting gray and cold... If I had my way I'd hibernate like a bear after the series and wake up on opening day. 500K a month? ....ah Hollywood..... But more importantly... who gets custody of Manny? These messy divorces never think about the kids..... or the childlike
  7. I have no idea which way this one will go. Being NY and Philadelphia my only prediction is that there will be some world class brawls in the bleachers
  8. Ironic choice for a bumpersticker. Truth seems to be the thing that they are the most afraid of...
  9. I live in Great Barrington (still a great little town). Peter last I heard is still "in" and running something for TWI in Arkansas. The other brothers Newey, Phil and Larry are still here. Phil is a timberframer. Larry who had a leather shop that was a TWI hub in the 70's, is a jack of all trades and is still very enthusiastic about all things God

    Church in the bar

    I suppose I wouldnt mind having a beer.... the next step is already happening... Remember the time Jesus body slammed that downtrodden leper who was just looking for a cool drink of water ? Harvest Church in Winterville Georgia has taken up providing "Ultimate Christian Wrestling" in its church to remind you.. Story LINK. Jesus may have died for you but he sure could have put you in a headlock and hit you with a folding chair if he wanted.... each to his own but this is a little much for me.. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
  11. The seasons not over for me. Im watching (hence the World Series scene from Cuckoos Nest back a few posts). The playoffs have been interesting so far, some good games. I was hoping that the ALCS would go 7 to add some drama but after the Angels imploded in the 8th that wasn't going to happen. It should be a good series, hopefully there will be some good weather and not the miserable cold and rain that has been intermittent here in the East. Its tough to call this one. The Yanks vs the defending Champs, Two great hitting teams. Lee vs Sabathia, former teammates and the last 2 Cy Young Winners in the opener. The series the potential to be a real battle. In my mind I'd love to see it go 7, plus as a sidelight I'm hoping I get to see Pedro Martinez pitch against the Yanks again. Its the Fall Classic--no matter what Im in. and--- I'll agree with you on the announcing. Ive probably devoted a 100 posts on this thread to being ticked off at Playoff announcing over the years (epecially when the Sox were in--remember when they spent 2 innings talking about ARod opting out of his contract while the Red Sox were winning the final game against Colorado in '07 --I was ready to throw something through the TV)) I don't have as much of a stake in it this year so it doesnt seem quite so bad. Ive tried all sorts of alternatives if it really bothers me. Listening to the radio or on the internet with the TV down might help you out if it gets too obnoxious to take--and sometimes it does. Good Luck Hiway--enjoy it..As for me I just want a good series and will follow the stories as they develop
  12. Exactly. Thats the whole fallacy that they carried over from TWI and why it had to cave in. i.e.--SomeONE has to be THE Mog in their bizarre interpretation of Christianity The letters are laced with how outstanding his "ministry" is, how it is unique and like no other, how many lives HE has touched etc etc..blah blah blah until I want to puke. Its an adventure in extreme egotism. If Lynn has any 'gift' at all--Its the gift of gab ( also known as not knowing when to shut up) plus he thinks he is funny (no), insightful (not)-so this somehow makes him extraordinary and irreplaceable in the eyes of God. He needs to come down off his high and mighty throne and deal with life like the rest of us and realize that he is not as extraordinary as he pretends to be but pretty regular just a helluva lot noisier. Its hard to believe after 40 years he is still playing this game If he needs a new job He would make an excellent ShamWow pitchman
  13. That'd be perfect..... Ive been hoping they'd "just shut up and go away" for a long long time
  14. Its time for one of my all time favorite movie scenes: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&"'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&"'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&"'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAtFX_fxZwg
  15. Thanks for the info Dave--It may just break my heart( ) but I'll have to pass this time. Do they run these every week? Thats a pretty good cash cow they have going. i wonder how many people go to these things 20? 30? 50? 100? Recycle a few teachings, throw em a few burgers and depending on how many people go they come out 4, 6, 10,or 20K ahead.. Not a bad take for a weekend, plus they get the whole weekend to promote all their other sh!t. Im so tired of this stupid crap most importantly----Good luck with your Dad Dave-he'll be in my prayers...and...Keep pickin'...and darn it--post some of your music one of these days
  16. Good One Geisha ------------- Then the Lord said unto me. The prophets prophecy lies in my name: I sent them not,neither have I commanded them,neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and athing of nought, and the deceit of their heart. Jeremiah 14:14 ---------- Jer 23 is another good chapter
  17. It appears so, or we certainly wouldnt be seeing a letter like that. So the thing built on personalities and foundations of sand fell apart... well Duh, who couldnt see that coming? ---verily verily they have their reward
  18. Key phrase highlighted. It is a good idea, a great idea but the change would be pretty darn drastic. No severance package, no presidency, no selling and promoting his stuff, no skuffling for your attention---no "chief seats in the synagogue" or "being recognized by men". I dont see it happening, he would actually have to care about other people, but that is up to him You're kinder, gentler, wiser than I am Geisha--I just want him to go away, Im tired of his pseudochristianity, the endless drama and whining and his attempts to sell me his stuff and how great he is. ---Enough already-- Do Christian Aid, or go back to the hole you crawled out of, or do anything, but whatever it is -- just do it.. At this point I really dont care what the self-propelled Great One does but please quit blathering for once
  19. Enough of the endless drama--go away already go to church, get a job, retire, do something, do anything. do nothing But stop the egomaniacal rantings and just stfu
  20. I was never in the Corps but I had a few corps people tell me to read "Competent to Counsel" as it were some great corps revelation. I think it was one of the reasons they thought they were qualified and experts to stick their nose in your business

    Im not sure --I may have posted this before--------I still like it

    I dont know if I have the same one or not ---The Oriental one who was having a fling with Jimmy and always losing her underwear? I dont know if she was killed or not (cant remember), she was spying on NCIS and had some sister that was being held by someone that was manipulating her to do it. I think they got to the bottom of it and she transferred out (or something) They already did that one Tony didnt know she was a he and was very attracted to her ...I wont spoil the episode in case you get it in reruns--- but it was hilarious. The look on Tony's face when he found out was priceless..It was in the Kate years somewhere...... Is McGee due for another book yet? Who gets love this year? They seem to do a round robin on that...Gibbs with the woman colonel, Tony, Abby, even Ziva with the jogger...I think Mcgee is due
  23. Sounds like an updated Uncle Harry Day for the new century will be happening soon. This one is even burning bibles....

    I have the wrong name for Salim. I was thinking of the terrorist in North Africa that was addicted to Caf-Pow who was holding Ziva all summer. His question were all about NCIS not Mossad. He is dead now too, but why his prediliction with NCIS? There is something going on in there with an AlQaeda tie.... I had forgotten about that --and to think she shot her own half-brother to do it. There is no end to where Eli David will go-- There are alot of complex storylines going on... they might have to back off with something a little more lighthearted (Abby falling in love with another midget? Mrs Mallard making another appearance? Tony investigating a shemale killer?) for an episode Where the heck is Jimmy Palmer?

    O hell no! Gibbs said Eli David was 'dirty', it sounded like he meant more than being abad father because he set up Ziva. Im curious what he meant by that-Gibbs doesnt throw words around lightly------There could be some intense scene coming up someday with Eli, Gibbs and Ziva, maybe Vance--if they keep on the Ziva storyline Do we know why Salim was so interested in NCIS and not Mossad? Was that ever explained?
