Krys, I know this was not the reaction you intended, but I have a big smile on my face from your story. I'm not laughing at the fact that you were hurt, but isn't that something we all do? I did things like that on a smaller scale. Just a few days ago I was going to buy a birthday card for my stepfather (Halloween), even though he passed away late last year. I'm sorry for your tears, but your story is just priceless and beautiful. :)

I suspect he'll need to do some laundry to extend his stay a day or two.

I think we have a winner.

IMPORTANT MEETING OF THE SCHOOL Monday, the 24 of October, 6:00 P.M. in the gymnasium of the school Due to the budget cuts, a number of changes will happen. Some of these changes will affect their children. Its attention in this meeting is important. Please, it comes and to demonstrate to his children, their professors, and the administration that you support to him.

Wow. You do appear to be as blissful as anyone I've ever known. :)

I didn't write this, but I wish I had... By xxxxx xxxxxxxx As Hurricane Wilma stalled over the Yucatan, delaying landfall in Florida until Tuesday at the soonest, print journalists struggled to keep readers interested in what the once-threatening storm was not doing.

Can't.

No, Oldies, my comment was not an exaggeration in the slightest. Your celebrated ignorance on these matters is astonishing.

My Spanish isn't great, but altavista gave me enough to work with. REUNIÓN IMPORTANTE DE LA ESCUELA Lunes, el 24 de octubre, 6:00 P.M. en el gimnasio de la escuela Debido a los cortes de presupuesto, un número de cambios ocurrirán. Algunos de estos cambios afectarán a sus niños. Su atención en esta reunión es importante. Por favor, venga y demostrar a sus niños, sus profesores, y la administración que usted le apoya.

Okay, but only because we were told to cheat. Hell and High Water

I don't doubt the commitment of those who stayed. What I doubt is the leadership, and the leadership did run things into the ground: everything you laud them for was ruined at their hands. I don't give them credit for keeping things moving for five years when they could have and should have been moving to this very day. Captain Smith, you did a terrific job getting this ship two-thirds of the way from Britain. Shame about that iceberg thing, eh?

I could say you missed the point, WTH. I could say that the thought that some people are researching solely to discredit VPW is not only ignorant, but outright stupid. But since you've made up your mind on the subject, it wouldn't really matter, would it? Since you don't recognize a joke when you see one, how can I expect you to know what I was saying in that post? I didn't, which is a good thing, because you didn't.

Common ground. I had a feeling there had to be some, somewhere. Good to be on the same side, for once, WTH.

So, there's a chance (a chance, mind you) that all these models will look very different once this thing hits the Yucatan.

Yes. They went back on their word. I blame them.

Let's see: I had Beau. I still have Tarzana (named by her former owner because the cat used to snag her nails on the curtain and swing back and forth). Then I got a cat I named Moses, after the cat in the song by Joshua Kadison. Moses didn't last long: died very quickly, so I replaced him with... Joshua! Because Joshua comes after Moses. I have one more. As you may have guessed, his name is Judge.

Point taken. So, instead of relying on what you claimed to have "studied" biblically, I'll do my own research, as Mark did in finding you were wrong.

Everyone knows Strong's Concordance was put together for the specific intent of discrediting VPW. Strong should have done his own research instead of listening to some anti-VPWites.

He was running those things into the ground! Goodness, you're the kind of guy who'd give E.J. Smith his props for making it 2/3 of the way from Southampton to NYC.

Why would anyone who stayed gossip about Craig worship? Hell- LOOO!!!! As for the little Wierwille idol... QUACK! Hey, buddy, it's a duck! We were told to our faces that if LCM was not the right man to run TWI, then GOD IS STUPID. Those were our choices. A: LCM is the right one for the job. B: God is stupid. No other choices given. You don't find that a tad bit, oh, I don't know, worshipful? Why do I choose the word worshipful? Because their very respect for Almighty God was inextricably intertwined with their respect for LCM. Eliminate the second, and the first evaporates. That's worship right there, buddy. Oh, and lest you think this was the minority opinion of some wacko, the person who told this to us, to our faces, is now vice president of TWI.

Thanks for the extra info, WTH. Worth looking up. Too bad you had to ruin it at the end, but for the record, hearing you tell WordWolf do his own research is a lot like hearing a hooker tell a nun to have a little self-respect.

My bad. Shame, though. You'd have been right to say it.

Profit followed? Are you stoned?
