Starz: Sorry to hear about your findings. Maybe he was just looking, but either way it still sucks.

{{{{{Starz}}}}}

B: Best Christmas moment? I'd have to say getting a nice present from my FWW. It was a ~50 year old piece that my Grandfather gave out as advertising for his feed mill. It had his name and the company bio on it. She had it framed. It was a print of a painting, might have had a calendar on it. It's funny, because just 2 or 3 days ago, I was thinking about my grandfather, and thinking that I never think of him. Pretty cool gift!

How is it that she (NOW) knows me so well, but yet two years ago thought that I didn't love her and had maybe even had and A in order to justify her own? Well, maybe that wasn't it, but it sucks to have to go through this to have a better M.

Idiots!!!!

OK By the time this posts it won't be Christmas, but....Merry Christmas!

First, my worst two moments this year: having to watch my boys watch their sisters open the presents--knowing full well they weren't getting anything. Second: At my sister's house during dessert, looking up and seeing a cery young Dad pic staring at me.

Two best? This morning (after opening up gifts) having breakfast with the whole gang. Second: tonight--just me and the girls. Very warm fuzzy feeling. And NOT taking the moments for granted.

Anyhoo...very tired...long day...

YL--what did you get?!?!?!?!?

{{{{starz}}}}
{{{{robby}}}}

And everyone else, too! (You too JU!!!)

See ya'll later! (And all please stay safe travelling!)

Sorry thisn is just a little Boxing Day VENT!!

Aussie is in a lot of pain today.
No not anything to do with the A or our relationship at all its his right leg which was injured in Iraq.

Looks discoloured and swollen but he’s so stubborn. Won't make appointment to see a doc, keeps walking on it, jumping on it- eg over the fence when he’s restless & walks round & around the house .

Mandy - my sis- tried to get him to let her have a look at it, she said it doesn’t look the right shape but he wouldn’t let her at all. Said it would be ok. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

And I hope he comes here & read's this!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

FINALLY got him to take some Ibuprofen - 1000mg dose - should have been enough to knock an elephant down, but no he’s walking or limping at least around with me looking daggers at him, he’s just oblivious to the worry his kids or I or the rest of the family have for him!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGhhhhh freaking ******* stubborn ******
******* man!!!

There, NOW I feel better and he's agreed to sit down & watch cricket for a few hours with his leg up.

Robby: LMAO. I think that same thought everytime I see that stupid UPS commercial. Sorry Brown.

Rah, rah, sis, boom, bah. We love Brown!
Well, that didn't rhyme and I have no rhythm, but then I'm not the cheerleader.

Good morning all! Have a great post Christmas day!

" Hey John!!

Welcome to Idiotville!!

I am the Mayor!!

Are you joining or just passing through?

If you're staying, GET A JOB!!

And name three non-A Idiot things you have done in your life!!

Shuffleboard? Great!! You can be our new event coordinator!! "


Well, I was just passing through, but looks like a job fell on me. lol

Three non A idiot thing I have done in my life?? Only 3?? Wow thats easy.

Falling out of perfectly good airplanes. ( Hey, had to get more money out of Uncle Sam somehow. )

When the cop lets you go because he thinks you are to small to have been controlling the motorcycle at the speeds he clocked you at DONT PULL A WHEELIE AS YOU LEAVE!!!!!!

I walk into burning buildings for a living. Need I say more. ( Why would anyone in their right mind walk into a burning building with a bottle of compressed air on their back? )

Ok, nice try but I’m going to take exception to 2 of your items.

While the word falling is intriguing when it comes to getting out of airplanes I’m pretty sure you meant jumping. I did this in the Marines and as a civilian, GREAT RUSH!! #1 only counts if you’ve done it more than once without a parachute!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

#2, LMAO. This one counts!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

#3 – You’re a fireman. Firefighters are considered brave for what they do for others so therefore this does not count either!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Try again!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Ok, I didnt even have the guts to try it once without a chute.

I was HALO qualified. We are doign a jump at Hunter Army Airfield, and the AF load master that was flying with us was retiring. My new company commander had just taken command after spending 3 years at this little village at Bragg that the governtment will deny is there while trying to recruit for it.

The load master was giving us all sorts of crap since he was retiring. Commander pulled me aside and we hatched a plan for revenge. We were the last two out of the craft, stood up side by side each hooked and arm through the load masters arms and ran down the ramp. As we hit the end of the ramp I dropped my ruck and hooked a rescue belt to the LMs LBE and took him for a ride he will never forget. Poor [censored] wet himself, company commander and I lost 1/3 months pay for 3 months, but it was worth it!!

There could have been a loss of rank but battilion commander was laughing so hard he said loss pay was enough!!

a town not far from where I grew up has alot of limestone cliffs. Also has a railroad bridge over a river. the bridge is about 145 feet above the water.

I was 16 years old. My best friend and I decided we were going to go climbing on the cliffs. Well, we decided that we were going to rapel off the bridge also. Its posted no trespassing but we still tied off and dropped. about half way down we were spotted by the police. We hung there for over an hour and a half trying to wait them out. Guess who won??

Ok, as far as I am concerned, that is truly idiotic. You're in. However, if you become activities director, please understand I do not jump from flying things or climb rocks or cliffs. Just not my thing.

I will, however, provide hot food for when you get down. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Good morning, Robby. IB woke up in a foul mood and will barely speak today. I moved his blanket. Wow. Stone me for sure. I was cleaning up for Christmas and moved it from the couch. Every day's a new world. Up and down, up and down. Running away from home is looking tempting. But not very much.

Well, must get ready for Sunday School. Starting a new study on the lives of the Apostles. See you guys this afternoon, maybe.

Everyone should try jumping out of an airplane at least once. I took my mom for a tamdom jump on her 70th birthday.

And you also like HALO jumps, & doing stupid things like that ..Aussie is going to like you a lot...
tell me John, do you also pretend you aren't hurt when you are and go do things you shouldn't with injuries anyway??
Don't listen when he asks you if you'd like to have a career full of adventure and travel, you've been there done that by the sounds of it so just say no!! (Unless you have a thing for hot sandy deserts of course) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

MEN <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> !!!!

Good morning I-ville!!

Welcome John!

I took my mom for a tamdom jump on her 70th birthday.</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">OK OK--You already gave us three things!

Starz, hang in there hon. I don't know your complete sit (although I don't know how much more we all need) which is my point: maybe time for a different plan. He's being a total pri@k. Sorry for the harshness of words, but he is what he's doing. Anyway, know that we will be here for you!!!!

RH & Robby--brown's right here--I will "let" her get on--gotta go to TRU to exchange broken parts to the Disney nisey kitchen (or whatever.) Very disappointing when you spend that much money for really flimsy plastic. Oh well.

ff--thanks for the continued support! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> (Robby: <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> )

f-again--how'd it go yesterday?

AW--gotta tell a2 to give me some stamina advice! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

OK....Off to the crazy stores--again. Wish me luck!
