  1. Information overload
  2. Apples and Wine Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they'reamazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. Now Men.... Men are like a fine wine. They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the living daylights out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.
  3. Now if someone has already passed this thing, it could be difficult to get it passed again, for so it is mostly with things that have been passed. Lewis, I suggest you attempt to get at this thingie very sson for the more often it gets passed the more often it must also be consumed, and as it is, consuming it may be a consderable effort.
  4. I feel a little sorry for you, but now tell us, just how fast were you going and what was the seed limit?

  8. Well now would you lookie that, he does so and even has a personal MONSTER holding up the sign for him,,,,,,,,I'll tell ya, he's got it some made.
  9. Noticed your signature, Ponch & Lilbit. We have a Lilbit in our family. Our youngest, Allison, Elizabeth, when asked her name replied: Allison Lilbit. Being the youngest of 6 she was always the smallest and shortest and still is @ 5'5" as compared to her brothers at 6'4" and 6'2".
  10. Go see a good massage therapist, they should be able to locate the pain area and apply massage to releave an old injury you probably have in that area.
  11. Now root beer will be ok for some, but back in the late 60's we were kind of fed up with root beer so we asked our carhop in Port Colborne for a mix of root beer and orange. When she brought it to us she looked a little disgusted and said it looked more like swamp water than anything she would drink. We did like the mix and still ask for it today, by name, and we get it.
  12. Now you're getting kind of personal, but that's alright, I'm sure Marca won't mind if I tell you about our forays out in the middle of the night when everyone else was asleep, like the night when my loved one could not find sleep so I loaded all into the bug and went for a short and then a longer drive, first in the city and then out into the country to find some lonely desolate roads where relaxation could be found, and when finally it was discovered that the eyes were closed and the breathing regular, I took the short route home only to be told: Daddie, I don't want to go to bed!!!!!!!!
  13. Good to hear that that is that. Now you can get on with some real healing and not be disturbed by the lousy end of things, the money and all the blamie things that go with it. Build some good memories of Tom and let the rest slide by. Thanks for keeping us posted and visit often, I like to hear your 'keyboard words' Carl.
  14. Very neat watching those, thanks
  15. Thanks for the good thoughts, they are right on. God made an excellant creation for all of us, but often times it just is never good enough. Good time to reflect on what He has given us and be content to enjoy the best there is. A Quote: You can't make a man happy by adding to his riches, but you can, by taking away from his desires.
  16. So here's the story: It was about 1977, and the bug was a 66 if I'm not mistaken. I bought it to drive back and forth to work. Bettle Boards put an ad in the local newspaper wanting to advertise products on VW bettles. We applied and got a contract for 1 year. They painted the car, with minor body work, and then applied the decals. They then paid us about $20.00 per month just to drive it around as we normally would, with an extra $25.00 for each parade that we joined. We joined in 2 parades in that year. The kids loved it and tended to almost climb all over this thing. My Dad & Mom, Dad was 70 at the time, also borrowed it for about 2 weeks while I did the body work and paint on their car. They never had so much fun driving around with comments as they did then. When the year was up, BB came and removed the decals and then repainted the car to it's original color. I then drove it for almost another year before the brake lines started to freeze, because water doesn't stay liquid in cold temperatures and brake fluid, at 1 can per week, was too expensive to keep replacing. The money received was enough to cover gas for the month and the parades helped out as well. I paid $300.00 to buy it to start with and got $150.00 for it when I was done. Sometimes inflation is a good thing. There's probably more to this story, but my memory ran dry at this point. I guess I was just wondering if anyone else had done the same thing, they had many different companies that they did advertising for. It was a neat idea.
  17. I told you, it's not easy being me!!!!!!!
  18. Darn, and such a good watch,,, wonder why?????????????
  19. You may leave my signature alone, I've earned it, and I plan on keeping it, for a while at least. Someday, when I'm done with it, my kids may want to sell it and then you may bid on it.
  20. Just awesome, literally awesome, what faith he must have to carry on.
  21. Ok, so now that leaves room for somebody else to come up with a good one. Glad it turned out and you can laugh at yourself, it sure makes life a lot more enjoyable. Let us know when you come up with another 'idea'.
  22. Seen a news item on CTV the other night about a bailout, one of the financial companies. They got their money and immediately had a retreat to celebrate, looked rather lavish to me, and it didn't seem they learned any lessons real quick like. My opinion: when the course has run for what ever you are doing, the fun is over, then it's time to do something else. Ask a farmer how this works, they go through it every year. Times ahead will not be easy for anyone of us. We will continue to live and exists, how be it, not as we have in the past. None of us will be left unaffected. The poor will find it hard to find food and shelter and will suffer physically, the rich will loose millions and suffer great pains mentally. I'm not sure which is worse, but I'm glad I'm not rich. Times like these have been prophesied in the Bible, could it be that the world is coming to a close? It'll be interesting to watch. So far we have seen many things that were foretold come to fruition. Nice to know that there is Someone who knew that was to be and has control.
  23. Interesting how he single handily liberated Zwolle, that's where my dad was born in 1906, kind of brings things a little closer to home. I never knew that,,, now I see what friends are for,,, thanks Brad. Carl
  24. Thinking of you constantly, not that I don't think of anything else, but you-all are not forgotten. Keep us posted. Carl
  25. As Marca said: We used to be fun once upon a time, and I think we would do it again,,,,,,yahooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
