Good Times.
Any time you meet a payment.
Good Times.
Any time you need a friend.
Good Times.
Any time you're out from under.

Not getting hastled, not getting hustled.
Keepin' your head above water,
Making a wave when you can.

Temporary lay offs.
Good Times.
Easy credit rip offs.
Good Times.
Scratchin' and surviving.
Good Times.
Hangin in a chow line
Good Times.
Ain't we lucky we got 'em
Good Times.
LOL...I can relate.

Considering we started 13 or so years ago as a disabled vet and a 16 year old on the internet lying about her age, I think we do pretty good.
Congratulations! I wish you and your family all the best.

Just interested to know if you genuinely can't work or are just a work-shy loser!

Given your reluctance to give a reason I'm tending to believe the latter.

Gary, just leave him alone. The way you take people's personal business and use it in your prideful spewing of condemnation...it is no wonder he aint telling you diddly.

Besides if you think it over, everyone...we ALL are clueless and can be so judgmental when all we do is apply our political persuasions to our conversations here.

My God, we are all people. Vulnerable and needy people, all of us. And at the end of the day, we all need to know we are valued and affirmed.

OD...I know that this is probally gonna make a few jaws dropped when I say this...

But the quote of Gary's that you've got in your post? I'm kinda wondering myself and wondering like him.

Now, before anyone has a stroke about me agreeing with Gary on this, there's a disability that the goverment allows for recipents to receive funds for...From free housing, to free medical, to food stamps.

I've known quite a number of such individuals on this particular disability and there's alot of upset with taxpayers that find out there's a certain group of individuals getting disability and exempt from having to work because of it...

Alcohol and drug addiction/abuse disability social security benefits.

Yes, people who are allowed legally to receive goverment funds/support for drinking and drug use.

I'm not saying that this is the case in regards to NR...But I do find it suspicious that having a disability, he seems pretty...evasive and embarrassed to mention his if he's truely disabled in some manner.
