Religion What is your take on religion? Do you base your thoughts in life according to your religion? Do you feel that religion should be kept out of Government and Politics?

Should have seen me trying to help her into the truck, out of the truck, then up her steps with my back out...

Trying to talk her into staying with us for a week or two till she's more capable of taking care of herself and it'll be easier on me...But she won't agree...

And my hubby wonders who I get my independent/stubbron streak from. ROTFLMAOL!

You suppose wrong, as usual. What is so offensive about the VN memorial for you to make such an ignorant comment?

That is the very essence of the design of the VM memorial. Thank you!

Killed by six bullets from a Colt 44
No Les
No More
How droll....




And tacky....



Not everyone has the same religious beliefs and "wears" their love of Jesus on their sleeve like you do gar......

Sounds like Gary visited the cemetery behind the Haunted Mansion in Disneyland.

Oh dear, Ali. Well, I suppose I am trying to cheer you up.

Cool
Ali, I did say this..."if we took a poll of the regulars who know you well, I am pretty sure I'd be backed up in this. what say you? I'm game."...to a poster NOT you.

You had this to say to me...
"By saying that, you are trying to drag us into your little pi**ing contest with Kat. By suggesting a poll and trying to get other members to choose sides..."

"So I suggest to you, don't try doing that."
...and the commentary was absolutely wonderful.

I can see where you might have misunderstood what I was saying and doing with Kat. It's sorta like what would happen when Samantha and Darren would be doing something and poor mrs. kravitz would see things from afar and draw the wrong conclusion...at least I think that's how it went.

The rest of your post to me consists of a scolding. I already have one mother and she's still pulling double duty. When an opening presents itself I will notify you if you are still interested. But in the mean time...could you please tone it down? I feel like going to my roon now...after washing out my mouth with soap.

Kat, I just sent off a diplomatic reply to your defender. I guess it's time to fold 'em.

We'll start over again.

I apologize for anything I've written that may have been taken the wrong way.
