ok.....this is a really creepy story....it still freaks me out when i think about it...a few years back...we were driving to Jefferson Texas....i'd never been there before...but anyway, a few miles west of Marshall, off the side of the interstate there was an old barn....dilapidated, about to just fall over....anyway...when i saw it...i instantly "recognized" it...i "remembered" it somehow...i swear i had never been this far on i-20 before....as we were passing it, for some reason in my head i saw one of those old timey water pumps....the old ones with the crank handle.....then low and behold, around the back side of this barn was one of those old water pumps and a well.....creepiest thing that ever happened to me.....still can't explain it....why this old barn seemed so familiar to me is unexplainable....and how did i know there was a water pump behind it??....i'll never forget that day....i tried to tell my wife about it when it happened....she said i was crazy....that i had to have seen it somewhere before.........but i hadn't....it still boggles me.......

Ted AND PA, Sometimes I’ll hear or see something that I swear I’ve seen or heard before. Sometimes it’s as if I can almost predict the future. LOL

Have ya’ll seen “Ground Hog Day”? Maybe life’s like that. We just keep living the same bunch of crap over and over and over again.

I had a great day PH, thanks for asking.

Hi Chard!

What I said is very true. I've mentioned it before. I won't name names because I don't discuss (unlike others) who I email with or the content of the emails, but it did happen.

Do you save your old emails? I got my first pot stirring email on 11/16/06. That’s one of the reasons I don’t email with anyone anymore. I was getting all kinds of emails about crap on the blog.

If you noticed, I took my email out my bio a long time ago; that’s why I took it down.

I’m guilty of discussing members and the blog in emails, but the few people I choose to email with don’t enjoy talking about the blog so we don’t talk about it.

One friend of mine insists that we NEVER talk about the “blogosphere”.

You said yourself that one of the reasons you and Lee had problems was that you weren't willing to play along with his games. By the way, the subject line of that first email was, “Let the GAMES Begin.” LOL

You know exactly what I'm talking about. When you say that type of stuff doesn’t go on in emails, everyone who has ever received one of those emails knows differently.

As far as you go Chard, if any one of the “trouble makers” has earned some respect around here from me, it’s been you. I know that doesn’t mean much, but I can see a big difference in the way you communicate with others.

…but when I see Lee, acoolone, and Lamb all magically appear on the same day, my mind races back to the good old days that weren’t so good.

PS: If you really want me to I guess I could post the partial email addresses and text of emails or I could email them to you (your email address is on the email), but I think that would make many people very unhappy.

I really do hope you’re having a good day!:)

LOL@Chard and her boots. CONGRATULATIONS! It is a bit nippy out there isn’t it?

You know allegiances change so much around here I’m not even sure who “they” are anymore.

I hate this “us and them” mentality that goes on around here.

No we don’t all believe in the beliefs, but we’re all humans. We can tenaciously debate politics or religion (ouch) without throwing in a “stupid” or “dumb azz” towards the person. There’s no reason to call someone “retarded” because of their opinions.

It’s OK to think it, but it’s personally offensive and rude to say it.

My major concern is the new people who come here. You have to admit it’s nice to infuse some new blood into this place every once in while, but WE (including me) act like such a bunch of out of control baboons, that there haven’t been any good new members for a while or at least none that stuck around very long.

I don’t believe in sharing emails and I haven’t yet. Those emails were more like “I just posted this to cause trouble (the web address of the post) go there and join in on the fun.”

It’s fun to cause “trouble”? It’s fun to clog the board with posts that are posted for the sole purpose of disrupting the forum or to cause another member grief? That’s not fun, that’s childish.

(cont.) go figure!:)

I don't care for the us/them think either, but that's what it became, honestly. And yes, I don't think causing trouble is fun.... I sometimes get frustrated with many things that are said, but as you say, it's just an opinion and like butts, everyone has one. LOL

Our daughter has a GS... mercy, such a strong dog.. he can pull her down the street! lol But, he's protective and sweet.

Gotta get back to work..... hope the rest of your day is good. Sun seems to be coming out! :)

It was hard not to be on 'sides' in school... seems it was the natural order of things, this crowd or that crowd. I didn't like it either and went both ways with friends and got some snotty looks from both 'sides'. lol

I like pants... he's rather loud and in your face, but he seems to have a good heart or something. Seems many don't like him, but hey, whatever, I do.

It's hard getting over pets. Our cocker spaniel died 4 yr. ago and I still miss him. So sweet and loyal... mercy. Best dog we ever had. Another can never replace the missing family member, but another can make a NEW member and help fill the void.

Spotted a new alter this a while ago... asking where didlee and some others go? LOL Probably lee? lol

I'm off... have a good tomorrow.

BTW, I went to add you to my favorites to keep track of ya, but I don't see the link.

What's up with that?
