Thanks for putting this up, Tonya. And I am so sorry to here about Moderateman's death. He was quite a passionate writer on here. :( When I feel up to it again, I would like to put up a writing in honor of Chris. I know I haven't been on here for a while, but some writing therapy might do me good. Thanks to everyone for their kind thoughts. Doc, Chris was very involved in the Boys' and Girls' Clubs in Toledo, Ohio. He was once a member and an employee, and spoke fo

Don't know what the situation was, but I am going to guess that you ran into some pretty ignorant people. Aside from that, wanted to wish you a Happy New Year, Mason. :)

What an Awe inspiring thing for you to experience, Brandy. Congratulations on your new baby girl. :):) My sis is having her first baby in May...she is planning a natural birth, but she is very scared. I have no words of wisdom for her since I haven't gone through the experience of birth, but I will be there for whatever support she needs.

Well, I will definitely check you out at the new place. It's a shame, though, that many regulars have moved on. I wish I had the skill to create a new blog site for the wayward bloggers...or have the courage to demand that the average joe be noticed around here. Is there any way all the wayward bloggers could all meet at a new place? Or am I grasping at straws? It would be nice if Brad would consider separating JoeUser from stardock...ya know, just for the heck

[quote who="dynamaso" comment="3"] As you probably know, Toni and I decided not to have kids (for lots of reasons I'm sure you've read before). We made the decision based on manner factors we exhaustedly discussed. I'm sure Chris and you would make wonderful parents but don't let others decide when the right time is for you. As for JoeUser, well you can tell my interaction has decreased from what it used to be. This is for the reasons you have postula

Work Related : In Reviewing the American Revolution these past weeks, I challenged my students to learn and recite the 1st 2 stanzas (?) of Paul Revere's ride (okay, so that's a bit like torture, but hey, I need to evaluate effective speaking skills...lol). Anyway, I had several students mess up the author's name, such as Henry Watson, Harry Longfellow, Henry Waddlesworth, Henry Livingstone, Harry Long-"som

Yikes...a root canal. One of my worst nightmares. I have a feeling I will be needing one soon. I am glad, though, that yours went better than you thought it would. It makes ME feel better...lol. So sorry to hear about your son being sick...hope he feels better soon. And it would suck if he gets a yeller as a teacher next year. Once-in-a-while yelling is pretty normal (okay, I do it once in a while...lol), but a constant yeller...ugggh. Here is h

hiya Maso, I am liking the rant...just too bad I didn't reply to it soon. It's great that your wife Toni loves you exactly for who you are...madness and all. :) I am not much of a risk taker, so to know that you and your wife are willing to basically start life over again somewhere else is pretty awesome. Maybe my risks don't have to be so great...maybe I should just take them one step at a time. ;)

It's not surprising at all to hear A-Rod did steroids. I'm willing to bet there's a lot more players out there who done it than who didn't. Not only is Bud Selig a huge hypocrite but so are the owners and most reporters. They all knew back when McGwire and Sosa were "saving baseball" that they had a potential huge problem and no one said or did anything. Today I don't think it bothers the fans as much as the media wants to think it does. It seems

[quote who="KellyW0498" comment="3"]You could call this article FULL CIRCLEI like that and you could include the circle your arms make when you are squeezing the love out of Ty! How exciting that must have been to watch. They did one of those in N. Idaho last year and while I couldn't go see it everyday on the news they were showing the behind the scene stuff. Fascinating. I would have loved to see the bus move though.I know it is hard to support and do the right thing when it comes to family

[quote who="RoyLevosh" comment="2"] I think that would be a GREAT idea! Don't give up on your dream of maybe one day making it a reality. Tell ole tightwad-Tad Chris to let go summa that $ and I'll bet you could get it done in no time. (just kidding about that last part -but I do think you oughta go for it some day.
