72 to Turkey Egg...A Football Story in Misc JoeUser Forums

So, I'm passing the time last night reading the internet. While at the end of the information superhighway, I finally succumbed to a piece Matt Mosley had written on espn.com. The article led me to the ESPN 103.3 website where I found and perused his bio ( <span style="color: #800080;

The Scariest Movie Ever in Misc JoeUser Forums

We were in Blockbuster Friday evening searching for movies to watch as we anticipated the storms rolling into our area from the gulf. As we walked the store, my son picked up a copy of a horror movie in jest, which led to the question, “What is the scariest movie you’ve ever watched?” <span style="f

1. What is the strangest thing you ever ate? Some would say that it is strange that I top my enchiladas with a fried egg...try it...you just might like it! 2. Describe yourself in six words. Idealistic realist, liberal conserative, extroverted introvert 3. Have you ever been addicted to a video/computer game? Which one? Addiction to games comes and goes in waves. The latest addiction was Call of Duty 4 preceeded by Guitar Hero and Rockband. 4.&nbsp

1. If you could live in any TV series home, which would it be? Even at 16, I can recall watching The Cosby Show thinking, I want to be a calm, cool, collected dad like Cliff Huxtable. I had a Cliff-Theo moment with my 13-year-old son recently. He had an inordinate number of gaffes within a 24-hour period

The other day while packing, T took a trip down memory lane by going through a box of items she'd kept through the years. She brought me a sheet of notebook paper with a very creative song complete with illustrations written by you two (mostly by you according to T). As I read the song and looked at the drawings, I was taken back to the drawings X left behind after your visit. If I laid his work and yours in a stack, no one would have distinguished between the two. His imaginat

1. Who makes you laugh the hardest? I easily amuse myself (sad, but true). I like to play practical jokes on others. My wife asked me to change the bed sheets at the house we're selling and not living at the moment for some friends of ours who needed a place to crash for the weekend. I made up the bed and put a copy of The Joy of Sex under the covers. :LOL: I was cracking up last night when they called after finding the book. 2. What are five things you can't li

1. What was the best meal your mom cooked? or dad? Dad can grill some mean steaks to this day. As a kid, I remember mom's gingerbread with melted butter. My brother refers to mom's cooking as "crack" because he's addicted and can't get enough...he ventures over often to get his fix. 2. Do you have any exciting plans for this weekend? I spent an extended weekend in Corpus Christi with my wife, children, mom and dad. They had fun on th

I have always valued the other side of the coin. I think it is essential to try and understand and empathize with another person and the position from which they stand. I write to process my feelings; I post in the hope that my somehow my misery can minister. I hurt for you. I understand why divorce is not God's design. It hurts so many people outside the two that separate. However, there are circumstances in which healing cannot occur, and

Here's how I look at it...I'm stimulating the economy by calling in a repair person. Sure I don't like making that call or forking over the dough to pay for a simple repair, but with today's equipment, I've decided there are no simple repairs...DIY Network, Yahoo Answers, etc. or not...The person who comes out to repair whatever I've jacked up is trying to make his/her way in the world too...so I say, let 'em work and earn what they learned to repair while I do for them the trade I
