Ed, The mental picture you painted of chainsawing had me grinnin from ear to ear. It is a funny thing to picture! But hey I think Kev invented a new word. I think it kind of fits. I mean if you swim in water its called swimming. you drive a vehicle its called driving so why not chainsawing?? (He He.) Okay enough goofyness for now. But seriously it was very caring of that engineer and you to go to that funeneral. I mean funerals are for grieving right and I am sure conductors grieve also and I don't see any thing wrong with going. I think it took a big person to go and a even bigger person to show that they also feel. I was wondering. Is "stay frosty" your summer signature and "stay toasty" your winter signature?(ha ha) no but seriously I did wonder what stay frosty means. Jen has posted in this discussion for the first time since I have and I am glad to see another woman. I don't want to be the only (as Kev puts it) woman thats alway right!!(ha) In reply to Jen I don't need councelling (okay maybe I do some times)But not about this. I need it because of the kids and the husband! They have a way of making me CRAZY-lol. Just joking but it is nice to meet you and yes I may be full of questions some may seem stupid to some of you with all the know how. So don't laugh at me too hard. I have been called nieve many times in my life. I am probably the last person to teach any one English!! I find my own lacking most of the time! But I am more then happy to stick around. I am curious as to what new word Kev will make up next! It really is to bad that drivers ed is not mandated to teach more about it. I think it is just as important as any other traffic laws. As for the Operation Life Saver in school. I have seen one. I realize you all are probably going to give me crap about what I am going to tell you but here goes any way... OLS came to our local grade school this last school year. I work there so I went and watched but did not allow my 8 year old to attend it. I had never seen what goes on there and with the experience our family has had I wanted to make sure that her loved one was not demeaned infront of her in any way. Being as young she is I did not know what she would say or what the response would be. I just did not want to take any changes until I knew what went on. I will consider next year for her. I don't know yet. I let her have the memorabilia they sent such as a coloring book, ruler, keychain and pencil. I had conflicting emotions about it all. I teach my child what is safe and what is not. So there for I don't feel that I endangered her by not letting her go. I in my own way was trying to protect her from the unknown. Now I know what goes on like I said if I am there I will probably let her attend with my supervision. I understand they are trying to help and I think that is great of them but I as a parent and very involved with my children's lives and want to make sure some thing is as it should be before I subject my children to it. I may not be able to do it for ever but I can dang sure do it now. So I imagine I am very disagreed with on this. Any way thanks for opening the doors for me and I sure do look forward to amusement and laughs along with learning and making friends. Take care always, Melissa
