[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by fec153 Hey, Fergie- I didn't start this page.[:D]. [/quote] Well so WHO do we blame this time. [;)] [:D] Let's get him good. [:p] [:D] Tar and feather him we will, then run him out of town on a rail. [:D] That ought to teach him. [B)] [:D] By the way, who started this page anyway? G U L P, oh, I did. [B)] [:0] Forget everything I just said. [;)] [:-^] <Jim changing the subject> And how is YOUR weather? [:D] I was checking on the first page to see who all posted there. Of course their was Elliot, and the second poster was Kevin (from Colorado), and Fergie, myself, Vic Smith, Gordon, Lupo, and I forgot who else already. [B)] <What a great bunch of guys> [;)] One of our posters was Jesse but I am not sure on which page he first posted. <whew, hard to not end in a prep but got it worded ok [:)] > But Jesse has been awol since about June. [:(] I sure hope everything is ok with him. Maybe Elliot or Ed can get together a list in their spare time. It would be interesting to know how many really still post here and how many do not. Ed seems to like doing the "stats" and things of that nature anyway. Then there would be the award for the posters who has changed his username the most number of times. [;)] And the award for the poster who lives the furthest distance from Elliot. That might be Lupo, but it could be Mitchell in Austrilia. [:0] And the award for the poster who lives the closest to Elliot. I think that might be Jim (Hawk05) And the award for the poster who had posted the most nonsense here. I think his posts were all deleted. [B)] That young 'un sure rilled us up, didn't he? [}:)] I wonder how many states and providences we have represented in the shop? How many countries? Rut Row Raggy, I better stop. I am starting to sound like a bean counter now. [:0] [B)] Well I think I might turn in early tonight since I am off this entire week. [8D] Everyone take care. <Jim might count passenger cars in his sleep> [;)] Edit starts here [B)] [:0] So much for going to bed early <s>tonight</s> I mean today. [;)] I got sidetracked by forum members instant messaging me and answering emails from forum members, but that is all ok and fine with me. [;)] Sentimental Jim is at it again. [:0] I received this email tonight and thought I would share it. [^] Paul Harvey Writes: We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand me down clothes and homemade ice cream and leftover meat loaf sandwiches. I really would. I hope you learn humility by being humiliated, and that you learn honesty by being cheated. I hope you learn to make your own bed and mow the lawn and wa***he car. And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are sixteen. It will be good if at least one time you can see puppies born and your old dog put to sleep. I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in. I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother/sister. And it's all right if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room,but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope you let him. When you want to see a movie and your little brother/sister wants to tag along, I hope you'll let him/her. I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely. On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your driver to drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as your Mom. If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of buying one. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books. When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in your head. I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush on a boy\girl, and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what ivory soap tastes like. May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole. I don't care if you try a beer once, but I hope you don't like it. And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he is not your friend. I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma/Grandpa and go fishing with your Uncle. May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays. I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through your neighbor's window and that she hugs you and kisses you at Hannukah/Christmas time when you give her a plaster mold of your hand. These things I wish for you - tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness. To me, it's the only way to appreciate life. Written with a pen. Sealed with a kiss. I'm here for you. And if I die before you do, I'll go to heaven and wait for you. Send this to all of your friends. We secure our friends, not by accepting favors, but by doing them. Paul Harvey
