songbird - forget the neighbor, he doesn't deserve to be treated that
way. It's His neighbor that needs to be treated this way

hey songbird, my neighbor's a pain in the butt. Could you come over a
straighten him out?

Dang daniel, that’s harsh. Kind of like castrating the head bull on the
range

daniel - 22 months? that's enought to be in forgotten mood.

glad to see nurse J smiling tonight

Mike, what's the Montana thing? you from there?
Just asking cause I am, born & raised in Missoula.

I’m in the wondering mood;
Wondering where my socks are.
Wondering why my fridge is empty.
Wondering why I’m writing this.
Wondering why the dog peed on my leg today
Wondering why the sun went away just when I got home
Wondering who decided a bill statement is a good place to load up the
advertisements.
Wondering if I send all that garbage back with my payment if they’ll
loose my check
Wondering if the sun will come up in west tomorrow

Wondering on out of here now…

Phoenix!! I spent 9 years in that area. Hang on the heat is headed your
way. --Welcome

Welcome and enjoy - it gets a little waky here at times

Welcome, Hope you enjoy

They’re not making babies in that movie spay

It really depends on the persons place in life. I have had to ask myself
this question several times. My 2 kids are 12 & 13. A couple years ago,
I would have answered with No problem. Today I’m in a different place;
looking at supporting them through high school and them shifting into my
own thing. Possible moving, traveling, getting a job that takes me away
for days at a time…. and such. I have several friends who are doing the
opposite. They’ve done their traveling and are now wanting to settle in.

Haven’t been on here too long but have noticed some wholesome folks (in
no particular order);

Buttons
Sweets
Nurjoice
Misty
Hopefulone
Bright & happy

Welcome folks from the big sky country.
We may have been neighbors at some time. I grew up in Missoula.

Welcome, hope ya have fun

OH, two in a row, you betcha

Single parent of 9 years to, now, a girl 13 and a boy 12.

Nice topic silkia. I have a tradition I do with my kids around hugs.
Every time we meet or leave or end the day, we hug. Every morning we
have morning hugs; We hug each other one at a time, hug our self and
then have a family hug.
Always a great start to the day with warm connection.

I grew up riding in the back of a flat bed truck wrestling with my
brothers as we went down the road. Hey that was a lot of fun. Then I
grew up & got some of that “common since”. Mostly came from spending a
lot of time on the road seeing some ugly wrecks and what happens when a
human body gets thrown down the road. Of course, the neighbor boys
taking an afternoon spin in a jeep added a reality check. A simple roll
over allowed the roll bar to cut one of them right in half, no seat belt
needed for that trick.

Just cannot agree with those who think they are exercising “common
sense” by ignoring the seat belt or helmet. Do you denounce air bags,
child seats, bumpers and designated drivers? There is a saying
electricians have – There are old electricians and there are bold ones,
but there no old And bold ones hanging around. Guess it’s that gene pool
clean up Klugman is talking about.

And since we are talking about this, where the common sense when a
parent holds their child in their lap while riding in the front seat of
a car? Yep, there’s a law to help people gain intelligence on that one
too. As a society we did a lot of stupid things in the past that we now
have information about that helps us better our lives. Until common
sense set in, laws are just one way to keep our friends and families
from becoming mangled messes.

Whew, got all fired up over that one. Time to calm down, let’s go smoke
a cigarette.
