This is a time of reflection for me and as I journied into the past one particular life altering time came to me. When I came back from my trip over the pond {the pacific} I for some insane reason thought I was immortal and invulnerable to pain and harm. I was making the rounds seeing old friends that I had lost track of over the years and made contact with 2 brothers that were my friends the speaks brothers... well larry was my age and one tough man... johnny was older and even ...

How does one get from “ I support my President” to YOU are a blind toe the party line person! How does one get from “I think this war is wrong” to you are un-American How come when you type, “I do not believe so and so lied” THEY SEE you believe anything someone from your party tells you! How come when you say” coercive interrogation is ok” THEY see, you believe in torture. Where do these thoughts come from? How can someone see what they want to that has nothing to do with what yo...

Without stuff, and me getting all mushy I wanted to thank the readers, posters, and players here in Joe user. I am off to the far reaches of Canada tomorrow with wife in tow. I wanted to express my Gratitude to those that have helped raise me out of the doldrums I has in November, so many real people here I just cannot begin to name them all, so I will not name any. You know who you are. I wish to say the one here in her full fury against me, also helped me in ways that even she coul...

Whew finally I get to spend some quality time with my wife at the beach house down south close to montarey, we leave tommorrow morning and spend tuesday, wednsday and thursday night there, then come home friday. This is a reward because I worked hard, created my own buisness {yes bad spelling and all} and retired, fairly well off, comfortable and did all this as a DEMOCRAT, My wife works hard and I have to be creative to get her to slack-up and take some r and r. So no word from me for...

As I was walking with all the grace an ill man that is 58 years old, on rocks that just an hour before was submerged in the pacific ocean, suddenly I went flying over the rocks. Sure footed as any 10-year-old boy, Running on slippery rocks, arms thrown out to my sides, laughing with joy. For a brief moment in time, I could feel the wind on my head, and just knew I still was wearing the crew cut I had worn as a child

She enters a room…… my heart jumps.. She radiates beauty….. calm.. sweet love. She favors me with a smile… sadness in her eyes.. Cloudlifter I call her… Stormbringer she calls me. She is the one I changed for…. Till the change became me. Clouds of doom she lifted from me.. Sweetness, the taste of her lips

Michele is not what you would expect to see in a hero, she is not tall, she has a sweet face and a kind loving disposition. She struggles daily with one of the most debillating diseases known to man Multiple sclerosis. She raises 3 wonderfull children, all of them bright and as kids love to be, willfull as hell. Her "husband" is someone that should be beaten, with a 4 by 4.. with nails in it, rusty ones. She has been sober now for almost 5 years, and her husband hates that, becaus...

While I respect whip and her views, I cannot say that kicking puppies is something to "enjoy". I do understand that whip is talking about humans, but I think and feel, we are all judged by how we treat the weakest of us, in life and on joeuser. Now remember I was a huge bully at one time and really enjoyed picking on the least of us { as I perceived them to be} I grew out of this {no I am not saying people that kick puppies are immature} SHIT HOW many disclaimers am I going to have t...

My sweet baby colleen drives me insane sometimes, it's the little stuff that gets me. She is an incredible dresser, neat as can be, good taste, impeccabley coifted, lite on the make-up. Now here is what drives me insane, she hits the house and her clothes start flying, a bra here, panty hose there, blouse here, And me being the anal man that I am, I follow her around picking them up. Every so often I collect them and gently fling them across the room, sometimes hang them from the cha...
