That made me tear up a bit!

That is ALOT of travelling....lucky guy.

Everything in moderation.....for sure.

The occasional toke, no big deal.....I can't do it though...makes me paranoid and anxiety ridden.

I've heard that karo syrup has botulsim spores just like honey.....you might want to check it out first.

Agreed about the alcohol thing, having grown up with an alcoholic Mother who did downright DANGEROUS stuff with me in tow. Would have MUCH rather she be stoned.

I was a HUGE pot smoker in Jr. high and high school, getting high two and three times a day every day.......until it started making me really paranoid......I quit doing it my Senior year.

I can say firsthand it does make you pretty unmotivated, at least when you do it as much as I used to.

The year I quit I went from F student to honor roll...LOL

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes

LoL...totally

Here they are

I remember the Freakies!

I was just telling my kids about those this morning....how weird

Ha, I did all of mine as well except for the original two!

I have two tattoos, a butterfly on my ankle and a peace sign on my hip.

My left ear is pierced 5 times, the right twice

The Little Mermaid

I know funny, and you're not funny. Believe me.

Wow, you're a real class act.

I'd like to own a book store and just read all day......

Or write the next great American novel.

I LOVE Anthony Bourdain, he's such a wiseass.....

WOW...we filed at the same time I think, luckily ours was one of those sent to CSC and was approved right away!

Congrats!

I quit...LOL.

Most of these people have no education or training and they can get a minimum wage job with no health insurance and have to pay $800 a month rent and lose housing and food stamps and medical.......what's the incentive???????

We have to help them gain marketable skills so they can get the jobs that will sustain their families......and remove the barriers (drugs, domestic violence etc) to making that happen.

The whole "not in my backyard" thing SUCKS

Here in Oregon there is a 5 year LIFETIME limit for receiving services.

We try our best to get these people back up on their feet with job training

drug counseling etc...whatever it takes becasue it can't be a lifestyle here....5 years MAX, and then no safety net.

Troll,

you are SUCH an instigator...LOL

No.....Amby.

I missed her point apparently.

Your point was your ivory castle has been tarnished by those low life poor people...right?

I worked as a waitress for 10 years.

You have no idea the things I've seen cooks do.....

hair is the LEAST of it!

I try to NEVER piss off the cooks when I

go out to eat......

Value items at the grocery store???? GASP!

The horror!!!

This thread is too upsetting and it's a beautiful day...so I'm out!

Peace

I recognize burnout when I see it....

I'm not there yet, sorry.

Ummm Sinergy how do you know I don't KNOW anything about them????

I'm no trustfund baby, I sure as HELL know about poverty etc........I don't just WORKin the field I have LIVED that life, so don't ASSUME anything about me. Thanks.

Sinergy, I understand what you're saying. I have seen things in my job that make me lose sleep of make me go in the bathroom and cry....but I've also seen good people who just need a little help to get back on their feet, so you can't jsut make these sweeping generalizations about public housing etc.....
