Oh, happy birthday ACM!!!
Been turned into a pin cushin at the hospital yesterday. Such is life when you get a job at a hospital. Yup, I start next month. Its not as many hours as I would want or even need but its a start and my boss is really nice and accomidating. I'll be per diem/part time. My first week is 40 hours but I have a feeling I may average 30 hours a week after that. Its something and I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep the house if I don't have a job. My partner has been the bread-winner for over a year now and its not something I like. My unemployment checks aren't much but they do manage to keep my truck paid for. I can only hope the mortgage company will offer us a program that will work for us. I'm still looking for full time work but not sure what will pop up for me. **Tune in for the latest struggles of Wolfie!** ( i feel like a soap opra sometimes, lol) ...........................shadowwolf |

Wolfie!!! Girl you need to have your own action figure! Sue Jr is Iron Woman, you could be Persistant Woman = The gal that doesn't give up!
Thanks for the birthday wishes folks. Well I had my meeting with the investigators today regarding Steve. In addition to giving a disposition , I provided copies of some of the email correspondance from Steve to me over the years. I will be shocked beyond belief if he manages to survive this without either getting fired or getting some time on the beach. Which sounds nicer than it is. It's a suspension without pay. Not the way I would want to end my years on the job. |

It is very true, ACM. I could wait for the cows to come home and never leave my post if I had to.
I just got back today from taking a test for a county position. I took this test over a year ago but the 2 jobs offered at the time were scrapping up dead animals off the road, (sooo not gonna do that one!), and chucking 60 pound blocks of asphalt into a asphalt grinder/mixer for road surfacing. (try doing that in the middle of summer! even the guys quite that job!). I think I did fine on the test. Pass the test, be placed on a list, and wait to get a letter for interview. Thats only after the supervisor for a particular department gets the authorization to hire. Its kinda weird how they do the process but all I can do is keep testing and appling. And so goes another day in the life of Wolfie! ..........lol ..............................shadowwolf |

I am back from vacation. The computer cenrter in the Holiday Inn would not allow me to access this site. It claimed that it wasn't a 'business
site' but a chat cite. But I could access on line games if I wanted too.
Sorry I am late with the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" wishes ACM. I believe that losing Steve will be a very great gift. Good luck on the job hunt Wolfie. See all later. COMMA |

What's really random is that I'm posting on this board. I haven't done since like 2003. Anyhow I hope you all don't hate me for doing this.
But reason why I came back to this board is because I'm looking for someone who use to post on this board and maybe, just maybe someone might be able to
help me get in contact with this person. Although the chances are probably pretty slim I figure, what the heck. Her screename on her was AmberBGirlie I went looking through here and I know she
hasn't posted since 2003 either. Anyhow something just hit me the other day, had to with this Allison Iraheta kick I've been on lately, and I just
wanted to say hi and see what she was up to. If anyone could help me out in getting in contact with her I'd appreciate.
Anyhow it's really good to this board is still going. I'm sad to say I haven't really kept up with what Amber's been doing since I left and came back to MO. A lot has happened in my life, from having some health issues to my grandma having health issues and then my mom and then legal matters and such things are really crazy so I just keep up with what I can. Especially now that I'm back where I can't get away with much with my mom and sister watching my every move. I do have I job, but it's not a real job. I need to get a real job. Working concerts and conventions, ie ticket taker usher crowd control, just really isn't that real of a job although I do take it seriously and enforce what I'm told to. Anyhow I apologize for not coming to the board, especially for the length of time I've been away. but if anyone could help me find Amy I'd appreciate it. Makes me think of that moving Chasing Amy, although that movie has some adult content and that not why I'm looking to get in contact with her. Maybe I should stop typing now before I type something that I don't mean to. Well if anyone can help I'd appreciate it and I promise I'll come back to the board more often, besides looking for people from the past. <a href=http://www.shareapic.net/ref.php?owner=dabri99><img src="http://www.shareapic.net/refads/aff3.gif" border="0" ></a> |

"Nip/Tuck" has been canceled by 'FX' just a week after the final episode, which was also it's 100th show, was shot with little fan fair.
The final episode may not be shown until 2011, if it is ever aired.
Welcome back dabri99! ACM may know how to make contact with AmberBGirle. Good luck. CC |

thanks for the well wishes.
That sucks about Nip/ Tuck although I couldn't watch it because I don't have any sort of cable anymore. Really digging Robin Thicke's music, which would be suprising to most, but for you all most of you don't know me so I guess it's not all that suprising. <a href=http://www.shareapic.net/ref.php?owner=dabri99><img src="http://www.shareapic.net/refads/aff3.gif" border="0" ></a> |

When I am really in the mood to write, I even surprise myself. While this letter, and post, are
unquestionably political in nature, it is not aimed at any one party. CC
To my elected representatives: I am your boss and I'm warning you that your position is in danger. Now that I've got your attention, I'm going to list some of the reasons why. America is based on the idea that all men are created equal. You've created an aristocratic class by passing laws that apply to me, but not to you. You have made yourself legally better than me and I don't like it. You have your own retirement plan and aren't subject to having to participate in social security. You've spent all of the money collected for social security on pork-laden projects. Bernie Madoff went to jail for running a Ponzi scheme and taking money from his victims that will never be paid back. Explain to me how the way you run social security is different from what he did. You have your own comprehensive health plan that is fully paid for by me, yet you want me to have a grossly inferior health plan, which will limit the care I can get. You continuously lie to me and make the assumption that I'm incompetent and can't take care of myself. You spend my money to purchase votes from other citizens. This takes away my power to disapprove of your actions and destroys the meaning of a free election. You pass laws that limit my freedom unreasonably. There has already been a revolution over this very issue. Well over half of the American population is armed and you've continuously tried to disarm the population for fear of having to face repercussions for your actions. Every American citizen has to live within the constraint of the money he or she earns. Most do a fairly good job of budgeting. You don't abide by a budget. Whenever you spend too much, you simply print more dollars or tax me more. If I did what you are doing, I would be placed in prison. You are taking over private businesses. You have passed and are planning on passing laws that make it very difficult for me to make a living. You have confiscated private property and now own or control most of the land in the United States. You have acted as if you are above the common law of the land and have greatly damaged the business environment by violating private contracts without changing contract law. You have endangered national security and have demonstrated that you care more about the opinion of non-citizens than about mine. You have engaged in wars without just cause and without consulting me. You have given billions of my dollars to foreign groups who intend to harm our country. You have steadfastly refused to secure our borders and have exposed me to attack by terrorists. You have spent my money to travel overseas to say denigrating things about my country and have encouraged my enemies. You have conspired with private groups to destroy America's industry and to ruin my country's schools. You not only allow, but also encourage propaganda of the worst sort to be taught to my children. You have done your best to set brother against brother in order to create political opportunity. You have distorted our nation's history and have attempted to destroy our institutions and values. You use false science and fear-based propaganda to further your goals. You have engaged in shady deals with people who provide money to you. You have appointed people to illegal positions of authority who distort our basic rules for your political gain. You have appointed judges on the basis of political orientation and ideology with the hope that they will subvert our laws in ways you find favorable to your desire for power. You have refused to give a good accounting of the money you spend. You expect to take up to half or more of the money I earn with taxes and then you cheat on your own tax returns. You spend hundreds of millions of our dollars on projects that I do not need and have not approved and, yet, you let the infrastructure of my country decay. You use our Constitution against me by reading meaning into it that is not there and ignoring inconvenient sections. You actively discourage religions that foster responsibility and individualism and encourage religions that are closer to your statist goals. You attempt to destroy our children's individuality and their native sense of morality. You manipulate polls and want to manipulate the national census in order to lie about what "The People" want. Don't think you're fooling me. I'm smart enough to know when you're lying. You pass absurdly contradictory and conflicting laws so that I am in violation of them no matter what I do. I like a clean environment as well as anyone, yet balance is important. To destroy a farmer's livelihood, take a person's private property, or to endanger a person in any way, in order to protect a rat, a toad, or an insect is beyond belief. Stop this now! You believe you can make this a socialist country and it may only cost the lives of a few thousand citizens. Let me tell you, one life is too many. Socialism and communism ultimately fail because their philosophy ignores basic human truths. You have arranged things so that your job is as secure as you can make it. I think that it's just about time for that to end. I delegated some of my power to you to better facilitate the running of our country. You have not done a good job. You have done and are continuing to do your best to secure all power and control into your hands, leaving nothing for me and making me a slave to your wishes. I now rescind the delegation of my power. You no longer represent me. I find that I can better preserve my Freedom without your interference. Pay attention. I'm out here. I'm listening and watching you. I'm completely fed up with your actions. I'm tired of you ignoring me. Don't think that I won't take action. Don't even begin to think that you can intimidate me or legislate my silence. You won't like the result. Signed, A Free American who intends to remain Free |

Politicians of all stripes have their hands bloodied and faces dirty that is true beyond words. We also have a segment of the population who feel that
it's okay to demoralize and deny rights to tax paying citizens. To demand unreasonable benefits from said government without having had to pay for them. I
speak of the some folks that were layed off from a religious organization, discovering that they wouldn't be able to collect unemployment because said
religous organization was 'tax exempt'. These folks felt they were entitled to this money. ....um no you aren't. Or folks that don't want ANY
kind of government involvement in their lives. Okay fine then don't take ANY kind of assistance from the government. I'm sure someone else will gladly
take that social security check.

I wanna add someting to my own government:
I thought we were a free country and I thought everyone had to pay, according to what s/he earns, for the sfe social security system we have. Yet foregin companies that settle in Amsterdam and take my place to live and my opportunity to start my own business don't have to pay taxes, no matter if/how many job oportunities they create for Dutch people. But the friend I want to come live with me can't move here because she is "foreign", "alien" to you, though she would be happier and safer here. She's inteligent, friendly and intends to learn the language and find a job in the long run. In contrast the (1st, 2nd or 3d geberation of mainly) Maroccans and Turkish immigrants are allowed to import brides who are not to leave the house, learn the language, get a job or even mingle in our society. Explain the fairness in that to me??? edit; I have to add that I've got nothing against whatever etnic group, I just have something against unfair use of glitches in the law and even more strongly against people who are so far "rightwing" that they refuse to mingle with others that don't aprove of their oppinions off course it's ok to avoid people who are intentionally hurting you in any way, like I don't like to mingle with for example southern babtist activists whenever I can avoid it, but I think yall get my point right? This is wrong in my eyes, someone who sincerely wants to become Dutch is turned away, yet someone who could live anywhere because they won't mingle or even leave the house is welcomed??? You've made me angry *pout*

ACM - I think that if you work for a religious organization that you can add withholdings or deductions for unemployment and social security to your paycheck
if you choose to file that way voluntarily. I'm guessing these people that got laid off didnt do that...
Dorothy, sounds like Amsterdam has similar laws regarding immigration-through-marriage that the United States does.

I feel that Dorothy is going to really like me now. DOTR, I am a licensced Southern Baptist minister. I have been since 1970 and, when invited, I still
preach from time to time. Some of those activist are good friends of mine. Please understand that I can be friends with someone and still disagree with them.
I am, after all, married to a liberal Democrat and have been since 1972. COMMA

@comma I won't mingle with those people because they hurt ME, if you can mingle without getting hurt do whatever you like. By all means, go mingle, it
might even open someone up to a less extreme way of thinking when they get to mingle with people that hold values different from theirs.
(they don't have to come out and congratulate me on being gay, rather not, just stopping hurtfull actions that are very hard to evade would be enough ;-) ) |

I will never forget Farrah Fawcett and that swim suit poster. I also missed her after she left 'Charlie's Angels'. Now , at 62, she had left us.
RIP FF.

COMMA~~Such an odd type of cancer. Can't say I've heard much on that one.
Sounds like she had a wonderful life though. Farrah, you will be missed. ........................................shadowwolf |

Just read the headline and artical that was posted just 3 minutes ago.
A major blow to the world of music. I always wanted to see him perform but never got the chance. And to think, he and I are the same age! I'm sure he'll be singin' and dancin' on the other side. ..........................................shadowwolf |
