Wow, a tiny little island off the Indian ocean! Sounds mysterious and exotic! We can call you Jerry if you want, but I think Island Boy or something would be more fun! ;) LOL!

Well, do as you please. But there're much smaller islands than mine!

Unky, I like Unky.

Starby, my phone is waiting for a call from you. :)

Never mind, it just rang, oh, it's you. :)

But, I'll not be always able to be online when you're. Mostly in the afternoon. You being in canada, it must be around the morning when I'm online.

Ok, I'm really getin' sleepy. Night all! Wow, already ten to eleven!

Sorry Unky, I got busy, talking to Starby on the phone. Have a good night. :)

Nice to meet you Unky, The times may be different but we all have a way of meeting each other online one time or another.

*yawn* I'm tired and I haven't been on here in quite awile

How's it been?

It's been good Guy. How are you? How's summer break going?

Not "Bad"

Went to Opry Mills (Basicially Our Version of West Edmondton Mall) Bought 2 pairs of shoes and Drool'd Over a Bunch of Guitars and the Gibson Showcase, Ate a weird Burger that had Plantains on it at TGI Friday's and today I figured out that my father is Using my Summer Essay As Blackmail because when I constantly ask to go somewhere He uses the ole "is your essay done yet?" excuse -.-

And I'm wishing I didn't have to wake up at 7 in the morning on MOnday for football

Plantains?

What's your essay about? How many pages does it have to be? How many pages have you written? Get it done, then you can go out. :)

Any fun things going on? Any parties, get togethers, girls? I want to hear all, I'm reliving my youth through you, so fess up. :)

I'm me, Do you really thing I go to Parties?? Do you think I EVEN get INVITED to parties?? Let alone talking to girls o_O, BEsides, All the ones here have Cooties
No get together, This kid tried to call me a couple days ago and tried to invite me to Laser Tag But I was going to that day I believe

The essay is a 2 page MLA Format Paper about this book I had to read to get into Honors English II, Its called the good earth and truthfully, I would have rather read Capn Underpants XD

Hey, as I said... I loved that book.

Besides, partying isn't for everyone... personally, I like to sit around at home, watch a movie, or read a book...

... but I DO go out and do my best to get arrested every now and then :)

I love Capn Underpants. :)

Sweetie, you'll meet people, nice people, don't give up hope that they're out there. I come from a small town, not many people here at all. I remember high school, "the best years of your life" my a$$. Life begins after high school, so don't let it get you down, okay?

Now, I need your advice, I think I might have gone to far in a post again. I was mad, really mad. Do you think I said the wrong thing?

...but I DO go out and do my best to get arrested every now and then :)

Dang, is this were I admit that I was arrested once? Long time ago, I was 18, we were walking home from the bar, it was winter and cold. The mall has a payphone in the front foyer area, the guys we were with said they'd spring for a cab. The doors were unlocked, we went in and called a cab. Police car drove up, came in to the mall, asked what we were doing. We told him. My friend Kim was a bit drunk, and has a big mouth, she looks at the cop and says "Man, you are ugly, I hope your partner is better looking than you." Bingo, bango, we're under arrest. Down to the police station we go, where I inform one of the other officers what happened. We were released, and had to walk home from the polic station. Grrrrrr. Told you I wasn't an angel. :);)

I'm trying not to worry about it, I just get frustrated when People back in Juneau tell me all these wonderful fun times they have and all I can say is "cool, I've just be sitting here...all day.."

I'm just Biting my lip at the moment

Sorry Alty, I quite don't understand what their asking and I really can't give you an answer

Sneezy: Your tastes, Not mine, I like Harry Potter, Eragon/Eldest, and Tom Clancy

Alty: not mean at all... although she may take it a bit harshly, regardless... it was justified.

Guy: as I said before, high school was the "academic time of my life"... where the books I read actually had stories. College was "the time of my life...socially" but being a pre-med math major... academically, I would have rather gotten a root canal... everyday... for 4 years.

Oh, it's OK alty. I've been arrested twice, pulled over more times than I can count, not to mention the fights that my friends always get me into, and have been shot at twice. (they missed both times)

No prob.

I like Harry Potter too, Eragon is good, and I used to read Tom Clancy.

I love Tami Hoag, and Sue Harrison, Jean M Auel (she better finish her next book soon or I'm going to hunt her down), Robin Cook, anything but romance novels. :)

guy: as I said before, high school was the "academic time of my life"...where the books I read actually had stories. college was "the time of my life...socially" but being a pre-med math major...academically, I woulda rather gotten a root canal...everyday...for 4 years.

oh, it's ok alty. I've been arrested twice, pulled over more times than I can count, not to mention the fights that my friends always get me into, and have been shot at twice. (they missed both times)

Shot at once, in a bar, and almost knifed, kicked that guy in the groin and ran. Had a guy smash my head into his windshield because I wouldn't sleep with him, and then punch me because his windshield broke and he was mad, I was 15, he was 20 (big mistake) I still have the scar on my forehead. Let's see, there's more, but maybe some things are better left unsaid. ;)

I can't quite the name of the Author, But the it was a "spy' series where this guy Named Dirk Pitt saved the world and such.. it has like 20 something books in the series, Plus the based a movie on it

Sahara (2005 film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahara_(2005_film))

EDIT: Its Clive Cussler

Ohhhhh! Rather romatic person under the bad one!

Good lord.. . where do you find these guys?

My reading list...

Currently sitting in my bookshelf:

Surgical manuals... medical journals... My Life by clinton, shakespeare... sophocles... dante... aeneid... a lot of New York times' best sellers...

I live in a small town, it's not hard to find trouble if you're looking, and I always was back then. Not now, now I'm a married mother of two, the wild days are definitely behind me, and I lived to tell about it. :)

Alty! Plantains!. They are gooooddd! They kind of look like banana's. We need to go to Florida! Eat plantains, and sip little umbrella drinks with Chicky! We can always break into my parents house... or get the keys from the lawn boy. Oh man, that would be so much funnnnnnnnn!

I need to have a short (hopefully) nap you guys... be back in a bit!

Back in Middle School, They had this thing CAlled ACcecleration REading where the School booard made sure that the students read the books

What they did was take a crap load of random books and give them "Points' based on length, difficutly, etc... Then each student had a certain number of points he had to reach by taking the tests off the book

I'd always do the little search thing to find the highest point books and I found that one,

I almost read War & Peace o_O

Have your ever read Swan Song by Robert McCammon? Now that's worth the time, my favorite book ever.

Nope, Ever heard of a book called Andersonville?

HATED That book, But it was 90 something points and I could all finish my sememter reading if I passed the test

Haha, guy, we do the same thing here in ga.

I read les miserables... the unabridged version. 1260 pages.

... 110 points or something ridiculous like that.

Night starbs. I "may" be here... when you get back.

I bought a new book today, and also bought a 3 in 1 potty for the little mini me little cheeks.

Ooh... wait.

... 3 in 1 potty..!

... how the heck does that work?

Did you also pick up "everybody poops?"

I didn't Buy anything, But I did break in my new Nike's with a 2 mile run this morning

Ooh. Shopping list. I did go shopping today. Got my chubby bunny (... my little brother. He hates me for this) some clothes.

Then I went back and got a pair of sunglasses, a sweater, and a necklace.

ooh...wait.

...3 in 1 potty...?!?

...how the heck does that work?

did you also pick up "everybody poops?"

Maybe it's, for pee, for poo, and then cleans up after itself. Now that would be cool. :)

Joe, some potty training advice from an old pro. Don't use pull ups, it doesn't work, they're just glorified diapers. Go straight to underwear, if he has an accident he'll learn allot faster if he's allowed to feel it. Sydney wore pullups for 5 months, and wouldn't go potty at all. I put underwear on her, she was trained in one day, no lie. Good luck, he's growing up. :)

3 in one. Complete as its own potty, then take it apart the one piece fits on the toilet and then the bottom part turns into a big step so its easier for them to climb up. Lol

Alty thanks for the advice. I also hear that boys are lot harder and lot longer to train but this guy is so independent wants to do everything on his own and the adult way. Maybe its time for some underwear, oh the mess, but good way to learn quickly wooo hoo.

Bought James van Praag book. The co producer and writer of Ghost Whisperer.

Like things like that.

he'll learn allot faster if he's allowed to feel it.

... hope this doesn't apply to all aspects of life or jared's in for one interesting childhood...

I've heard of the ghost whisperer... not praag though... may have to look into it.

... I'm not sure how I was potty trained.

... I believe the tools used included banana leaves, a match, and push pins.. . not sure how they all worked together, or if they did, as I still use adult diapers.

Oh you know on the instructions they have warnings , etc..

The last warning almost made me choke and laugh and think why they think there are stupid people in the world.

The last warning was. This is not for adult use. Like Duh...

Okay Joe, you made me do this, I've been waiting for an opportunity to share these gems;

On Sears hairdryer:
Do not use while sleeping.
(Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)

On a bag of Fritos:
You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.

Guy... My wife and I love Clive Cussler, we have all his books in our library... love his style. I actually started a thread about him and his books some time ago...

Stringer

Stringer sweetie, how are you dear? I feel like I haven't talked to your forever. :(

good lord. ...where do you find these guys?

my reading list...

currently sitting in my bookshelf:

surgical manuals...medical journals...My Life by clinton, shakespeare...sophocles...dante...aeneid...a lot of new york times' best sellers...

Aaaaaaaah... Clinton? Why?

Got to run. Sad, Stringer shows up and I have to leave, that's so not fair.

Goodnight all, sleep well, I'll be back tomorrow, or maybe later tonight. I'm tired though so probably not, it's already 11pm and I have allot to do tomorrow.

Be good, I'll be watching. :)

Clinton, why? Is the question of the day.

I actually like to read all sorts of books... ny's best sellers... ny's worst sellers (some of them aren't bad at all... really, I truly like them)...

I got to say, though, clinton's bib... isn't really all that cracked up.

My current bathroom read is called "stiff: the life of a cadaver"... comical. Next on the reading list: A Thousand Suns Splendid Suns. Can't wait.

Night alty!!

Sneezy,

I truly wish I had more time to selectively pleasure read. Actually Marta and were out tonight and she brought it up in our conversation that I should find the time as I used to. She remembers me being a lot more gentle and relaxed when I read what I chose to instead of trade and training seminar info. She did add that I am still the only man for her and she continues to love me even though I may sometimes stress... you know how it is...

We probably have over 250 books in our loft that we turned into a great library. I do need to take more time to do the things I really want to do... we'll see..

Stringer

Sneezy, I just loved those warning labels...

Wow, that was kind of man-hating actually.

Wow, that was kinda man-hating actually.

Hi needkarma, where have you been? Good to hear from you.

I don't hate men at all, but just as most men like 'blond' jokes, I like a good laugh at 'men' jokes now and then.

I hope you know me better than that dear.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_11_2.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)

But it was so funny NK! ;) I needed a few good laughs! Thanks Momma C! :D

Yes, thanks. I too needed some laughter!

Hey, don't you think that the author is me! OK!

Thank you Chery, you made me laugh today... more please.

Stringer

Mornin all... :)

Mornin Chicky... more like G'nite! I had a scary thing happen lastnite, and had the cops here again... grrrrrrrr! All's fine now, but I haven't slept all night, and once again, the cops were such a help! ::yeah NOT::

I have things to do today, and I'm going to be like a walking zombie!

Oh Starby... you rest. Check in later and tell me that you slept, K?

I'm going to try and get a couple hours in anyway. Poor Alty, I kept her up on the phone until the cops arrived. She's going to be tired too! It all happened between 2 and 3 this morn!

You can call me too, you know... if you ever can't get her. :)

Morning ladies,

Sorry to hear it was a rough night starby.. I'll bring my paintball gun up and we can have a stakeout...

I'll put the paintballs in the freezer ;)

Ooo... ooo... can I come? I love shooting people with paintball guns... :D

Awww, thanks Chicky! I will email you later, and give you my # too.

This whole thing with my ex still pops up every now and then. The whole thing with my vehicles being torn up and the vandalism in my yard, which just so happened it wasn't him the last time.

I get prank calls in the middle of the night. I was getting them for a long time, but they seemed to stop for quite awhile until lastnite/morn. They are always in between midnite and 7am. Most often I get them around 3am... that's when the bars let out. It's always from a private #, and the cops have records at least an inch thick, of all of these calls. They haven't done anything to trace them, and the company will not let me do it. They always tell me to call the police, and then the police tell me to call the company. It's a great big circle jerk.

What happened lastnight to scare me, was my phone rang right around 3am. Private # again. They called back many times, and the last time I answered, they whispered "I'm watching you". Niki was outside, and all of a sudden she went crazy barking! I very cautiously opened the door to let her in, and she came running in, still barking at the door. I tried to lock my door, and found there was something wrong with my lock. It just wouldn't latch. So right now, I have got a bunch of furniture blocking my back door!

It freaked me right out! I have an unlisted #, so I'm figuring this is the work of my ex again. I don't know why he just doesn't get a life! But he's done some bad things to me before, and it scares me!

Seriously, Starby. If you feel the need to get away, fly yourself down here to Clearwater. Make it a girl pampering vacation at the beach... Seriously.

Oh God, I wish I could afford that right now. Even just the plane ticket, and a bit of spending money. I've got friends in Englewood and Venice, and of course my parents have their house there too. But, I just can't afford it, and it just sucks having to put up with this crap all of the time.

Sorry... Did I say "GOOD MORNING"? :) I'm just a bright ray 'o sunshine, aren't I?

I better go crash for a bit like I said before! Have a good day all!

Sleep well, dear. My door is always open :)

Starby, that makes me angry. There is no way to escalate the call you have into the police? That's harassment and borderline stalking - I'm appaled that they won't do anything.

I told you starbs, call the cops and say, "Oh, don't worry about that guy...I just shot him and hid him somewhere in my house."

That's when they start doing stuff.

Sorry you had another roughie starbs.

Hello biggie. Hello hc. I was awakened this morning around 7am with the sound of what can only be described as a jet engine next to my bedroom.. . it was the construction people, putting in another elevator next door.. . fan... tastic. I'm off for a run. Be good kids. I'll check back in later.

Awww gosh Starby, sorry he is such an A-HOLE! Hugs and love... AND Good morning:)

Hi Alty,Starby,Start,HC,Stringer,Joe,Sneezy,Frien,big B,Chery... Not sure if Rae,Albear and Kae are here,but hi anyway.

Thanks for the invite Alty
Am I at the right place?:D
Oh no this isn't the castle,is this the zoo?

Hi Firmy,

Welcome to the bunny binky room. This is where we kick up our heels and dance around. :) The castle is fun too, but much darker and mysterious than this place. It's confusing to have two discussion threads going on at the same time. I'm tired. :)

Hey there Starby! Goodness, this touched a chord with me. First suggestion is get a new "unlisted" number. Be very careful as to who you give it to. I know it sounds elementary. When we went through some bad stuff, it was suggested to me and I didn't do it because I was concerned it would escalate things if he could not make the calls. We had our house set on fire, our daughter's car blown up in our drive way, red paint poured on our white car, lots of death threat phone calls and paper left on our porch with threats in code. Sounds like something out of a book I know but until you live something like you are living through, no one can identify. I had people ask me, "What did you do to him to make him so angry?" I would rely with disgust in my voice, "Breathe??????" We had no idea until years later when members of his family called and requested permission to visit with me. They said they had no idea what he was doing until he started doing it to them. They also told me that he was jealous of our family. I can't wrap my mind around that kind of jealousy but it exists. Most people look at things like we do, 'there has to be a reason' but that is not the case with some people who are not quite balanced in their thinking.

The fear factor is what the caller is wanting and calling to do to you. That is not to say, not to worry BUT do take precautions and DO take this serious. However, when he calls best thing is not to respond, just hang up. Most callers are wanting to instill fear. The person who said, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself" was not quite accurate. There is a lot to fear in this world.

Bottom line Starby, take care of you!!

When we called in the police when we received the written death threat, we did not know we could get a copy of the report. It was not until a year later and when we read it, there were 12 things that were wrong. Some examples were: Their white Chevelle burned!! We have never owned a white Chevelle and it was our daughter's red Turbo Sprint that was blown up, no mention of that. It stated my husbands position at work inaccurately and many other facts were totally wrong, so do get a copy of all reports you make and if they are not accurate, demand they fix it. I said, "No wonder the detectives didn't take us seriously after reading this......it is all wrong."

Then when we asked to see the death threat note, found out it was missing from the evidence room. When we addressed this with the Chief of Police, he said, "We lost your evidence, so sue us." The guy doing this stalked my daughter and myself for two years. His brother was in politics. His brother-in-law was on the police force. Go figure. We tried to obey the laws of the land, so to speak. The DA told us, there was no match up on voice print or fingerprints. However, another employee in that office got us off to the side and said it was a definite match to the suspect.

All my energy for two years went into keeping my kids alive, going out each morning, making the kids stay in the house and checking for bombs or any kind of explosives under the car, under the hood, then would start the engine and let it run, before allowing them out of the house.

Result... the police made a deal for the guy to help get evidence against his brother-in-law on the force and we were told, "The B_______ family has our guarantee they will never again be touched by this man." He never paid in anyway. He is still in our town but we have not been bothered again by him.

Best result, my children are now grown with families of their own in our states and other towns so I feel some better. The man had an incestuous relationship with his daughter. There were reports made by others of things he did but still... he was not arrested nor did he lose his job. Nothing.

I have seven journals I wrote during that time but cannot even look in them. I know your fear. You don't know who for sure nor do you know for sure they will not do something. I pray for your safety. Chances are they are getting off just knowing they are terrorizing you but let me tell you, some people would say to us, "Oh, I don't think he would really do anything, do you?" AAAAAAAAAAAAaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh shucks no... he just burned our house, blew up our daughter's car, threatened to blow her head off phone call after phone call but I am sure he would never REALLY hurt us!" That is CRAZY. But let me say this, unless a person lives this kind of terror, they cannot fully understand. I DO!

I felt it was up to me to protect them although at one time, there was a Federal agent who had 25 plain clothes policeman at a function where my daughter was being honored. That did help. The man was there and walked right up in the face of the agent and the officer, assigned to stay with me and just stopped, my daughter close by, and smiled and walked away. Hand on guns, they could do nothing.

Hang in there. Nothing lasts forever. Starby, I know you have a lot of friends here who have offered support..........I do the same. PM me or whatever you need to do to deal with this, venting, crying, screaming.

When this first began, I thought all were asleep in my home. I was in the bathroom just crying so hard, so scared for me kids. My daughter came quietly in, opened the door, hugged me and I said, "C_______, I know this goes against everything I have ever taught you but if he touches you, I will kill him with my bare hands." She said, "Mama, there is nothing he can do to me that will be near as bad as what God will do to him." Goodness. Out of the mouthes of babes! I felt ashamed but it was a tough deal to go through. Out of this though, my chidlren learned that you can question any one in any position of authority, they have the right. They are to do it with respect but they can stand before anyone, adult or whatever and stand firm. That has helped them in their lives, I firmly believe.

I have one more thing to share but will do so on next note... this one might be too long.

Hi Alty,Starby,Start,HC,Stringer,Joe,Sneezy,Frien,big B,Chery...Not sure if Rae,Albear and Kae are here,but hi anyway.

Thanks for the invite Alty
Am I at the right place?:D
Oh no this isnt the castle,is this the zoo?

Hi firmy.. you are in the right place... better late than never - glad you made it.

Hi Alty,Starby,Start,HC,Stringer,Joe,Sneezy,Frien,big B,Chery...Not sure if Rae,Albear and Kae are here,but hi anyway.



Hi Firmy! :) Nice to see you!

Thought this might help you understand that I do understand your frustration. I was told when I get a call to dial a certain number and the call would be automatically traced. Ok... we did this many times. They were always, of course, pay phones but one time, I got a call on Monday, called the detective. He said, no, that trace had not come in yet. I called the phone company. They said, "Oh yes, it is in. We get them within minutes but I can't give you the results have to give to the detective." I told her I understood and thanked her. I called the next day and the next day... "No Jan, that trace still isn't in but I will keep checking..............called again and again. Finally, on Friday, the GREAT DETECTIVE calls and says, "Jan, well, we finally got that trace in. It was made from a pay phone on the outside of the Country Club Apts. Now, he either lives there or is going there to make the calls." Well Starby, you could have floored me. What great detective work. I wonder where he went to class to figure that one out.

They couldn't of course arrest the guy unless they caught him doing something. We were told to get his trash (to get some finger prints to compare to the ones on the death threat note that they did lose), when they put it out for pick up as it is then not private property to them. One of our friends walked point in Nam and he said he could do it and they would never know it. He was there before daylight. The trash was out by the street for pick up. All that was in the can was a dirty personal item and a doctor appt. card. That was it. I wonder who tipped the guy off??????

Well, I will apologize for taking up so much time on the thread to vent our situation but I am hoping, although it doesn't stop your situation, perhaps it might help, knowing others do know what you are going through and feel it along with you. Little consolation. But anyway Starby, the frustrations of getting anything done is astronomical and some times, it is just the way the law is written that ties the cops hands yet then there are those detectives like this guy who makes such statements, you wonder how in the world..........yes, I did tell him I knew the trace had been in since Monday. He ended up being forced to resign.....not because of mishandling our case but for using office phone for personal business. At least he is out of there!

Best to you. Sorry I have rambled so..............Love and Hugs and tons of prayers for protection over you and your property and peace in your heart! LOVE!

One more suggestion, when possible, have a witness to all conversations you have with authorities. Record the guys voice if possible for voice print.

When I asked for a restraining order, the detective said, "Oh, let's wait on that for awhile." At that time, I didn't realize I could insist and should have."

Hi Alty,Starby,Start,HC,Stringer,Joe,Sneezy,Frien,big B,Chery...Not sure if Rae,Albear and Kae are here,but hi anyway.

Hi Firmy! How are your projects coming along? Been missing seeing you on Messenger lately but my time to go to bed has changed abit and with our times being so different, just hasn't worked out. Glad to see you posting here. :p :p :p

Starby..

When I was going through something similar, I got a mobile phone and only gave the number to those who needed to contact me.

Also, every time I leave the house, even today, I hold my keys in my hand (a key between each of my fingers close to my knuckles,pointing outward) to poke at anyone's face if I feel threatened. Good thing you have your doggy to give you warnings.

If you have friends or neighbors that might have extra safety locks somewhere, ask if you can use them for a while. I would also ask them if they see anything suspicious - the more people involved to watch - the safe you might be. There is no shame in asking for help and it might surprise you how many people are willing to support you in this.

As for calling the police, this might sound funny, but I would tell them that I just hit someone with my baseball bat (which I kept near my bed at night and near the door during the day) and that they should come and collect the injured person that invaded your privacy - that might make them come by quicker. I don't know the laws in Canada or if there are Safe Houses and Support Groups for this, but if there are, register with them and get yourself a sponsor that you can contact when you feel threatened.

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this, it's stressful and un-called for.

IMO whoever is doing this honestly needs to be bashed with a baseball bat - so get one..

Wishing I were there to help and comfort you dear,

Rebbie, wow, wow, that's all I can say. I've been stalked before, by an ex, but never to that degree. He just sent things to my house all the time, flowers, cards, gifts, calling non stop, I miss you, I need you, you're mine. I never had to call the police, I just arranged to meet with him and told him point blank that it was over. It worked for a while, years actually, but then, the day before my wedding, he called (hadn't talked to him in 5 years) and said "When you realize that I'm the only one for you, call me, I'll be waiting". That was 13 years ago, and I haven't heard from him since. Whew!

Starby, keep doing what you're doing, call the police even though they don't seem to be doing anything, write a journal, do what Rebbie said, she's been there, she knows more than any of us.

Stay safe Starby, and I'm here, anytime, I'm glad you listened and called me, it's never to late or too early, when you need me I'm here, day or night, got it? ;)

Alty,Chery,HC,
Thank you for the welcome.

Jan,
That is so scary,I am so glad you and your family are safe from this man.He sounds like a really twisted person.

Starby so sorry to hear about all the troubles that you continue to have. Hope everybody here has helped in some way. Hope things get taken care of. So you do not have to worry about anything anymore.

Take care,

Joe

Hi rebbie, good to see you on here, and ramble on hon, because this is serious stuff and the more information people get, maybe the safer they will think and get a chance to survive longer.

My exhusband used to love to beat me, and after our divorce, I would allow him to pick up our daughter and visit with her when he had the time. Things were fine for a few years that way, until he got reassigned back to the U.S. from his Army unit in Frankfurt, Germany. Exactly one day before his flight left, I was attacked at my front door by two strangers. They beat me, bashed my head against the wall (had 7 skull fractures, maxilla fractures, broken zygomatic arch and internal bleeding). Even though it was payday and I had money in my purse, it was not touched, neither did they attempt to rape me, so after reporting to the police, (they still have not found the perpetrators afer 20 years) I did a little research myself (after surgery and recovery period) and found out that he paid a contract out on me just to beat the heck out of me as a good-bye gift. I have metal loops in my head and you can still see hairline indications of the damage done - not to mention the surgery, pain, and recovery time (both physical and mental)

I found this out by going to his old unit (nobody knew me there) and flirted with a few of his buddies at the club. After a few nights of this, one of them told stories of what old Bill dreamed of doing to his ex-wife before he left the country. So, there is great police work done all over the world - that benefits more criminals than victims.

Sometimes we just have to take care of a few things ourselves when pushed too far.

I could not prove what the young soldier said, and my ex was already back in the U.S. so no charges were brought up there. The germans did promise to 'interrogate' him if he ever came back to Germany - a lot that would have helped.

I still have my baseball bat readily available and a knife under my bed, and will worry about the police later if I'm still alive to tell them my side of the story. Some women are not that lucky.

So Starby.. the more people that are aware, the safer you'll be and I sincerely hope that you have better times real soon.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_33_1.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)
Yes, it's still the Bunny Room... and we are all safe and with friends here!

Starby,Alty,Chery,Jan...
Stay safe.
Maybe have someone's number(anyone who can be with you in a hurry and also help you fight whoever wants to hurt you) on speed dial.

Good luck!

I was lucky... I only had to go to the cops twice... course, my stalker ex was in the military and when I threatened to go to his superior officer (and thereby effectively ruin his military career), he virtually quit. Starby... you have our support... and we are all here.

Did I ever send my number to you? Can't remember... going to do that right now... just in case.

My ex got himself kicked out of the Army under psychological reasons. He did this so that he would not have to pay child support as this came out automatically from his monthly paycheck. After that, he never had a steady job. That was his other way of paying me back - not thinking that he was only depriving his child. Some people are just not as rational as we would wish they were. That all is in my past, and my daughter is a wonderful,loving mother herself now.

We all have our chapters in life - and I am glad that I can share some of the experiences if it helps just one person to be alert and happier in their life.

Lots of Hug to you all.

Violence touches so many lives, it's truly astonishing to hear of so many people who've been beaten, stalked, harmed because of someone they knew. It's a scary world, one would think that the police (people who are paid to serve and protect) would take these matters more seriously. I was raised to believe that police were good people, and that I could always count on them if I was ever in trouble. I want to believe that the there are good cops out there, ones that won't stop until they find the person responsible for crimes that are committed. Alas, that belief is slowly draining. Maybe there are one or two out there that actually care, but the majority are lazy and won't do anything until someone actually dies, even then they don't do as much as they should.

Starby, stay safe. You have my number, and I'm here for you. Unfortunately you live 5 hours away, and I wouldn't be able to get to you quickly, but, if you ever need me, I'll be there in a flash, I'll do my best to be by your side. Know that, you are a friend, and I'll do my best for you, whatever it is you need, just ask. :)

Yes, it's still the Bunny Room... and we are all safe and with friends here!

Thank you Chery! I was concerned what all I shared might have been a little much for this thread but I think it does help for others to know some of what some go through so others know we do feel compassion in a deeply felt way. One of the most difficult things for me was feeling that I was in this all alone, except for the Lord. It was just He and I, protecting, loving, caring! So many just didn't want to hear, didn't want to help, didn't want to know there are things like this that happen to good people who have not done anything to bring it into play. For them, they needed to know how this can happen if we had not done anything to bring it on. For that, there are no answers I could give them because I did not understand it either.

I had one girl sit down beside me at an outdoor function and say, "Jan, I would really love to sit with you but I am afraid of being shot." I just told her I understood. At least she talked to me and acknowledged something was going on and not just ignoring it.

I am so sorry you had to go through that horribly frightening experience, plus the physical pain. The body heals but the spirit, not so quickly sometimes. Fear is a horrible thing to live with. I have a favorite scripture that says, "God does not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." and I use that quite often to realize, there are things I fear but I don't have to allow the fear to take over every facet of my being and at times, during those years, it did. I would get a phone call saying, "I am going to blow your oldest kid's head off s o o n, s o o n, s o o n!" I was busy getting it recorded, traced, then when he hung up, I would just fall to the floor shaking and crying... not if the kids were here because I needed to be strong for them but it was difficult ( I would shake but not be emotional, couldn't make my body not shake). I can't imagine getting beaten by people you didn't know and you were so amazing to find out the way you did, the truth. It is as you say, the officials may never do anything even if he is in Germany but you were pro active in your own behalf. I admire that so much Chery! What a woman you are!!

Thank you for sharing and I know Starby and others will appreciate it also. Sort of a kinship and there is strength in numbers... the more people that we realize have traumas, we can be that much more supportive of each other! I think it is also such a testimony to perseverance to know this because we also see the light-hearted people here and knowing what some have gone through or are going through, and yet see they are survivors and strong people, enjoying love, laughter, and friendship!! Reaching out is good!

Starby,Alty,Chery,Jan...
Stay safe.

Sweet Alty, there truly are some amazing police officers out there! It is not as we were brought up to believe that all cops are good though as you say. One plain clothes officer was assigned to me at one time. The guy came up. She stayed between he and me and between he and my daughter later, with hand on weapon. Everything I know about this officer through the years has been good. One detective gave me his word, he would take care of the guy and end this thing. I believe he meant it but he was fired soon after and from the details I know, it was those in control that were protecting this guy stalking us, that fired him. So, even though there are good and bad in all professions, too many times, it is the ones calling the shots that limit the really caring and good officers and they get frustrated and eventually find other professions. To all those out there who do care and do a great job, I take my hat off to you and ask that if possible, you hang in there, even though the higher ups, try to discourage you. WE NEED YOU!

Hi everyone! I'm so sorry it took me so long to respond, but puter is acting up again today. It was working half ways decent before, but of course when I REALLY want to get on to talk you y'all, it craps out on me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!. TO ALL OF YOU... for your support and kind loving words and support! I can't even find the words myself to tell you just how much I appreciate all of you!! ::tears whelling up::

I was so scared lastnite, and felt helpless really. The cops took forever to get here, and they really did a whole lot of nothing once again, like I said. They took their report, and told me they would make occasional drive by's in my neighborhood. WOOHOO! I even screamed at them and asked what the hell it has to take to get their attention! Finding me dead on my floor probably. This has been going on for sooooo long now (over a yr and a half) and it is really just getting to me!

I do have 2 by 4's, that are always sitting at the front and back doors. I sleep with my keys everynite, because I can press the emerg button for my van alarm. I have set off my smoke detector deliberately to sound an alarm. I have told all of my neighbors, and they are very kind, but not usually up at 3am when most of this stuff happens. I am scared to change my phone #, because sometimes that at least gives me a heads up! I have "beware of dog" signs everywhere, I have security system signs (although I don't have one, and can't afford one) I have even slept with a knife under my pillow, although I don't really sleep. I've tried everything I can think of, that is within my means, yet the cops still refuse to do anything.

The proof of them doing nothing, and the legal system doing nothing, is the $500 fine that my ex got for forcing his way into my house, breaking my ribs, cheekbone,bruising my lung, and reinjuring my hip. Do I really have to wonder why some people go the vigilante route? Do they ever wonder? I have a good and trusted friend that works for the police force. He is one of the good guys, and is so sick of the politics and the lack of judgement and support from fellow officers, that he is wanting to take an early retirement. Unfortunately, he is in a different division, and can't help me with my problems, because of those politics and all of the mumbo jumbo that goes on with the police force.

This post is getting too long, so I will carry on with another, because I have more to say, especially to Rebby and Momma C.

I just would like to say again... Thanks so much you guys! I appreciate your support more than you will ever know! :)

Hey starby
So sorry to hear about your situation , really wish there was something I could do for you.

Anyway you know we're all here for you in any capacity we can be.

First of all, my dear sweet Rebby! I sat in shock reading what has happened to you and your family! OMG!! I can't even grasp it to imagine what that must have been like! That guy is mentally ill! He should've been institutionalized! For you and your children to live in fear like that is unimaginable, and unspeakable! What the hell has this world come to, when you can't even get correct police reports, or when someone in the dept. is stealing evidence?! I'm soooooo very so that you had to go through all of that Rebby. You are one of the sweetest people on the face of this earth, and to have some maniac make you live in fear, is... well... just more than I can comprehend.

Momma C,. sweet, never hurt a fly Momma C! I will send you an email with more words, but you have had a really hard time, and had some nasty uncaring people in your life. It really makes you wonder what made them this way, and how their brains (if they have one) work! They obviously have an awful tormented and delusional view of people and the world around them. I will write you more a bit later okay?. I just can't come up with the words right now, I am so flabergasted with sheer lack of human caring that these people have.

Is it just me?. or does there seem to be a pattern here. My ex was in the British Army. He was in Bosnia, and in Afganistan, but mostly on peace missions, clean up, or reserve. Seems a little odd to me, that all of these people that have done these things we are talking about, were in the military... doesn't it?

Hey starby
So sorry to hear about your situation , really wish there was something i could do for you.

Anyway you know we're all here for you in any capacity we can be.

Thamks Batman! Could you maybe call Batgirl, and all of the evil Superhero's to come help? LOL!

::ah... ahh... ahhh... CHEE!::

... hi everyone! ::sniffle::

Thanks Batman!! Could you maybe call Batgirl, and all of the evil Superhero's to come help?? LOL!!

These guys can probably help :)

Starby, I really wish there was something that I could do to make you safe. Every time I hear this sort of thing I cringe and get really pi**ed off. I don't have a solution. The only thought I have is; can you possibly play his game to some extent? If you could get your really good friend with the police department (I realize he can't do anything with the politics as is) to maybe do the "works" on him? I don't usually think along these lines but you need serious help.

What I am suggesting is; sit down w/ your friend, have a long discussion again the situation hon. When he again says that there is nothing he can do legally... say to him "legally?" He will begin to get the drift, as they say. Making this shorter... simply ask him if he or anyone he knows can "set up" your ex? In my opinion he certainly deserves it and nothing else is going to work at this point... maybe not hurt him physically but whatever...

Maybe your friend who I'm sure... knows people hon. People that can somehow "set him up" for something that will put him away for a while. And he will never know who it was. Or, maybe your friends "friends" can simply pay him a visit...

Just a few things I dug up from my younger years... and when some good people needed some extra help... from "friends."

I never "ran" with these kind of people, but I knew them and they knew me... wasn't a bad relationship.

When I discovered that my first wife was running around on me, I was devastated, truly devastated. A short while later a friend of mine wanted me to go to a bar that was a little shady, shall we say, for a drink. After a hour or so this monster of a guy put his hand on my shoulder and said are you... "stringer?" I turned and looked up at a 90 degree angle just to see his face. He looked like a professional wrestler.

He told me, "your wife is seeing a guy named Paul Carol he drives a while Buick and lives at......and so on." "He will not be seeing your wife or any one for some time." I said what.. My friend said, "turn around and drink your beer "stringer" he had it coming...I said "what the h*ll?" Bottom line Starby, they broke both of his knee caps.

I was shocked and did not approve of any of this....my friend said "drink your beer, there are wittinesses that know you were here when it happened... I have never forgotten this. There is a whole different world out there that most of us don't know about.

I am not suggesting that you have any of this done to anyone, seriously... I just know that sometimes it takes fire to fight fire... for your own protection hon.

I get the duck...

.. what's with the cow friend?

Hee hee... I like the cow... don't think he would scare anyone too much though... but gave me a giggle anyway! :D

That duck just scares me... please don't send him after me to make me into dinner! ::waaaaaaa::

Got a cold Sneezer? Ahhh... Ahhhhh... Chooooooo!. ewwwww, you got it all over me Sneezy... ewwwwww!

I get the duck...

..what's with the cow friend?

Just for a giggle sneezy... we can all do with a giggle right :p

Good night all...

Thanks String Man! ;) I do know what you mean, and I do have some friends that... lets just say... if they ever see him in a dark alley, he better have on his sneakers!

As for my cop friend, he said he will try his best to do anything and everything for me that he can. He said unfortunately, they are very few of the older and trusted members of the force still around, because they got tired of the young inexperienced, want to carry a gun, want power and control, rookies! Unfortunately, those are the ones that always show up at my door when I call. So a lot of the good guys have just gotten fed right up and taken early retirement.

I have talked to my friend... and his wife who is a good friend, about all of this. But Norm is a straight by the book kind of guy. He really wants to help anyway he can, but he isn't the type that will go beyond the law, so to say. He might break a rule here and there, but he is old school. I like old school... but I wish he could be "Corleone" old school, if you know what I mean!! LOL!

I felt a lot safer here when I had neighbors on both sides. The guy that used to live on one side of me moved, but he would hear every bump in the night, and either call me, or just come over and check things out. He was a professional boxer, and a pretty big guy, so I felt like I kind of had my own personal body guard until he moved. The people on the other side of me are a really young couple with a newborn, so although they are helpful sometimes, they aren't people I can count on in a pinch. I have a crack dealer and user, that lives directly behind me, that my ex buys crack from... or used to anyway. I didn't know about his drug use until right before I left. So that is kind of scary too. There are not very nice people hangin out there.

Moving isn't an option right now either, or I would. So it's just really stressful. Hopefully ex will be stolling down a dark alley sometime, at the wrong time! ;)

Just for a giggle sneezy........................ we can all do with a giggle right :p

Yessss... giggles... giggles... bubbles... bubbles... naked dancing in the rain... wait... what?? :p

G'nite Stringy! Sweet Dreams... Sleep well! :)

Hey starby,

I'm glad you finally made it on - you don't need any of puter's bs right now I can tell...

I wanted to say that I am impressed with the way you seem to be handling this. I am surprised at how positive and "normal" you appear to be with yourself after what happened last night. I commend you for being strong and keeping your head on straight - bravo.

Like everyone said, I wish there was something I could do more than talk to you on here, and if there is let me know. Hopefully this creep will get what he has coming because people like this disgust me. I don't understand what would posses you to do this to another person, especially a woman. Its disgusting.

Anyway, I hope that tonight is a better night for you. If you need anything, were all here for you :)

Thank you so much Biggie! If I could reach through my screen and hug you all, I would! :) My ex is a creep, and a loser! I feel like such a fool that I was even with somebody that was capable of these things, and I'm actually pretty embarrassed to even say it all outloud. He wasn't like that when we were together. It was only towards the very end, and it was like a Jekyl and Hyde thing. He used to be my best friend in the world, and everyone that met him, loved him. Then unbeknownst to me, he got involved with a group of young kids from work (he was their boss) and started with Coke and Crack. It totally changed him from the person he used to be, into this stark raving mad lunatic! Got to love those drug pushers eh?

OK everyone. I'm out for the night. Be back early in the morn.

Have a good one.

G'nite Sneezer! Thank you for everything! You're a doll! Lub lub lub you! More hugs, and have sweet dreams!

I missed Sneezy, sigh. :(

Starby, how are you sweetie? I've been thinking about you all day, I hope that everything is okay. Remember, I'm only a phone call away, and I've put one of my phones in the bedroom, so I'm ready if you call, anytime. :)

These guys can probably help :)

Hi everyone here also. Oh, I'm so sorry to learn your troubles starby, and chery... nasty people being so bad to you all... I hope that your trobles will vanish soon... awww, I'm helpless in my situation, about 20,000km away!

Night Sneezy!

Nite Sneezy!

Thanks dear. We all feel the same way and it's good to have support from friends here. My experience with this issue is way in the past and I have adjusted and learning how to cope with newer problems. That's just the way life deals it's cards to some of us and any time we can help with our sharing here - it assures us that we don't have to carry the load all alone.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/16/16_11_7.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)

Ha! If ever someone slips into your home, get a big cut out of him with your knife or a whack with your bat for me! OK? That'll teach them to go into other people's houses without permission.

Starbs, you are a strong woman... I know you feel frightened (or scared to death) But in all of this, I have to agree with Bigs... I am proud of the way you are handling this, and you sure do sound like you have your ducks in a row!;) Again, hugs and love to you!

Rebby, and Chery, thanks for telling us a very personal part of your lives. It helps to know (sad to know but it does help) That others have been through something and can give advice or guidance on what may come or how to deal with what has already come. You girls are the best ever, I just am sure happy you are safe and here today! Hugs and love.

Firmy, I miss you tons, I hope your new adventures are working out for the best. Hugs!

Stringer, that is a sad story... sorry you even had to know what happened, that can be a burden on its own. Hugs!

Alty, I really need to be home so I can bake and sit and talk on the puter, I have been working so much that I feel out of touch. Hugs and love to you and your family. Hope all is well with the bunnies. My bunny is doing just fine;) Thanks for your help. I know you are someone we can all count on! You are a sweetheart.
Everyone else, have a great day... off to work again;) (good thing I like my job!)
I typed so fast to get to all of you I didn't do spell check... :)

So glad you like your job starty. Can't help but miss you here though, so don't be a stranger, love.

I sometimes miss my job too - just not the illnesses and mobbing though.
It did feel good to be a productive part of society and bring home the needed cash in order to pay those bills.

TTFN,

Uhhmmm... Joe dear?. why are you saying goodnite in the middle of the day? You're confusing me more than my usual confusion, lol

Hi Firmy! I haven't talked to you in a little bit.

Hi Unky (Island Boy ;) )... you can probably call Friend, Batman. I'm usually the only one that calls him that... lol... but be prepared, I usually change his name once a month or so, depending on my mood!! LOL! :D Joe started it! :p

Hi Chicky girl, Sir Sneeze, Momma C, Rebby girl, Biggie, uhmmm... who else is here? I hate when I forget anyone!. I haven't seen Alty yet! A big group HEEYYYYYY!!

I'm feeling really dizzy today... more than my normal blonde days... LOL!. just set myself up for blonde jokes didn't I! I still have this stupid ringing in my ears, and my left ear feels plugged and is making me a bit off balance... driving me just a little nuts! Uuurrrggghhh!

I usually say night, because I do not plan on going on the computer. Early sign telling everybody won't be around again for a while. Guess I just like to confuse, Uhm Nighty night folks. Just wanted to say hi and bye kind of thing. I know I go on spurts from being on here all the time to sparignly.

Joe

Haha... okay! Well... uhmmm, night then Joe. You shouldn't confuse dizzy blonde girl like that! LOL!

Hi start! I don't think you know me... I just came by recently, though having once or twice had a glimpse of the threads and i saw you pretty often. Hope we'll b friends!

Sure we will, give me some time, and we can get to know each other;) I am missing my puter time.
Hi you Joseph... miss you and our chats:)
Chery, hugs back at you, I will never be a stranger, just more of a straggler;)
Hope all is well with everyone!:D I have Thursday at home, so it will be puter and laundry for me!

Stringer

Hi you Stringer! :) I have missed your "daily specials" and of course you too;)
How are you?

Stringer, I'd never forget you. Now do you want to help me catch Starduck, after all, she forgot you, that would be bittersweet revenge, and a tasty dinner. :)

Hi Starty sweet, how are you my friend? I feel like we really haven't had allot of chit chat time lately. Do you still have my email? Email me some time, I'll send you some cute pics. :)

Hellooo alty.

... can't sleep. Been tossing and turning for the past hour. Ruh roh?

Ruh roh? What's ruh roh? I'm confused.

Ruh roh?

Uh oh in scooby doo?

Ah, duh, sorry, Alty blonde moment, even though I'm a brunette. My ex used to say "Blonde isn't a hair color, it's a state of mind". Once in a while I must admit, I get in a blonde state of mind. ;)

Sadly Sneezy, you are here and I must go. I'm tired, been cleaning all day and have another day of cleaning ahead of me. Yawn, I can't keep my big brown eyes open any longer. I'll talk to you tomorrow sweet, drink some wine and try to get some sleep. You have to be awake for the mcats. :)

Alty out.

Night alty.

I'll hold down the fort while you are out.

... which means... I get to yell at teenage girls who want kids... and answer the repetitive "can I be pregnant" and "What's this on my penis?" questions.

Aaaaaaah hummmm..clears his throat........

Yikesssss! :eek: :eek:... ::running fast::... where do I hide... where do I hide?. Silly String is chasing me... It's everywhere... everywhere I look... more Silly String... :eek:... no where to hide... there is Silly String in the corridors... Silly String in the dungeon... even Silly String in the kitchen!. oh noooooooooooooooooo... :eek:... they are planning on tying me up with Silly String!. I feel faint... it 's getting dark... it's getting warm in here... it's getting hot in here... I'm taking off all my clothes... oh noooooooooooo... they are fooling me... ::QUACK:: ::QUACK::... oh nooooooooo... now I'm running around the castle naked... they've plucked everything but my tail feathers... that will give me speeeeeeddd... ::running:: ::running::... ::flying::... I've got tail wind... but I'm flyyying!

Oh never mind... I'm in the bunny binky room... it was just a bad dream! :D

Hey there guys I'm MG. You guys don't know me because I've just joined recently. Well, it was yesterday, the day that I think I've read the most in my life in a single day! Let's just say that I had nothing better to do but sit around and do nothing. (It was one of those days... ) I was searching for some answers about working out and the result brought me to this page. Anyway, I found the answers to be quite impressive. The answer was by sneezy and tal. So I became curious and looked at their profile and found a post that read: " I'm doing NC". I've never heard of the term so I looked at it and read... read and read. It was an amazing "adventure" that sneeze pulled off. From the first to the last I read. Even the advice given by the people.

I felt as if it was giving me a heads up. Even though nothing on that thread had nothing to do with me, I thought it can be used for me in the future. What to think and how to act in those certain or similar situations. It taught me life lessons about people and how $hit happens and the only thing we can do is adapt. I'm sorry Alty if I bothered you by posting this on your thread. But I just saw it as the only way to tell you guys thank you for helping even though it was indirectly... but hey... isn't that what this site is about? I just want to congratulate sneezy on what he accomplished and how he did it. And sorry for reminding you about the whole thing again...
Thanks for reading. Well I have to go to sleep because I have to work tomorrow!

Later, MG.

BTW: You guys seem like really cool people... :D

Welcome MG! Glad you found us crazy people! ;) Come back anytime you want! By the way, I own this castle... Alty just holds the papers in her vault!!

Alty, we have new victim!. Muwahahahahahahaha!

Hi MG! Glad you found the thread! I'm sure that sneezy will be impressed! ;) And morning starby, alty, sneezy, *hum who else?* stringer? Hum softy? Hum starty? Baitman? Helper? Guy? Am I missing anyone? Or adding any who are not here but in the castle!! Two threads is indeed a bit confusing...

Yikesssss!! :eek: :eek: .......................::running fast::.........................where do I hide................where do I hide??????????..............


Little did I know this would end up with you running around naked...

I don't know what to think ;) :D

^ Sure! What strange nightmare. Better suits the castle, the dungeons to be precise! :)

MG: thanks

No need to apologize for it... it's been... what, 7 months? I'm over it. Yeah, this site's kind of like cocaine. Not sure how I feel about it, but I can't help it.

I'm glad you enjoyed reading my "adventure," and I'm glad it indirectly helped you. Feel free to ask me any questions.

nite alty.

I'll hold down the fort while you are out.

...which means...I get to yell at teenage girls who want kids...and answer the repetitive "can I be pregnant" and "What's this on my penis?" questions.

You'll do just fine - I have confidence in you!

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_16.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)

MG: Welcome! Yup, we're pretty interesting people... glad you made it!

We all have a story - one that led us here... helped us get to where we are... one that has shown us that life still goes on, and most often, its better than it was before! :)

We're glad you joined us!

BTW: You guys seem like really cool people....:D
You ain't seen nothing yet dear. Welcome to the site, and I enjoyed your long introduction.. at least you said something more than just hello.

Don't be a stranger and check out the rest of the site... it's better reading than some newspapers sometimes - at least we are totally unbiased here.

Aren't we folks??

At any rate, you'll not have a boring moment with us, no matter where we jump to.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_11_2.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)

Yup, unbiased. That's us.

My problem is sometimes I relate too much to a situation and end up telling my story - thinking that it will help them... sometimes it does, sometimes it just comes out as irrelevant fluff. :) But its all from my heart.

MG: Welcome! Yup, we're pretty interesting people... glad you made it!

We all have a story - one that led us here... helped us get to where we are.... one that has shown us that life still goes on, and most often, its better than it was before! :)

We're glad you joined us!

And that's the truth!

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/16/16_1_25.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZSYYYYYYMXDE)Cheese? What cheese? OOPS, sorry, 'mouse caught my tongue'.

Hi ya Stringer!!:) I have missed your "daily specials" and of course you too;)
How are ya?

I am doing fine sweet... miss our talks too...

I've had/have meetings every day this week... you know how I love 5 hour meetings.:( But, one day at a time... keeping my cool, or it all gets out of control..

But thanks for asking, is all well with you?

By the way, have you heard from any of our other friends; R, AK, Bear, Capt and so on? Miss them all... :(
Stringer

Stringer, I'd never forget you. Now do you want to help me catch Starduck, after all, she forgot you, that would be bittersweet revenge, and a tasty dinner. :)

::lifts lid::... ::coast is clear::... ::solid getaway!! :: ::tiptoe::... ::waddle, waddle::... ::whewwwww! ::... ::a clean break::

Hey Starby... how you doing today?

Hey Chicky! Not feeling so well really. I need to get to my Dr.s appt this afternoon, but I just feel so damn dizzy still. I really shouldn't be sitting on the computer either. It's giving me a headache. Uurrrgghhhh!. Whaargarbl! How are you doing?

Me? Umm... good. I'm good :)

Just finished up lunch and wondering when I should go to Starbucks... I need a caffeine shot... :)

Starbs, you got any supplements? Up your B6/B12 intake, iron intake, and folic acid intake... should give you a nice "upper" for an hour or two.

We had a horrible storm here lastnite, and now there are city trucks cleaning up my street, and the noises fromt eh trucks are echoing in my head!

I couldn't believe when I read your story about the gas station! WOW! That must have been something to see! Scary stuff!

The storm here wiped out an entire town lastnite, and took roofs off a school and community center, and destroyed mobile homes, in a town where I used to live, about 15 minutes from me now. I still haven't heard from my parents, because the phone lines are still down, but I assume I would've heard something by now if something bad happened to them. I don't get the local news, unless I'm in my van and have the radio on, so I really don't know what has all happened yet. I guess that's the bad thing about satellite TV and radio. No local news. Crazy weather!

Anyway, I should go. Have a good one, and will catch up with you later! I'll give you a call sometime Chicky, when I can actually hear what the person on the other end is saying! ;)

:) I know what you mean... the whole "hearing you" thing... Doesn't Dr. Dreamy McSneeze sound like a dreamboat? ;)

Call anytime! Hope your family is OK

starbs, you got any supplements? up your B6/B12 intake, iron intake, and folic acid intake...should give you a nice "upper" for an hour or two.

I do, I do! I'll take a B12 and an iron pill right now... and the rest of my vitamins! Thanks for reminding me! :D

I tried to read your card Sneeze, but puter froze when I tried to view it, so I will try again a bit later!. THANKYOU!! :)

Hi starbs.

Bye starbs!

Well. I have about 30 minutes to do... nothing. It's my one-hour lunch break... but I hobgobbled my chicken salad sandwich in about 5 min.

... mmm... let's see...

I'm currently in sbucks...

I spy with my shiny brown eyes...

Something white

Ooo... Ooo... are you playing Tooth Fairy again?

CRAZY weather this year! Hope your parents are okay. Keep us posted. Be careful of downed power lines if you get out and about. :eek:

Drink lots of water. Dehydration causes dizziness and with the stress you have been under, you may be forgetting to drink water... it also causes headaches! Feel better soon!

Hobgobbled... I like that word Sneezy...

Doesn't Dr. Dreamy McSneeze sound like a dreamboat?? ;)

... so... where did you want me to send your flowers to?

The college is fiiiiiine... ;) More exposure here, too!

You delivering?

Here's a question for you guys...

I need to finish the plans for a bachelor party/jack & jill party for my friend next Sunday. Trying to track down a PA/speaker system for music and a microphone since we'll be outside. Anyone have ANY IDEA where I can rent one/about how much it would cost??

I'm on it!

What kind of flowers you like?

Ah, nm. I'll surprise you.

Hmmm... in CT? Have you googled it?

Sneezy... I could... just... kiss you... :)

*SWACK*

Biggie:

You're in Connecticut... so

Audio Visual Connecticut, AV Equipment Connecticut, AV Rentals Connecticut (http://www.partypop.com/Categories/Audio_Visual_Equipment_Sound/Connecticut.htm)

I tried yellowpages.com and I got one hit, a company in chicago... Worthless.

Apparently I should have tried harder :p

Hm. Bachelor party outside..

... hope the strippers enjoy being outdoors...

...hope the strippers enjoy being outdoors...

Eh, it's a jack and jill, his fiancée is going to be there...

Wasn't my idea for the record.

They moved the wedding up a year which gave us about 2 months to plan the party. I wasn't all that happy.

All you need are 3 strippers, 3 midgets (sorry, little people), 3 kegs, and 10 lbs of wings, to have a party.

Run you about $1000 and entertains for hours.

Wow... that's quite a date change! Do you have ideas for the party itself?

LOL! Wow... that would "entertain for hours"... mental pictures are quite interesting on that one...

Well, you guys know where to get strippers, kegs, and wings from.

tinyentertainment.com hire little people for your next event. Cupids, Elves, Candy Workers, Pranks, Bachelor Parties (http://www.rentamidget.com)

Thank me later.

Ps - not work safe... I don't think.

OK, all this stripper talk is making me hungry.

... wait. Uh.

... ummm...

Well... off to study. I'll be back much later everyone. Hope everyone has a splendid Wednesday... IT'S HUMP DAY!

See you later, Sneezy! Don't study too hard... :)

I'll wait until I get home Sneezy... That would be an embarrassing thing to explain :p

Yeah, it was one hell of a date change. Personally, I think 21 is a bit too young to be getting married, but it isn't my life. Whatever they want to do.

We don't have any real hard set plans for the party yet. It was hell trying to sell tickets and get people to go. There is going to be a raffle, and were getting a couple kegs. There is a plan to have a buy in for a beer pong tournament, but I guess that depends on interest. There was going to be an ice luge but that got scrapped last minute. As for now, I'm trying to square away the sound equipment and one of the girls is helping me by organizing the food and stuff.

Aside from that, I think were okay... I hope

Sounds like you've got it under control. :)

Lets hope so :p

Stripper outside, let's hope it's warm, someone's eye could get poked out. Eeeek, was that out loud? ;)

Hi kids, I'm here for a few minutes, then back to cleaning, yuck.

It's raining, and thundering and lightning and yucky. Starby, I think we got your storm. :(

I stole all the good weather I guess :) Its about 85 and sunny here right now.

A bunch of guys from work play football after work on Wednesdays, so I'll be checking that out today :D

I'll be cleaning, cleaning, AHHHHHHHH! It's never ending.

Crappy weather is perfect cleaning weather though, maybe I'll get done today and then, if the sun comes out tomorrow, I can go out and play with the kids. :)

Like I was telling starbs...

It's 90 and sunny here. It's b-e-a-utiful. Both of you MUST come down here.

... grah. I'm studying at sbucks and someone's car alarm just went off.. . and... won't... stop. Ahhhh!!

Sneezy, go to your happy place, block out the alarm, you can do it, mind over matter. :)

Biggie, your mail box is full sweetie, time to clear it out. :)

Yes Sneezy... come to your happy place...

Bad HC, which equals good HC, at least for Sneezy. :)

Sorry... sorry... I've had waaaay too much caffeine... something about the few extra pumps of chai in my chai latte... EXTRA jolt...

And we all know that Caffeinated HC=Bad HC

(As evidenced in the Castle! :))

I like caffeinated HC, so does Sneezy, but for purely different reasons. :)

Got to go again, break's over. Chow for now Kids. :)

Ciao bella!

I'll wait until I get home Sneezy...That would be an embarrassing thing to explain :p

I think you have done a good job of making the best of a bad situation... doing fine...

Yep...

I've already done my pennance... ::blushes::

No more coffee for me today...

(at least that's the plan)

Moring Starty! So you've seen our new member of the bunny binky room huh? Thanks for the hug... though they seem cold to me...

Ohhh nananananannnnnnoooOOOOoooOOO... my hugs are really extra good you sily. AND since I haven't gotten to know you so well, like the others have, give me the low down so I know a bit about you...
Me, well, I love to bake, chat, I have four wonderful kids, and I just stopped being a stay at home mom, testing the big kids with the little ones and heading back to work for full time, slowly but surely. I miss them all very much and now I want to cry because I just said it all out loud. (I typed it... but you get the picture) Anyway, I live in the country and before I went back to work, I was here all day and got to know some really great people on this site. I can tell you fit in just fine on this thread! ;) So the low down is... I am a mother and it is what I love to be... specially with good baked goods in the oven!

Starty, you have been on my mind all evening. Hope all is well. It is difficult getting back into the work scene after being away. But we "Carry On". Right?? :p

Hope Starby is okay after the storm and that Alty didn't get the storm her way. Been thinking about them also. I miss our Friday night parties!! Always had the bike revved and ready to travel. LOL

Have a good night! :)

I'm okay Rebbie, and I think Starby is too. I've been trying to contact her, but all I get is her machine. She hasn't been feeling well lately, so I hope she's just resting.

We did get a storm, and we where under tornado watch all day, but no touchdowns, thank God.

I've got to run. Going to try Starby one more time and then I'm going to bed.

Night all. :)

Sweet Dreams Alty!! Good night or day to all our friends! I am out of here too... carriage has turned into a pumpkin, walking home on the dusty road with one shoe off and one shoe on, ready to dream my dreams! :)

Hey guys!. thanks for the warm welcome :)

Too bad I can never get you guys when you're online! :( It's just that I get off work too late and never seem to have time. Anyway... what have you guys been up to?

Well, I don't have to work tomorrow and hopefully I can squeeze some time on here and have an actual conversation :D

I guess I'll see you all later! :D Stay cool! :cool:

Welcome back MG! Well, I can be online while you are...


Ohhh nananananannnnnnoooOOOOoooOOO... my hugs are really extra good you sily. AND since I haven't gotten to know you so well, like the others have, give me the low down so I know a bit about you...

I expected a kind on answer like that to have something to type. Anyway, I said that 'cause I couldn't think of anything else except your armour! And that SEEM cold. Anyway, I too don't know you so much... lol... but that's why we're here! Anywaythanks for the hugs!

Oh, I just learnt of your storms Alty and Starby... hope that the weather gets clear soon! Here, I've been having awful gusts lately. But this morning, the weather seems to have calmed down, but still cloudy.

Well sorry that I didn't answer you... it was that I was reading the rest of the things I missed

So how are you?

Fine thanks. Sorry for the late reply. Me too was reading the things I missed. Not done yet! Still reading...

That's pretty funny... hey how does this work?
Do I refresh every now and then?

I just barely got out of work today and wondered what the replies were..
So here I am! :)

Well, I'm no more in the Bunny Binky's room. In the castle, if you know what I mean. On page 35. My page mode is on 20 posts in a page, so its easier to read, though a bit longer to load.

It's raining, and thundering and lightning and yucky. Starby, I think we got your storm. :(


That sucks... so.. is the storm really bad?

Hope you stay safe because mother nature is unpredictable!

What castle? Is it another thread or what?

Yup. The castle of the Doom. Just got over the reading. You can get lots more stuff there ;)

I bet it sounds pretty "welcoming" to me...
It's not like the name is scary or anything... (looking around with awareness)

WHAT'S THAT!!

Never mind it was just my reflection... :)

Hi folks!

Ello, what's up?

Hi CM!

MG, never mind. Make a little round if you like. I'm sure you'll like its dark dungeons and large halls and... so on.

HI there, what are you folks doing up so late? Or actually what time is it where you are?

In mauritius, its... 1.13 pm!

Lol, OK. It's 2:12am here. Where exactly is Mauritis located?

In cali it's 2:15... just got out of work that's pretty much why I'm on...

lol, ok. It's 2:12am here. Where exactly is Mauritis located?

That's what I was going to ask!:D

Well, I guess unknown is gone...
So.. how are you?

OK. YOu know the Indian Ocean? Well, Mauritius forms part of the archipel Mascarenes, near Madagascar, the second largest island on the world (well, I think so... after Greenland). Its GMT + 4 hours!

I'm good, should be sleeping, but had a random thought of something that I should post a question about so I got back online, and did... I've been so stressed lately, that I've gotten maybe three hours of sleep a night, and I see that tonight will most likely be no different.

Anyway, I see that you are new here. WELCOME! If you have any questions feel free to post them, ask a moderator or expert.

Ah ha, I see... Fantastic.

Nice... funny how everybody learns something everyday because that is the first time I hear of that place... but sounds like it's the place to be!:)

Well, I suppose its not as well developed as America.

Haha, same here.

Thanks... too bad you've stressed so much lately... it sounds very aggravating.
I'm sorry to hear that

Yeah, that's just how life is. But oh well!

Well, the sun shines nearly the whole year round, except from the cyclonic period and some storms coming now and again. Ha, that reminds me of something... about three or four months ago, there was 'torrential rainfall'. The government decided to let the students go home earlier than usual. Bad mistake, a girl got killed in a flood. The members of her family were... hooooooo... so angry at the Minister of Education...

Don't worry about it... America sounds good N' all but if you got here you'd see that it's like any other place on earth... (with a few different characteristics of course! :) )

Wow, sounds like somebody made a crucial mistake.

There are flaws in any country. We just have to live and learn.

Well, another month ago, there was another risk of 'torrential rain'. This time, the minister of educstion did nothing... I had to stay at school until the last minute with those heavy rain pouring down. I got soaked to the skin that day!

Well, I'm boring you with my stories... How about you?

Sounds like this minister isn't so great... did he get in trouble?

Well, ladies and gents... I'm about to hit the hay and pick it up tomorrow because it's everywhere... hopefully I'll be on.
I'll see you comics later! :)
BYE!

Bye MG! Night if you're going to sleep!

Goodnites and good wishes to you all!. for who's here and who isn't.


Later!.

I'm going to head to bed as well. Night all.

Night...

Night CH!

Morning all,

Wasn't on at all last night, so I missed a few pages apparently :p

How is everyone doing??
