Reply to Food Journal 10/14 in Health & Medicine JoeUser Forums

Wow great going there Tex! Congrats on healthy eating AND cutting back on the soda pop! Maybe you'd be willing to start a "low-calorie" recipe once a day with your food journal? Nothing too fancy, how about it?

Reply to What are the lamest pick-up lines used on you? in Misc JoeUser Forums

There's a couple of lines that come to mind as I read your post......here are a few of the "winners" 1 "Aren't you so and so's sister, cousin?" 2. "Didn't we meet last week at your sister''s, cousin's, party?" 3. "My friend dared me to come over and try to buy you a drink" 4. "How come none of the other gals in here are as pretty as you?"

Reply to Perhaps I talk too much? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Foreverserenity: IMHO, you're never too wordy on your responses! I love hearing from you, you're encouraging, positive, and kind. AND if we didn't agree on something, I know you'd state your position politely. There's a couple of posters here at JU that haven't responded to my posts, SO....I haven't and won't go back. Simple. and that was after checking at least 2-3 times...... I DO sometimes not respond the

Leaves raked to the curb, smoke curling up from them burning while old men lean on their rakes and talk away... the roar from the stadium on a Friday night as the local high school football teams scores another touchdown....

Reply to What kind of Monster are you? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

YOU ARE A FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER Your childhood was rough, cobbled together from this and that. You finally got a hold of what was going on, and tried to be friendly. But it didn't quite work out, no matter how hard you tried. People kept trying to harm you. Finally you struck back out of self-preservation. You never really meant to have things like this, but you were surrounded by intolerance. They would pay for the way they treated you!

Reply to Taking time off in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Dr. Guy: Sooooooooooooooo good to see you back! Have missed reading your articles and also hearing from you. I DID read somewhere, one of your blogs? or on another's blog about your leaving. NO, not on Mano's blog, somewhere else. I just mistakenly thought it would be short-lived.......seems like ages. YES, I make a point of staying out of these f

Reply to Zombie Blogs in Blogging JoeUser Forums

When I first started blogging here there were times I'd see an article in the Forums, not knowing or realizing it was an "Oldie" and go blithely commenting on it only to later read the date the article was posted and very red faced slink back to my own blog......... Now a usually read the oldies, have just stopped commenting on them unless it's quite a profound article and I want to add my two cents worth! Maybe w

Reply to Copycat Blogs or Coincidence? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I tend to think it's simply a coicindence if two blogs are about the same thing, just the other day Dharma had a neat post, complete with link, about her childhood home. Just because I've been writing about my childhood home I didn't think she had "copied my idea"!! For crying out loud.... In it she mentioned a childhood friend that she had lost and that piece of information clinched it for meto write about a childhood frien

Reply to Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut in Life JoeUser Forums

I'm afraid that responsibility will come soon enough. What you do with it is entirely up to you. Very insightful, and you're sooooooo on target, what one CHOOSES to do, feel and live IS entirely up to them NO ONE else is responsible for their feelings, and what they do.

Reply to I Don't Have A Favorite in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

Your article is soooooooo true, so very funny and also very observant of human behavior! Awesome article. Children aren't able to stand up for themselves and of course feel obligated to answer.... Geez, I thought I was in the minority cause I detest trying to answer those "favourite" kind of questions! Even with family members, they can be soooooo stubborn about my not having a favourite of something! Life is toooo

Reply to Where I grew up. in Misc JoeUser Forums

Lovely looking place to grow up in! sorry you too lost a friend in school. My best bud, Vicky, died of leukemia the year we started 8th grade sooooo sad a time..I was pretty naive at that age and sure didn't expect to lose her. I was fat, she was skinny, and we were a perfect pair, understood each other totally.

Reply to The Greatest Westerns Ever in Entertainment JoeUser Forums

Saw "How the West Was Won" back when I was in high school, we had a field trip to St. Paul to tour the Kodak film building, had a picnic at Como Park, then went to the great Cooper theater to see the movie. It was awesome, the theater had some kind of 'wrap around" picture. Huge screen! Have it now on DVD. As a kid, and still do, love any movies with Roy Rogers and Trigger........yup, he was my childhood hero

Reply to What was Your First Favorite Movie as a Child? in Entertainment JoeUser Forums

Oh the first movie I remember loving and wanting to see again and again would have to have been "Cinderella"... and then there was "Snow White" and "Lady and the Tramp" My adult son has almost all of Disney's Classic Master Pieces and I have quite a few myself. Wish SOMEONE would make movies like these again, also make a few more movies like the Ester Williams classics.....

Thanks for writing about your thoughts and feelings Mason.

Reply to It's my age. in Health & Medicine JoeUser Forums

I musta gone through what you're going through at the same age, cause by 43 was allllllllll done with the whole process...... I thought I was having panic attacks when I'd start sweating, getting cold, the whole nine yards.......now of course i know better. It runs in our family, the early age for the change...... Hang in there, it sounds like you're handling it just right!!
