LOL, Glouc, beware the strangers! I think DH has had something like that before too. Is there ANYTHING they don't fry and serve on a silver platter?? I bet you coud fry dog turds and SOME yokel somewhere would eat them. :mad2:

I dunno... I'm kinda with Plain on this one where I think she wanted to party and accidentally overdosed her on chloroform. I think that's why the duct tape and the child in the trunk. Maybe that's where she was placed... I hope we'll find out, but this woman is diabolical. I doubt if you asked her her name you'd get the same answer twice, she's such a liar.

Ah, I hadn't heard that. Interesting. Lulu: I don't know if my mom would turn me in (probably), but if I was the mom, I would. I know a lot of people who would rally for their family member no matter what, but wrong is wrong.

BWAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! *ahem* Yes. :mad2:

Maybe you need a fried twinkie. :wink: Last week was my turn to be PMSing all over the place. Glad to pass the baton. :mad2:

Awwwright!! :mad2:

One would think, but not in today's bizarro world. Ever see the list of strange lawsuits where idiots WON? I remember a guy who broke into somebody's house via their garage and got stuck (don't know how). Well, what he didn't know was that the people left on vacation and he was "forced" to eat dry dog food and drink warm Pepsi or some such bull. He freakin' SUED them and WON. It's sheer insanity these days.

I'm..... thinkin' we don't wanna know. :mad2:

The breeder had better get them student loans and quick... :mad2:

I think Dr. Phil is going to have something about her tomorrow.

I've got another one: Jesus, He Knows Me by Phil Collins. Should I dedicate it? You decide. :mad2: You see the face on the tv screen Coming at you every sunday See that face on the billboard That man is me On the cover of the magazine There's no question why Im smiling You buy a piece of paradise You buy a piece of me Ill get you everything you wanted Ill get you everything you need Don't need to believe in hereafter Just believe in me Cos jesus he knows me And he knows Im right Ive been talking to jesus all my life Oh yes he knows me And he knows Im right And he's been telling me Everything is alright I believe in the family With my ever loving wife beside me But she don't know about my girlfriend Or the man I met last night Do you believe in god Cos that's what Im selling And if you wanna get to heaven Ill see you right You wont even have to leave your house Or get outta your chair You don't even have to touch that dial Cos Im everywhere And jesus he knows me And he knows Im right Ive been talking to jesus all my life Oh yes he knows me And he knows Im right Well he's been telling me Everythings gonna be alright Wont find me practising what Im preaching Wont find me making no sacrifice But I can get you a pocketful of miracles If you promise to be good, try to be nice God will take good care of you Just do as I say, don't do as I do Im counting my blessings, Ive found true happiness Cos Im getting richer, day by day You can find me in the phone book, Just call my toll free number You can do it anyway you want Just do it right away Therell be no doubt in your mind Youll believe everything Im saying If you wanna get closer to him Get on your knees and start paying Cos jesus he knows me And he knows Im right Ive been talking to jesus all my life Oh yes he knows me And he knows Im right Well he's been telling me Everythings gonna be alright, alright Jesus he knows me Jesus he knows me, you know...

You and I don't count. We're mere mortals. :mad2:

I hear ya on that one. :mad2:

I believe I'll have another drink. Water, of course. :mad2:

What I find sad is at first the grandmother calls the cops and says her daughter's car smelled like there had been a dead body in the trunk, and now they are rallying the troops. Poor child...

I think you do! Effing add-ons! :mad2:

I know, I know... :wink:

I am aware of that forgiveness. It's just that the way you present it, it's more of a neener-neener against those who are non-believers. How lucky you are that no matter what a witch you are to others, you are forgiven. :mad2:

Carrie: What makes you think her brother was involved? Have you read something? I will admit that the information I get is sketchy at best as I haven't really been following the story.

EXACTLY! You were probably freaking out 20 minutes after he was expected. She didn't freak out the first day... or the second... or the fifth... or the 10th... or the 15th... or the 20th... or the 30th. Hell, she didn't even freak out, it simply wasn't reported until 30 days AFTER the child was missing. WTF??

Never even seen a fried pickle much less tried one. How did that happen, living in Houston for 27 years where if it sits still long enough, somebody's gonna fry it? Since then I have heard of fried Oreos, fried twinkies, and have actually tried fried ice cream. Now THERE'S a feat! Frying ice cream.

omg, love it!!!!!!!

I posted this on my blog, but I thought it might be important to share here because I am sure I am not the only one who is experiencing this: I know I've been raking on DH a bit here, and usually he's a decent guy, but I don't know exactly what's happening here lately. It's either time for a sit-down or to really get this before a counselor to make it a bit more neutral because, frankly, I don't believe he'll see what he's doing. Since the "coming to Jesus" talk we had (okay, I had with him) a couple weeks ago, on more than one occasion he has made some bizarre comment when I've complimented him after making dinner. I'll say, "Oh, the chicken was good," and he'll reply, "Nah, it's okay. It's just food." The first time I asked what he was talking about and he said he needed to look at food as just sustenance and nothing else. Um, that's NOT what I said. What I said was that he lives to eat and makes everything about the food. So that's been going on a few times since that day. Tonight I said that he needs to stop it, to which he replied that he was only being supportive. I said no, what I feel like he's being is mocking, like he really doesn't get this whole thing I'm going through. I said that it's not bad to enjoy what we eat, it's just that he was so consumed with the act of eating that it was wharped. I said that I wished he was as into me as he is into food, and he thought I was being silly. Uh-huh... *eye roll* Another thing that just started on Friday is that I'm getting a blow-by-blow synopsis of the weight HE has lost by virtually doing nothing. I'm exercising four days a week and eating good meals, every meal, and he's lost over 20 freakin pounds by just not eating all the junk after dinner -- in front of me. And again, he attributes it to "supporting me" -- almost like, "Look how I'm suffering for you because I'm losing weight too." Okay, he's lost almost as much as I have, and now I feel like he's crowing about it (his weight has NEVER been discussed before). The problem with DH is, even if I try to discuss it with him, he is totally lacking in personality or person skills (read: he's very immature). He is not always good with other people, and he seems to lack the ability to understand anything or anyone beyond the end of his nose. Compassion is virtually nil. As Jennifer Aniston would say, there's a sensitivity chip missing sometimes. So when you explain something to him that he's doing, he only knows how to deny. Comprehension doesn't seem to be his strong suit -- especially when it comes from me, unfortunately. I always knew he was going to be the hardest part of this journey, but I guess I never realized just how hard. In the past when I was just dieting, he eventually got his way and we'd start back to eating out again, leading to my weight gain. I'm not blaming him, per se, but still -- if I was doing this only own, I'd have done lost it by now, I feel. But now it's as if he's pulling out all the stops. I dunno, maybe I'm just being sensitive or reading more into it than I should, but I'm not even three months into my journey and we've already had waaaay too many conversations over this. I think that's why I spend so much time on LBT and here -- because these are the places I get support, these are the people that understand what I'm going through. I find it sad that I can get that from people I've never met, yet a man I've known 17 years is either so self-absorbed or so clueless that he doesn't get it.

Depends on who you ask. To her, probably nothing. :blushing:
