  1. Anyone planning a trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway? Khaotic Rebel and I are heading down Thursday to Saturday. I know there have been other posts on this but has anyone been down there recently and has any good suggestions? We want to stay over night and need somewhere to pull the bikes into the room. We'll post some pics when we get back!

  2. Scrappy, you're a teacher yet you can't read. Again, I really love how threads like this always make all smokers out to be poor white trash. So yeah it hits a nerve when people like you get on your soapbox and start preaching

    You must be interested in reading it... You made a choice to read and comment. So wait aren't you preaching too? I'm guessing you'll continue to post because you are just like "the people like me." (Thanks for saying I can't read. You're really a great person! Please..oh please can you attack me again...It really shows me how educated you are.)

  3. Positive things? How about its not your body or your money so don't fucking worry about why I smoke. Positive enough for ya?

    Hey do what you want.. it is your body. I said I "personally" can't see why anyone would smoke. I "personally" don't see any posivie things. It wasn't a question for you or anyone else.. It was a comment. Oh and I am not worried about why you smoke. Are you worried... it seems to have hit a nerve for you.

  4. If you can afford to smoke, have at it. Doesn't bother me a bit. If you buy your smokes, but I buy your kid's lunch.... I have a problem.

    I agree!

    I do wonder why people smoke though... It makes you smell..even if you don't think it does. The smell stays with you too! It is super expensive. It could give you cancer. It turns your teeth yellow. Hmmm... what are the positive things?

  5. I am an elementary teacher and I spend thousands of my own money each year because of the parents that "can't" supply things for their own children. I end up buying coats... shoes... supplies... and other things needed for these children. (The kids come in with worn out shoes and clothes too small.) When I ask for any extra supplies or anything for special events..these parents never send anything in. (They are usually all about sending in cookies for a party!) The funny thing is... these are the children that come in with their clothes smelling like smoke! I don't see how anyone could afford to smoke! These are also the kids with all the video games and toys they want (often games inappropriate!). These are usually the first parents to complain when their child gets "in trouble" at school.. or that their kid should't have homework.. or their kid shouldn't have consequences for not getting their reading log signed or not doing their homework.

    When you have a child your goal should be to better your child's life. I am convinced our world is heading the way the movie "Idiocracy" shows society... Haven't seen it then download it! If you don't find it funny and don't agree.... you are one of them!

    Come on people.. Rose Art crayons and markers SUCK! They don't color well and the markers run out after a few weeks. If you don't buy all wood pencils.. the lead breaks quicker and they don't sharpen right. I am all about buying cheap things because I have to spend my own money for the parents who don't care.. but certain things shouldn't be cheap.. crayons.. markers.. pencils. (Tissues don't matter.)

    I do think there are people out there who truly are going through tough times.. These are the people who don't ask for handouts. They understand that their child is number one.... They support their education.

    Come on people, your child is number one...You made a choice to have a child and you need to support their education. If this support means your child needs Crayola crayons..so be it! Quit complaining..think about what you are teaching your child! If you don't like it... homeschool. Is 20 cents of savings worth it?

  6. Sorry Yota....if you need anything.. please let us know! I'm sure Khaotic Rebel wouldn't mind if I gave you her PS3 or XBOX :) Oh and there is a great Abba singing game for the PS3 :) Seriously though.... let us know.. You should try to post some pics of the items if you have them... esp the snowboard.. we can all surf craigslist and all. :(

  7. Yep...he just hurt his hand... prob twisted some things..It was rather swollen but then I couldn't tell b/c he has some big hands to begin with LOL. I woulda killed someone for calling the squad for that! (What were you thinking!) The cops came and he got a ticket for wreckless driving! What a bunch of crap! If I go down.... I'll kill someone for calling the squad if I'm not dying! He messed up the right front of his bike but coulda rode it home if his hand wasn't hurting so bad. So ya.. 2 hours later we got him home so he could go to work! LOL ... Poor Moose! Never lock up the back brake!

  8. My roommate does acupressure, having gone to one of those Holistic Massage type schools. I broke both wrists on a whoolie gone bad, and it flares up from time to time. Her beliefs are a bit wierd for me, but it actually felt better after 20 minutes. So approach with an open mind.

    Acupressure did wonders for my shoulder! I can't believe that pushing on something for a long time works.... but it does!
