Well, I got an idea for bl spacers. We had a pizza from Pappa Johns Sunday that was real bad....hard as a rock, the veggies were like hocky pucks!!!!! We have had Pappa Johns before and I was not impressed with this crap pizza we got. We may order pizza about 6-7 times a year. This was the...

Doorgunner...so sorry for the passing of Jason. A true fighter. Bless all of your family. I put this song together and put it in a poem format for all of you. How many times have all of us sat on a beach, a park, a front or back porch with a special someone and saw the earth as it truly is...

Great Googly Moogly!! You won’t believe what I saw about 40 min. ago!!! I was coming back from the VA Hospital and I was driving on the crosstown in a bit of traffic when I saw in my rear view mirror a small car that seemed to be towing a white trailer. It was moving up very fast. I was doing...

Well, he is doing better.... just can't raise up or turn his head yet. He can't talk still with the mouth banged up so badly. He can blink his eyes, can't move his arms or legs so well, but moving a bit more than last week. He shows no sign yet of any brain damage. The young lady was cited for...
