The way I look at it in my typical gallows humor style is this: I've found a diet that kicks Jenny Craig's ass! I haven't been this slim ever. The hardest part about it was the effect it had on my kids. My daughter asked if I died, would I go to Heaven and would she see me again. I did something I rarely do...I broke down and cried a river. I was seriously depressed because I felt like that if I died, I'd be abandoning my children. Sure, we've got plenty of money, but to not see my children play high school sports, grow up, go off to college, get married, have grandchildren was just too much. I was pretty pissed with God about that very point. I did get right with the Lord, however. I pray every day and the good thing is that I really have a grasp on the concept "tomorrow is promised to no one" and to live each day to its fullest. And my relationship with my wife, which was somewhat strained with the stress from her job, couldn't be better. She was happiest when I finally got to resume my husbandly duties a few months ago.
What a story, bamma. Glad you made it through all of that. I'm guessing it really puts things in perspective... Anyway, where is BrianKagy? The most bizarre poster on this board. And I say that with the greatest of respect.
Kagy's been MIA for a long time. MrPaige made a brief cameo -- but looks like he got busy with his life again. Isabel's been scarce. The old clique -- Behad, Smeg, etc -- rarely post. And I haven't seen RM95 in the D&D for quite a while
i know, weird. especially with the debate going on over there about whether or not dave matthews is a bandwagon fan for wearing a UT t-shirt. i'd have thought he'd have some kind of opinion on that.
You not being able to get into one of your favorite forums is what makes your post count even more impressive.
why did u guys ban Rocketman95 for? i know he dissed Maxwell, but doesnt need to be banned for it. maybe slapped around or forced to eat at Drexler's, but not banned.
We must move forward, not backward, upward, not forward, and twirling!, twirling!! twirling!!! toward freedom. Great that you're ok, bama. I miss b-bob too.
funny I mentioned bslam in my thread yesterday, and I asked if he was remembered. I'm glad you're alright also. sjc replied in another thread I started last week in it was the first time i noticed he hadn't been around. verse came back at the end of the season but he has left again. heypartner just posts when he needs info.
No kidding. Onward through the fog! Let's see... what's RM95 missing? Just a few threads, like "World War III," "Will we go to war with Iran?" (it's got a poll!), "Is Civil War in Iraq bad?" "I support high oil prices!" (I'm not kidding, and by one of our best posters) "Krugman: Who's Crazy Now?" (that one is self explanatory, from any political angle!) "Should the government legislate morality?" "Colbert," and just good old, "Oil." Just the usual collection of stuff. (glad you are back, bama! )
I was thinking of starting a Lance Armstrong thread to flush out SJC. But I see from this thread he's still around. What ever happened to ol' ZRB? I would have thought he'd be posting like crazy given this last season's results.
Please. Oh, and I am getting really tired of this poster named "Advertisement", he's always the second one to post and his links suck.
