My favorites are Brooke and David Cook, but David A. is good, too.

My hubby's dad once had the brilliant idea of raising their own turkey for Thanksgiving. You know, a project! I think Brian was 11 or 12.
He said slaughter day was one of the most traumatic events of his childhood. The killing wasn't exactly a smooth process. |

It comes and goes with me for Carly. If she is singing at a range that normal humans can hear, she's great; but she tends to get a little screeeeeechy at times. I can't stand that screamy-singing.
Aw, I have a hard time finding any Jason Castro supporters. The hair--man, you know there's gotta be mildew growing in those ropes! Sheweee! Spiders and all manner of detritus. |

Not chicken slaughter country!
I know some " old country " folk who will dig a pit and roast a pig in their back yard . Hey Kayte your husband got a web link for his paintings ? |

I'm not sure if I should be more impressed by Mike the Chicken himself, or with Moray for this find. |

Is this the same chicken who had it's head cut off but it survived for 2 years or 2 months or something ridiculously long, and the family used to feed it by putting food down it's neck? |

Yeah, but my friendship break up had to do with money stolen from me. It was pretty ugly. And I don't miss that friend at all, to be honest. |

Well, kind of a long story that I don't really want to go into here, but basically, I had a long-time friend (since 1st grade) and we have gone down different paths in life. She has made a lot of decisions that I consider foolish. She has a wicked temper that she unleashes at the drop of a hat. The last time she lashed out at me, I had it. Enough. I stopped communicating with her. She never apologized. But she keeps trying to contact me. I just received a letter yesterday. She has breast cancer and had a mastectomy (she's only 36). I feel sorry for her and all, cancer is terrible and I'm sure she's terrified. But I can't go back to that friendship. I have forgiven her in my heart, but I do not want to continue that relationship. She, however, wants direct answers why I have not been contacting her for 3 years. I hate to tell her things that will hurt her, but what else can I do? This has been going on since we were kids. I feel ridiculous having a problem like this as an adult. Let the Boardie Psychotherapy begin. |
