A girl and guy were speeding over 100mph on a motorcycle

Girl: Slow down, I'm scared!

Guy: No, this is fun.

Girl: No, it's not. Please, I'm scared.

Guy: Then tell me you love me.

Girl: I love you, now slow... more »

    Well I saw how many friends you have and I think that's just a matter of statistics. You may have a lot of friend with just about anybody here, your updates must be a long list indeed.

    The weather here is hot. I live just east of San Francisco behind some hills that block the Pacific breeze and makes it a very Mediterranean climate. It reached up to 100 yesterday and will probably do so again. And it will stay like this through Sept. It will be October before we see any temp around the 80 degree mark. So 100F will be about 28C, is that right?

    Where is Wi, UK? Not that familiar with abbreviated place names over there.

    Good to meet you.

    The world is not as just, not as loving, not as whole as we know it can and should be. But the coming of CHRIST and his presence among us—as one of us—give us reason to live in hope: that light will shatter the darkness, that we can be liberated from our fears and prejudices, that we are never alone or abandoned. God sent JESUS not just to save us, God came down so He could forever be with us *You are a friend of God ~ Merry Christmas*

    Oops, I see you plan to read it. You have some other books on your shelf that interest me, such as Fear by Jeff Abbott. There are other titles with similar covers. Do you have to read them in order?

    Hi Tracey,
    I see you've read My Mom is TRying to Ruin My Life - I thought it was so cute! Kate Feiffer has other titles, too, which I'll eventually read. (I requested the library buy it, which takes time, but it's a good system for a small market like NZ when you don't want to buy the book.)
    Do you read many picture books? I love pretty much all books except science fiction.
    Fiona :)

    Hi! I see you've read and liked Karin Slaughters, Beyond Reach. I'm getting a lot of mixed reviews on it. Have you read any others in the series? What did you like about them? I own this book, but didn't know it was a series. Then I hear I really should read the one before, etc. Is it worth it to me to get the others in the series? I loved Chelsea Cain's series, Heartsick etc.

    here is a story from my book -- I noticed that it was on your "plan to read list"
    from Roger C. Elliott's What "Back Then" Was Like and stories passed on by ancestors: (by permission of the author)
    Granddad was not to be disturbed because he was out there pulling the tooth. Well, Dad understood and decided to leave him alone. So, after about an hour, Dad called again to see if Granddad was feeling any better. Again, Mammaw answered the phone. This time she commented that he's still outside. Well, Dad told Mom we were going "over home." She and I got into the old pick up and the three of us started out. When we got there he seemed to be doing better. He was sitting on the front porch. This was where he often was when we arrived so we expected that he was better. As we walked down the steps from the street, he sat still. He was very pale and he was biting on a white cloth. He couldn't talk. He was still in pain. So, Mom asked him if he maybe should go on to the dentist, he shook his head and appeared angered. At that point everone seemed to chime in and insist that Granddad get to the doctor. What we didn't know at the time was that this "tough ole bird" had taken care of the situation himself by pulling not one but all of his teeth with a pair of pliers! Not believing in going to a medical doctor and never having been to a dentist (as far as I knew), he had developed an incredible pain tolerance.
    With this kind of pain tolerance, I still cannot understand how this old mountain man who came from Eastern Kentucky, was ever squirmish about anything that life had to offer. However, there was one thing he just couldn't shake. See, according to Dad, Granddad was once an accomplished five-string banjo player, but I had never heard him play. I hadn't even seen a musical instrument "over home." Over the years I had heard numerous times that he was once a very good musician. But there was somehow an unwritten rule about never mentioning the banjo around "Poppie." With this on my mind one day, and because I felt I could ask Granddad anything, I figured on asking him about the days when he played. I just wanted to hear him play, after all I really didn't know what a banjo sounded like first hand. So, while Granddad was sitting in his chair near the front door I proceded to inquire about it.
    "Granddad, can you still play the banjo?"
    "What? How do you know?"
    "I just heard you were good."
    "Yeh, I use to."
    "Do you ever play anymore?"
    "New, I don't. Haven't played since I was back in Sandy Hook."
    "Could you play if you really wanted too-if you got your fingers back in shape?"
    "Don't know, but will never know. I won't play that thing anymore. Something happened. I can't play again."
    I knew by the tone of his voice that he didn't want to be questioned about it any more. So, I waited until I could ask Dad about why Granddad didn't play music anymore. Although he looked at me closely before he rendered an answer, he finally told me that Granddad told him that back in Kentucky, Granddad was sitting playing his banjo when something happened. He said that is why he wouldn't play any longer.
    "Yeh, that's what Granddad said. But, what happened?" I asked.
    "Well he said he was just sittin' there playin' like he always did...In his chair, but he was playin' his banjo a fast one. And right in the middle of the playin' he heard something right above his head. It was somethin' in the attic. It sounded like it was dancin' along with the music. Well, he said it scared him so much that he put it down and never picked it up again."
    "What was it?" I asked again.
    "Don't know. All I know is that he never played again and told me after that happen'd he felt it was wrong to play-like it was sacreligous. --He had it in his mind that the devil or somthin' was in the attic when he was playin' and figured that if that was happenin', it must be wrong to play."
    This was, remember, the same man who was tough enough to kill snakes with his bare hands and yank out every tooth in his mouth with a pair of pliers! But sure enough, something happened that day in Kentucky that scared him to the point he'd never pick up his banjo again.
