Pipit

My sister-in-law sent me these... glad I had gone to the bathroom before I checked my email or I may have wet myself...

-----------

One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his Sweatshirt. Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me, "What setting do I use on the washing machine?"

"It depends," I replied. "What does it say on your shirt?"

He yelled back, "University of Oklahoma."

And they say blondes are dumb...

A couple is lying in bed. The man says, "I am going to make you the happiest woman in the world." The woman replies, "I'll miss you..."

He said - Shall we try swapping positions tonight? She said - That's a good idea... you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa ****.

Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man?

A: A rumor

-------

A man and his wife, now in their 60's, were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. On their special day a good fairy came to them and said that because they had been so good that each one of them could have one wish. The wife wished for a trip around the world with her husband.

Whoosh! Immediately she had airline/cruise tickets in her hands.

The man wished for a female companion 30 years younger... Whoosh...immediately he turned ninety!!! Gotta love that fairy!

I think my speech was a little more extreme than the reality of the situation. There are so many good memories that for whatever reason are not included in that speech, like the belching contests and the trips out to the beaver dam and game of 'Sam's poisonous fingers' (it was like froozen tag, but Sam was ALWAYS it).

I am happy to say that my brothers and I have a riot of a time when we are together, and we are pretty much each others best friends. In fact, we look back at all that stuff and laugh ourselves silly at it! And I wouldn't say life is peaceful now (at least, physically peaceful. Mentally, there are those moments of peace, with a few occasional moments of terror).

Ahhh... I miss my bros!

I think grade 3, because I really didn't have to do dishes in grade 1, or a computer until grade 2....Anyways, here it is complete with grammer and spelling mistakes!

Enjoy!!

p.s. Christopher Graham was a friend of my older brother....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My speech is about my two brothers. DO you know what it's like to have two brothers, one older and one younger than you ? It is horrible. you get beat up all the time and you get blamed for it. you know what that's like.?

My two brothers are pests but times aren't to bad when I have to do dishes, I get left alone. But then at times things get horrible. It all starts off when we get home from school. My older brother Tom shoots a snowball at me then I get mad and try to hit him with my schoolbag. He then starts fighting with me and Sam, my younger brother, tells my mom and then we both get into trouble. I usually win by back talk.

At night,I can hear Sam playing his radio and I hear Tom at night hitting the wall and making weird noises but my mom makes them stop sometimes. But at school it's differant because Tom will get into trouble if he punches me.

I'm in the middle of a war. Sam jumps on me, Tom kicks and punches me at home when there is no one around to hear me yell. I wish I lived somewhere else or had a home to myself or lived in the barn in the hayloft but my mom and dad won't let me. I have to put up with the fighting all day. When I get time to Myself Tom or Sam ruins it by coming to bug me. Why can't I have a peaceful life like other kids? Why do I have to go through all this stuff? WHY? I get beat up all the time. I wish I could have a room to myself. But i can't live a peaceful funfilled life like Christopher Graham. I have to go through all this each day!!! I can't stand it much longer. I want to break Tommy's arm. But I can't break Tommy's arm. It's not him, it is his mind and Sam's mind too!!! My mind isn't like that. My mind is peacefull and loving like some other kids in the school. And why do I get stuck in the middle of the fight as usually. By why me? Is always me. By why?

I hate getting beat up all the time. I'm glad I have the dishes to do after supper which is time off of getting beat up. I like to have a job that I don't get beat up at. I have to shoval the driveway which Tommy should do but he doesn't do it. I get beat up and have to do all the work all at once. Then comes my next break which I don't get not very much at. And thats what makes me mad!!! I have to stay up all night listening to him snore!! It all so when I am gong to get on the bus. But who cares, he gets in the most trouble most of the time. I prefer the summer time when we get the cows but I have a long time to wait for the cows. But I'm glad to have two brothers too. I can beat them up as long as

Would it be a crime

If I didn't post a rhymn

That was really mine

As I visit this time?

Or should I just

Give up with fuss

and go for bust

Or leave if I must?

Or is this getting annoying

To those who are toying

If the hopes of knowing

Where is this going?

I guess I stop now

Before I say chow

Because I think somehow

I've said enough (for now)....

Hey Pipit, I see you're from northern Ontario to.You should drop into chat sometime.Who knows,we might be next door neighbors.

Sent you a PM. If you want to know, I live in Timmins, spent the last 4 years in North Bay, know alot of people from all around through youth group involvement and camps and such (Northland Bible Camp, Silver Birches).

Sadly, I don't play the bagpipes. If I did, it may be easy to say who I was. Everyone knows the guy who plays the Bagpipes!

Send moose meat.

Umm.... I'd rather keep that for myself (the moose meat). Of course, if I did have moose meat, I have several friends who would quickly invite themselves over... and my moose meat will be no more...

...unless I start playing bagpipes when they show up....

This may be the current last post,

but it will never last as last.

But at least it was last,

even if for the least amount of time.

But this is not the last time,

at least for me,

to try to post last.

At least I hope so...

cheese

No one has answered my question what is wrong with the pipes

No volume control for one.

There is volume control: squeez the neck of the guy who is playing it harder to lower volume, losen grip to raise volume.

Hmm... quotes... well... there are a few of my own here.... but hey, why not? I like them, they are quotes... so... quote me on it!

"It's ankle deep...

...if you land in it head first."

"Stupid people doing stupid things provides good entertainment" ~me~

"You are crookeder than a plate of instestiens" ~Floyd Little~

"You're not a person, you're a boy!" ~Rebekka O'Day~

"Of one hundred men, one will read the Bible. Ninety-nine will read the Christian" ~ D.H. Moody

"A shepherd with no sheep is simply a man standing in an empty field" ~me~

"Lord, I am your messanger. Throw me like a blazing torch into the night" ~Mary Skobstoya~

"If Everyone things that Someone Else will do it, it will end up that No One will do it. And we all know how well of a job No One does. So Everyone smarten up, do what No One would do if they would not, and watch things start to get done"

"Gasoline and Alchole don't mix,

But Gasoline alone doesn't taste to bad" (sign on door at my uncle's garage)

Oh to learn that wonderful instrument! What would be great when we get to heaven and find that God had decided that instead of harps we'd all play the pipes!

Well... if Christ does not come and take us home... this is what may be of me in April 2031:

If I am still kicking, I would be 49. Hopefully I will still be teaching overseas, or teaching people to go teach overseas, or teaching people from overseas who have come here.... or teaching at a Christian school. I hope be married, to have several kids (at least 4), much travel under my belt (and not much fat), and still be as good looking as I am now (I am refering to my eye sight. I look good with my glasses on... but everything is blurry when they are off!)

If I am not still kicking, it will mean that I have lost a leg (I was voted most likely to lose a limb once at youth camp) or broke something inportant. If short one leg, I will still try to kick (or at least hit people with my crutches or cane), and will hopefully be engaged in doing the above.

If by chance I have expired by that time, it will be because I got to close to a large wild animal (like, a bear... I have chased and been chased by them!) or because skiing behind a car with a tow-rope at 125 miles per hour is dangerous and the corner on the road was a bit to sharp for me to make (80mph is hard enough... I think I rolled and bounced 600ft after slipping out). Or maybe it will be because of a freak snowball accident....

hmm.... I go away and am gone for a month, and I come back and find that a place in lastness is left open for me! What wonderful blessing!!

Short cut cuts short.... fingers.

what is scary is that it sounds like something I would consider doing (though I am smart enough to know that it is too much of a hassle to pick up a lawn mower...)

anyways, my fav. quote that I made "stupid people doing stupid things provides good entertainment" applies here.

Listening to Novi Ierusalim (New Jerusalem). They are a band from Belorussia that both has some awesome songs (in Russian), and a totally awesome outreach ministry.

It was great! There were a few little things that didn't make it into the movie that I had hoped to be there, but beyond that, Waldan productions did a great job with the film!

TOTALLY WORTH WATCHING!

Great review Traveller!!

I'll hold down the fort with you Pipit, we can play a nice game of cards and have some tea while we wait

Tea sounds great. I enjoy playing crib... got the board and cards and everything.

As for holding down the fort, don't worry about it.

For everyone who welcomed me back... boo to you!

.....I mean... thank you

No need to worry about the burdens of being last. Like everything else, I'll pick up the pieces and hold the fort and make certain everything is in order so that everyone else can go home early.

No need to thank me or make any other comments. You don't even have to welcome me back for this breif visit I am making or offer me a hand. Just be silent and leave me be here as last. I don't mind it at all.

We'll all be waiting......

For me to post last?

______I_hate_packing______

Oih Everyone!

I am writing this to say that I am leaving soon for an indefinite amount of time... it may be a few days, it may be a few months. I am returning to Timmins (my home town). Much of the reason for my return to Timmins is in regards to my mom's recent loss of her driver's license due to problems with her eyes. As home in Timmins is on a farm a far distance from town, I get to be a taxi driver for my mom and grandma. As well, as it seems God is bringing us all in different directions in the near future, I think it may also be time to get things in order back home.

I will not have much internet access when home. Maybe at my dad's place in town (my parents are divorced), and as such, I shall not be visiting WB as often as I do. Given the uncertainity of how long things will take to be resolved, sorted out or whatever, it may be a fair while before I start posting again!

Anyways, a few wee things to pray for:

-my mom's eyes, that her sight will be restored to its fullness, and that she will be able to get her driver's lisence back.

-that I can find a job back home (and one that is compatible with my mom's work schedule).

-that someone will give me a winning lottery ticket (though I can certainly live without it).

Wel, bye bye to you all for the time being!

If we do not meet again down here, certainly we will all meet up there!!! (at least, I hope you are all there!!)

Pipit

I grew up on games like Think Quick, Police Quest, and a few others of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Also played Frogger and Jump Jet a fair bit.

Though not as classic as Donkey Kong or any of those listed, the Aces Series (Aces of the Pacific, Aces Over Europe) and X-Wing from 1993 are games I still enjoy and still find a challenge to play.

I was looking for what types of food people here order when they get take-out but I like all of the other answers that were given, too!

I knew what you were asking!! So, among other things, I said I liked the club sandwhiches at Ivan's Restruant here in North Bay!!

This may be my last lastness post in a while...

...not that I am really leaving WB, just life is taking me places soon where internet access will be scarce and time online will be severly limited.

So.... my last port at lastness until next time I post....

Life is great when...

...i have a cup of tea.

...when I wake up in the morning and get on the net and my Ukrainian friends are online (especially Anastasiya ).

...when a bunch of us are sitting around at 'Ivan's' in North Bay. Great place to eat in, to take out, to call and order. Best club sandwhich I ever had and some of the best fries I have ever had!!
