Goodbye folks

[Scythian]

I posted this under general/chat category "wierd stuff" where it belongs ...

I've been on here since 1998, in these past 12 years I've changed alot. I became deathly ill only to make myself better through natural means. I even had 3 children since 1998 as well.

When I first joined I had just had my eyes opened to Christianity and to the real Christ, having previously voted for Clinton in 92 I realized I was very wrong in my thoughts and started voting Republican. But now, 12 years later I have learned even more, enough to know to stop investing time in this arena.

We have our pinewood derby car race this weekend for scouting, our cars are fast, should be a good race. To be honest, I really don't care about politics anymore. Jesus didn't waste his time on it and niether will I. Not saying I wont vote, I will.

Anyway, the FR has been great fun, and daily I actually laughed out loud reading the quips from posters, very witty stuff. I just wanted to say thank you to the FR for 12 years.

This part of my life is being closed down so that I can spend this time on other things.

- Scythian out

PS: That means you can rip me to shreds now in proper FR style, LOL, you guys are awesome and Good Luck ...

Goodbye, Gloria!

Sweet, Sweet, Sweetie. You'll be back. Something will infuriate you and you'll need to check in. Wasting a day on a flame war with idiots can be hugely annoying, but for some reason it changes the chemicals in your brain and after a time your brain will need to see what your dysfunctional family thinks about something.

Say "hello" when you get back.

[JDoutrider]

Guarantee you’ll be back... above all else, have FUN in your pursuits until then!

[Shelayne]

I completely understand from where you are coming.

Enjoy your family—your precious children— and enjoy being with God. Continue to be salt and light to this darkness, as we are called to do.

Blessings to you. You will be missed at FR.

[T Minus Four]

I understand. Be blessed!

[Clinging Bitterly]

That means you can rip me to shreds now in proper FR style...

Aww, we (most of us anyway) wouldn't do that unless we thought that's what you want.

We gotta pick our battles and you had yours it seems, at least for now. Godspeed to ya.

I did kinda the same thing, without the whole vanity posting (LOL) after the birth of our second son. Family first. I had my hands, and every spare minute of my life, wrapped up in being a wife and mother. Those two facets of my life are still first and foremost, but I have more free time now--and FR is still here for me.

I'll keep an eye out for you. Enjoy your many blessings.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Good post.

Jesus said to render unto Caesar those things that are Caesar’s. Well, this country is supposed to by run by the people and for the people. Therefore we, as Christians, owe it to our country to be somewhat involved in its maintenance and future. Yes, I know our true citizenship is in heaven, but while we are here we owe it to our fellow man to serve. Love your neighbor by loving your country.

He may have escaped FR but he'll *never* outrun the balloons!

As my [possibly certifiable] friend always says;

“If God closes the door, he’ll throw you out the window.”

In some mysterious universe, that makes sense.

It’s the cookies...they *always* come back for the cookies.

Slow news day.

Who is Number One?

[Salamander]

It might if somebody nailed his hands to his head.

[yeah, that one’s gonna get pulled]

[Salamander]

I've been voting for this guy since Nixon.

[Salamander]

Big fan of worms, are ya?

[Palladin]

Scythian, I know you—you will be back.

But kudos on spending more time with your kids. This time with them, in their early years, will never come again. So make the most of it!

Good luck!!
