OK, GUYS, LET'S S ROLL!!
I thought Maybe a good way to begin tonight's discussions would be for us to share about some of the best pranks and jokes that we either played on someone,(or someone played on us) when we were younger(or nowadays, for that matter)
Also, we could share about some of the crazy things we used to do, when we were younger(or perhaps still do) that were seen as fun at the time, but look foolhardy to us today.
I'll start things off, and share about one thing I did about 20 years or so ago, when I was 18-19. I would go on little "scenic routes" as I used to call them. (keep in mind that in 1986-87 gas was WAY less than $1.00 a gallon). Now, I did not just drive around aimlessly, but I had a friend named Paul with me. And Paul was a LOT more daring than I!! while I drove, Paul tossed bottles, cans, eggs and fireworks out of the car, mainly at road signs, but also at a few mailboxes. I egged him on, and thought it was a LOT of fun!! Paul conned me into believing that I was not doing anything wrong, since I was "just driving". (I just have to chalk that up to youthful stupidity...) In reality, I would had been the ONLY one to get into trouble had we been caught, because PAUL WAS ON HOUSE ARREST at the time, for a B&E that he and some others had been involved in , AND he was only 17!! SO, had we gotten caught,(and in early '87 we ALMOST did!!) I would had gotten the book thrown at me, for vandalism, littering, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and who knows what else!!
I'll reserve the stories about me messing with gunpowder, acid, gasoline,lighter fluid and fireworks for another time!!! (He....He... He..)
SO... Does anyone else care to share anything(that the statue of limitations has expired on !!) LOL!!

Sounds like it was lots of fun.
My husband's Step-Mom was from Midland, Canada (about 100 miles north of Ontario). We have visited a few times, very pretty area.

Heh heh, my family's the nuttiest of all. They have tiffs and moments like that practically every day. We're used to it!

"What just happened?"
Well, I at one time was a Poli Sci major myself--and mainly was making a joke, in post 331. Not that I laugh about the reality of RINO and CINOs when we need STATESMEN, of course.
Oh, well. Sweet dreams to even those who banish chivalrous Sir Blur from their electronic courtyards.

I hope it goes well too!!! I'm a little nervous.
We have a rabble rouser in our family. Everyone gets along just fine, except for this ONE person, and he has been getting progressively worse over the years. I honestly think he needs some real therapy. This Sunday was apparently pretty bad, and this person did some things that were almost unforgivable, and I'm not sure what's going to happen.
To: Blurblogger
Well, I got your joke. You are not banished as far as I'm concerned.

I went back and re-read it, but I didn't see how you were being insulting. Looks like you were just summing things up in one fell swoop, not really making a commentary on what was already stated.
To: Maximus_Ridiculousness
Is this person one of the siblings or "by marriage"?

I fail to see any humor in trashing Republicans.

I think he was criticizing RINOs and Republicans in office who aren't tough enough on things like illegal immigration. This IS a big problem in the Republican party right now.

No. He's my older brother. (unfortunately)
He's really making things ugly for everyone right now. There is a slight chance I may not see him after all. Tomorrow is my nephew's birthday and he is supposed to show up with his kids. We don't know if he's going to visit all day, or just drop the kids off.
My sister is terrified of him right now.
It's a long sad story. :(
To: pcottraux
People use the term RINO to describe any Republican who does something they don't like. There are very few Republicans I haven't seen described as a RINO at some point or other.

That's because most of us like to refer to ourselves as Conservatives first, and Republicans second. The Republican party itself has too often tried to pander to voters and political correctness instead of standing up for what's right.
RINO is certainly a legit term. How else to describe Insane McCain?

Hello. Since you post again to me, I shall reply.
I find little value in terms like 'Republicans.' Gramscian Marxism infiltrators and just plain cowards use that term to rise to a position of power--or at least employment.
I rely on adherence to true fiscal and social (MORAL ABSOLUTE) conservatism, not labels.
I am a true Conservative and am very pro-Republicans being Conservative.
Meanwhile, my comment was intended to be a bit tongue-in-cheek, even given the sad state of modern Statesmanship.
I still believe we're on the same side.
Cheers.

Has he always been a trouble maker or do you think he has a valid issue? I have only one brother & despite the fact we are 1000 miles apart we are very close. Talk on phone often, email often & have the best times when together. I feel blessed to have him

Ew. How did I post twice? Am I seeing double? I think the room is spinning!
