I can't begin to tell you how much it has meant to me, at least.

You just have to freepmail regulars who usually know all the gorey details. I am not sure if it's banned for life or for a set time period; same as suspended - is that indefinite too? I'm not going to experiment to find out however.

JESUS AND THE MUD PUDDLE

A great story..........

Howard County Sheriff Jerry Marr got a disturbing call one Saturday
afternoon a few months ago. His 6-year-old grandson Mikey had been hit
by a car while fishing in Greentown with his dad. The father and son were
near a bridge by the Kokomo Reservoir when a woman lost control of her
car, slid off the bridge and hit Mikey at a rate of about 50 mph.

Sheriff Marr had seen the results of accidents like this and feared the worst. When he got to Saint Joseph Hospital, he rushed through the emergency room to find Mikey conscious and in fairly good spirits.

"Mikey, what happened?" Sheriff Marr asked. Mikey replied, "Well, Papaw,
I was fishin' with Dad, and some lady runned me over, I flew into a mud
puddle, and broke my fishin' pole and I didn't get to catch no fish!"

As it turned out, the impact propelled Mikey about 500 feet, over a few trees and an embankment and in the middle of a mud puddle.

His only injuries were to his right femur bone which had broken in two places.

Mikey had surgery to place pins in his leg. Otherwise the boy is fine.

Since all the boy could talk about was that his fishing
pole was broken, the Sheriff went out to Wal-mart and bought
him a new one while he was in surgery so he could have it when he came out.

The next day the Sheriff sat with Mikey to keep him
company in the hospital. Mikey was enjoying his new fishing
pole and talked about when he could go fishing again as he cast into the
trash can.

When they were alone, Mikey, just as matter-of-factly, said,
"Papaw, did you know Jesus is real?"

Well," the Sheriff replied, a little startled. "Yes, Jesus is
real to all who believe in him and love him in their hearts."

"No," said Mikey. "I mean Jesus is REALLY real."

"What do you mean?" asked the Sheriff.

"I know he's real 'cause I saw him." said Mikey, still
casting into the trash can.

"You did?" said the Sheriff.

"Yep," said Mikey. "When that lady runned me over and
broke my fishing pole, Jesus caught me in his arms and laid me
down in the mud puddle."

GIVES YOU GLORY BUMPS DOESN'T IT!

GOD WILL DO THE REST

I asked the Lord to bless you

As I prayed for you today

To guide you and protect you

As you go along your way

His love is always with you

His promises are true

And when we give Him all our cares

You know He will see us through

So when the road you're traveling on

Seems difficult at best

Just remember I'm here praying

And GOD WILL DO THE REST.

A man sat down at the local bar. He said, "Drinks all around. You, too, bartender." So, everyone had a drink. Awhile later, the man orders again. "Drinks all around. You, too, bartender."

After the third round, the bartender ask the man to pay the tab.

The man, upon feeling for his wallet, realizes he has left it at home, and has no money.

The bartender, having a bad day already, beats the man up severely and throws him out. He is beated so badly, he has to spend two weeks in the hospital.

The day he gets out he goes back to the same bar, sits in the same spot and says, "Drinks all around.

But not you, bartender, you get mean when you drink!"

No, I didn't say anything but I pinged the admin moderator to your thread in case the AM felt like enlightening you. The FYI was for the AM.

I can say that I've never been banned but possibly some of my posts have been deleted which I never followed up on. Life's too short.
