[LadyX]

"There may not be a primary.. I knocked another one out of the race.. Lookie here..

What started off as a challenge now may be in a shoe-in for Rus Thompson."

Never Underestimate
FREEPER PRAYER POWER,
Rus !!

[The Mayor]

I never will..

Thank you!

[FreeTheHostages]

"What are the words that were the best you ever heard?"

"God so loved the World that He gave his only Son . . . "

[DollyCali]

Amen!

[MEG33]

ROFL..I loved that list!

Lawnmowers vs goats vs machete vs weed eaters vs Au natural...

I have 2 gas powered (good ones) lawn mowers in my garage. I cannot start them & when someone else starts them, they die when the "talented" party departs. My riding mower same story but I have not used it much for a long time as my yard is very chopped up with flower beds & intricate landscaping. Just too much of a pain to maneuver it around.

so I am using a small electric mower with LONG cord(s).. an acre is mowed +/-. Hot one out there to mow. just did an hour. Will finish up part of back near house & most of front today. We may be getting rain tomorrow possibly & in afternoon tomorrow I will be at lake Erie (heading your way, east of mentor area) before the PM Heritage Republican Club meeting in Mentor

Maybe you could hire a few kids from church to pull you thru the short haul. If you hire a professional bush hog you might as well put that towards new mower.

Thanks for bringing me over to this thread... but I really must get out to work on the yard very soon now.

I live about 15 miles from church friends. That's not much of an option, and most of the folks within a half mile have no kids and I don't know any - bummer.

I've been to Mentor, but it is a bit too far for a "quick trip" for me. Is that Heritage Rep. mtg. on Friday or Saturday?

[Syncro]

That's me under the pool table, retrieving the cue ball...

Heritage meeting is Thursday PM..last one before summer break. WE are having our fall kick off meeting at water...Nice but small group. about 1/3 rd participants are FReepers.various ages, various professions & varying degrees of conservatism

I am on way back out now also in a few minutes

[DollyCali]

Some statements in movies seep into our language.. How many of these do you recognize by movie and by character speaking the words???

@@@

Today I saw a slave become more powerful than the Emperor of Rome.

After all, tomorrow is another day

My Mama says that alligators are ornery because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush.

(referring to Apple Computers) He got me invested in some kinda fruit company.

I don’t think we are in Kansas anymore

When you become a real boy, remember me to the ladies when you grow up.

I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant.

Play it again Sam

This guy's a restraining order waiting to happen.

Yeah I called her up, she gave me a bunch of crap about me not listening to her, or something, I don't know, I wasn't really paying attention.

I see dead people

Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time.

I'm mortified, petrified, stupefied by you.

You can't handle the truth!

Go ahead, Make my day!

You had me at hello.

Heeeeee;s back

It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.

Houston, we have a problem.

I'd rather have thirty minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special...

Love means never having to say you’re sorry

All I'm saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don't get him first, somebody else will, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband.

I'll make him an offer he can't refuse.

I thought all writers drank to excess and beat their wifes. You know one time I secretly wanted to be a writer.

I’ll be back!

I haven't got a brain... only straw.

That is why you fail.

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn!

Come on in, and try not to ruin everything by being you.

[DollyCali]

May the Lord of great love and of creation keep the men and women of our military in His loving and eternal care. May the families be immersed with peace and comfort as they proudly know their loved ones are giving their best for the things that are dear to all of us. AMEN

Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dutchess; Aquamarine; The Mayor; DollyCali, and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation’s leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.

[Wheelbarrow]

One of my favorites came from Rufus Jones, the great Quaker philosopher, as he overheard a group of us young Philosophy students arguing about which was the best religion: "Gemtlemen, gentlemen, thee does emphasize the differences too much, and the similarities not enough."

[snugs]

"...the universal one, I believe is "because I SAID SO"

My mum's favourite one, which she would sometimes modify to "cos for" or "because" if I kept asking why LOL.

[DollyCali]

You have the most marvelous attitude ... such a joy to know

[DollyCali]

Is your mom able to converse & recall things from past? I know she is in assissted living but not remembering if it is all physical or partly memory/loss of related

[DollyCali]

ah.. in honor of that dear prof you chose to erase any differences & let us see how long the list would be ... outstanding! I have done that on a few posts today also! LOL and welcome again to the Finest Thread! Thanks for visiting & sharing a personal story.

[DollyCali]

That's me under the pool table, retrieving the cue ball...

Can you tell I am finding "important things to do" to avoid mowing in the excessive heat????

LOL

[Syncro]

LOL good one...har! That actually looks a little like me a couple of years ago...

It's raining here, yesterday I watered the garden, figures.

I weed-ate my lawn after the yard police sent me a letter. Don't have a mower.

They wanted me to be the only one in the neighborhood to not park his boat over a little grass. So I complied and enlarged my driveway with bricks and moved it over there.

I do think their main problem was the computer monitor in the ivy...:>)
