Why, a tuna, of course. Geesh! They travel in schools, which is like a herd under the sea, too, so you don't feel left out or anything. ACME, there's already a Shark...Mark G, the one and only! Ciels- michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

So many posts attempting to impugn me....so much wasted bandwidth. Irrespective of your thoughts on my impartiality, of which you have no clue (good or bad), I will ask my questions about Kerry again in a Kerry thread... ~Has anyone heard that Kerry, proponent of reducing the outsourcing of jobs here in the USA, had acampaign call center in Canada? Isn't that outsourcing? ~Does anyone know if the Heinz corporation outsourcing anything? Or are all of their corporate holdings here in the US? And here are those other questions (two of which were answered by quade and Mark H - thanks, guys)...from earlier in the thread.... Does anyone know anything about the following (and if you have links, that'd be good): {~Kerry's early dismissal from the service? (MarkH answered this very well...thanks!)} ~Kerry's position on terrorism? ~Kerry's committee affiliations?(Quade answered with the current assignments/appointments, but I was also wondering about historical ones.) {~Kerry's affiliation with Skull and Bones? (quade answered this...thanks!)} Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

I got stood up for lunch today....so I never ate, thinking he was going to show up any minute.... And I still can't drink any alcohol, 'cause if I start to hurt, I need to take a pill...and I don't do the mixing thing well. Sigh...

ROFLMAOPIMP!!!!!!!! That is the best line I've heard lately! 2 points for you, Keith! Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

It's raining here, and I'm thinking it might be a great night for a thick stew and some homemade bread.... Have fun, Lis! I vote for Tollhouse Cookies....but had you asked earlier, I would've suggested banana chocolate chip muffins...the most delectable treat around! Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

As she said. Steve, you, your family, and especially your brother are being prayed for, loved, and held safe. If there's something I can do, please let me know. I'm not too far from Palm Springs, and if there's a service I can do, I will be happy to. Reach out when you need to - there is some great experience in this thread - and lots of sympathy coming from others. Blessed be. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Phew. I was a hair worried it was some kind of political statement. I'm getting better, slowly but surely. I am considering tunnel time (if I can afford it financially) before getting back in the air, as it's been such a long time for me....but we'll see. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Good grief, you have a point. No wonder why people don't know who I am at the DZ....well, it's either that or the lack of an avatar.... Quade, I am not stalking Steve. I would, but I'm not really good at stalking. I just tend to blurt out things like "cute bottom" or "wonderful eyes", and leave it at that. Sigh...I guess I need lessons from Flyangel2 or Sunshine.... ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Well, how about Colliers? What, you don't know what that is? Oh. LOL, you're right, I said "likely candidate." Unlike many others, I am looking at and researching the likely democratic candidate, to see how they compare with President Bush...and to see who will get my vote. One of the things I look at is history... So, did Kerry have a campaign call center in Ontario Canada? And what about Teresa Heinz's outsourcing of the Heinz corporate giant? Ciels- Michele (edit for typo.) ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Um, all righty then....(Blkpnthr? Where'd that come from??? LOL!!!!) Steve, it was wonderful to see you happy the other day. Those twinklin' baby blues are a sheer joy to see. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

I assumed you'd be there - the Calendar Girls take flight, don'tcha know.... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

I could've started a whole new thread, but I thought I'd just add to this one... Has anyone heard that Kerry, proponent of reducing the outsourcing of jobs here in the USA, had acampaign call center in Canada? Isn't that outsourcing? Also, does anyone know if the Heinz corporation outsourcing anything? Or are all of their corporate holdings here in the US? Again, just looking into facts and thinking about - researching - the likely democratic candidate for Pres.... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Go Jen! Go Jen! Go Jen! And remember, December we have a skydate...just remember that. No getting out of it, girlio!!! Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

With the british voice-over? Kinda funny....but I agree with Bobsled, the screening music dancing one is rather cute... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

You know what it does to you? It gets me to send you VIBES and HUGS and PRAYERS and LOVE and HEALING and LOVE and MORE LOVE and then even some MORE LOVE and it also gets me to tell you that if you need to vent, lemme know, 'cause I'm not too hard to find. I can't give you any information, but I can let you know I'm thinking of you, and if you need anything, sing out. Deal? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Spectacular answers, guys, thanks a bunch. SDUGregory, all wonderful suggestions, some I have done. When I look at my father, and listen to the stories he is willing to share - and listen to the stories he doesn't talk about, either; although that listening is not with ears but with my heart - I know my father is a war hero. If only to me. Keep the thoughts coming, please....I do appreciate them! Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

With all the yammering of "I am a war hero!", what does that really mean? What is, to you, a war hero? My father fought in WW2, in BCI. He is permanently disabled because of combat. He is, to me, a war hero. I have several friends who fought in Viet Nam, and they suffered greatly. Significantly wounded (one was shot in the belly, but survived, and the other one lost part of his foot). They are war heros. I don't know if I know anyone who has fought and been injured significantly in either of the Iraq wars... So, what is a war hero to you?

All I want to understand - and then my life shall be complete - is why I read that page. I feel doomed to unenlightened incompleteness forever. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Karma, Steve....that's the one thing I know. People who do that kind of stuff to others will get theirs. Karma will reach out and bite them on their bottom and it will hurt.... Let me know how I can help. I will be more than happy to do so. I'll even smack them (verbally, of course) should the situation merit it. And I think it just might. Out them when you know, and let us all find out who the jerk is. The person who did that is someone without integrity, and not someone I would trust to let me know my chest strap is loose...and that's someone I want to make sure I never jump with.

Kev, do not underestimate the opponent. And do NOT get in an elevator with her again. Or anywhere alone with her. AT ALL. Wait for the next lift, take the stairs, stand on your head and scream, but do NOT do that again. Please. Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

I gotta say, LToC was a wonderful movie. If one watched it with an open mind, then one saw the message behind it, which is that all men have choice, and Jesus chose according to God's wishes. I really, really enjoyed it. As for controversial, it was, but that's because it wasn't a sterilized version of Christ. Most controversial? Personally, "Agnes of God", based on a true story. But it wasn't widely seen. On a broad based stand, "The Exorcist" (the original one) was rather good, and also "Texas Chainsaw Massacres" (again, the original one).

No, but there are a select few who I wish were banned...and prolly not who you think I'm referring to (or maybe it is who you think I'm referring to....but I won't tell....). Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

Dear Fred: As you are aware, my life has changed dramatically since I accepted the position of XX in this firm. While I have enjoyed the challenges we have faced together, and while I find satisfaction in the work we do, I feel that it is taking me away from my original career goal, which is XX. Because of that, and because of the changes in my personal life, I have found a need to change positions. Please accept this letter as my notice of resignation, and rest assured I will do whatever you deem necessary to make the transition for the firm as smooth and graceful as possible. Please know that this in no way reflects the firm, the people here, or the work being done; it is simply the result of great personal reflection and difficult decision making. Thank you very much for the time we've spent together. I appreciate it greatly, and know that in the future we will remain friends, as well as colleagues. Best/Sincerely/whatever YOU. ~~~~~~~~ Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~

"At the rally, Senator Kerry and representatives of organizations leading the charge against ANWR spoke against domestic exploration and instead encouraged people to rely solely on energy efficiency and alternative fuel sources. However, the behind the scenes reality was very different than the message being delivered. "It's unconscionable for Senator John Kerry to stand on stage and tell the American public to accept higher gasoline prices, forego energy stability and to hold Congress to his standard of environmental integrity, while behind the scenes, he and his friends arrive in chauffer-driven SUVs and limousines," said CREA President Italia Federici." From CREA. While this may not be the most impartial website, it still brings to light something which I find interesting, and, as you catagorized, "hypocritical."

Doesn't Kerry drive one of those "ol SUVs"? I could've sworn he did.... Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~
