about oldrebel
Going down that long lonesome highway
Bound for the mountains and the plains
Sure ain't nothing here gonna tie me
And I got some friends I'd like to see
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Yes I'm going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Long Lonesome Highway \*/ Michael Parks [Then Came Bronson theme song]

I'm not sure how a blog from this morning got brought into the last one I posted. You seem to be inable of letting go of one comment that was made as a joke. So you don't/didn't find it humorous. Ok, I get but let it go will ya?

you can find it online or when you are actually laid off, the employment office will send you the form and tell you how much you are eligable for.
You can find out how much you would make now, by going online.

Hey, sorry. I just read that you commented to me. ha! It was borderline funny/disrespectful to me. Of course, yesterday I was in a mood, so who knows. ha! Anyway, I wasn't all fired up about it or anything. :-)

about the little girl...I feel the same way about her. I grew up around water, lived for several years on the Saluda River....I fear all the same things you do...rivers hide many things in their murky waters...
I, too, hope she is found. I am very disappointed in the actions/inaction of the parents of this child. I hate that both the girls were not better supervised, and I detest the lack of input/concern/visibility/haste, that I *think* should be ever present from the parents.
I cannot imagine....so I suppose I shouldn't speak of that, but dang.

Lake Murray is the bomb, too...It stretches into Columbia, and back towards where we lived. Ever heard Of Dreher Island State Park? We always called it "Billy Dreher"...I'm guessing that must have been that man's name....haven't thought about that till now :) We've boated from Prosperity all the way to the dam before (all day leisure trip). Did my "first" dive there when I was 12. One of my dad's bud's took me.
Them there's my old stomping grounds!

No, I’m not trying to “stoke the fire”. I’ve heard various reasons, but I’m interested in the logic they use, and if they use it uniformly. For example, a fellow once told me that Jesus was real because of all the writings on Him. When I asked if the abominable snowman was real because of all the books on him, he changed the subject. He didn’t want to use the same logical measuring stick.

You’re right in that I will get the same answer from some people. But just as the atheists seems to have increased a bit on GOLO, maybe some new Christians (or even more exciting, some Muslims or Hindus) will come on board that are willing to debate and discuss without all the “drama”. Religion, from both sides of argument, is a fascinating subject.

Really great read, it's produced seasonally.(If you can't find it, I have extra copies and could mail you one).

In retrospect, that was not my place to do so. It was yours, if you chose to. I was disappointed that a possible interesting area for discussion was being derailed by incivility, and I reacted too quickly. I'm sorry, and I won't do that again.

Which I appreciated. I, too, elected to just let it pass. There's too much acrimony on GOLO as it is to go looking for it.

No problem...I had noticed the very same thing and had similar thoughts...LOL indeed - sounds like she needs a man and not an 'adult male'.

We live a little further out than Goldston. I'm about a mile back east of where 22 and 42 come back together heading for Asheboro. I am the last mailbox delivery for the mailman out of Bear Creek, just before you get to Fall Creek Road - I love it out here - a little too close to the road but not too much traffic most of the time - lots of cows so that makes up for it.
Ride safe.....

While Jesus does talk a good game of faith, there is a dichotomy to that given He also stressed the physical side of it too (examples include the reason why the blind dude healed with mud was blind in the first place). Lots of other examples in the bible too.
So I’m not questioning people’s faith. I want to explore their logic (WHEN they use it), their reasoning, their philosophy, etc. Most, if not all, just aren’t use to someone questioning such matters, saying gods aren’t there, etc. I think that’s where a lot of the animosity comes from.

I'm right there with ya on that one. Being in that kind of situation makes me soooooo uncomfortable LOL.
I can fill a room with my voice if I choose to - but I'd much rather speak softly. Some people might miss what I'm saying that way, but the people that do hear are the ones that are interested enough to pay attention. ;-)
Hope your Monday is a good one. Take Care

No worries though, you don't have to worry about me defending you behind the scenes anymore-not that you cared anyway. Have a good day.
