^When I vote for a person, gay issues are the last thing on my mind. I make sure economic issues are taken care of first. If you're in my check and finances, we got a problem. So for the last 8 years, I've had problems. They gotta go. But I remember people were so crazy about "Family Values" and they voted for those hot, unimportant issues and the party slipped in all these laws that put us in our wonderful economic condition today. Oh well, if you're too busy trying to get into everyone else's house to watch your own, someone will slip into yours and mess it up. Besides, I'm looking at these ringless fingers and I'm no closer to getting married as I was eight years ago. Terry

Aren't the citizens of California going to have to do a vote or something? Or am I wrong? No. I believe the people voted the ban into law and the supreme court struck it down. But that just sets the stage for a constitutional amendment, which is silly considering this 4-plus dollar a gallon gas and weak a$$ed dollar situation. Can we actually do something useful first? Besides all my straight friends got divorced after less than 3 years of being together and my gay "married" friends are still together after all these years. Don't quite sound right huh? I say ban divorce if you want to protect marriage. These "Protect Marriage" people won't go for that though. Terry

I doubt there's any harm in waiting. You both are young so there isn't any rush. That is unless you think you are going to try to meet someone in the states for those few months... is that why you are questioning yourself? Terry

Well I got 20 years of experience on ya, so you probably should take my word on it. I didn't earn the nickname "mama" among my friends for nothing ya know! Terry

^Good afternoon ladies, gentlemen... haters. I say if the guy doesn't like it, buy a plane ticket to Orlando and bring his camera. Then show us how it's supposed to be done. Otherwise... well... you know the rest. Terry "sad people just love showing their in these threads" Weaver EDIT: You know when I get back from Europe I'm gonna have another coaster-lite TPR... so get ready.

^I was more or less looking at the content of his post and his profile. It doesn't sound too positive. You know if I've learned anything, it is to make something good out of any bad situation. Believe it or not, you can find something valuable to take out of school if you make the effort to look. But you won't find anything with a negative attitude. I would use those last "two years of hell" and find out what makes you happy and see if there is something the school offers or if there are classes available to pursue it. Skipping school is not going to help you; try to learn something while you are there. You're setting yourself up to where you are going to head into life. Terry

What you just posted is a good example of drama: stressing over feelings you have for someone when there is no chance of anything happening. And if it did, chances are it would have ended really badly. It seems to me that all that energy can go someplace else. But really think dropping it is for the best. When I was younger I was in a similar situation with my best female friend; but I told her it wouldn't be fair to be with her when I still liked guys more. She protested a bit, but years later she told me she thought that she could "turn" me; she was in a bit of denial over the whole thing and she couldn't admit it. But because we didn't make things awkward between us, we have been friends for over 20 years. Terry

^Well confusion is the worse thing you can bring into any potentially romantic situation. If you aren't thinking about sex, you may love that but she might not. You go for it and sooner or later it's gonna come up. You deny her and you're gonna hurt her. If you can't commit yourself fully to being with her, then leave it alone. What you are doing right now, young one, is creating drama. D-R-A-M-A. Had to spell it out for you. You'll recognize that type of stuff as you get older. Terry

He doesn't look too happy in this pic. And he's probably not doing his share of the parental duties. Poor wifey. He's all buff and she's...well... you know. He might want to cut short his gym visits and watch the kids for a while and let her catch up before they wonder how that other woman got into the picture. Ain't fair at all. Terry "yeah I said it" Weaver P.S. I would love the layout of California's space mountain in Florida too. The Magic Kingdom is the least visited of the Florida Disney parks; it's always too crowded and most rides aren't worth the wait compared to the other parks.

I went to a outdoor party last weekend with my friends and my friend Joanna runs back laughing. She tells me how she was at the bar and somehow her bikini top fell down right as the bartender was asking her what she wanted. Yep she flashed the bartender! She said she turned beet red. I told her "You should have said 'Can I have a cup of ice?'" Terry

^And PLEASE don't stare at the boobies as noted in the picture above.

I think with that one statement a few people's world went:

He may need to put down the fork first. He's letting that shape go! Terry

Only in Florida: http://sun-sentinel.com/news/local/miami/sfl-flb3bdig05191sbmay19,0,663642.story Woman dancing on bar sets customer on fire in Miami-Dade A woman dancing on a bar accidentally set a man on fire early Sunday after noticing her foot was in flames, Miami-Dade Fire-Rescue said. The woman, described as in her 20s, was at Drake's Bar in Kendall when she agreed to help out with a display involving liquor and fire, authorities said. According to Fire Rescue, she hopped on the bar, started dancing, then realized her foot was engulfed in flames. She reacted by accidentally kicking the flaming mixture into a passer-by, Fire-Rescue said. (Can we say Molotov cocktail?) Paramedics arrived at the bar, 13758 SW 88th St., about 2 a.m. The man suffered burns to about 20 percent of his upper body, authorities said. Paramedics took him to Ryder Trauma Center's burn unit. The woman was taken to a hospital. Drinking, liquor and fire is NEVER a good combination! You know that girl was drunk and drunken uncoordinated dancing around fire is as dumb as it gets. Somebody should have told that bar that. Hope that insurance is paid up, because they're getting ready to get sued and some people that organized that spectacle are gonna get fired. A mess. Terry "always stands away from volunteered bar activities" Weaver

Well crap. I was looking forward to riding this. Terry

I thought it was really, really ghetto. And not in a good way, if there's such a thing as good ghetto. Terry

Here's a few new pics of me at Volunteer Appreciation social. Yay for Mojitos served! Terry Staff worker Alicia. She was telling me how she used to be hooked on crack before she started working there and getting herself clean. She's been off it for 13 years and now is working on a project on her own to help others in poor communities. My friend Annette and I

And thank you for spoiling the surprise for me when I go on the TPR trip next month. When they say nice surprises, let's keep 'em that way 'eh? Terry

@Gary: That reminds me of some the rides I used to make in RC1. Terry

You know when you turn 40, the doctors are trying to make you take all kinds of tests... especially when the doctor is your friend! So I did my annual blood work and the results came back; a lady noticed that the gender was marked on my forms as female!?! Now what are they trying to say? They let me have it! My lesbian friend said I can go this weekend to the Aquagirl beach party this weekend with them... I just need to bring those blood tests to get in! Terry "I got some wonderful friends" Weaver :

A similar incident happened in Florida, a woman was driving with her 6-pack of beer in the passenger seat, and a teen mother was in back with her daughter on her lap! A mess! Terry

Yeah, I do. You've been misinformed. But there are plenty of other variables you have to take in account... Wait, this isn't my site... I'd better hush. Terry

Uh Uh. Leave me out of it. Terry

My car didn't want to get left out of the spending spree: $747. Yeah I know it didn't want to get neglected, but could it have waited another month? Terry

If you don't drink, then I really don't think that's your observation to make. If a person isn't responsible when they've drunk too much, then they don't need to drink. I'll have a drink or two when I'm out (spaced with water so I can help flush it out and keep my complexion together), but I don't get drunk when I have to drive. If I'm blowing off steam and someone else is driving, then I have more flexibility in my choices. But ultimately you still have to somewhat responsible for your actions. For me, drinking was never a big deal; heck I took sips from the beer my father gave me when I was 10 years old. So it was something that I never had to sneak around to do. By the time I got to college, it wasn't a big deal and I didn't have to drink to get drunk. But then if wanted to crawl around slobbering with the gang, then why not? As long as I got good grades and it wasn't distracting me, I could. I will say for those young people that do drink or party "hardy", remember: you only get one face. All that stuff ages you and goes directly to your face. You'd be surprised how many people younger than I have to hide in the shadows because they'd partied so much that they got tons of wrinkles and black marks under their eyes. It's not pretty. Moderation always works. Not only will you be responsible, you'll keep your looks longer. Terry
