Sometimes I say things that I later regret. It is very easy to type at a keyboard and not think of another person's feelings or how they will react. Some people don't care how their posts are taken by others. I do care how my posts are taken. I can be wise guy, but I never intend to cause harm.
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 07-20-07 AT 05:59AM (CST)[/font][br][br]Hey, I'm from upstate NY. We're regular folks just like the rest of you. The stereotypical NY'er that everybody loves to hate is from downstate.
Thanks for providing the perfect example!! And you're right that we shouldn't judge people because of their home state. Small town America carries the load and has the best people (overall).
She was a carpetbagger in Arkansas and we deny any connection. We don't consider Chicago part of middle America either. Didn't she go to Wellesley(sp?) Women's University?
Is there some significance that we are discussing Hillary on a thread about turtles?
You do realize when Hill becomes the next prez, it will be like the Second Coming, everything will be perfect, lambs and lions will frolic together. We will have universal health care.
It's a great quote whomever said it! It will be a scary, scary world but it could be an interesting reality show because it looks like it could become real!! Bill will be a good role model as first lady though... Speaking of turtles, we've had hundreds of them run over lately because of all the flood waters around us. Guess we need to post "turtle crossing" signs....
Which brings up the story of the dying Catholic priest. On his deathbed, the good priest called Senator Kennedy and Hilary to his bedside. Hilary held his right hand, Ted his left. Ted & Hilary told the priest they were honored to be chosen to comfort him when he passed on. To which the priest replied, "Don't be, I just wanted to die like Jesus, surrounded by two lying thieves".

We hit 1,000 posts here, a far bigger and more notable feat than uttering "I like turtles" while in zombie makeup, and nobody outside of the Forum says a danged thing.
And Ray is still waiting on his HR Hero martini shaker from the folks in Brentwood.
Ray, I'm calling Kimmel and Ellen. You'll get your 15 minutes of fame. Since you prefer NOT to be the center of attention, we'll have Paul stand in for you. He'll love it, and probably say something even more hilarious than "I like turtles," like spouting out words or phrases that include your name. x:D

I know this has come up on another thread, but why do you do .....? You just get bored and play with your keyboard?
Hillary is a downstater.
