The Old Folks Home

[ronott1]

no had to fly from my home at the time in Grapeview, WA like many of us did we all where there for 4 months
well first time we had the new stove hooked up no leaks it started on fire gas pouring out of it I ran to shut off the tank BF was outside saying HUH WHATS UP? FIRE!!!! James had grabbed the extinguisher to put it out and making mess from hell... 4 hours later white is gone stove is in the garage old electric back in the house
phone this morning appliance store called this morning I had called yesterday a tad stressed their appliance repair guy is bringing a brand new stove tomorrow we had bought a cool 5 burner but 3 years old it will be a 5 burner also new we went to the right place

I am sorry that the stove did not work correctly!

It is nice getting a new stove. I like gas a lot more than electric for cooking. Baking I am up in the air. Gas works fine but I do have a convection\gas oven

Thank you for coming over to help us. I lived in the Maryland/DC area at the time and was 4 miles from DC when it happened. I remember trying to get home that afternoon, most of the roads were blocked off and the military was there with giant guns on the open street corners. I had never seen anything like it in my life.

Relatives were begging those of us in the area to come home, but I stayed. My roommate left for a week. It was quiet and surreal.

I feel bad that the youth of today don't know a time without technology, nor a time without the fundamental "safety" precautions we have to prevent terrorism. I find it odd that after Ruby Ridge, Oklahoma City, Waco, etc we didn't see the big changes to our freedoms like we saw after 9/11. These attacks truly changed our nation.

Those other attacks were white people from the US, not brown people from somewhere else... that's your difference.... The USA doesn't care about white American terrorists killing americans but they freak out big time if a brown person from another country sneezes wrong...

Finding death does not have a color.. it has a family left behind not understanding color. race or religion death has no tomorrow

Ruby Ridge and Waco were people that government agents thought looked like dangerous wacko's, that was why government agents attacked them, not the other way around. Randy Weaver and David Koresh were not terrorists. Timothy McVeigh was a dangerous wacko (who was ticked off about Ruby Ridge and Waco) that slipped under the radar, partly because he only involved one or two other people and didn't even tell them everything. The smaller the "group," the harder it is to stop them - whatever their color.

Very true, but, when you have white Americans killing people and everyone pretty much goes "that sucks" and goes on with life, and then brown people from somewhere else kill the same number or less and the entire nation goes into lockdown. I mean, there have been days when the gang violence in our country killed as many if not more than 9/11 did and we went on with our lives.

People kill people, it's a fact, a sucky fact, but a fact none the less, have done so since the dawn of time and I don't see it stopping anytime soon.

My husband who has a BA in Religion has an interesting view of it though, all religions go through a phase where they are small and persecuted, then they get big, when they get big, they go through a religious crusade phase where they want to kill everyone that doesn't believe the way they do.... Then they eventually just calm down... The Jews got theirs out of the way back when they were taking over just about any land that they felt that their god wanted them to have, Christians did theirs in the crusades, Muslims are doing it now, so, looks like Mormons are next....

Sounds like your husband spent a lot of time sleeping in class; the inaccuracies here are astounding.
