Dang..... her bio mom sounds like my sister in law...... except she had 10 kids and 9 were taken away.... and all the daddy's were carnies (spelling?)...... seriously can't make this crap up.
Carnival people are a different sort..... but not all bad...... but yeah her situation was bad....I have no sympathy for her either. She's never worked a day in her life. Always has some type of go fund me page going...... right now she needs a car.... last time she called us she wanted to borrow 2 grand for furniture.....

Oh no....I think I'll pass.
Way too twangy for me. ..... I'm more of a "Comfortably Numb" type....

We call that Stoner music in these parts
I like a lot of it though. My roots are in country music I will always go back to it. But I like a wide variety of music from the old hank and Willie to your metallica. There is a group I like called animal in me that does covers of other peoples songs and they do a bit of what I guess people call screamo? I can take or leave the screamo parts but I do like them.

I'm actually okay with it. We've been pretty open and honest about everything her entire life - including telling her we'd help her if she decided to search once she turned 18. We know nothing about the paternal side, so she would like to do one of those Ancestry DNA tests too.

Be careful with the DNA thing.... those companies sell that info.
A regular doctor might be a better way to go.
I'm not sure what companies do with that information but we now live in a world of zero privacy...... I'm not okay with that.... but my kids are....... and as long as the younger generation is okay with it..... its the way it's gonna be.

I find it fascinating how the dude In this band can do that gravelly voice and then just turn it off and sing beautifully!

I crashed my fender into a pole in my yard.... the pole wad one of my old poles for my 18kw wind generators I used to have.... unfortunately I cut them at a height that I could not see it..... when I was turning around in my yard. But that's the first dent I put on one of my vehicles in years.... is usually someone else wrecking my stuff

Now that's humiliating. Unfortunately, I was in the same situation when I tore up the side of my truck on my trailer while I was paying attention to the clearance on the other side.

My parents will tell you that if you play it backwards it will tell you to eat cookies all day
