andy2 0 #10 July 4, 2003 speaking of "preciate" I have a weird story. So, I was on my way to fill up the toilet paper in the lowes food grocery store bathroom and I tried to open the door, but lo and behold it was locked. Hm, I'll wait, he cant be doing anything that will take longer than a few seconds with no toilet paper, now can he? I waited a few moments, sitting outside, enjoying the break. After a few more minutes I knocked on the door, a grunt replied. Suddenly the door opened, and he sees me standing there holding the toilet paper rolls. He lunges foward and grabs one, and walks very bow legged back to the bathroom, shouting, "I preciate that, I do, friend," in a heavy southern accent. Then the door slams and after a few more minutes he walks out again, this time not so bow legged --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

wmw999 2,148 #11 July 4, 2003 Contratulations to Katie! But we all know she doesn't have to run a 5K to kick ass Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katiebear21 0 #18 July 4, 2003 Thanks everybody!!! Gia is such an incredible motivation. That girl kicked a$$ left and right today and finished 2nd! What a studette! No running track - it was around the camp with one lap on the dirt "track" inside the old prison yard. That part kicked my butt - very unmotivating! Glad I got one under my belt though!They do hash here in Kuwait City apparently every time the Brits come into port. Everybody knows that with the Brits comes the BEER! Thanks again and Happy 4th of July to you all! Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 35 #24 July 4, 2003 QuoteThat's why I love ya girl! Aren't you in Raeford??? Nope, I had to bag on the fun. I have to get new Cypres batteries and a repack next week and since I just came back from a 2 week vacation and am leaving next weekend for another week, I'm running out of money to be able to do everything I want to. I wish I was there though, they have a great group of people gathered. Oh well, I'll shoot for making a trip there when you and CM come home! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
