time of crisis in the Gulf. We need all of the laughter relief that we can get.. Nana "Susan Laity Price" wrote in message ... Just the laugh I needed on this rainy morning.

Well, there's another one.
Boudreaux quit drinking, took a bath, quit chasing women, quit his poker games and laying around. Suddenly he was cutting the grass around the church; even painted it and was faithful to be first to attend on Sundays. Father asked him what brought about the wonderful change that had come over him. Boudreaux explained, " I heard Crisis in the Gulf and if He's this close I want to be ready".

Gosh Donna, Nobody here made fun of you. This tragedy isn't yours or mine.
I'm sorry things have been so bad for you. I suspect that many many folks here have had a world of pain in this life. I'm glad your faith carries you. My God probably has a different sense of homor than yours does. That isn't an insult, or making fun, it just is what it is. No more no less. I hope there is some brightness for you to come. Hugs, Taria "Irondale" wrote in message ... I'm confused as to why you would need a spew warning if it isn't funny to you? Thank goodness folks can keep a sense of humor in the midst of tragedy. It is a survival mode. Clearly, we all see things from a different vantage point here. We are a diverse group, I suppose with each of us getting our toes stepped on occasionally. Taria Sense of humor in the midst of a tragedy. Taria, you do not know my life and the tragedy's that I have survived. Getting my toes stepped on has led to bigger, very painful tragedy's. Spew means vomit. What's funny about that? You don't know how hard I've tried to find that sense of humor amoungst the hell I have been living. I just don't share my crap here on this list. But that doesn't mean I haven't been hurt in a big time way. And people who could have helped and stopped some of this just walked on by and did nothing but cause me more pain. People who I thought were friends, people in professional occupations that require them to help have looked the other way. Worse, make jokes about my entire life. Life has not been good but I keep going the best I can and that's just the way it is. My faith keeps me going. So, yah, I have a tendency in my life to speak up because I know hurt. And I do use the delete button just like every one else can. Donna in WA I was thinking the same thing. I have friends who would not chuckle at this joke.....I don't see anything funny about it myself. All this does is to perpetulate the ugliness to go on from one generation to another. Donna in WA |

Thank you, Taria, for your understanding. And you're
right, no ones gets thru this life without some type of tragedy. But it's horror after horror of which I speak. And it all started out with something little.....like toes being stepped on. And because no one helped, the pain grew and is still growing. So that is why if I see someone's toes being stepped on, I speak out. The other day a gay friend wrote on FB about "B...." people. He couldn't even say black! Because he felt safe to say that, others actually joined him! More then toes were stepped on and if I hadn't spoken up no one would have. They would have let his and others remarks slide by. Not me. And here he has the nerve to say how people pick on gay people and their rights and blah blah. My God is most likely the same God you know as there truly is only one God. And, yes, God has a very good sense of humor. It's what keeps me going. I'm doing my best to keep a promise I made when I was just a little girl of 5....and I'm almost there. I just need a few people to get out of my way! Thanks again, Taria. I didn't mean to strike out on you but I did. I'm sorry for that. Donna in WA "Taria" wrote in message ... Gosh Donna, Nobody here made fun of you. This tragedy isn't yours or mine.
