I want this on my front door



Here's another one I received in an email with the Subject line "the truth".


Women are Angels.
And when someone breaks our wings,
we simply continue to fly..... on a broomstick.
We’re flexible like that.

Statements that resonate with me



In order for you to insult me, I would have to value your opinion.

Don't attempt to drag everyone you come in contact with under the bus with you, just because you were stupid enough to play in traffic!

Especially this one:

Don't make your problem MY problem, because you won't like how I handle it.

Just because you think before you speak does not necessarily mean you have something intelligent to say!

Sometimes I wish I could just slap the stupid out of people, but I know the only outcome would be a sore hand...

I wish I could do this one:

When life gives you crap, stick it in a bag, light it on fire, and leave it on the porch of the person who caused it.

The human gene pool needs chlorine! (old, but still true)

Conclusions? Interpretations? Comments??



Here are copies of two emails. The first one I wrote, and the second is the response I received.

Three very good men got thrown off a neighbor's property, and one of the reasons screamed at my husband (to take back to me one assumes) was that if his "serious bitch" of a wife ever wrote another "fucking email" like that again, blah, blah blah...

Below would be the "fucking email" referenced... ...and the response...

Draw your own conclusions.

Subject: A very loving 'heads up'

I feel compelled to write to you both. I have heard at least two stories from people that were unknowingly dosed during last weekend's Festival. In both situations, the person offering 'just a drink' didn't specify what they were sharing. In one case, after a couple swigs of rum, the victim saw faces melting and women with full beards. In another, from the tiniest sip of wine, she couldn't speak coherently for 30 hours afterwards. I heard, not verified, that there was a laced orange soda going around, as well.

I know it wasn't either of you, and I wasn't sure if you were even aware it had happened. Hence, my feeling compelled to write... From all accounts I have heard, it was the same culprits in each instance.

I realize the simple answer is to not drink what is offered to you. That is not the best answer for me, personally. One of the beautiful things about any festival I have been to is the connection, the group mind, the love, and the sharing. If I have to have my guard up for reasons of personal safety and well-being, it is not a place I desire to be.

I love you guys. You have a beautiful vibe. If it was only me I had to look out for, I might feel differently. I cannot be on the lookout for my family at all times, however. It would be very bad if something like that happened to either L---- or A-----.

I really don't know what to do, beyond informing both of you of this activity, and keeping my family safe. Obviously, not the most ideal solution... I want to show my support for your endeavors. How do I do that when a very real element of fear has entered the scene for me and mine? If you have other, better ideas, I would love to know what they are. I think this situation needs to be resolved, for safety reasons, if nothing else.

I love you both. I felt I had to say something. I would hate for either of you to be blindsided later.



May the Goddess Bless You,
~J~

Well I assure you we know nothing of this. I doubt it is true. Thanks for your concerns. We certainly don’t want unfounded slanderous rumors like that floating around, in print or orally, so thanks for letting us know. Please erase this email.
