      Yeah... no kidding.

      Wonder how you peeps feel about family??

      I spent the entire summer last year running everyone here and there and everywhere on the water. I had a place in a trailer park where several other related families also had places. I seriously took them everywhere... Only one person ever offered me any money at all. I didnt take the money, but was very appreciative. I will admit that it got annoying that all I did was bleed green for them. Do you guys expect to pay for family regardless and do not expect them to pony up any money?

        sorry Regulars are expected to pay. Newbies (or infrequent guests) are freebies. Fat girls are expected to bring snacks and hot girls are expected to wear very, very little--or they pay gas money too. Family would be expected to pay unless they were outta towners.

        Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

            Get out of CA? Hmm? And where should I go to find such honest people like everyone on this thread? Detroit? NY?
            Chicago? Here's another perspective: Girlfriend works for police cheif....domestic burglary crimes are up 74%. I ask if this was just their district, the answer was no.

              A few months ago I received an envelope that had been hand written from Texas. I don't know anyone in Texas. I cautiously opened it and low and behold, the title to my truck! There was a little note inside the read, "Howdy from Texas! I think they mailed this to me by mistake."

              Texas,

                so my random act of kindness happened the other day. A professor from East coast school send me a scathing letter about how if I didn't get my paper to him before midnight, he wouldn't accept it. Even though I'd recieved an extention, due to family difficulties. Problem was I'm not going to school there, the professor transposed the r & e in the email based on my name Jeffrey. So I send him and the student the info, and apparently the kid wasn't aware of the new deadline and got his paper in on time.

                I'm pretty sure the kid gets nudie photos meant for me occasionally too...so it's a major win win for him.

                Btw, midwesterns are by far the nicest overall group of people around....except of course people from Detroit! LOL

                  Well, I figure this would be a random act of kindness. A good friend of mine is struggling a bit to make ends meet. He's busting his balls trying to sell his business that he just couldn't keep running once the housing market crashed, trying to get going in insurance with his dad even though he really doesn't want to but, got bills to pay and a 1yr. old and a wife at home so he drives a limo at night just to try and keep his head above water. He aint got no money fer nuthin fun. Me and another friend decided to build a race car for him. He loves these things and would run them all the time if he could so, he bought the parts and I put in the time to do the conversion and body. Homeboy could use a break.

                    Actually a friend of mine was in Japan with his GF and he lost his wallet. It was returned to the hotel a few hours later with more money in it than what he had originally. I am not pulling your leg here either.

                    There are still some good Americans around its just a few spoil it for the rest of us.
