But you guys get a sneak peace of the kinds of things I teach my closest friends, privately.

Truly, if you're going be calling yourself a 'master of the art' you'll be needing a bit thicker skin.

Be Well.

who do you think yourself to be,
belittling those you could never help,
but smile and pretend you could empower...

i care not for liars,
i care not for intimidation,
i care not for those who preach Jesus with a whip as you have,
your pride can not possibly fit in my life.

Cheers.

I do not participate in chat for a reason. I'd prefer to not be involved in any drama(s) that goes on there.

I'm done with chats forever.

The problem with believers, they let anyone through the door.

The problem with deceivers, are all the bodies buried under the floorboards.

Re: Mad World
The house I grew up in didn't have central heating or air when I was young.

We had a wood stove and fans.


Southern Oregon is cold in the Winter and hot in the Summer.

One Winter afternoon, it was super cold in my room and I plugged in the small space heater and laid down in front of it. I wasn't wearing pants, and the heat against my legs was super comfortable and warm.


I fell asleep in front of the space heater, suddenly waking to my mom grabbing me in a panic and a few second later being forced under freezing water. She was rubbing the cold water over my legs while, I cried wondering what was going on.

I found out after the fact..she found me asleep next to the space heater only a few inches away. My legs were bright red and she thought I had been burned by it.

I wasn't burned. I also never fell asleep in front of a space heater again.


Today 2022, a space heater burns down a tower full of people.

sweetnostalgia
 Quoting: Seer777


^I've spent most of my life looking back on this event thinking my mom totally overreacted. Thinking about it today, maybe she didn't and had I laid there much longer I would have been burned.


In another event, she woke up in the middle of the night with a 'bad feeling' and went to check on us.

My brother was about 3 at the time and his bedside lamp had fallen over on his pillow right next to his face and had burned a hole straight through the pillowcase and was starting to smolder the feathers beneath..

I still recall seeing the hole in his pillow the next morning when she told me the story of waking up.

 Quoting: Seer777


Lol...literally burned myself on fire/heaters/etc with less of a reaction then that...

An early one was with those bar heaters...would huddle in front of it during the winter mornings while getting ready for school...back up against it, and had some wonderful brands across my butt for a while

Re: Mad World
I always figured if it started to burn, I would have woken up but I can't say for sure.

My mom was a pediatric nurse at the time, which probably played into her sudden anxiety when finding me in that position.

I was just a little kid. Kids sleep different than adults. The energy routinely wakes me up at night over the last 10 years.

Ever wake up with your entire lower-half hard vibrating? I wake up like that a lot. This morning in fact.


I wouldn't call him that. He's my partner, not my 'hubby'. I've never used that word in my life. I find it base.


Agree about the slumlords. It's a major problem and rents are at an all-time high.

Re: Mad World
My point was, you'd have woken up if you were in pain. That you weren't burnt after examination and calm kinda backs that up.

Any of that stuff effects me quite a bit differently then you're descriptions.

Alright...welp sorry if it bothered you.

Can't risk those tasty profits. There's at least legal avenues you can take in Aus if the rental is in disrepair - had to threaten that club to get my neighbours leak fixed and mould removed - do such things exist in us?

That's how I always felt about it. I recall being pretty mad about the whole episode after the fact. I understand her fear though.

No need to apologize, just want to be clear.


We have Renters Rights here. I think that Covid is exposing the rot that exists in this country.

Re: Mad World
Think it's certainly bringing it to the forefront... ive seen enough stories of how a single piece of misfortune, such as needed emergency medical treatment, can utterly ruin someone's life in the USA purely for the costs.
Let alone things like epi pens, minimum wages, social safety nets, wars and corruption and... well... if people are seeing it and willing to do something about it would almost call covid a win... tho after a few years in...eh

Lou Pai

Lou Lung Pai (born 1947) is a Chinese-American businessman and former Enron executive. He was CEO of Enron Energy Services from March 1997 until January 2001 and CEO of Enron Xcelerator, a venture capital division of Enron, from February 2001 until June 2001.

He left Enron with over $250 million. Pai was the second-largest land owner in Colorado after he purchased the 77,500-acre (314 km2) Taylor Ranch for $23 million in 1999, though he sold the property in June 2004 for $60 million.


Pai was not charged with any criminal wrongdoing in the Enron scandal and exercised his Fifth Amendment rights in regard to the subsequent Enron class action lawsuits. As a result of the lawsuit, Pai forfeited $6 million due to him from Enron's insurance policy for company officers to a fund for Enron shareholders.


Accounts of the Enron scandal have frequently portrayed him as a mysterious figure; a former Enron employee, interviewed in the 2005 documentary film Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, referred to Pai as "the invisible CEO".
