frig magnets

I ordered 100 of these magnets for everyone to put on their frig so you don't have to go paging through the QT to get emergency phone numbers. They should be here next week, and I will carry them with me, so grab me if you want one. I am happily accepting spare change donations because although yes, they advertise my business, I wanted them to look cool and really can't afford them, as they cost about $2 apiece.

I am really getting concerned now....X-C ski trainers are not allowed on the roads (what about some of us who walk/jog/run the road at times w/ dogs O-My, who may have to poooo???? are we going to get hauled in?,,,,think about it folks, please.) That is the CU Ski Team or LERT training, I am pretty sure...why else would they do it. We are getting so possesive of "the State of Colorado's roadways". I have lived in JimTown for 30+ years and accepted the fact that we are blessed to live here and am not surprised that it is a destination for allot of people....Connie Carpenter wanabees (in spandex) ski trainers...up-hill is better exercise than down....joggers w/dogs etc. Harley riders...nananana..nobody talks about the Mtn Bike Trails that have been accessed.... It was not a big problem until this past year or so. I don't know what changed....(QT?...forum to bitch and moan...?) I moved up here to get away from the Boulder mentality...not relocate it. I know allot of riders who cruise our/their state's roadways and suggest that they mind their manners 'cause there are "Hillbillies" up here who aren't always nice. For the record...I proudly refer to myself as a JimTown Hillbilly. I have to believe that our state and federal government have bigger fish to fry than these issues. It's your/our/my tax dollars that pay for "all the BS" can't we move on to more important issues now? The QT has provided us with a forum and hopefully a progressibe focus...not just a "gossip/bitch venue" which is a waste of everybody's time. God Bless..........I love JimTown and it's commUNITY!

"Make-up" mojitas at my house tomorrow night 5 p.m.

My own evil twin is in deep doodoo and being forced to make mojitas for all while supplies (rum that is) last. Hope to see you there!
P.S. Lisa, I'd love one of those beautiful magnets. I'll put 2 in an envelope on the porch if I don't see you tomorrow.

Thelma Lou (whoever you are) you are invited too. Enticement... the mint will be freshly picked from my garden right here in JT. Even further enticement... no controversial topics allowed unless they're accompanied by humor! Time to loosen up and chill out ;) a little. Talking to myself mostly now.

Joyti, Thanks for hosting the mojito hug-fest. Sorry, but I can't make it - already had plans for the evening. Enjoy!!! but I will take you up on a mojito on another occassion :)

I know I'm not really a JT'er, but I believe in live and let live, so I totally concur with Thelma Lou. I just thought I'd throw out there that things could be a WHOLE hell of a lot worse around here- just in general, and I try to practice gratitude every day. I was living in Africa before here, and the fact is, if we can be safe from war, environmental catastrophe, hunger, capricious and dangerous authorities (like, they will kill you or throw you into a dark hole of a jail for life, not just give you a ticket), religious persecution, etc, etc, we are doing better than the vast majority of our fellow world citizens. I'm not saying we should be happy with just freedom from these things, but we should be grateful- and that will generally color our attitude otherwise.

Oh- and by the way- I'm heading to Tucson tomorrow to bring my mom back here to live with me. So, if you knew Elean Schein while she was here for 14 years, and would like to welcome her back, then please get in touch with me at stephenehpets at gmail dot com. She talks often of missing here and the folks here and I'm sure she'd be overjoyed to even just talk on the phone with people who know her after she gets here. Thanks.

Steve I liked your post even if you are a "tweener" (Sky Ranch, Matoons etc.) Gratitude ! On another note, you might try posting to the Bar-K QT since not everyone on JT Qt subscribes to it and vice-versa Elean / Mom may have friends "up here" too.
