OC, you could start a couple of magazines. One for the serious trade press, called Christian Shopkeeper; and one that's more tongue in cheek, called Christian Shoplifter.

Now to be serious: that really stinks. Do you think it's an inside job? Based on the way the inventory is going it looks like rip-off for resale.

Y'all got any security cameras?

YES but we are going to update the system.  I agree about the resale angle.  I want to put a sign up at the front door that says thou shall not steal and have a bolt coming out of heaven frying a person with a cd in their hand!

I did OC.  I can't say why, just feeling exposed somehow.

Sometimes I actually feel exposed just by posting, especially when no one responds.  It touches those sore spots of rejection that I know are healing.  So I just pulled my head back in my turtle shell.  For no reason other than my seesaw was down again. - GS

Yeah, like my Gift of Prophecy thread.....oh well, YOU got it GS!!!  I can see your picture in my brain......you AND CB......I know sometimes I think my mom or aunt or daughter is in here reading all my postings but I can't see some of them being smart enough to navigate around.  I think my daughter would but think it was lame anyway!!!!!  And I don't say anything here that I don't say to her during some of my rants!!!

Well, my mom and I had a little talk today.  I just don't see why she just keeps coming back with "you and I need to get together to figure out what to do about______________."  You name the subject.  Doesn't she understand that I don't want to get together and talk about "things" at work?  Talking with her makes me crazy.  I just need to tell her to leave me alone and I'll just do my job.............I don't want or need any input from her.....

Just like you Gift of Prophecy thread Kell.  I really do understand why things go by without comment and I know not to take it personally and I don't on individual things.  It's the accumulation of no responses that weighs down and reminds me how alone I am in my very thoughts - even on this place where people share something that no one else gets. 

OC - my "blessings" has helped me enormously.  I am much more civil and feeling somewhat freer.  I am oh so thankful for your prophecy thread.  It has made a true difference in my day to day life. - GS

Kell, I've been doing the same thing, also hoping more people would want to post pictures.  It's really nice to see these smiles.  I like picturing the face to go with the words.

Just today I saved the pics ti my hardrive, and want to print a page and hang it by my computer, so I don't have to keep going back.

Did GS and CB upload a shot?

I forget......................that's why I want a page of pics printed.

If we all do that, then we can take ours down, after a given time.........

I knew I should have saved them........I wish I had more pics of the rest of those scairdy cats

Oh well, I think it took us all a lot of guts to even do that.  It is easy to come on to a board like this because you can say ANYTHING YOU WANT.  But when your pic is attached to the sentiment.........

Pennyplant - I was hoping more would put their pictures up too.  I found myself very excited to see what we look like.  It was like finding a present under the tree.  - GS

I wonder why it is so interesting to see what others look like?  Maybe it is because we are hard-wired from birth to look for smiles and expressions to mirror.

I like knowing what people really look like compared to what I thought they would look like.  I guessed right about Hops (remembering she had said she has a face shaped similarly to Jackie O, and also the white hair.)

I honestly thought people would look frazzled!  And they don't!

I had pictured Bean as having short, spikey blond hair--thought GS would have dark, black hair and eyes--I thought Beth would be more serious looking--hee, hee, I thought Izzy would look "old" since she says she is "old"--I thought Kell would be conservative looking or plain--and this one is really imaginative--I thought CB would look "amish"!  Oh, boy, I gotta wonder about my brain sometimes!

Ha ha Penny!!!! I need to work on my serious look ;)

You know the hardest pictures for me to reconcile are those of people on the radio. I always have a fuzzy idea of what they look like by their voices.

Another thing that was really weird for me was when my kids were born. They are inside of you for all that time and you have this pseudo image and then they look nothing like it, and yet they look familiar. Weird, huh????

Images are important... I guess it's like reading a book and then seeing the movie version. My mental images are not that strong, though. I make up hazy, general visages more often...

OK... have I beaten the subject to a pulp yet????? LOL
