Oh good lord. That last one made my stomach lurch.

Nice pics though. I've never been to your part of this small world.

Looks a lot like the lower mainland if it wasn't populated, sort of. What you were looking at is on a flood plain. Came close in '93 of going over. Went up all the way to the top of the levee, they had to close the flood gate and the shanty town (well its not really a shanty town but horses are on dog chains and burned out mobile homes just sit in a vacant lot. Its an eye sore) Rockwood, Illinois. If you ever drive down that way ignore the speed limit but watch out for the road, its pretty crappy and you'll go flying into the mississippi.

Chicklet · Jul 07 06 12:11

I always ignore the posted speed limits

kitten · Jul 07 06 12:18

I always watch the speed limits. That doesn't mean I always obey them, but I watch them.

Nice pics SD and thanks for sharing with us.

Could you next time post a picture of yourself?

I'd like to see more than your foot.

I'm in a flaming mood at the moment so here comes a rant:

150 year old church my mom and her family went to. She was baptised there, confirmed there, married there (my dad even made a cross for them that they use on easter) but because she belongs to the other lutheran group (the more sane one) they want nothing to do with. She doesn't exist in there eyes. She can't take communion with her own family anymore because she goes to the other lutheran church. Pathetic.

Sportsdude · Jul 07 06 12:21

I got a picture of my curly hair. If we ever meet I want to shock everyone might take a shadow pic one of these days.

purelife · Jul 07 06 12:24

That's what religion is about, some can be a**holes because they like to segregate and alienate those who aren't "one of them." They can just go and f*ck themselves!

Oh, that pisses me off too.

purelife · Jul 07 06 12:25

Let's see your pic of your curly hair NOW!

preety please.

Sportsdude · Jul 07 06 12:27

Yeah. The funny thing is that I've done everything in spite of what they believe in. They disapprove of mixed marriages or inter-faith marriages so you know what I'm going to do.. Marry a girl who what they don't want. (Mix marriage, inter faith). I got this I'll show them attitude.

Sportsdude · Jul 07 06 12:27

okay. I've got even funny pic but it shows my face. *runs to the cell phone*

purelife · Jul 07 06 12:30

mixed marriage meaning different ethnicity? ie, caucasian with asian?

Sportsdude · Jul 07 06 12:32

Yeah, inter racial. Well I took a pic, and I got my eyes in might scare some people so do you want to see SD's eyes or just hair and eyebrows?
