Reply to Knowing Who I Want to Be and Getting There in Misc JoeUser Forums

Motivation can be tough to come by at times. I do have a suggestion that works for a lot of people if you care to read it. Place a full-body photo of yourself, as you are now (and unhappy with) where you will see it as soon as you open your eyes in the morning. (Wall, ceiling, beside the lamp, whatever) Seeing the picture and feeling unhappy with the way you look may just give you the motivational "kick in the pants" to get on out of bed.</fo

THEY are Everywhere in Misc JoeUser Forums

It has been my personal crusade the past few years to expose THEM for who THEY really are; subversives controlling the masses. Everyone is familar with THEM on a subconscious level. Every day you here someone make a reference to THEM. You've probably done it yourself without even realizing it. "THEY say ________." "You know what THEY say, __________."

I think we all long for the "old days" as filtered through our rose colored glasses. I am permanently stuck on old 80's rock. It really sucks when you hear your favorite songs on "oldies" stations and "classic" stations. As for the old 40's era music, have you ever listened to it? I have an XM radio and I often listen to the old 40's channel. They actually had some pretty good music back then. Love the Andrews Sisters. But my heart is still o

How Did I Become a Trucker? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I was asked how I came to become a trucker. Yes, I have a bit above average intelligence and am pretty well educated and very well read. In school and college I excelled in math and science subjects and my primary major in college was Electronics Engineering in which I finished top of my class. Now, don't misunderstand here, I am not bragging by any means. I am simply

never struck me as a job with a lot of mental challenge.....how on earth did "something of a science nut" get into driving them? Gerry, I won't go into it on this thread as it's irrelevant to Ock's article and I don't wish to disrespect Ock by taking his thread off topic. I'll post an article about it

Yes floozie I am positive on it. I was sitting and watching when MTV launched. I clearly remember how appropriate the video was for launching a music video channel. Dire straights was the second video they played.

Hmmm was looking at these and noticed that mine doesn't show my rank any more. Don't know how long it's been like that. I rarely looked at that anyway, but now I have to ask, WTF??? Also I've noticed that on my blog page the links at the top for JU Home and Forums is missing. I KNOW they used to be there. HMMMMM. I think THEY have been tampering with my blog site.

Reply to Blacklists, and Censors, and Trolls. Oh My!! in Misc JoeUser Forums

Well, somebody just had to go and make me do it! After saying that I had never deleted anyone's comment on one of my articles, some jerk just had to make me do it. On one of my articles somebody (I won;t name names) pposted a rather lengthy comment that was not only obnoxious, but had absolutely nothing at all to do with the article in any way, shape, or form. I just knew that as soon as I said I had never done it, some jerk would come along a

Reply to Talk is cheap in Misc JoeUser Forums

When I first starting teaching school, I needed dressier clothing than what I owned. I went to the Goodwill store and found a couple of very nice suits (I did have them altered a bit) for about $30 for both of them. I also got a couple pairs of slacks and a couple of sport coats. All of this for about $50. While I now have a closet containing suits that each cost between $500 and $1200, I will never knock anyone who buys their clothes at Goodw
