Certainly something to think about. Especially when it's a hot dog eating contest. LOL!  (Saturday Nov 21 | post #2565)

Five Juveniles Arrested After Florida Teen Set on Fire

Good Morning Bobby, I agree with you about Thanksgiving & The Brewer Family. I did not see their interview on Ch 4. I believe they have a wonderful support system in place--friends, family & neighbors. I even feel for the families of the 5 boys that did this to Michael, but they are where they are because of their own actions. I do agree that I would not know how I would react if, God forbid, this happened to one of my grandchildren. I cherish my freedom too much to do something that would land me in jail. I guess I would take my frustrations out on something non-living---beat some pillows, slam some doors. Maybe even a bit of screaming, but I wouldn't want my neighbors to freak out. LOL. It does appear we have a new friend. I'm guesing female since the screen name is Ma Bell. Make sure you have goodies to bring to your friends homes on Thanksgiving. Please say hello to your friend, Gail. I wish her only good things for her return to work. Work is a necessary evil. LOL! Gotta go to work, to earn money to pay bills so we can eat and rest, only to go back to work to earn more money. And the wheel goes round and round. Sorry about yesterday's quickie response. Suddenly it was time to go home. Whoopee! Have a great day & we'll chat later.  (Friday Nov 20 | post #61)

Why aren't you commenting of these 5 monsters instead of picking on us? If you notice, no one else is commenting on this Forum. The 3 that are being charged as adults plead Not Guilty in court today. As far as I am concerned, they are all GUILTY of pre-meditated attempted murder. They brought the alcohol, they brought the lighter. They planned their mission to hurt Michael Brewer. Michael's life will never, ever be the same and neither should these monsters lives be the same. They need to be as severely punished as Michael's life has been severely changed for the worst. That poor child is no where out of the woods yet.  (Thursday Nov 19 | post #57)

Hello Bobby, Things are ok. Just getting pretty busy at work. Some additional hours available as everyone has to use their pto before the end of the year. A use it or lose it deal. In fact, I'll be taking all of next week off. I can catch up on all the programs on my DVR. LOL! I'm glad it was only a close call. I always believe the hardest learned lessons stay with us always. Phew! What are your plans for Thanksgiving? I will be with my daughter. We're even having a pre-Thanksgiving dinner with some people who will be out of town on Thursday. Later....Gail  (Thursday Nov 19 | post #56)

Today is a perfect day for a birthday party in the park. The sun is shining, the weather is cool-but not cold. I like my job. I've been here 15 years this past July. I like the perks, too. Pay is what it is. I have to work because there is no one else to pay my bills. My mother passed last year and if I hold my breath waiting for my brother aka the executor to send me money, I'll turn blue. So it's a good thing that I like my job and most of the people I work with. I remember people calling the Sun-Sentinel crude names, which I won't repeat but I'm pretty certain you can guess. You still have to register (I noticed you haven't) here and with the SS. I just noticed something--the full story is dated for my birthday, Oct 13th. Later---------  (Saturday Nov 14 | post #52)

Good Morning. It's seems this is the only one that moved over to Topix. I post thru Sun-Sentinel. They changed the way people can comment on the news. They used to use this one (Topix) but changed it a couple of months ago. Not too happy with the changed since you cannot click on "reply" to address someone's comment directly. You have to copy & paste now. Ugh! The weather has been spectacular since Thursday. You will have a wonderful time with Joshua outside today. No getting all sweaty while simply standing still. Friday was just another day at the office. Hope you enjoyed your dinner. It always feels good to get home after a hard day at work. Work is one of those dirty 4-letter words. Lol! :-) Have a fun day with Joshua. I'm at work...again. Seems I never escape. "Talk" to you later.  (Saturday Nov 14 | post #50)

I agree with you about "Actions speaking louder than words". Maybe because Bent held all those jobs, he was able to become a middle-school loan shark. My understanding of this crime is because Michael owed Bent $40.00 he borrowed for a video game. Michael didn't pay in time, so Bent tried to steal Mr. Brewer's custom bicycle. Michael called 911 to report the theft of the bike and Bent got the other boys to help in retailiation. Your father-in-law didn't run to Canada with his tail between his legs. He did luck out with not having to see active combat. Kinda like my uncle was NYPD. He lucked out with working for the Property Clerk. He had his picture in the paper when some wise guy decided to pay a traffic ticket with pennies. He also worked at the Impound Lot in College Point, NY. I expect to be at the Jazz Brunch on Sunday 12/6. We sit under the trees by the Esplande, across the street from the IMAX theatre.  (Friday Nov 13 | post #48)

Hello "Bobby": My ex-husband served in the Navy around the time of Vietnam. I don't believe he saw active combat. I prefer North Broward, too. Several years ago I drove a co-worker home to Hollywood, even though I lived in Pompano Beach. I didn't mind the drive, but the streets were flooded. Reminded me of growing up in Queens, NY. My neighborhood, especially the streets I had to walk to go to the school bus stop were low-lying streets that flooded after every rainstorm. The street I lived on was built higher than the others, so it did not flood. Happy to hear "Mrs. Logston" is aware of our friendship. I got to baby-sit my grandchildren last night for a few hours. I forgot to take the picture of Spongebob Squarepants that Josh drew for me. He also did a picture of Patrick Starfish on the other side. Did you hear that Michael Brewer asked for french fries and a milkshake yesterday? That is wonderful news. Sounds like something a fifteen year old would want to eat.  (Friday Nov 13 | post #46)

Kristen, I never said that you were stupid. I said that you need to write in English, not in text talk, for people to understand what you are trying to say. You are entitled to your opinion on these kids, which I happen to agree with. These "kids" need to be punished.  (Wednesday Nov 11 | post #408)
