True, Pirate... but are you gonna let the shit rule you?

Oh wait... another program song comes to mind: I Shall Not be Moved

Now go look up Bob Dylan and sing three choruses of I Shall Be Released

There is nothing on earth intended for innocent people so horrible as a school.  To begin with, it is a prison.  But it is in some respects more cruel than a prison.  In a prison, for instance, you are not forced to read books written by the wardens...School was to me a sentence of penal servitude.

 If any of you remember Bill W.,   there was not much hope for

him when he started.  I think he ran away from Straight a couple

of times.  But,  he was one of those people,  that the staff just

didnt have much hope in......and believe me,  the staff had every

reason to believe he wouldnt make it!!

   My brother's story of  survival and subsequent graduation from

Straight Inc.,  is truly an inspirational already beestory!!!  


Funny - I remember a Bill W. starting this "stepcraft" mess in the first place!

On the note of brainwashing - my 22nd anniversary recently passed, and as for the past 21 years, I noticed the date approach, and a certain part of me irrationally braces for "a bad day".

It isn't a significant date... there is no celebration or reverence, but why should I take special notice of April 9 of each year?  Especially since my experience was limited and not even with Straight?

I think what it boils down to is the experience -  whether regarded as wonderful or horrendous - was a (forgive the language) life changing event, and those who believe they were saved from being deadinsaneinjail truly credit Straight, et al. with this perceived "salvation".  

So be it.  You can't change a mind that's solidly set.

Speaking strictly for myself, I'm going to have a glass of wine, puff on some tobacco smoke, and celebrate my few hours of solitude  - all without  the slippery-slope fear that this will definitely result in my demise.

Happy Easter Everyone :grin:

Who are you addressing?  Just thought I would ask, seeing how there are some who view participating in any conversation earns the title of "narcissist" around here.


Is uniformity [of opinion] attainable? Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half the world fools, and the other half hypocrites.

Speaking of disorganized thought process, I've already stated that I currently attend NSU. My statement about Bundy was completely seperate, hence my addressing that latter statement to someone else! Haha, you're just a fuckin' genius, aren't you!  :lol:"


We can compare smarts anytime you'd like to, genius (My line... long before you came along).

Maybe next time, Einstein, you can properly frame your reference.

I agree with you,but HELEN does not read the post before reply."


First of all, it's Helena... with an "A".  Let's not get me confused with a certain short, blonde crone who gave a whole new meaning to "big hair". :grin:

Yes, I understand the bone of contention is that someone's real name came out.  

Unless this has caused some damage -  such as termination from a job, or your wife up and left for that reason alone, and demanded alimony before the door hit her in the ass - IT DOESNT MATTER!

....and speaking of "Doesn't matter"... I'm not even sure why I continue to watch this thread.
