does it matter what we say.....and how is the winner chosen?

Doesn't matter what we say (as long as we keep it clean, of course). And the winner isn't exactly chosen. The winner is the last one to post. Since that may be 1,000 years from now, though, there's no need to order celebratory cigars quite yet.

Oh, okay! Guess I would have missed that point, regardless. Not because you don't have every right to suffer when it comes to parting with something personally precious to you, but because I deliberately burned that reaction out of my personal repertoire in 1984. In the interest of purging myself of "old attachments", I literally threw almost everything I owned into a dumpster in Portland, Oregon. Right down to my baby pictures, my high school Valedictorian trophy, and a large colored photo of the best winning professional bull ride I ever made in my rodeo career.
Did hang onto necessary clothing and--wouldn't you know--my science fiction novel manuscripts....

Awwww.... EX bull rider, anyway. Grew up on a Montana ranch, "ranch raised and rodeo bred". Never did make it to the National Finals but was on track to get there when I suddenly realized it was time to hang up my spurs and do something else with my life. Let me tell ya, THAT will shake up your psyche, just flat out spur-of-the-moment slap down what had been a life goal for years and head out in an entirely new direction.
Could be a bit of reason for what eventually became those 7 marriages (Pam and I've been together 13 years now, still hooked at the hip) AND two bankruptcies... - Crazdwriterposted 15 years ago0

Well, you two, I DO appreciate the appreciation! And yes, I'm still a real cowboy...right down to wearing a cowboy hat (due to the fierce Arizona sun) and building the walls of our new home with the use of barbed wire.
A house made of barbed wire? It works like this: The walls are constructed of sandbags filled with dirt right from our land--in fact, it's the actual dirt removed when the contractor dug the trenches for our septic system. Two rows of 4-point barbed wire are laid between layers of earthbags and act sort of like velcro, holding everything together.
But no livestock, unless you count our 3 cats, 1 leopard gecko, 2 baby kangaroo rats we rescued and raised and returned to the wild, a few field mice we've saved, and the 4-foot Mojave green rattlesnake that recently leaped 9 feet down into our "outhouse pit" (where I dump our toilet buckets until the house is done).
No, I don't know what the big snake was thinking--either trying to get away from me or trying a sneak attack. If the first, it miscalculated the width of the pit. If the second, my spiritual protection redirected its flight and saved my life (this snake is much more deadly than most rattlesnakes).
Just another quiet day for the retired cowboy "down on the border". - Ghost32posted 15 years ago0
Ghost I wish you well with the house building, I'd give you a hand, but too far away.

Hello all, a bit boring on the forums so I wrote another hub about something boring...
Hello earnest. You're quite right but personally, I can make it less boring by engaging in a 'lively' debate with one of my countrymen who says all kinds of negative things (in another thread) about my country
.Hello Emie, nice to see you always.
