        My address is 6809 N. 12th Avenue, 85013.  Are you sending
me another bill?
        BTW, I meant to tell you my sons and I got locked out of the
house a couple weekends ago.  Haven't gotten around to making any
extra keys, of course.  Got in through a window broken by a
soccer ball (Wonder how that happened?!?!).  Whew!  Was afraid
I'd have to try and find your number in the phone book.  Oh well.

Those are notoriously undependable.  As you're coming out of 6-space, they
often fail to synchronize the phase shift within acceptable tolerances for
4-space, and as a result, you're slightly out of focus.  This manifests
itself as a vague feeling that something isn't quite right, but you won't
be able to put your finger on anything specific.  After a while, you either
slowly fall back into phase with 4-space, or the perturbations become
magnified and your neural pathways disintegrate.

Could I get to be next in line on that video? I'll give it back to Ann as
soon as I'm done with it. (Unless someone else asks first, of corse.)

I think that we should make it a policy that those who don't attend GTs
should not be allowed to borrow this tape.  Of course, if they want to see
it at a GT of at least five users ...
 
(This is *not* directed at anybody who has so far asked for the tape -- at
least, I don't think so.)

Paul was in, Apollo, the Movie, tape.  He was at the Bob's (he-he) Big Boy
GT.  That is where I threw my ole cub scout handskake on him but "Bob" made
me say that it was "Satan's Handshake".

By the way, there are at least 15 minutes missing on the main tape.  I
wonder what it showed?  I'll never tell.

I'm sorry if I havent answered anybodys posts, I just got my IBM but no
modem card. I had to borrow my roommates modemcard. If anybody has a 1200
baud internal modem (smart) for sale, give me a call at voice 979-0234.
Remember I'm poor now that I've spent my money on the IBM (budget limited).
As soon as I have my own modem, I'll get back into the discussions if you
still want me.
Thanks  The Mad Max

 There are some diversities of belief on this subject, but personally, I
believe that, once a person becomes born again, of the Spirit of God, he is
a child of God from that time on. One who "slacks off" as you put it, can be
considered a backslider, or out of God's will, but he is never out of God's
grace or mercy. (Grace represents that credit we don't deserve but get
anyway, because of what Christ did for us on the cross. Mercy represents
the punishment we do deserve but don't get because of God's love for us.)
 A pretty good analogy to this is your first birth. When you were born, you
became a member of your parent's family. Nothing that happens in your life
from that point on can change that membership. You will always be their
daughter, even if you get so bad they disown you, it doesn't change the fact
that you are their offspring. The same thing applies to God's family. When
you become "born again", you become a member of God's family, through
Christ, and nothing can change that, either. OK?
 Thanks for asking. I am always happy to share the good things of God with
those who ask earnestly. God bless.

        No, it would not have been funnier.  It's much funnier to
laugh at someone who is truly stupid than merely disadvantaged by
a faulty calculator.
        Now stop this.  It's getting tedious and giving me a
headache.

     Yes, that ol' kidder Patrick Buchannan is at it again.  In a recent
column in the AZ Repulsive, he railed against euthen.. euthan.. (oh, hell)
mercy killing.  He firmly stated that no human has the right to decide that
somone isn't fit to live, even himself, and that mercy killing and abortion
were all part of a humanist plot to exterminate the species... or something
like that.
     Mr. Buchannan, besides opposing mercy killing, supports captial
punishment, which last I checked, involves deciding that a particular human
isn't fit to live.
     Maybe he alternates writing the column with his evil twin.  (By the
way, there isn't a "good" PB -- they're both evil.)

        If you see any movie this summer, make sure it is this one.
Forget about Dick Tracy, RoboCop II, Die Hard II ot Total Recall...they cost
to much.  Apollo, the Movie has all your favorite stars... YOU!

        Sandy and I will attend the one at Dean Hathaways this Saturday, at
7:30 pm.   I just got off the phone with Joe Bottomlee, and he may even show
up.  Anyone else I should call who has not logged in lately?

        I understand Roger Mann will be attending bar, and Zak will bake
another batch of cookies.

        Ann Oudin?  James Hawley?  (what happened to Gordon Little?)
Miz Dee? Paul Savage? Rod Williams?  Alan Hamilton as Chris Zagar?
Bob Thornburg?  Head Quasar?  Traci Sibel?  Daryl Westfall?  Todd Reese?
Shirley Bear?  Jeff Beck?  Spaz Brown? hahaha  Beauregard Dog? Nick Ianuzzi?
Steve MacGregor?  Mike McNeill??  Peter Yucca Petrisko?  Gary Jones?  Pat S?

this going to be a pot luck, too, or are we just looking for munchies?

        Pat Buchanan thinks it is wrong to kill people, except in self
defense, the way I read it. I think society has a right to kill those who
are a threat to society: e.g., the death penalty for heinous crimes. Do I
read you right that you do not believe in self defense? Do you also believe
in keeping all species alive, etc.? Even to sacrificing children to keep the
spotted owl and the porpoise?      --John C.--
