(64,931 posts)I'm going to see my Dad and his new wife tomorrow night on my way back to MD. He and his wife are 85. My mom died three years ago after a long battle with dimentia.

(56,177 posts)But the thought of ever getting married again was completely out of the question! It was weird, he could date, but no more than that, because he felt he would be cheating on my mother!

Fucking Amish. Leaving shit piles all over the road!!
Fuck Slippery Rock, I going to see Ohio Northern this fall and probably a high school game or two. BTW, has Zac Dysert seen any action in training camp this year??

(20,365 posts)Zac who? Oh, him! He'll probably get cut if Manning and Osweiler stay healthy.
And I hate the fucking Amish because they run puppy mills.

Genealogy is a pretty cool thing. An Aunt of my coal miner grandfather was a moonshiner and bootlegger. I guess that might explain a few things!!

(64,931 posts)It was very dangerous, also, as I had several gg-uncles who died in mine accidents.
My grandmother was a teacher which helped them get through the Depression, though being a woman made it harder for her to find work.
