When I worked from midnight to 8, I would go with the day crew for coffee. When I was asked what I want, I would say Coors. I got a few strange looks.

One of my best friends was a biology major at Knox College in Galesburg. I'd go up to visit and we'd end up out at the Knox Field station, which was a bunch of strip mine ground out somewhere, caught some decent bass and bluegill out there and had a few too many brew's of some sorts. He stayed in a frat house (don't remeber the name) and I had my dose of frat parties with em all, them boys could flat drink some beer now. I was able to hold my own but.........


Been through Peoria/Canton area several times. Pretty good Pheasant hunting in your neck of the woods.

Been there, you get some strange looks from you waitress, table mates, and other patrons when you order Bacon and eggs with a side of hash browns and toast served with a cold beer.

Right land mass anyway..................

Om or Aum
As the cross is to Christians, the Om is to Hindus. It is made up of three Sanskrit letters, aa, au and ma which, when combined, make the sound Aum or Om. This symbol is actually a sacred syllable representing the Brahman or the Absolute -the source of all existence. Brahman, in itself, is incomprehensible so a symbol becomes mandatory to help us realize the Unknowable. The syllable Om occurs even in English words having a similar meaning, for instance, 'omniscience', 'omnipotent', 'omnipresent'.

I think I went to the ala carte school of religion.

By "untouched" do you mean we have behaved ourselves and we haven't been edited or told to cool our tempers and what not. If so then we should all pat ourselves on our back for doing such a goood job.
