&lt;br/&gt;I think you all are desperate to be thought of as 'clever'. This tribe should really be called the " I am Very Good At Being Clever" Tribe.
&lt;br/&gt;Clever counts for nothing when you have pay the bills, excrete and you get sick. really sick. Post to this ignoramus tribe smarty pants when a catheter is dangling out of your carcass.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Okay, I tried to read all of the posts in this tribe.  What's wrong with you people?  You are far too friendly, which leads me to the conclusion that you are all from the left coast. We easterners know what's up and we know we are right irregardless of how little we know about any subject. Don't argue. It will do you no good. Your moral indignation is absent and your lives are far too easy. You've been coddled. Get some backbone and some subject matter and then we can talk.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;As I watched Jerry Fallwell on TV last night,

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Golden Rule he has turned into Lead: 
&lt;br/&gt;Now it only reads "Do Unto Others". 
&lt;br/&gt;He wants to insure we have Crosses to bear 
&lt;br/&gt;And supports laws to repress his Brothers. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;His Dogma oozed out like Puss from Christ's Wounds 
&lt;br/&gt;Reeking of Bigotry and Malice. 
&lt;br/&gt;I'm certain his Holy Rituals produce 
&lt;br/&gt;Vomit From Wine in his Chalice. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Back when Burning Man was cool (pardon me, kewl), people were going on and on about how wonderful it was.  Now, people are going on and on about how horrible it is.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;How 'bout let's just either go or not go and be done with it?  It's fulfilling to some people; it's a waste of time to others.  Fine.

&lt;br/&gt;Escaped robber returns to annals of weird crime/Cops say 'Roofman'
&lt;br/&gt;lived large in store
&lt;br/&gt;Demian Bulwa, Charles Burress, Chronicle Staff Writer
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The slick-as-fry-oil robber known as "Roofman," a former Army
&lt;br/&gt;reservist in
&lt;br/&gt;Concord who drilled and dropped into fast-food joints from the Bay Area
&lt;br/&gt;to
&lt;br/&gt;Massachusetts, is back behind bars with another whopper of a saga.
&lt;br/&gt;His downfall this time? A woman.
&lt;br/&gt;By day, Jeffrey Manchester's spent his six months on the lam as a
&lt;br/&gt;generous
&lt;br/&gt;churchgoing volunteer known as John, who gave toys to kids and told his
&lt;br/&gt;new girlfriend and church congregation that he had a secret government
&lt;br/&gt;job, police said.
&lt;br/&gt;At night, he was a fugitive hiding and playing in a Toys "R" Us,
&lt;br/&gt;making
&lt;br/&gt;his lair in a cubbyhole in the bicycle display, racing remote-control
&lt;br/&gt;cars
&lt;br/&gt;on the roof after hours and riding bikes around the store for exercise,
&lt;br/&gt;said Sgt. Katherine Scheimreif of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg, N.C.,
&lt;br/&gt;police.
&lt;br/&gt;He even monkeyed with the employees' work schedules, and his diet
&lt;br/&gt;included
&lt;br/&gt;stolen baby food, she said.
&lt;br/&gt;The crafty and polite Manchester, 33, was serving a 45-year sentence
&lt;br/&gt;in
&lt;br/&gt;June when he hid under a delivery truck and became the first person
&lt;br/&gt;ever
&lt;br/&gt;to escape from the Brown Creek Correctional Institution in Polkton,
&lt;br/&gt;N.C.
&lt;br/&gt;Suspected of at least 40 robberies at McDonald's and other
&lt;br/&gt;businesses in
&lt;br/&gt;the Bay Area and across the country before being sent to prison in
&lt;br/&gt;2000,
&lt;br/&gt;he was caught again last week in Charlotte, where police are still
&lt;br/&gt;piecing
&lt;br/&gt;together the brazen new persona he created.
&lt;br/&gt;When the Toys "R" Us where he was holed up became crowded during the
&lt;br/&gt;holiday shopping season, he fashioned a secret passageway into an
&lt;br/&gt;adjoining Circuit City that had been abandoned, Scheimreif said. In a
&lt;br/&gt;cubicle he built of sheetrock under a stairwell, he painted the walls,
&lt;br/&gt;put
&lt;br/&gt;up posters and action figures, mounted a toy basketball hoop and
&lt;br/&gt;watched
&lt;br/&gt;Spiderman and other movies on a DVD player, she said.
&lt;br/&gt;Meanwhile, he planned a takeover robbery of the Toys "R" Us, even
&lt;br/&gt;installing a baby video monitor in his cubicle to see what was
&lt;br/&gt;happening
&lt;br/&gt;in the store. Police believe he got a gun by robbing a pawn shop, but
&lt;br/&gt;when
&lt;br/&gt;he attempted the Toys "R" Us robbery on Dec. 26, authorities said, two
&lt;br/&gt;employees slipped out, forcing him to flee through his secret door and
&lt;br/&gt;allowing police to find his hideaway and the clues that led to their
&lt;br/&gt;identifying him.
&lt;br/&gt;They didn't find him, but two members of Crossroads Presbyterian
&lt;br/&gt;Church
&lt;br/&gt;recognized police photos of the man who had joined their church in
&lt;br/&gt;October. Police also linked him to the arson of a Charlotte dentist's
&lt;br/&gt;office where he had gone to have his teeth fixed and which he is
&lt;br/&gt;believed
&lt;br/&gt;to have torched last Tuesday in an effort to destroy his records,
&lt;br/&gt;Scheimreif said.
&lt;br/&gt;When police told his girlfriend in Charlotte, Leigh Wainscott, who
&lt;br/&gt;he
&lt;br/&gt;really was, it was a "huge shock," she said in a phone interview on
&lt;br/&gt;Monday
&lt;br/&gt;night.
&lt;br/&gt;"I was numb and in shock. I was hysterical," she said. She refused
&lt;br/&gt;to
&lt;br/&gt;believe them until they showed her evidence on the Internet, she said.
&lt;br/&gt;"He was very well-spoken, well-dressed, clean, generous," she said
&lt;br/&gt;of the
&lt;br/&gt;man she had been dating since mid-November. He volunteered for the
&lt;br/&gt;church's outreach program for needy families, giving their kids toys,
&lt;br/&gt;she
&lt;br/&gt;said.
&lt;br/&gt;Those toys apparently came from Toys "R" Us, Scheimreif said.
&lt;br/&gt;"My pastor and my congregation all fell in love with him
&lt;br/&gt;immediately,"
&lt;br/&gt;Wainscott said.
&lt;br/&gt;He bought her diamond earrings and expensive scarves; he gave gifts
&lt;br/&gt;to her
&lt;br/&gt;three children. They spent the holidays together, decorated her
&lt;br/&gt;Christmas
&lt;br/&gt;tree and went to movies.
&lt;br/&gt;But after learning his real identity, Wainscott agreed to cooperate
&lt;br/&gt;with
&lt;br/&gt;police and arranged for Manchester to come to her home on Jan. 5 for
&lt;br/&gt;her
&lt;br/&gt;40th birthday. Instead of finding her and her children, he was nabbed
&lt;br/&gt;by
&lt;br/&gt;waiting police.
&lt;br/&gt;His big mistake was "going back for the girl one last time,"
&lt;br/&gt;Scheimreif
&lt;br/&gt;said.
&lt;br/&gt;After his arrest, police allowed him to call Wainscott.
&lt;br/&gt;"He was very sad and humbled and felt terrible that he had to
&lt;br/&gt;deceive us,
&lt;br/&gt;" Wainscott said. "He encouraged me and told me to be strong and to do
&lt;br/&gt;the
&lt;br/&gt;things we talked about doing. He wasn't upset."
&lt;br/&gt;"I don't hate him," she said. "I'm disappointed and confused. I
&lt;br/&gt;don't know
&lt;br/&gt;whether to smack him or hug him."
&lt;br/&gt;Manchester also got to talk to his mother after the arrest.
&lt;br/&gt;Explaining his capture, he told her, "Mom, I kind of lost focus,"
&lt;br/&gt;she
&lt;br/&gt;recalled Monday. The mother, who asked not to be identified, lives in
&lt;br/&gt;the
&lt;br/&gt;Sacramento area, where Manchester's twin 13-year-old boys and 11-year
&lt;br/&gt;daughter also live with their mother.
&lt;br/&gt;"He doesn't seem super-embarrassed about the notoriety," his mother
&lt;br/&gt;said.
&lt;br/&gt;"I know I would be."
&lt;br/&gt;"As his mother, I can't imagine," she said. "This is something you
&lt;br/&gt;would
&lt;br/&gt;see in the movies."
&lt;br/&gt;Indeed, some people said the escapade reminded them of the Natalie
&lt;br/&gt;Portman
&lt;br/&gt;film "Where the Heart Is," about a pregnant teenager who moves into a
&lt;br/&gt;Wal-Mart, Scheimreif said.
&lt;br/&gt;As Manchester sits in Mecklenburg County Jail, police are
&lt;br/&gt;contemplating
&lt;br/&gt;what new charges to lodge against the man they describe as meticulous,
&lt;br/&gt;intelligent, athletic and so polite that he was known to give captives
&lt;br/&gt;a
&lt;br/&gt;jacket before ushering them into a walk-in freezer.
&lt;br/&gt;"You hate to compliment the guy, because he's a dirtbag, but we can
&lt;br/&gt;learn
&lt;br/&gt;a lot from him," Scheimreif said.
&lt;br/&gt;"It won't surprise me if he escapes again," she added. "He's that
&lt;br/&gt;crafty"

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Well duh...
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"The bus pulls up and everyone gets on and we go bowling. No, I'm not kidding. You've heard of the bus trip but you didn't beleive it. You think there is something you don't understand. You think that YOU'RE not invited."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Well, nobody is invited technically.  You open the bus, people get in.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"After the Dr. Hal show at the Odeon Bar the first Wedensday of the 
&lt;br/&gt;month a green bus pulls up and we all pile in it and go bowling."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Yes, but this is the 2nd Wednesday!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes, the bowling alley is open late."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;and it is mullet-laiden too!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No, there is no fee."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;That is funny, people always ask me for money when I bowl :)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes you can bring your friend."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Only if SHE is cute, single, and between the ages of 18-30.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Say, Chicken... can you pass me that sugarbowl filled with cocaine?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No, but thank you for asking."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Oh well... :(&lt;/div&gt;
