1. I have numbers contantly going on in my head.
2. I enjoy the smell of burning leaves.
3. I once walked in the wrong company, asked for the Telecom manager.
His name was Dan that I was to meet.
They had Dan come out and meet and greet me.
We went back to a conference room.
He asked how I knew they needed a new Phone system.
I told him that he had called us.
Then he handed me his card.
Wrong Dan wrong company.
But you know what he let me call the other customer and told them I would be late.
I sold within 60 days $700,000.00 to the wrong customer and $300,000.00 to the right customer.
Both told me because of my honest mistake and honesty they awarded me the business.
4. I was called to the minsitry at age 14 and will still deliver that calling. Get ready..
5. I once stood up at a Major League baseball game, while on my phone.
I yelled her it comes. That was opening day April 3rd, 2006. The problem was I was on my phone and did not realize the pitcher had not thrown the ball. Then within 2 seconds the ball headed right towards my seat. I caught the ball with 44,500 people sitting in the stands. The group of people around me just looked at me like I was crazy. It was was for sure my prophetic nature, I was on the phone trying to talk to my wife as the fans in the park were screaming for Rickie Weeks to get a hit. I will attach a picture of the ball later...

Good to see you back well enough to post Bro.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
Before I got kicked out of the Missionary Church, our youth group was planning a weekend canoe trip one summer. That same summer I was spending my days babysiting for a local family in their home (I was 14). They had a bby boy about 6 months old who was eating baby food in the jar. Many days after I fed the baby, I would wash the jar out and then fill it with liquor from their liquor cabinet and sneak it home in my purse.
Then when our youth group went on that canoe trip, we had a youth leader (now my brother-in-law) who was pretty easy to walk all over. We convinced him to sleep in the car because the weather was cruddy. The girls were to sleep in one tent and the boys in the other. John was the only "adult" spending the night with us. The others were driving down the next day to join us for the canoeing.
So after John went to sleep in the car, we kids broke out the baby food jars. Didn't we have a time!! It was raining and storming all night, so John didn't even come out of the car to check on us. It ended up with the boys all sleeping in the girls tent with us. Their tent was leaking badly. Besides that we had found this female dog that we convinced ourselves was about to have puppies.
You know, thinking back, when I think of incidents like this, and then there's the one where we went skinny dipping after revival services in the Apostolic church........... I'm amazed that anyone would have wanted me in their youth group. LOL
Boy, Margie, you seem so square now. LOL! I did a fair amount of that too. One time, my friend and I broke into a camper and drank the booze in it. Okay, I better stop with the stories now. I did too much stuff!! Most of the time, when people tell stories like this, I smile, nod and busy myself. They think it's because I can't relate.

I have a really funny story, but it's not on myself. Can I tell it?
When I lived in Owosso, I started attending a church in Durand for about the last year. At one point, I was going to move apartments. Several of the people from the church came to help, including the pastor's wife from the Durand church.
Prior to this move, my siblings had been up to visit for a few days. While I was gone, they apparently were smoking pot in my apartment. I knew because I had a terrarium in which all of the plants had died a few months before. All of the sudden I started growing the prettiest little marijuana plants in that terrarium. Guess where they tossed their seeds! LOL
So anyhow, in the process of the move, the pastor's wife noticed the terrarium and begged me to sell it to her!! I'm like, "noooooo, I don't think so!" She begs and begs and finally just says, "Well, then can I at least have a start off of that plant in there?" By this time, her kids were rolling on the floor laughing!! And I was DYING!!!
When she finally left the room, I grabbed that thing and ran it out to the dumpster just as fast as I could get it there!!
