What exactly is this “cracking” you’re insisting we’re asking you to do? ---

She could rename herself James Otto Bitch so as to be known as JOB. But at this point, I’m thinking she’s likening herself more to Jesus on the cross. ---

As the OP of this thread, I’m once more asking for the saner members of this board (read: anyone but the pittee) to let this one go. Listen, guys, there’s only one important thing to take away from all this (besides the comprehensive list that **Gyrate** was kind enough to supply)… Since her goal is to SERVE THE LORD above all else!!!, once you note that she completely disregards her own holy book’s guidelines on how to behave (“I won’t forgive anyone unless they forgive me first!?” – What. The. Hell??), then there’s nothing else to accomplish here. If even God can’t penetrate that thick skull, the one she gives the ultimate authority in her life, there’s no way in hell that Teh Evul Dopers would stand a chance. So, please, please, pretty please, instead of another thirty pages of “I know I am, but what are you!?”, can we let her idiocy only be contained to a post here or there that’s easily ignored? Versus giving her attention and that inane ability to believe that somehow, if you squench your face up right, that a particular jab out of 2,000 posts is a compliment and therefore we all support her actions. Just let it die and know that the better men _always_ walk away first. My .02¢. ---

^^^ **I won’t forgive anyone until they ask me to is how it goes with me.** If people don’t forgive me when I ask, that is all on them and when it comes right down to it all the way, it really isn’t any of my business whether people decide to forgive me when I ask them or not. > [@Pine\_Fresh\_Scent](#): > > I thought about boycotting McDonald’s because of JOSH but that’s just crazy talk. They make a good cup of coffee. Thank you for saying that. 🙂 🙂 🙂 I have a cousin that has asked me what kind of coffee it is that we make and honestly I don’t know. The packs just say McDonald’s Coffee on them. God bless you and my cousin always!!! Holly ---

Bleah, I hear enough about fracking on the news around here. Residents are constantly screaming groundwater contamination and the gas companies keep saying “nuh uh, we didn’t do it.” Does that bread stay nice and fluffy when you use the whole wheat flour? The wheat bread recipes I’ve tried seem to come out like a bowling ball. I’ll be baking my Easter bread this coming up weekend and making the house smell good. ---

I do 1 cup white whole wheat and 2 cups white and it’s nice and light. Not wonder bread spongy, but not dense like 100% whole wheat will do. I think the trick is to use the White WHole Wheat flour- it’s lighter in texture. Fracking is big around here too, Scares me, actually! ---

It’s become the dWW! :eek: Which is still not as scary as this quick bread my manager tried to make out of the pulp from her juicing machine. Nothing like ground-up kiwi seeds in a piece of bread. Untoasted quick bread should not crunch! Plus it was really gummy and didn’t taste like much.
