Hello...

[Claire]

I received an "infraction" by Pastor Ezekiel for *gasp!* posting in the Men's Only forum, so he redirected me here and told me to tell you all about me, about what church my husband takes me to, and what my husband's favorite pies are.

Well, first thing's first: My name is Claire. I live in Boston, Massachusetts. I'm 18 years old and just finished my first year at college, majoring in Veterinary Technology. I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant.

My age and the fact that I am attending school should be indication enough that I am NOT married. I have no desire to marry, and I have not attended church for many years (the only times we would ever go to church were when my grandparents were visiting, or if we were visiting them in Georgia). Now, as for the "pie" question, just because I am not married does not mean that pie does not get baked in this household; I'm human, I'm entitled to enjoy a slice of pie once in a while (although I prefer whoopie pies from Whole Foods).

I am currently looking for a job for the summer, but have so far been unsuccessful. I've resorted to walking my mom's friend's dog for five dollars a day. Sure, it's not the greatest money, but it's fun and gives me the opportunity to train a dog for the first time (she's from Indonesia, and has never before walked on a leash).

I have two cats - Tasha and Charlie - who are just the sweetest little animals you could ever meet.

I enjoy classical music, as well as some rock, but I dislike hip/hop. My favorite music is the Original Broadway Cast Recording of "Annie".

I do not eat ice cream. My parents raised me to eat very healthily, and that is how I still eat (although technically my parents are still taking care of me, so I guess they still pretty much have say over what I eat). I have never seen "Sleepless in Seattle". I don't like "chick-flicks".

Re: Hello...

Who What do you eat. A Christian diet is very important.
Still sponging off your parents at 18? My kids are on thier own at 13, except the retarded one. He stayed till he was fifteen because he was funny to trick not ready as early.

It is traditional for guests to introduce themselves in most cultures. We are quite civilized here young lady.

A future nurse! Wonderful. Nurses truly do God's work, helping men who are far more qualified to be doctors.

My age and the fact that I am attending school should be indication enough that I am NOT married. I have no desire to marry,

Nonsense, eighteen is practically the perfect age to marry. Or are you a lesbian, in which case marriage for you is impossible.

I have not attended church for many years (the only times we would ever go to church were when my grandparents were visiting, or if we were visiting them in Georgia).

Very sad, ver sad indeed. As I was reading this post I had such high hopes for you Claire. Just eighteen and already you have turned away from God. Such a shame.

Now, as for the "pie" question, just because I am not married does not mean that pie does not get baked in this household; I'm human, I'm entitled to enjoy a slice of pie once in a while (although I prefer whoopie pies from Whole Foods).

You would rather buy pies from a gay-friendly, liberal, pro-vegetarian, hippy-run "health food" store than make them yourself? You are truly misguided my dear.

I am currently looking for a job for the summer, but have so far been unsuccessful. I've resorted to walking my mom's friend's dog for five dollars a day.

For a woman of your dubious quailifications, that is a rather princely sum.

Sure, it's not the greatest money, but it's fun and gives me the opportunity to train a dog for the first time (she's from Indonesia, and has never before walked on a leash).

Who is from Indonesia, the neighbor woman or the dog?

I have two cats - Tasha and Charlie - who are just the sweetest little animals you could ever meet.

I doubt it. My cat, Mr. Fancy Paws is far cuter than your cats ever will be. He's a showcat you know.

I enjoy classical music, as well as some rock, but I dislike hip/hop. My favorite music is the Original Broadway Cast Recording of "Annie".

Hmm. I'm not sure what to make of this. If you were a man, I would say this would be incontrovertible proof of your homosexuality. But as woman, being fond of musicals is natural and even expected.

Claire, Jesus brought you here for a reason. Leave your Godless lifestyle and join us! You have nothing to lose, and eternity in Heaven to gain!

All of the food we eat is either All Natural or Organic. I drink skim milk and the only bread that we eat is whole wheat (even the burger buns). We eat brown rice instead of white. Instead of rice pilaf we eat a Kashi 7 Whole Grain Pilaf. We eat meat no more than once a day, and it's always a lean meat like chicken breast. My sister and I were "crunchy granola" kids - we got things like Shredded Wheat, plain Cheerios, and Raisin Brain as cereal instead of sugary junk like Fruit Loops and Lucky Charms. I'm too young to drink, but my parents have a small glass of red whine every night after dinner, and they never, ever drink hard liquor.

There's nothing wrong with living with and depending on my parents at my age. I was always very "clingy" as a child, and I still am not ready to leave my parents. A child cannot be legally emancipated until age 16, so I believe that what you did with your children was illegal. A 13 year old is still a child, and therefore needs care from a parent.

[James Hutchins]

Re: Hello...

Ah, you have hippy parents. Well, that Kashi guy is a pretty clever capitalist, so you cannot be all bad.

You are clingy? A cattle prod will break you of that nasty habit. Sending a person off at 13 is good for them, builds character. You want them to become old and bitter, realizing what life is about when it is too late? I say, get it out of your system while you are young and can heal rebound. Being the man and head of my household, I make the law. and the law is, unless you have something to offer (like a dowry or being funny) then out you go at 13.

I apologize for not introducing myself properly.

Perhaps you misread what I wrote - I happen to be a Certified Nursing Assistant, but I'm attending college to become a Veterinary Technician. And I am offended by your comment about men being more suited for the M.D. license.

In my opinion, 18 is still practically a child. And I'm not a lesbian, but even if I was, I live in Massachusetts, so I would be able to marry. In fact, my next-door neighbors were the first same sex-couple in Massachusetts to receive their marriage license five years ago. I am very happy for them for that!

Yes, I would rather buy whoopie pies from a gay-friendly, liberal, pro-vegetarian health food store than make them myself because I am also gay-friendly, a liberal, and WISH that I could become a vegetarian. Whoopie pies are not actual "pies" as we know them. They're essentially icing squished between two miniature chocolate cakes. I don't make them myself because I don't think I could make them as well as Whole Foods does.

And five dollars a day is really not that much to ask for walking a dog, especially a dog that hyper.

A cattle prod? My parents love me and aren't barbaric, nor are they abusive. Sending a child off at 13 is illegal.

Keep your doors locked when you listen or watch Annie, and be sure to rewind your tapes.

Re: Hello...

Claire, why are you acting so angry at GOD? Why don't you want to settle down with a nice True Christian man and have soldiers for CHRIST?

You come across as a stubborn and independent woman (very bad) and yet you say you are totally clingy and hooked on your parents. Something seems wrong here.
