Leslie221 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I was pictured in the 1966 national Girl Scout calendar on a cable car in San Francisco (along with others from my troop!)

Maryanne Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I was a volunteer for "Contact" ( crisis line in New Jersey) and I once saved a person's life. She called to have someone talk to as she was very depressed. I talk her for awhile and realized that she did not want to live any longer. She just did not want to die alone. Her words became really slurred. I ask her if she took anything. She said a bottle of valiums and Vodka. I had to keep talking to her to keep her awake and I very cautiously talk her into giving me her address.(we did not have caller ID at that time, etc) She did and the paramedics took her to the hospital. She had her stomach pumped and she survived. They said they just made it in time. I followed up and was told that she was getting help. To this day I think of her and I pray she got her life back on track. I feel she did. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 I ran for City Council in my town 5 years ago and lost by only 33 votes. That wasn't bad, considering my opponet was the director of the Chamber of Commerce! I'm still very active in local government and sit on a city board.

stand4hope Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I once was a cocktail waitress. When my husband was stationed in Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, I couldn't find work because we were "transients", so I worked as a cocktail waitress at the NCO club for three weeks until Don got into a fight with some guy that was flirting with me. Tee hee! Love, Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teacake Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I was in Plains, GA the night of the 1976 election that "we" won. Then was there in 1980 when "we" lost. Both were great experiences. My hometown is only 20 miles away so we grew up knowing the Carter family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynneH Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 For many years, Jim was a sandblaster and painter of large steel structures. In my early 20's, I helped him paint several water towers (he didn't have to hire a helper!). I don't like heights and I'm not an athletic girl, so let's just say it was interesting.

Kel M Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 That I can be painfully shy in social situations (generally when eligible men are involved), whereas I have no fear about standing up in front of a group of 500 to deliver a speech.

tnmynatt Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I am a twin (have a brother) and delivered two girls on the same day (April Fools Day) six years apart. Both deliveries were marked by major snow storms here in TN--we got about a foot of snow on April 1, 1987 and we got at least that much in March 1993. If you back up 9 months, it's July 4th.

daggiesmom Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 My great, great, great, great, great (not sure how many) grand uncle was Commodore John Barry, one of the founders of the American Navy. He came from County Wexford, Ireland, during the American Revolution. He never married, so his only decendents are nieces and nephews. My grandmother's maiden name was Barry and we were able to trace this thru her name. Joanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
