Rating Boxes
Who has time to play silly games with red and green boxes.The information from posters most of the time was well intended to help others and the rest--I just didn't read . I'mafraid the help that is really needed isn't going to get listed .IMHO

I haven't rated anyone today. I've just been watching my colors change.

I don't see how you're playing with the boxes will be seen as a bad thing. Your contributions far outweigh "playing with the boxes" any day.

I guess we're all guilty of playing the box game a little. So what? It seems like about the only fun thing around. There are no jokes, no humorous closing stories, just the boxes!

Yes I was playing with those boxes, and I hit it to see if you can rate yourself(not that I care)
but I was punished with a half point or one point on the ethical scale or something like that.
So I was just looking if somebody could cheat, and...

No cheating Calnotary, I too just got a D-merit! Give me a
green and I will do the same for you so we can get our point back, okay? Thats how ridiculous I think this is!

Okay Beth, Here ya go!
GOOD
In Richardson, Texas a State Trooper was running radar. He had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting any.
Then he discovered the problem. A 12 year old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign which read "RADAR TRAP
AHEAD!" The officer later found a young accomplice down the road with a sign reading, "TIPS" and a bucket full of money.
(And we used to just sell lemonade!)
BETTER
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in Plano, Texas.
A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40.
The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
BEST
A young woman was pulled over in Austin, Texas for speeding.
As the TX State Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said,
"I bet you are going to sell me a ticket to the Texas State Police Ball."
He replied, "Texas State Troopers don't have balls."
There was a moment of silence while she smiled and he realized what he'd just said.
He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left.
She was laughing too hard to start her car.

Hubby got a speeding ticket about a month ago. The trooper was the biggest guy I'd ever seen. I wonder if Hubby would have asked him about "Balls?" I'll have to share this tonight. LOL! :p

Re: Okay Beth, Here ya go!
We have our choice from Abilene to Eastland, up to Breckenridge, down to Stephenville. Draw a big circle and that's our radius that we will be looking at. We're going to go look at houses as soon as we get an offer on ours.
