Kudos to this girl. I am glad to see a teen that thinks of family.:clap:

While it is a touching story, one has to wonder how many dates she actually turned down.

Someone PMed me said it would either be you or Joepole that would say that. The thing is her dad was leaving for Iraq and she wanted a special memory for the both of them. As everyone knows he could not come back, But let's all hope he does. She could have been like other teens that thought about boyfriends, partying and staying out all night. But who did she think of.

Like I said, touching story, but I'd like to know how many dates she actually turned down....

Can you ever say anything nice? Why do you always have to say something negative? This is a great story, a touching story, about a girl who could lose her father and you have to go and be a horse's behind AGAIN!

I wonder how many turned YOU down for the prom? Probably all of them or at least the ones that had sense.

:mad!: :mad!: :mad!: :mad!: :mad!:

From the pictures I saw. she looks like a nice enough girl.. I would think she had options.. but chose to take her dad instead. Too bad he'll be in Iraq for her graduation.

LOL, Obviously.... he has issues. ;)

>Someone PMed me said it would either be you or Joepole that would say that.

Nah, I would have said something about her putting out after the dance.

Leave it to you to think that. :mad:

Some guys just gotta be guys I guess. Ladies, at least not all of us are all negative. ;) Some of us actually grow up and become decent men. Now if only we weren't so lonely. :confused:

1. I had a girlfriend in high school
2. We didn't go to prom. What part of my personality makes you think I enjoy playing dress up?

I actually did a google search....care to point us in the direction of those images so I can decide for myself?

This kid goes to prom with her Dad and you say I have issues? That might the dumbest thing I've heard today (and I went to a church today too)

I clicked the link to the story, I know that must be difficult for you.

I think the fact they did what they did, says plenty about their relationship, and her respect for her father, and his impending trip to Iraq.

Not only are you an idiot, you sound pretty heartless too.. but this should come as no shock to anyone around here.

LOL not only do you have issues, you are pathetic. LOL :yes:

I thought that is the reason you put a link on the top page so people with common sense can click and read. I wasn't aware that was hard to do. I'll try to do better.:rolleyes:

I don't know, the dumbest thing I've heard today is you don't know how to click a link.

LOL BADA-BING !! :goodpost2::funnypost2:

Lol! Hey LN, have you been out tossing them back tonight? :D

:beerchug:

Doh.....

Apparently I overlooked the photos when I read the story, and I'll even admit the girl is better looking than I anticipated, still, I'd like to know how many dates she turned down.

You know, there's lot's of good looking girls out there with less than impeccable reputations.

ooops...;.

It really doesn't matter how many dates she turned down, she took the one that was important to her.

This is something her father could not buy and the daughter too. :clap: I have three daughters and to have one of them ask me to be her date well I would say anytime would be great :clap:

I thought you said you couldn't stand hypocrites? But you went to church and played the roll of Christian? You obviously don't have any children our you would GET this prom story!

Does going to a church mean I attended the service and pretended to be a christian?

Or could it mean I helped someone like my mother decorate her classroom for Vacation Bible School?

I'll keep setting them up, honey, as long as you promise to keep diving into them head first.

Yes I did fall for your hook but I still say it is hypocritical to go and help your mother decorate her room for VBS an activity you don't believe in!

He had me going too. It's really interesting how it came out.

He said, "That might the dumbest thing I've heard today (and I went to a church today too)." This comparison implies that something he observed at church was also dumb. If he didn't attend the service, then what was it about the church that was so dumb and why is it related to this issue?

You're more likely to hear something dumb at church because you're more likely to encounter a really dumb person at church than you are at work or at home.

Well, maybe you're not, but I am. Brain probably is, too.

YOu don't have to go to church or work to encounter dumb people. All we have to do is listen to you and Brain.:eek:

Piemaker you pick up on things quick ;)

Way to go Piemaker!!!Put those boys in their place, down at the bottom of the pond, pond scum that they are!!!!:clap: :clap: :clap:

What I "believe" in is giving children something constructive to do with their free time regardless of the educational value. It's the basis of every extracurricular activity from football to karate to 4-H....and of course, helping my Mother when she asks me to do so regardless of the task.

Sooner or later you guys will figure out that people CAN be decent and not christian at the same time.....

You do not have to be a Christian to be a decent man. I think good works and kind words will do wonders for everybody. There is good and bad in everybody and it is CHOICE as to which one will prevail. I am glad to see you help your mom and work to help children Brain :clap:

I agree with both of you! :clap:
