    I can't stop!

    I wish I could help and say something really encouraging but I still burn myself. I did today and can't promise I will stop. I haven't actually cut though in 8 months though. I work in a restuarant and burning is too easy to do and get away with. I know that Jesus can help us though.

    Crazy superstitions about Southern people

    Actually, "The Beverly Hillbillies" was from the Ozarks, not the south. The writer was from Missouri and based it on some of his neighbors being hillbillies. I saw the story behind the show on cable before.

    I wouldn't know about the Irish stuff, my relatives came from England and Germany. I watched the movie last night, "The Miracle Worker" about Helen Keller.

    Lost Nations? what happened to the indians?
