If you don’t mind sharing, was there a moment aside from this one that caused you to change? I guess I’m asking the specific moment you said “now’s the time.” My second question is how did you do it? Sounds like you were lost and a few weeks ago you walked your daughter down the aisle. Pretty cool Ulysses. Merry Christmas.

I actually know a little about this. McGill was arrested and sentenced to hard labor. He managed to escape the chain gang with two other delinquents. After weeks of struggle, where he was almost burned alive in a barn, drugged robbed and turned into the police by 3 women who seduced him and his compadres, escaped again, and infiltrated a KKK gathering to save his black friend from being hanged, he was given a full pardon by the incumbant gubernatorial candidate. Unfortunately, his ex-wife would only remarry him on one condition, and in the process of retrieving her ring he and his friends were recaptured and sentenced to be hanged without trial. Miraculously, a dam upstream broke and flooded the area and saved him. Tragically, he recovered the wrong ring.

All the adventure and misadventure left McGill deciding to clean everything up with this second chance and full pardon. Sadly, since his first wife wouldn't take him back he's been a Man of Constant Sorrow.

Horace is a nice guy, told him i needed my garden tilled once and he brought over a tractor with 100 year old horse manure out of this ancient barn, massive amounts of very old, dry manure

Came home it was tilled perfect, and fertilized

Grew the largest pumpkin in Cumberland county.... twice

Sad story behind what the govt did to him over that treehouse which he let the public come to anytime


Ended up burning it down

It was scary tall and massive

At the top was a circular large room that was a cathedral

Merry Christmas everyone

Well then, I would be forever grumpy also. This tale however seems eerily familiar….. What ever became of his friends?

Jack, you’re a pretty good one on here and I know your post doesn’t apply to my situation. As much of you know, I run a kitchen at an Assisted Living, I worked all week as usual, but as usual this time of year, I’m expected to stay when bad weather happens. That’s okay, I’ve seen it all in almost 12 years there…….until this year. After a full week, I spent two nights and three days there in the worst time I’ve spent there. Not because of having to stay and doing my job this time of year. Hell, two years ago, I came back from Covid to relieve my staff and spent Christmas Eve by myself and pushing to get Christmas dinner out and had to stop every few minutes to take a breather. This year was worse. I filled in for a cook that called in the first morning and got some of breakfast prepared for them before the power went off. It stayed off for almost two hours. Lord help me I had to serve them what I had before it did. The emergency generator kicked, but it doesn’t power the kitchen except lights. It was cold before it got to them and I’m having a hard time with that. Apparently the problem why it stayed off so long was not anything to do with our building, but the local power company. They got the power back up after two hours. That was just the first day. After just a couple hours of sleep, here I go again. My evening shift cook (it was just her and I, besides what work server kids that I had), let me know the walk in temp was going up. Maintenace looked at it and told me it needed Freon and told me he’d take care of it after the holidays and Merry Christmas to us all 😒. As most knows, I’d fight back, but I had hundreds of dollars worth of walk-in cooler that needed to be salvaged in a quick amount of time. My sick cook (I say that because I know, but she did it for me) helped to salvage what we can. Some will be lost and I knew that begin with and I’ll answer for it Tuesday when my boss is in. Just when I thought I could relax at? (Hell, I don’t remember what time I went to my room). One of my servers texted me at 130? in the morning calling out for this morning. I got up at 3:00 a.m. to go to the kitchen to……….couldn’t sleep 😒. I made sure the morning shift cook was there, helped get the lone server on shift get ready. Something didn’t feel right. The Director Of Nursing was the nurse on duty. I found her and she took one look at me and asked immediately what was wrong and what I needed. I told her plus other stuff that the RA’s needed from me earlier in the night (different tl;dr moment for another time). She ordered her staff to fill in so I could leave. I knew I needed to and needed it needed to be taken out of my hands. I absolutely know this is a td;lr moment and most should skip over it. I’m sorry and exhausted but this is my journal.


@Jackcrevol, as I said at the beginning of my long winded rant, it certainly wasn’t directed toward you. Okay, I’ll go back to just reading posts and not post them. Don’t y’all think I’ve posted enough, unless……😒.

TL;DR, hell, just skip over it.

Just know you are appreciated for all that you do. Hope you feel better. Have a merry Christmas.

Surely there are loopholes in the pardon!? Just kidding. Merry Christmas McGill.
