Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

I can't imagine any transaction that ever cried out louder for buyer's remorse. Now that I've actually got check in hand I'll be able to contemplate something more than my navel. You can trust me on this much -- once I decide, I'll let you all know. nod

It's terrific that you do this...I should be so lucky to have a place like that to go to when I'm old and need friends and company!

With the aging population, there should be more and more facilities available for seniors. The down side, however, is the economy. Parks & Recreation was going to close down one of their centers because they couldn't afford the upkeep due to budget cuts. One of the Jewish groups we work with just took it over and will even expand it. But the city can't manage to find the money so it's going to be up to private organizations to help out. I know that churches are expanding their outreach to seniors but getting donations is harder these days. At least when I'm old and infirm, I'll have an "in" with one Center and its social workers. See....I'm not as altruistic as you thought. Wink

Quote from shesays :
Actually, it's not awesome of me. I wouldn't do it if I didn't enjoy it. But the funniest part of his whole thing is how shocked new employees and clients are when they find out I'm not Jewish.

At least 50% of our clients are Holocaust survivors and the majority of our other clients are Jewish. I mean, the Center is in the largest Jewish area in Los Angeles, so that's to be expected. Most of the social workers in the building are also Jewish because they speak Yiddish and Russian and Polish, etc. Even after two years volunteering there, I'll still meet clients who ask if my parents were survivors or which temple I belong to, those sorts of questions. I just tell them up front that I'm not Jewish and they're shocked. They see me at the Center 5 days a week, 6 hours a day, and it makes no sense to them.

But they're funny about it and decide that if I want to be the craft lady and the popcorn lady (which I make for the days we show movies) and the computer lady (because I help out in the lab) and the flyer and calendar lady (I do the graphics for special events and the monthly calendar of events) and whatever else they know me for, then hey, that's fine with them. They just don't understand it.

I just do it because I enjoy it, I love the people I "work" with, and I get to do all sorts of different things. Plus, and this is important to my sister, it keeps me off the streets and out of trouble. bounce
Um not to be argumentitive or anything but YES IT IS AWESOME OF YOUlaugh out loud I understanfd you enjoy it, but I'm sure there are plenty of other things you enjoy too. I think its cool that you do it and your not Jewish. Even more AWESOME of you. And I agree with your Sis, Anything you enjoy and keeps you out of trouble is a good thing, plus it helps them as well. so YES hun, you are AWESOME Stick Out Tongue (I have yet to find ANYTHING that keeps me out of trouble)LMAO
