Construction Apprenticeships

If your like lot of people, you have often wondered about getting a job in construction and if the money is as good as they say. You probably even know someone who was related to someone working in construction so they were able to start at the bottom and work their way up because they knew someone. If your wanting to get into the construction business and hope to work YOUR way up to possible manager or foreman one day, why not try one of the apprenticeships that can be found all over the country? There are actual construction training schools spread all through the country that offer internships and apprenticeships. This is a great option. You can work, learn AND get paid.

Not An Eerie Story

This was posted on the Jonathan Brandis boards in response to people who wonder why even though they beleive it, and want it to happen, they can't communicate or get signs from passed loved ones, I think this is a great response.


"Alright, Christelle. Here's one I can help you with on account of I have experience in this area these days. There are signs out there, and people are seeing the signs, or blowing right by them all the time. Here's something not too many people know, or maybe they do, but sometimes they forget. Sometimes signs and spirits come through, and when they do they maybe don't give you what you want. They give you only what you need. For everything else, you can count on God having a reason. Don't wanna offend anyone by kind of sounding like I really do have some kind of "in," so I'll start it out with saying, "I believe." I believe God really does have a plan for each of us, and each of us is here for some really good reason. If you're thinking you've got some doubts, and you're thinking you're losing your faith, try looking at it from this kind of strange point of view. You're faith is being tested, Christelle. Testing it is something everyone and everything that challenges your faith is supposed to do. Holding on to it when they do, that's your job. You're doing a good job, Christelle. I mean, maybe God wanted you to throw that question out about doubt, and it's part of a bigger piece of some really cool puzzle. I mean, that'd be a good thing, dontcha think? Don't let go of that faith of yours, no matter what happens between right now and the time someone comes one day to help you cross into the Light. Lose the doubt, the faith will see you through"

Oh wow..do you remember that movie Now and Then? Well the girl who played Rita Wilson's younger counterpart died of a drug overdose. How sad is that? :( She was 26 years old. Please people, stay off the drugs! I found this out on the Jonathan Brandis message boards. Too many young people, famous or not are dying of drug overdoses and other reasons. It's a sick sad world sometimes.

Eerie Story 8

Taken from WW Messageboards





i've never seen a ghost, but i've heard one.

we lived in a really rural part of west tx for a while- real rought and tumble border country in a really rickety old ranch house. that has a wrap around porch. I loved to go out into the yard (it was about 35 acres) and look for rocks (lots of quartz, sometimes you'd find an arrowhead...)
There was this one spot with rock mounds, which looked to us a lot like stettler type grave sites (we had no history of the property aside form what the previous owner could tell us- he inherited it and propery details are more word of mouth down there then documented). one day i found a beat up pocket watch that had some engraving on it (it is illegeble to the naked eye); I looked it up on the net, and the last year that this model was manufactured was 1865.
A few days later our kitchen sink turned on by itself. we made a joke about the ghost wanting his watch back. several times our blankets came off the bed as if they were being pulled away from us to the direction of our feet; we thought it was our dog at first but she was never in the room when it happened, and it always felt like something in the corner to the front left of our bed was staring at us; really creepy and our bedroom was always freezing, even in the summer. We had a porch light that we would make a point to turn off, and if we got up in the middle of the night and went downstairs, it would be turned on. The creepiest thing was if you were downstairs at night, alone it sounded like someone with a cane was walking on the porch. If you went in to use the bathroom you could hear it get closer and closer and then stop right at where you were. there was a window right behind the toilet and I was always afraid to look our of it, so we covered it with a picture

Daily Eerie Story 7

Ok, so they have not been daily of late. Sorry about that ;)

This one is interesting.

Mary Gene loved her cat skittles. She was 25 and lived alone in a small studio apartment. Skittles was her constant companion. She had had skittles for three years, the same amount of time she had lived in the apartment. One day, she came home from work and found skittles lying cold on the kitchen floor. She had had a heart attack. Mary was devistated.

Fast forward two months. Mary had finally met someone. A handsome, polite young man. She invited him over for dinner. As she began preparing the dinner, her boyfriend sat on the couch. Suddenly she heard him yelp. She came running out.

"What's wrong?" she asked. He held up his arm. It was covered in blood. "Your cat just scratched me!"
