I suppose it is if you're the type of magnet that's attracted to turmoil. I don't seem to have any problems. I'm sure posts like yours do a lot to help matters though. (rolls eyes)

I'm depressed. My 18 year old son just found one of his friends dead out in the desert. He and the police won't tell me where they are. they're waiting for the coroner to get there, then I can talk to my son.

I'll report back as I hear.

noncom, like you I also have no problem with sarge's posts since I have him on ignore. Also, I make no bones that I enjoy provoking him. I imagine he's probably gotten past responding to me, but even if he hasn't, my provocation is one post and his reply, if there is one, is one post, and its over and done.

My point though was that the Username Sarge causes endless posts back and forth from people that do respond to him that accomplishes nothing but thread eruption/disruption. I have him on ignore yet I still see most of his posts quoted in reply posts.

Sounds SOP to me. There are a lot of steps to investigating a death. The police generally do not want extra people getting onto the scene. I can imagine how nerve wracking that can be.

In the heat of battle, they never admit this. Ever so often though, when things are calmed down, they admit it. The claims that I'm paranoid, or doing the provoking, or making something out of nothing, ... all false. It would be a much nicer place if people would just admit they love to provoke. Somehow I'm the bad guy for pointing it out each time and asking for it to stop. What are you talking about Sarge? I'm not provoking anything, you are! Yeah, ... right. With the very interesting emails going around out of Staten Island and the threats of deadly violence on the ka-pow thread, you'd think more than one person would REALLY want it to stop and speak up. You'd think.

Take note friends ... Nigal is in on it as well, but certainly tries to play the innocent good guy in all of this. He's not serious about putting an end to this either obviously.

Eventually, the whole truth comes out.

Take all your drugs, meds, rants, fuego and half baked theories about the truth about Depression and leave this thread. COME BACK WHEN YOU'RE DEPRESSED.

When you need to do some yammering, whining, pining and wailing, your welcome here. Make yourself comfy, relax, take a hanky, blow your nose and just let go. Let it all out. This is the right place for it.

More compassion, PLEASE - not drugs.

Dude, you just described, like, 98% of TT threads. LOL!

I didn't know this was a whining thread only. I thought people were looking for real answers and help. My bad.

Good morning, what a night. Everyone is home and tired. Still details are unknown, but an 18 year old friend of my son and a 16 year old friend of my daughter have been shot to death in an old military bunker in the desert near Barstow, Ca.

I thank you all for your concern. Last night, I was without car and helpless to find any info on exactly what happened and the frustration of being alone and helpless is not me.

Sorry about that uncliff. What a living nightmare. I'll be praying for everyone involved.

On an unrelated note, It's cool to see you can make coherent, grammatically correct sentences when you want to. Is it really you? LOL

HELENDALE — Two teenagers were found dead with gunshot wounds, the apparent victims of a double homicide, officials said Sunday.

The teens are believed to have been at a party at an abandoned military installation about a mile and a half off Highway 58, said Arden Wiltshire, spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.

Around 4 a.m. Saturday the party broke up, and one witness said that was the last time he saw the victims, an 18-year-old boy and a 16-year-old girl, Wiltshire said. The names of the victims were not released as of 1 p.m. Sunday.

Later that day the same boy recieved a call from one of the victim’s parents saying that the teen never returned home. The friend then went back to the location, where he discovered the
bodies of his friends, officials said.

“It sounds like — I don’t know how frequently — but that they do have parties or gatherings out there,” Wiltshire said. “It is a large abandoned bunker, it sounds almost like a big airplane hangar from the way it was described.”

Homicide detectives were called to the location and have been investigating for nearly 24 hours, and are asking for the public’s assistance in locating suspects.

Investigators ask if anyone has any information about this crime to contact either Detective Rob Alexander or Sergeant Frank Montanez at (909) 387-3589.

Callers can also contact the WeTip Hotline at (800) 78-CRIME or leave information on the WeTip Web site at www.wetip.com.

Check back for more information as it becomes available.

gack.... Did your son go back alone? Did you know that he had gone back to check and the reason for his going back.

That is a terrible shock for both of you.

My son and his best friend (who was not at the party that night) went together in my truck (muddy roads). They first found the victim's truck unlocked and his shoes under the lowered tail gate. They got a flashlight and went into the bunker where they found the body. They called 911 and the police soon arrived.

it sounds uncliff as if you are "Da" to many more children than your own. it's a good thing that your home has been chosen as safe base. that's how it is here at our home. as "Ma & Da" to who knows how many now, we often wake up to our kid's friends on the couch and/or floor.

You never know who you are blessing.

I'm nobody! Who are you?
~Emily Dickinson

I'm not Joseph, not gojo, and certainly not Joe! And it's high time I admit that to myself.

As Joe, I was trying to portray myself as someone I'm not. Noper - I'm just little 'ol me... always have been, and always will be. I was blessed with a sad spirit that has deep feelings for everyone and everything, so I remain sad most of my days - that's all there is to it. Why deny it? Why try to mold it into something that can be held, and thus thrown out? It can never be held, much less cast away, so why not acknowledge it - accept it. Celebrate it!

I'm nobody,
And somebody.

I'm Joey! Who are you?

This morning only two, one locked his keys in his car. Sat and Sun are the services for the two victims, so, we'll expect the visitors to taper off and a more normal home life to follow. The scars will be deep, but time and some hard work will move them aside.
Pam, we've always been the 'go to sanctuary' and my wife and I are atheist. Thanks again for all your concerns .
