  Exactly.

K>Exactly.. people should'nt be taunted for running the BBS the way they want,

  Besides the BBS and ham radio, I square dance. So, I have 3 hobbies to
keep me busy. Now, if there are storms outside, I just shut things off,
and go take a nap. However, it isn't for beauty's sake...I gave that up
long ago -- and no comments from the peanut gallery!! 

K>I'm afraid of height too, the coasters (even some of the highest) dont bother

  I don't even like getting on a stepstool to change the battery in the
smoke detector.

  But, that reminds me of a cute joke...

  This young couple was wanted to be married in this church. The pastor
said "I'll marry you, but you must not have sex until after you're
married". The couple agreed, and said they'd be back in 3 weeks for the
wedding.

  Well, a couple of days beforehand, when they returned, they sadly had
to admit that they didn't keep their promise. The preacher asked what
happened, and the young man confessed.

  "My wife got up on the ladder to change the light bulbs, and I was
holding the ladder steady. But, I looked up under her dress, was bitten
with lustful passion, and made love to her right then, and there".

  The preacher said "Well, I'm sorry...I can't marry you two".

  To which the young man replied "I can't say that I blame you. The
folks at Home Depot weren't happy about it, either!!".
