    I think her idea of hell differs greatly from my idea of hell. Talk to someone living in a cardboard box in Haiti.

    You got that right. A friend of mine runs a farm for street children in Kitale, Kenya

    [QUOTE="semi" retired;4489308]I feel bad for her, but I'm an over emotional kind of guy. The fact she doesn't talk with her parents is a red flag, issues upon issues. I couldn't imagine not talking to my daughter. Some of the comments are pretty harsh, I think she's trying, but is putting too much effort into something that probably isn't there. It seems she doesn't have any real ties there, so she should get out, and try again in a more woman friendly environment. I doubt ND is that place. Seems like a good kid.[/QUOTE]
    I have to agree, she made a comment that she making less there than in Cali. and no benefits, So why is she staying there? Maybe because she doesn't have a CDL? she driving a pick up pulling a goose neck trailer, But there are companies that will trainer her, if that is what she needs

    I know. Like I say, she seems like a good kid, but anytime someone posts a video on YouTube, with music and drama, it's usually a "poor me" attitude.

    I was on the USS Inchon during "Operation Support Democracy" off of Haiti in 1995. They pictures that the helo pilots and crew were bringing back to the ship were sad to look at.
