One of our others is a boring sounding consultant in Canada, but another is a horse breeder who has breed and raised (I kid you not) a stallion named English Pleasure.

To my horror, this came up first:<BR/><BR/>When Vey reached the bottom step of the foyer, swinging the vinyl beach bag she had packed, two men jumped out at her. They were both black, and for a split-second the thought crossed her mind, absurdly, that the black engineer who lived in the downstairs apartment was playing some kind of joke on her. But these men, whom after a moment she recognized as the two she'd seen on the street, were yelling and screaming at her -- ''I'm going to shoot you, I'm going to kill you,'' and something, too, about her car. Vey sat down on the ground with her arms over her head and tried to make herself very small and very quiet and as calm as she could be, so that she wouldn't, as she put it, ''challenge'' the angrier of the two men, the one with the gun. And then the shorter, less agitated one, the one whom she would later identify as Terrell Yarbrough, did something odd. He put himself between her and the man with the gun. ''Don't shoot her,'' he said.<BR/><BR/>They had already murdered someone, but just stole Barbara Vey's car.<BR/><BR/>I was totally creeped out. But, now over a year later, that story doesn't come up until about 4 pages into Google.<BR/><BR/>I still feel weird when I read it.Barbara Veyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378225946454575594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-17798854731879509652008-09-30T14:18:00.000-05:002008-09-30T14:18:00.000-05:00There are no other me's if you spell it the same w...There are no other me's if you spell it the same way - jeanne sheats but there is jeanne sheets and it's a name brand for satin sheets (we use to tell our girls that's what we really were going to name them haha) and there was a jeanne cheats that sells codes for gaming cheats lol.
