You want to bury the hatchet?
Bury it so far deep they'll be pirating the copyright in Beijing come morning?

Can you hold onto a grudge forever?

I can't. It isn't good for the heart or spirit.

It drains the body too.

*tosses the first mound of dirt into the hole*

4. Ahh yes, I remember it well
the tragic story of a teenage boy with a semi-transparent hatchet for a right muttonchop, and a miniature timberwolf in a space helmet caught in his hair being chased by an invisible plane.

5. They really pimped that Newberry Award, didn't they.
What's a boy to do with wolves and hatchets on the brain?

6. He reflected the sun off the award to start a fire
The book itself is a survival kit. If you draw an arrow on it and point it north it's a compass too.

11. I like how the cover served as a guide for identifying wolves.
I was surprised to find out they don't generally moved around with their necks in that position.

Frightening fact: that book has three (3) sequels.

The only thing I remember about "Hatchet" was that somehow the teacher followed up with "Spirit Quest." Which was kind of lame.

Grudges are way too fucking heavy to carry around, anyway. They usually end up hurting you more than they hurt the object of your grudge.

Peace to you, bro. :toast:

We all have this orgy of Road House quote threads every time it is on. We have an unhealthy fixation with that flick. DUers ProfessorGAC and flamingyouth also have an unhealthy fascination with it.

But I can't vent here. Grrrr! Student papers....grrr! No citations...no such thing as global warming...three of the first five I read are plagiarized....GRRRR!

OK, now that that's outta my system...

Any hatchet that needed to buried between you and me was buried a LONG time ago.

54. We're looking at eloping, maybe to the Catalina Islands
Or maybe Vegas if the mood strikes us, lol.

The rings will be ready next month. Nini's soon-to-be diamonds, reset on a new band, once belonged to my late grandmother (my mother's mother), and my band was her father's - my great-grandfather, a Polish immigrant who worked as a coal miner in Wyoming. I will wear it with love and pride. :D

We'll have one helluva party afterward. Get Teena to DJ, perhaps. :toast:

Well, I can dance, too. :cry: Doesn't that count for anything?

Don't worry--I'm such a homebody that I wouldn't even attend my own brother's wedding, if it involved a plane trip. (well, maybe for him.) :D

70. I'm curious ... to whom are you directing this?
A lot of posts on this thread, and you've only responded to people with whom you seem to have no issues. I don't get it. What am I missing?

This symbolic burying of the hatchet could be a really good thing, if it is indeed sincere.

Who is the target of this grudge of yours, and is the hatchet buried now?
