View Full Version : A Little about me Timberwolve81 01-02-2002, 12:10 PM Hey everyone. I'm 20 years old and live right in the middle of lancaster county. And no I'm not amish. I have a 91 GMC Sierra. I have some alright mods on it now, but as son as I get outta college and start earning some bread it will be a much better machine. anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully i can be of help to the forum. 1badgmc 01-02-2002, 02:38 PM Nice to meet ya! I bet you have fun scaring the horses and buggies! :D:D:D I know I would. j/k I've driven in Indiana Amish country up around where my grandparents live. Definitely an odd experience for us Texans. CKTA 01-02-2002, 04:45 PM Welcome!:D Timberwolve81 01-02-2002, 10:27 PM lol, scaring the horses is pretty fun, and they don't really appreciate it when you smoke your tires off on the day of rest (sunday) The_Law 01-02-2002, 11:09 PM Welcome to the board!

I may have to try that one on my next visit to Indiana Amish country. :D:D Timberwolve81 01-03-2002, 07:27 PM The amish, well where do I start. I really don't like the a**holes. I think they are one of the most inconsiderate people on the earth. They basic think if you aren't amish, your going straight to hell. Anyway my favorite game to play with them is (call me a dick,but) to see how close I can get their buggy (that's only when they aren't on the berm of the road.) Anyway, that's my thoughts on the amish. lol 1badgmc 01-04-2002, 07:18 AM Originally posted by Timberwolve81 The amish, well where do I start. I really don't like the a**holes.

Anyway, that's my thoughts on the amish. lol Another problem with the Amish is that their horses tear the sh!t out of the roads! I think those suckers should have to pay extra highway usage taxes over us humans! :D Timberwolve81 01-05-2002, 11:52 PM no kidding, that's the first thing they do when a road gets paved. they all drive thiers buggies on it the next sunday when they go to church. the a$$holes don't even pay a road tax. 454ss 01-06-2002, 04:41 AM I drove thru Amish country a few times........very weird experience for sure, at least you know they can't see what you wrote about them.:D Don454SS 01-12-2002, 12:29 PM I was raised in Ohio in Amish county. I just wanted to say that from my experience they are some of the finest people I have ever met. They live and work together well with us 'english' and my farmer relatives respect them. They tend to keep to themselves unless they know you. That is just their way of living as strangers I our modern world. Most people don't understand them and their seemingly backward and simply style of living. WHen I was a kid I stayed with an Amish family for a summer. Believe me it's a different world. It's been over twenty years since I lived there, but when I go back to visit my old Amish friends, they are the most humble and gracious hosts. They would do anything for me and my family. Heck, even for the ones that don't know me, if I mention my grandfather's name and the location of his farm (now owned by Amish), they immediately warm up and treat me like I was family. I can still go back and hunt on my grandfather's former land anytime I want. My cousin lives there and is a farm animal vet. He does business with them and tells me that they always pay their bills and are good to work with. Unfortunately he can't say the same for his 'english' clients. I just want to provide some balance to this discussion by expressing my opinion. Timberwolve81 01-15-2002, 02:49 PM I lived in lancaster county for almost 20 years. Most of the amish there are total @ssholes. Maybe ohio amish are different. HP409ss 01-15-2002, 03:16 PM Welcome to the site. HP409ss Dropped 01-22-2002, 12:38 AM Hmm, sorry no Amish stories.
