Charming, yes. But what about all of their suicide bombers?

During the space of four years, while in college in Indiana, there were several nautral disasters. The first reponders to each were the Amish.
I LOVE the Amish.

I sure wouldn't mind living a life of that kind of peace and quiet. I'd be willing to give up almost any aspect of my life to live like that except the medical care we have available to us in this country. Otherwise, even though I'd miss my FR fix, I could be happy that way.

I visited that area a couple of yrs. ago. They're very hard working and industrious and have a phone booth in the middle of nowhere with a phone that dials out. And when a call is made, the caller has to log it a book so they can be billed properly. Mostly everyone is named Yoder or Miller.

Every time I visit Ohio I make sure to spend at least a couple of days in Amish country. No finer people anywhere. I have often thought of giving up my life behind the keyboard and moving there... though I'd have a hard time making a living if I had to be busting my hump every day like a young man.

You'll never see an Amish boy with a nipple ring. That's why I love them.
