She has been released from her needless pain. This is the work of God, all knowing. I saw it this morning on the Joel Olsteen show.

C'mon, people...in both of these cases, somebody saw something. Speak up. Walter, we wish you luck.

My Red 2003 F250 4x4 FX4 was stolen today, Sunday 1/22/12, at the Jason's Deli restaurant on I-10 at Wurzbach between 12:05 pm and 12:20 PM. If anyone saw anything or knows where this truck is please call the police department. I just bought the truck and it still had the paper dealer tags on it. I was going to use the truck to start a new business and I invested everything I had into it and I am left without the truck and all my tools. Yes, it was locked. Yes, I have the keys. Thank you for any one's help. The police have the report on file, but any help would be great. Thank you.
