I heard it's not uncommon for them to send women out to the cities to live for a while (or bar/club pickups, but that may just be rumor/shit you hear on TV) - sole purpose to bring back dudes to their communities.

I think you are mixing up an episode of the X-files with reality.

"Among the changes the researchers predict: Amish will buy up land vacated by farmers in rural areas close to community services, but the availability of farmland might not keep pace with population growth. This means many Amish men will likely look for nonfarm jobs such as woodworking and construction trades, which could affect land prices and potentially enhance local economies through the establishment of business startups.

The census restricts the count to Amish among the “Old Orders,” those who maintain a horse-and-buggy lifestyle and avoid or limit their use of most modern technologies."

Very contradictory.

They wont be looking for city jobs or technological jobs. Its all part of the same game and perhaps those truly portrayed at the games. It is a slow gradual decent to the stone age as china again becomes Atlantis retaining technology and polluting the planet, while proclaiming themselves to be gods.

An amish girl can pick me up chuckle

I've been trying to figure out an escape from society anyway. But I will miss using computers, but that's about all. Not so fond of the mentality or personality of the average person living in the cities. Actually I can live my whole life without knowing any of them.

So they had a Amish Auction north of here in Wisconsin. So in their barn they would take the scrap wood and find little places in the rafters where it would fit and use the scrap lumber to brace their roof. The Amish are fantastic with wood.

I LOVE the Amish!

Quite honestly, If there was a group ANYWHERE around me, I would love to join them.

To me. Their lifestyle is exactly the type of lifestyle we are meant to live.

I will never forget how amazed I was at how they handled the situation of the school shooting tragedy. The fact that they offered forgiveness to the man who did it, was inspiring.

And when TSHTF, there will be no one else more prepared.

They wouldn't know or care what an iPhone was. They know the meaning of hard work, of community, of selfless service.

No computers, no newspapers, no tv, no movies, no internet. They keep it real like few people in the west do.

(I know it was a joke Galaxy! )

Any1 that Love Lemurs got my vote.

They only live the way Americans used to live. We're the ones that changed.
