Lance Lewsader - Super Creep

More from Lance Lewsader (Shellie Ross's brother who apparently thinks it's okay that she abandoned her young children, skipped out on child support for over 12 years and was finally arrested because she owed almost 50,000 to her one of her sons - meanwhile she went on to have 3 other kids and lives in a half million dollar home...) who thinks I'm way worse than Shellie for telling Zach Teegardins story (the son she abandoned, see his interview here). Anyway, Lance set up a blog where he posted total untruths about me. It's actually laughable because he believes he's such a detective but he has no clue what he's talking about. 
Lance was posting and tweeting constantly about me, and was stupid enough to mention he was AT WORK while doing it. A quick call to his company and miraculously, the blog was shut down and he made his Twitter private. I'd been advised to take screen shots and print out everything and give copies to the proper authorities so if there was any trouble, there would be records. And the sheer number of creepy comments he left on my blogs about Shellie that showed just what a wack job he is  - maybe instead of attacking me, he should funnel his energy into convincing Shellie to step up to the plate and take responsibility for ALL her children.   Here is just a snippet of his ramblings:

Lance A. Lewsader

Lance A Lewsader works - claims to be Shellie's brother. 

UPDATE: Shellie is still in jail and waiting extradition to Ohio. I'm really hoping Zach and his father get the back child support they are owed and it will be a great Christmas for them.

On Lance - several concerned people have contacted me about his "threats" on his Twitter account @Gdogg007 and the other things he has been saying about me. (A few days after his company was made away that he was tweeting while at work, he made his Twitter account private.)

I appreciate your concern - but it is being handled - I don't respond to him not because  I'm 'afraid' - but because I was advised not to.

For those of you who don't know the story, Lance A. Lewsader claims to be Shellie's brother,( if so, there is yet another secret life Shellie is harboring because no one seems to know anything about her having ANY brothers or sisters) who valiantly tries to defend a mother who abandoned her children and owes 50,000 back child support - this remind me of the sayings:
 Show me who your friends are, and I'll tell you who you are - and - Birds of a feather flock together...

If I should die horribly in a violent accident, please note that Shellie Ross's "brother" posted this on CustomFighters.com - he goes by the name Lance A. Lewsader and the handle: GDogg007 and works at EMC Corporation in Arkansas (as he mentions in his Linkedin profile AND on his Myspace page and on Google Circles)

http://www.customfighters.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52321 (this thread was since removed - but I still have all the screen shots - and I mean ALL of them - too numerous to post here)

From his post, I learned that DIAF - means "Die In A Fire."

In a few of the responses he received, someone called "thaorleanyte" suggested DDOS - Dirt Digging - I had no idea what that meant either, but have since been taught it means "denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a computer resource unavailable to its intended users." Which is a crime. 





And also, just in *case* I do wind up in a horrible accident (or die in a fire) I do have screen shots and copies of what Lance and his  fine upstanding citizens suggested in order to make me 'go away.'

Since it seems Lance can't spell correctly and obviously doesn't comprehend things very well, I'll say this one more time: Shellie was on her cell phone Tweeting when she should have been watching Bryson -that's why he drowned. Then she blamed it on her older son, saying he was supposed to be watching him. Shellie owes back child support - over 50,000 for a son that she abandoned when he was 6 years old, a son that she has completely ignored and not even bothered telling her new husband about. She was arrested because she owes that money. Shellie lives in a half million dollar house (which SHE proudly posted pictures of all over the internet) - yet still refuses to pay her back child support.


 Shellie Ross's "brother" Lance A. Lewsader (GDogg007) wrote this on CustomFighters.com


"So this chick named Laura Freed in New Jersey can DIAF. She has made it her personal crusade to harass my older sister and make sure her personal life is made as public as humanly possible. Even has gone so far as to post up pictures of her home and the inside of her home. (Be careful when ya list your home if ya ever do. Those pictures don't go away.)

The reason this bitch has done this? Because 2 years ago my nephew drowned in a pool. She was on twitter after it happened asking for family and friends to pray for Bryson. (I see nothing wrong with that.) However this bitch went on Nancy Grace (that bitch can DIAF too) and blasted my sister as irresponsible.

Long long story short Laura Free is a useless wart on the ass of society who needs to die horribly in a violent accident."

Funniest Police Blotter Stories EVER! From Flathhead Valley Montana.

Sometimes we dream about moving to a place where there isn't a murder every night and you don't have to worry about Lethal Flash Mobs attacking you in the middle of the day.

I wouldn't mind living in a place where crimes like these occur:

Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles! Best Christmas Cookie EVER!!!

One of the BEST CHRISTMAS COOKIES EVER!!!

Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles!

You can make these without using the mint and just do regular chocolate chip also.


2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract
1/3 cup milk or vanilla soy milk
1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips (OR mini mint chocolate chips)
14 oz white chocolate chips
3/4 cup crushed candy canes
DIRECTIONS:
Beat butter and sugars and in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add milk vanilla, peppermint. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt and mix on low speed (or by hand) until incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips.
Cover and chill dough for 1 hour.
When dough is firm enough to handle form dough into 1" balls (I use a mini cookie scooper) and arrange on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Place sheets in freezer and let chill for 30 minutes.
Melt white chocolate in microwave. Place in bowl and heat for 1 minute 30 seconds, stopping after 60 seconds to stir. After time is up, stir some more until the whole thing is melted.  Using teaspoons , dip cookie balls into candy coating to cover and return to waxed paper-lined baking sheets sprinkle with crushed peppermint candies.  Chill until set. Store, chilled, in an airtight container for up to 1 week. 
These are so fantastic!
I also made a batch using Andes Peppermint Crunch (which I found in Walmart). Instead of the white chocolate, I melted down the Andes Peppermint Crunch and used that. Has that distinctive Andes Candy taste and the coating was a festive Christmas pink! SO GOOD!
