Spears released?!
Britney Spears was released from the psych hospital today. And already she is driving with 20-30 cars of paparazzi tailing her and driving recklessly. Some innocent person is going to be seriously injured if she continues to put them in this situation knowing the paps will follow her. And on another note, what kind of doctor let her go in her condition? Did someone give him a box of Cracker Jacks and he happened to pull out a degree enabling him to be a doctor???? Did he just say, Hey! Maybe I will let Britney go today when she hasn't even had enough treatment to be sane! I am SO sick and tired of HER putting people in danger. The paparazzi are going to take pictures and follow people no matter what. BUT Britney is aimlessly driving around, taking pictures of the paps from her car, and she checked into another hotel. Honestly, WHY can't the city of LA do something about her??
I can't necessarily say she should be released
but these people were basically brainwashed by Manson and definitely full of drugs.
Did she show compassion for Sharon Tate and her unborn child, no, but does that mean others can't show compassion. Is a lifetime or 37 years enough, not necessarily, but it is true that California is paying mega-bucks for her care. If she can't even set up what is her life going to be at home?
This is not an open and shut case. There are many ways to look at it, and I hope the judge making the ruling considers each and every avenue.
The family has released a statement saying she died.
So sad.
I think that was a terrible terrible thing, but
this is quite different. That was an adult who deliberately wanted to hurt this child, not to the point of death I would hope, but did take pleasure in knowing this would hurt a young teen. I personally feel there should definitely be some severe consequences for that. Just like if this were my child that made the reference to a teacher like this, I would defintely punish him.
Terrible terrible loss
I'm in shock. What a horrible loss for all of us. He was the voice of reason and spoke it like it was. My heart goes out to his family and friends. You can hear how everyone on the news is in shock. The news will never be the same without him.
Is it just me or does she look really terrible?
Poor thing, she's a mess. I didn't catch the wedding, did she at least clean up nice? lol
Wow! That's terrible.
He only gave me enough for about 2 weeks, if that, with no refills. He is really into the natural things as well and suggested a supplement - can't think of it now because I was next thing to a basket case in his office - to take after I get over the initial hurdle. I don't like to take pills, so am only taking 1/2 a tab q.12 and it seems to be helping.
Very sorry, that is just terrible........
and sounds like stories books and movies are made of, almost difficult to believe one person can endure so much. God bless you.
That's just terrible!
I'm so sorry you had that experience, especially at a time like that! It's uncalled for and absolutely sickening how some people will push their beliefs onto others at all costs!
Let me tell you, I don't believe in god at all. I'm OK with others believing, but that's not for me. I have made it clear to my husband and all my family members that when I die I DO NOT want any type of religion in my funeral, no bible verses, no mention of the word god, none of it! It's kind of a family joke now that if they do that to me after I die at my own funeral knowing how I feel about religion that I will come back and haunt them, LOL.
I have no problems with anyone pretty much or any person based on their religion UNTIL they start preaching at me, trying to save me, blessing me, what have you. I just wish they could have the same respect for me that I do for them.
Again, sorry about what happened to you. That kind of thing really bothers me.
I am so terrible at this that
for HIS birthday (yesterday), he asked for and received a Magellan Maestro 4000 GPS portable navigational system. It can move from car to car, but will mostly reside in MINE so I will stop calling him to help me when I'm lost. I usually get lost during the day since I would NEVER go anywhere new at NIGHT by myself.
How humiliating, LOL.
That is terrible!. . sm
I had colitis for several years. I would have terrible flare ups, and sometimes after lunch I would have to leave the room frequently to use the restroom. I tried really hard to get my work done and it wasn't every day that this happened. I found out that one of the other ladies I worked with would put her hand in the air and would put her fingers up indicating the number of times I went to the bathroom. So, if I was on my 4th bathroom break, she would hold up 4 fingers. She never looked up from what she was doing but would stick her hand up. I would only be gone for a couple of minutes at a time. Sometimes, she would page me over the intercom to return to work when she knew I was in the bathroom. Luckily, my good friend told me what she was doing. I was so humiliated. I put in my 2-weeks notice and quit. Some people are just mean!
That is terrible.
I come from a family where there are a few members that leave a lot to be desired. Usually the person on the other end of the conversations receives hurtful comments such as yours.
My mom puts up with it but I don't. I do not have a large family and I understand all too well how precious family and relationships are...however, I do not feel this adds anything positive to my life and have chosen not to participate in conversations with these people. It has gotten so bad that they do not even show up to family events (even for their own children and grandchildren) because everyone else is "wrong" but them.
I think it is a wise decision to just avoid them for a while. It's very sad but your husband will be better off without more hurtful comments eating away at an already difficult relationship and situation.
Terrible...sm
I wonder if he hit his head when having a seizure or what? I guess we'll know more after the autopsy. Poor child.
yes it would be terrible....
that's why I worry. If I move, I want to do it before my son starts school, so I have until early August, so I worry, but by then it will be 3 full months (he's been missing since mid April), so I suppose it would be "safe" to move then....sigh...
thank you!
I think it's terrible - sm
I think they're both acting like spoiled brats but I never really followed the show. Was marriage counseling every suggested or tried? Those poor kids. Their parents' dirty laundry is going to be broadcasted everywhere, on You Tube, etc. when they're old enough for the teezing to begin and it will.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll get down off my high horse and go back to more serious issues - you know, Iran, the economy, etc.
Reality TV - was it invented by Stephen King? He wrote "Running Man" and used people as the players with other people chasing them around and killing them in a maze.
I honestly don't watch much reality TV. They're grasping so far with ideas for new reality shows and IMO, they're getting silly but that's just me. I couldn't stand to have anyone filming me constantly, though I have yearned for Cesar Milan to come over and get my rescue pug under control. ;-)
My husband has this and has terrible
leg pain with it that flares up off and on. He found relief with a supplement on line named Activive, it really helped his leg pain. He ran out of it recently and his leg pain returned so he quickly ordered more. He had tried everything from pain medicine to even an antidepressant that rheumatologist said would help the pain but caused him to have a panic attack. God bless you, this may be something for you to look into.
I am terrible about no pre-planning
I often go to the grocery store 3 or 4 times a week. I love to watch the cooking channel when I have time. Robin Miller has a show that usually shows how to cook a couple of times a week and take the leftovers and use for another meal. She now has out a cookbook so that might be a great place to start.
This is going to sound terrible
but my dad used to tell us if he caught us flipping the bird at anyone he would chop our middle fingers off. Of course he wasn't serious and I was the only one gullible enough to believe it.
Also I remember my grandma telling me when I was really young that kids that bite have to have all their teeth pulled out. God, it sounds like I had a horribly sadistic family but they really werent! LOL
I also remember being told if we swallowed watermelon seeds they could grow in our stomachs.
That was a terrible thing for him to say
Good riddence to him!
I know a single woman that had the same exact thing happen to her a couple of times but her picture was an older one.
Unfortunately this seems to be the new man mentality, no matter what the man looks like, the woman has to look a certain way. Of course not all men but many nowadays.
And we can thank the media for that and movies like Shallow Hal. All the diet and exercise infomercials. Makeovers. Plastic surgery shows. Veneers. Nose jobs. Boob jobs. Liposuction. Hair extensions. Society has made it pretty clear that being imperfect is now unacceptable, but usually only if you are a woman! Of course women still believe nobody is perfect but men feel that it is now becoming possible.
If you look at any very wealthy man today you can bet the wife has had it all done, probably at the coaxing of her husband.
I am sure there are still some good men out there and you will find the right one. Or live you life and enjoy it without one. I know a few single women who say they would never again want a man because their lives are so fullfilling and happy without one and so why ruin a good thing.
All the best to you.
Terrible PMS - perimenopause? anyone else? sm
I have always had some PMS but for the last six months or so it is awful! I physically feel like I am in danger for a full day before my period. I mean my mind knows I am not, but my body is freaking out, heart palpitations, and that tense feeling in your chest like you would have if someone was chasing you or something! Has anyone else had PMS this bad and if so did you find a cure?? Thanks!
OMG!!!! How terrible! I can not imagine...sm
how upset you must be. I wonder what on earth happened to him? That would drive me nuts! Only 2 years old! I am so sorry!!
this is terrible, I do not think that a woman could do this..nm
nm
Terrible! Unbelieveable!
Frightening! I don't have enough adjectives for this! How can we ignore our own citizens in need and yet justify some of the astronomical funding for stupid government programs going on? I wish I could do more for you than just sympathize!
That is terrible, makes the good ones look bad:-)...
I remember when the Chicago Bulls basketball team won the championship years ago, and in downtown Chicago they were turning cars over, setting things on fire, pretty scary. I'm happy to be in an outside suburb where it's not that crazy. It's just not that big of a deal, ya know?
Anxiety is a terrible thing.
Xanax works for me. I suffered too long with out. Only can take half the dose, but I feel more focused. I don't feel I need it every day. Anxiety is a real disorder and does not always coincide with depression. Like Hayseed says it can come with a traumatic insult of sickness on one's self, i.e., heart attack.
This is terrible but I have never heard of Inwood.
I am as I said just across the state line from WV, less than an hour from Tennessee and Kentucky, and about an hour and a half from North Carolina. The finally caught the suspects in Abingdon, VA on Sunday morning. My DD was incredibley impressed with the principal and the school and how he was constantly outside patrolling. (I did ask her how she knew since all blinds were supposed to be closed....didn't get much of an answer) I would prefer he not have put himself in such immediate danger but that is the kind of person he is. His son and my son are very close so we know him rather well and I am not suprised. Everything was back to normal here yesterday. I wouldn't mind talking with your friend. Would like to know what Inwood is near.
Terrible song choice
Even though Jordin sang it extremely well, I thought the song was awful. It reminded me of last year's Do You Make Me Proud. I think most of the songs that they chose for "the song" is more orientated towards women. JMO. You're right a different song for each of them would have been better or at least a song that is more upbeat.
I've had a terrible time with
vets also. I don't know if some of them are just bad at diagnosing efficiently, or if my efforts to help them out annoy them so much their judgment is clouded.
I just detected enlarge lymph nodes in my 8-year-old Sasha, which must have been Thursday evening or Friday, and it took me Tuesday evening to get up the courage to get a vet to check her. I ended up going to Banfield because I just couldn't bear to take her to the places where I struggled to get good diagnoses and treatment for my other terminal dogs. Sasha had seen this vet before anyway, since he had stitched her ear while we were away on vacation.
I was careful to just use terms like "lumps" with the staff and vet though, so as not to annoy anybody. And I asked the vet to please tell me those were just huge chewing muscles under her jaw.
Nope. Lymphoma. He took an aspiration bx, but now that we know, we are noticing more and more bad signs, like she is kind of wheezing when she breathes. And the more places we check, the more lumps we find. But she still wants to play growly bump with us, and can briefly return play with Cedric. When I get down on the floor with her, she looks in my eyes and smiles like I'm the greatest person on earth.
Cancer sucks.
I'm terrible at guessing sizes, myself...sm
I know it seems impersonal to a lot of people, but if you can't figure out her size, how about a gift certificate? I always ended up taking clothes back whenever I got them for Xmas...and I learned to appreciate the gift certificates, that way I could pick out what I really wanted myself....just a thought, though.....
Terrible, but my husband loves it...
And it looks pretty nasty, too!
I cut up a bunch of red potatoes (skin on) to fill the crock pot about 3/4 full, along with one large onion. Then cut up 1# of bacon and 1# of whatever sausage sounds good that day--I prefer spicy italian. Add a little water and cook on low all day. About an hour before dinner time, I take all of the grease off the top of it and get rid of it with a ladle--add 1 pint half and half--salt and pepper to taste. Sometimes I add corn, too. Like I said, it is like trying to cause a massive coronary, but great when it is really cold out!
the terrible things that happen
I got a phone call this a.m. for a prayer request. A young man that is on my nephew's ball team and his girlfriend were coming home last night from a ball game.. He maybe fell asleep and they hit a tree. They have flown them to Evansville and he is on life support, they say he has a bruised heart. He has never come to at all.. His name is Mikey, his girlfriend, Lindsay has a messed up spleen, tear in her liver & maybe broken ribs, they said her back was broke. my sil & her husband went to the hospital today, so will find out for sure when they get back or call..but it's terrible the things that are happening all around.
No, I'm sorry. That is beyond ridiculous to have
your children living with someone you hate and hates you so that they can be near a football coach? And then to have to ask advice for how to handle it that you each hate each other? This is her KID, for Lord's sake! She has him living with someone who hates her over a coach? Sorry, but situations like this are only contributing to the delinquency of this world. That is just plain shameful, and I will NOT apologize for thinking so.
Think it is ridiculous for all of this
graduation for small children, pomp and circumstance, proms next or are they doing those already at this age also? Why not make an overall speech to the individual class about how much all appreciated instead of handing out "rewards." That is why the kids getting out of control, it starts really early, don’t want to leave anyone out and it just escalates from there on.
This is ridiculous!
I knew the gas prices were going up, up,up but I have just checked a hotel/airplane package from my city to Las Vegas for 4 days and on Delta today it was $4,545.81! Yes, I am in the US. I do not know whether to book today or wait until these prices go down!! Anyone else want to join me for that price??
This is ridiculous
http://helpmybabylive.com
This couple is looking for $50,000 to not abort their child...talk about a scam.
Well I think it's ridiculous!
Come on now, they've been together for what, 24 hours, and he's madly in love...engaged! Please... just last week he was popping pills and booze, mourning his poor dead wife. Now he's all snuggled up to Donna, who by the way, looks just freaky to me...I think it's really just d*u*m*b...oh, but it is a soap, right?
ridiculous
I don't know what is wrong with today's kids. I don't know if they are not being taught right from wrong at home or what it is, but it is getting to the point that I don't even want my kids going to school and being exposed to these kinds of people! By no means am I a teacher, and I do understand that one day they will have to go to school, but there is no call for this. And on the "sex offender", it doesn't seem to me that he was a legal adult, and an age gap of 3 years is not all that much. I heard on the radio here about how a teenager in high school was slapped with sex offender because he smacked a girl's butt at school. THAT ticked me off. They made the sex offender registry for a reason, not for little high school kids and their parents to abuse.
Seems ridiculous to me
That anyone would think that way. If someone has a stable relationship then "dancing" should have no impact on it. It's a harmless show for goodness sake that takes a lot of hard work. I do know that, I think it was the year before last, (I don't watch religiously)Kristy Swanson and her partner ended up together and he was married at the time, but their relationship must not have not been very stable if this show broke them up. As another poster mentioned actors and actresses do it all the time in their jobs.
Well, I am sorry that you think it's ridiculous for me to think this way.
Stable relationship or not, there is no man on earth who could resist (Jesus was even tempted!) a woman when dancing close to her like that. Stability has nothing to do with it. It's wrong no matter how you look at it. I'd like to see you give your hubby up to one of those dancers to practice with them 6 nights a week 10 hour days for 3 months straight. Would you do it, LinK?
It seems ridiculous because it is - sm
You are not ready to divorce. This issue has not been worked through yet. You have too much unfinished business with your marriage. You have got to get back to a marriage counselor. If hubby will not go, go alone. It may be you decide things will not work out, but I urge you to turn explore every avenue before throwing in the towel. Then if you do leave him, you will know you did all you could and not need to look back. Best of luck.
Really??? That is ridiculous sm
Bleeding the beast? What happens to these people's logic?
Ridiculous.........
I suppose the news needs some garbage to throw out there to get attention. This is not a man, but a woman, with the body parts to have a child. Just no breasts. So what now, does a woman with a mastectomy suddenly become a man? Pleeeeezzze!!!! I do feel for that child. How in the world do you explain all this? Then again, if the child grows up among it all, probably won't think twice about it.....this will be the norm for that child.
I thought I would be sick watching Oprah oooh and aaah over this person, A MAN GIVING BIRTH........what a joke!
That's ridiculous, isn't it? There should be
continue to hire new workers when existing workers aren't able to get enough work to live on.
actually I don't think everyone else is ridiculous
I used to believe the same things myself.
As far as having an innate knowing, I believe deep down we all feel we have a hole inside if you will. I know when I was searching and seeking I felt that. Yet when I found Jesus, it was like he filled that hole.
I believe that it requires faith to believe. That is why we don't have an innate knowledge.
I believe that if someone doesn't have Jesus they cannot comprehend all that the Bible has to say. That is why we need the Holy Ghost, to interpret for us. I read the Bible at least three times cover to cover before I accepted Christ. I could have been reading a different language for all I understood. After accepting him though, I started to understand, and parts of Scripture stood out like neon lights when I needed them.
I used to believe that everyone could get to heaven any ol' way they wanted, just as long as they were good people. Now I know that isn't true. If we could get to heaven by good works, why did God have to send his Son to die?
I have studies on this a lot. Like I've said before, I was practically dragged kicking and screaming to Christ :) I did not want to accept what I knew as the truth. Why? Because doing so meant giving up my own selfish wants and needs. Giving up my own fleshly desires. No more going out and living crazy and doing what I wanted. But you know what? I owe Him that. He died for me. And you. And that is regardless of whether you believe Him or not. That's the amazing thing. He died knowing that even 2000 years later people would be practically spitting on Him. (Not saying that you personally are, but there are a lot of people who do)
Anyways check out that site, and if you are truly searching, I urge you to really check out that book by Josh McDowell. Ravi Zacharias is also an amazing apologist that really opened my eyes and helped me to understand a lot. He has a website with some essays and he also has a bunch of books (you can find them at Lifeway and I'm sure other bookstores).
If you ever want to talk, please email me. I know what it's like to be searching and to not know what you believe. I ran from God for so long, but when I finally came to Him I didn't understand why I had run for so long. No, life will not be a piece of cake if you become a Christian. More likely, you will endure hardship and trials and tribulations. But this life here is a blink of an eye compared to the eternity we spend with Him after.
Just imagine the things that could be done in this world if everyone allowed God to work through them and to bring forth the talents that he has given them. It would just be amazing!
Times are going to get hard soon, and people are going to have to make a choice. I know my Lord will be here when it is all said and done. I pray that you will be there with us!
That's ridiculous
What do they expect, for you to call every 5 minutes just in case they come up with something else? "This is me calling to see if you have made any plans in the last 5 minutes." Totally stupid.
I would have to wonder if they wanted me there.
this is ridiculous
This is absolutely the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Mean old people live A LOT LONGER THAN YOU THINK and news flash THIS IS NOT THEIR LAST CHRISTMAS, IT NEVER IS...
That's Ridiculous
Please ignore this person who obviously hates their life very much. 99.99% of us support you and think you did a good thing.
Some people just have no life and this is the only way they can get any attention. They say negative attention is better than no attention, so this person obviously needs lots of attention.
You know the rest of us support you. Ignore these types of posts.
Now, that's ridiculous.....
how does cutting off the outer ear to do with preventing ear infections? The absence of an outer ear enhances the possibility to get an ear infection.
I would rather assume that uncircumcised men miss out.
I think it's ridiculous
to label her as a sex offender. There has to be a better way to handle the situation.
I think that's ridiculous (sm)
Anyone applying for unemployment has obviously worked and contributed the funds available. It's all based on prior earnings and you have to meet certain guidelines to collect on it anyway.
Where the heck does drug testing enter into this equation? Just another way to avoid paying out monies that are due to the people who are entitled to them. One more method of ripping away yet another right from the American worker.
Sorry, I don't care if John Doe tests positive for weed, opiates, benzies, or WHATEVER his DOC may be, that is completely irrelevant to his entitlement to unemployment that he worked and paid into.
What a bloody pathetic excuse to spend a huge amount of taxpayers' money to avoid paying people what they have earned and are entitled to.
It's ridiculous.
When I was in college, I had an English professor actually give an assignment over the weekend that was to get high and write about it. Absolute nonsense! We wonder why our country is in the mess it is in when college professors condone illegal behavior.
