Don't be so quick to ignore it
I had something similar happen to me but it was a phone call. Would never have suspected it but it turned out to be true. It is much better to know than to be fooled. Check into it and you will find the truth. I found proof from the cell phone numbers. Very easy to find a pattern. Good luck. I truly hope it is just a prank. Not a fun thing to go through.
I agree, at least on the surface
it is a very strange story, us apologizing for the Chinese sending us poisoned toys. Obviously they would have been recalled no matter how good the design was.
Low quality standards just drive me nuts.
Oh, your poor thing. I hope your cat gets well quick!

oh how I know - they are the most dangerous gang
most dangerous gang here in America - the world has become a very dangerous place....all some of us wanted was peace and love an all we got was guns, terrorism, gangs, death, and more destruction!
makes me VERY ILL..........
Hey Gang, It's Shaggy, its a mystery, where is everybody?...sm
We need to find Wally. If you know what this message means, then you know who I am. If you don't know the code, it will just look like a crazy random message. ZOIKS!! 
Next time, don't wear your gang colors and leave

so, your mentality is let the child live with this?

What do you use to polish your solid-surface countertop?
We have a Corian-type (manmade, not granite or quartz) countertop and we have tried just about everything, including what the manufacturer recommends and even car polish. Our house is only a little over a year old, but the countertops are already starting to look a little scratched and dull.
I love the color - it is a deep brick red - but if I had it to do over again, I would get a lighter color. This dark color shows every little scratch.
Any suggestions?
'and drop out mentality' (got clipped above)

not every child in the 3rd grade is going to have the mentality of a 3rd grader. some or ahead
and some arent. some still believe. there isnt that much difference between 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders...i am talking about an entire classroom of thirty children. she didnt use the word " exist"...she had children raise their hands as to what parts of the story is false and fiction...i just think she could have found a diff story, didnt have to talk about santa ya know?
So true. Mass (or mob!) mentality is a real drag.
inteligence (at least in comparison to some of the lower apes..) and originality most human beings are born with, that somewhere early in our lives, "society" begins to do its best to beat it all out of us. It starts in kindergarten, goes all the way through college (so-called places of "higher learning"), and then intensifies to almost unbearable levels once we join the workforce. I guess it's that same ol' story - it's all about power. Those who have it are threatened by those of us who think outside the box (and color outside the lines).
I'm waiting for a quote from Tom Cruise to surface, being he's the expert on EVERYTHING. nm

I'v always been language-challenged
:) but that's good to know and think about!
this should be challenged in court
This is NOT a communicable disease and should NOT be mandatory. What about possible side effects, what about 20 years down the line when they discover it caused a new problem. No. It is wrong to make this mandatory. This regards one's personal health decisions, for their CHILD no less. What next?
I am directionally challenged -
I consider Fleming County east - but I guess if you are in the more northern part close to Maysville that would be north. My daughter is a Pharm.D. - took a job in Maysville and hated it. I always thought that would be a great town to live in - but too small for her. Son-in-law and family are in Covington.
Ok, my big boy cat is weight challenged
I refuse to hurt his feeling and say (fat)around him so let's just keep at weight challenged. Took him to the vet today as noticed his coat was not shiny like his brothers and he was so big wanted to see if possible diabetes or thyroid and could go from there. He, his lighter-weight brother and younger half sister have all been grazers. I keep the food bowls full in the day with wet and dry food when I went to bed, treats thru the day. Well, good times are up and now vet says labs ok and wants to get him on diet. Vet has said 2x a day 1/3rd cup of food and maybe 2 little pieces of the dry food as a treat. He is 4 years old and 23 lbs. He is a BIGGGG boy. Anyone else out there who has had to put their furries on diets and how did yours turn out?
Being autistic vs. being mentally challenged
What's the difference between these two?
I am soooo decorating challenged and need help. I want to put some color
on my bedrom walls, I'm thinking a light sage color. If I paint the walls the sage color, does the ceiling get painted the same or an off/white? If I paint the ceiling the same color as the walls wont the room feel much smaller and "cave" like? I have comforter with olive, sage, dark brown colors. Average size room with windows on 2 walls so there will be light coming in.
Thanks for your ideas.
With my luck, my "weight challenged" cat would eat the ball!
LOL!
agree on at least one thing
I also believe an atheist can be a terrific parent . . so we at least agree on that!
I agree with you. One more thing, I would like global warming
a
Tough love can be a good thing - I agree w/you
You did the right thing. He needs to learn otherwise you are going to have a yo-yo on your hands.
I wish I had stuck to my guns the first time my son did that. It took me a few years to learn. Moving away from home is NOT something small. It is a BIG thing and you son needs to realize that. I WISH I had listened to someone besides my mothers advice and maybe my son would be better off.
IMHO--- People should get real - You took YOUR key back You did NOT kick him out you were giving him what he wanted. You did NOT put him out into the streets.
Stick to your guns mom and I think that one day he will be a better man for it.
Ditto! Agree she can't keep her mouth shut, remember the Kelly Ripa thing?

Don't ignore it
How close are you to the niece? I have several nieces and nephews that I am close to. They aren't teenagers anymore, but a few of them went through similar situations.
If it were me, I would first talk to the niece and ask her if these stories are true. Explain that she needs to protect herself - not use birth control pills and condoms but staying away from alcohol and drugs which put her in a dangerously vulnerable situation. Does she understand how many young people will spike her drinks just to see her get loopy?
If you thought she was playing Russian roulette, you wouldn't hesitate to get involved - talk to her and then talk to your sister.
Best of luck to you - I really do understand your feelings.
My sister-in-law and I walk together several times a week. We don't walk on a flat surface
we walk around a park that is constantly up and down so we get a better work-out and it is much more enjoyable to have someone to walk with. I have also joined Curves and really enjoy that.
Please ignore the meanies
You obviously needed support/comfort today, and I'm sorry that certain posters who did not have anything nice to say would not just skip your post.
I do hope your ex will change his mind and let your son visit, for you and for him. If not, my hope is that you will be able get through the disappointment and try to look forward to the next time he is able to visit. It sounds like it is best not to "argue" with your ex on this, and perhaps by "turning the other cheek", so to speak, and not letting him know you are upset with him personally about this, just disappointed, he may let your son visit for part of the summer??
Whatever happens, try to keep your chin up and look ahead.
Please ignore the above post
My hubby often does not listen to me but I know for a fact he is not having an affair.
I have just quit listening to him as well. It has become a joke in our family. Not to make light of your situation, I know yours is more serious, but don't assume he is having an affair. I guess it is possible, but how the above poster "knows" he is having an affair is ludicrous.
why not just ignore my post and be on yours

a little too coincidental to ignore...

My ignore list.
Any kind of meat
Sweet Potatoes
Yams
Pizza (sadly, that is a recent addition. My stomach can't handle it)
Raw eggs
Plain iceberg lettuce
Plain hazelnuts (which I just recently discovered are aka "filberts." Ha.)
Unsalted peanuts
Boca burgers
I'll only eat tofu if it's in a very spicy Thai dish
Totally inappropriate, but I think I would probably ignore it.

Ignore the trolls....they are just looking to cause a stir.
I wish everyone could be guaranteed the day off from work to do with as they wish.
it IS MOST rude to ignore any RSVP....got it?
I would totally ignore them. Difficult as it is
if you do not give them a moment of attention or let them know you are offended - they will eventually stop. Why play their game - stoop to their level? Then they have won
She's just trying to stir stuff up - ignore her - sm
Notice she didn't mention having to chase after and care for children.
Maybe her kids are grown. I don't know about you but I am always on the go with the kids. My mom rarely had time to do stuff with us when we were kids and WE cleaned HER house too.
KitKat sounds like a troll.
oh, it occurred to her, she chose to ignore it...
and these people had to pay $7000 income tax on these vehicles so most of them sold the vehicles instead. However, giving a car isn't as bad as a plasma TV in my mind for the homeless because at least they could sleep in the car(s)......cellphones and plasmas for the homeless made no sense whatsoever to me.
I would just ignore and move on, she sounds - sm
a bit confused, is dementia setting in both mom and the grandma, or are they just drauma queens? As for both of your kids going to a birthday party, who cares, if only one is invited what is the big deal, maybe the kid inviting is not friends with the brother, or there is a big age difference, etc. I have 2 girls and don't take both of them to the party that only 1 was invited to, very bad manners as you point out to invite your other child so they "don't feel left out", which sounds like your mom and grandma think. Maybe your younger son is more spoiled than the first one (hard not to do) or is more social and has more friends. Totally screwy. I'd just invite her, not ask her about it, and just go on like nothing happened.
If you're sure it isn't true, ignore it
It's certainly an easy way for someone to try to make trouble for your husband. I wouldn't pursue trying to figure out who sent it. Don't give them the satisfaction.
I was taught to "always ignore the ignorant."
Unfortunately, I've run into people like that before, and I just ignore the comment, make nice chit-chat for a few minutes and "see you later alligator." At least, I demonstrated what my values are and did not degrade myself to their level. The main word here is "ignorant." There are so many people out there that are ignorant of their own manners, ignorant of other people's feelings, just tactless mules.
I really think a lot of it is just to get a response. Ignore the unfounded remarks and let's SM
just go on as usual praising the dogs and all the things that make us smile!!!! 
it seems awfully hard hearted for people to say to ignore him...
After all, he is your dad. I do not know what you should do, but I don't think that cutting him out of your life is going to help him any. Sometimes, I think people do things for attention because they need attention.
Quick!
Introduce this witch to a different guy with more cash before it is too late. See if she goes for it. If she doesn't, then I guess you are stuck with her. This seems to be extremely weird, considering their ages and since my husband is older than me at 65 I asked him wht he thought and he said he knows of no guys his age who would agree to this huge wedding thing at that age and wasting all that cash, it is like "Look at me, look at me." So, why does she need all this attention at her age? Something is wrong here, and I wish you well. Does your dad have a buddy he would listen to?
Wow that was quick! Thanks
so much Hayseed.
a quick suggestion
when i was a kid, i got a thrill out of stealing dumb stuff, pens, markers, etc. When my mom found out, she made me take my stuff back to the store and hand it back to the owner, and apologize. I was quaking in my shoes at that point. Don't know if that would help in your situation or not...
tell me quick what this says, don’t have the time
right now to read this. Biting my fingers because cannot read until after work at 8. Thanks
Quick note sm
I think he is incredible, yes, but he is a bit of a perfectionist and even loveingly complains when we don't keep the house "clean enough" or "yardwork needs to be done". I have always said he will either make a wonderful husband or drive his wife crazy. LOL!!!
quick, someone! we need a new survey or
fill in the blanks list to have fun with !!! Anybody? I so bored.
Hmm, I have a quick answer to that one.

Because Americans want a quick fix
>>I don't understand why people will take a med if its something that will run its course and your body will take care of.
They don't want to suffer with ANYTHING - illness or otherwise. It's all about instant gratification. Fix me now, with the least amount of effort on my part. A pill for weightloss, a pill for depression - suck out my fat. How many people take drugs for diabetes or high blood pressure or cholesterol - when diet and exercise would fix the problem? I understand that not everyone with those problems can be fixed without medication - but many, many could be.
we also make a quick
salmon soup....drain most the juice, add about 2 tbl of butter to the meat in the pan, salt, pepper, and then add a can or so of milk and heat. eat with saltines crushed in it too. lots of omegas, warm, quick and tasty.
Quick Wii question...sm
Okay, I've looked all over the boxes and i've even asked the guy at Best Buy who was obviously hasn't worked there long. Anyways, we got a Wii for my son for Christmas - once he takes it out of the box, can we just plug it in and play or do we need batteries for any of the remotes?? If so, what size and how many?? TIA
