Anyone remember Mini-Poo? ...

For those who don't know, Mini-Poo was a product to put on your hair to prevent it from getting oily (it was like a talcum poweder). Well, I thought it was a great idea and I was sitting in class in high school one day and my best friend was sitting in back of me. She mentioned how nice my hair looked that day and as she said it she patted the back of my hair and, you guessed it, the Mini-Poo looked like smoke coming out of my hair. She couldn't help but laugh....it was embarrassing as everyone in back of me noticed it.

Maybe a mini-makeover would
give you a confidence boost. Never hurts to go to a highly recommended hair stylist and see what they might suggest to update your look. You could go to one where they do makeup also. Ulta does both.
I love to watch What Not to Wear to see how big a change can be made and to get ideas. Sometimes the difference is huge, and they don't call it "being on the market" for nothing, LOL.
Dell Mini
With a mini, can you do everything that you can do with a laptop?
There are many rescues for mini pinpins
We just purchased a puggle and she has been very gentle, and very smart. Not one accident even in her kennel at night. She is a big baby though and doesn't like to be alone, a lap dog pretty much, but has playful moments too. If you are looking for an indoor dog you might want to check them out or the mini pinpins. Good luck to you, whatever you get, I am a firm believer that like children the "parenting" is what is going to make the difference in a good dog or bad one. :)
Well, for one thing, Cash Cab in a mini-van, not a car.

Why a mini-strike? Keep it up and they will step up

Maybe he had some kind of a mini-stroke or something, and it
Asian chicken mini skewers
Marinate cubed chicken breast, about 2", in Teriyaki sauce with lemon zest overnite in a storage back. Soak wooden (round)toothpicks in water about 30 mintues before skewering. Set oven to 400º. Skewer once piece of chicken per toothpick. Place on lightly sprayed cookie sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes. If you want, heat the left over sauce on the stove for 20 minutes, until reduced. (You must cook it before using it to avoid contamination). Braise chicken skewers with sauce reduction immediately after removing from oven.
mini-dauchsands - maggie and milo
Maggie and Milo. both girls. Last one was Ginger - also a mini-dauchsand - she died at the age of 18.
Mini-marshmallow shooters. Saw them in a catalog (sm)
thought they might be a fun for grandchildren. Will their mom kill me? It says for outdoor fun, but you can imagine they will be shooting them inside at least once. They are pretty good about picking up after themselves though.
ANyone have/used these and tell me if I am going to get in hot water if I buy them some. TIA.
As I was saying. Your own children. I love mini yorkies and when my kids
are old enough, I will get one from her. I have bought a lot of things for her dogs and do not resent her at all for not coming to see me. I am very emotionally healthy, have a great relationship with Christ as my savior, but actually feel sorry for her that she is missing out on so much because she refuses to leave her dogs. How can that be at all healthy? And you say you don't want to be around your family because they are not dog lovers? So what? Whenever our family gets together we ALL have things that the other person does or doesn't do, but we still love them as PEOPLE. My mom misses out on a lot and I feel for HER.
As a Biblical Christian, we are called to love others (she is too), and reach out to others. It says absolutelly nothing about keeping your family and friends out of your lives because "they don't like your dogs" or because you don't think they love you if they don't accept your dogs. What an enormously selfish way to live your life.
I am planning several long weekends this summer for mini-vacations.
We are going to drive up to the Omaha Zoo for a weekend. We live in rural Missouri north of Kansas City, so it's about a three or four hour drive.
Then, we have a family reunion in southern Missouri and I'm planning a 4-day weekend for that so we can spend some time in the Ozarks.
Then, we will go into Kansas City to Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun.
Then, I'm planning a four-day weekend in Branson.
So I guess we are going to explore our state too!
Plus we have a public pool in our town that the kids spend a lot of time at. Then there is girl scout camp for my daughter. My son will be getting a job this summer as he's 16 now and mom can't afford gas for my car and his car and to pay for his dates all of the time.
As you can see I try to keep my kids as busy as possible! There is nothing worse than bored children when you're trying to work!
No, but I love that my neighbor's mini yorkie is named ZEUS! haha nm
,
don't remember Minnie, but I remember Kiki! Though I would rather not.
nm
manicure/pedicure salon gift cert or mini spa day. They love that stuff! (me too) nm
The best thing for dirty diapers - mini diaper bags at the dollar store that sm
smell like powder. You get 50 to a bag - they are little blue plastic bags. Tie the poopie up tight in the bag and VOILA! throw it in your trash and no smell!
Definitely remember Buffy's Bark. Also had a Bassett Hound and remember his bark(EOM)
.
My ex did that. What I remember was that it
was horrible in the summer and going under houses was not always the greatest experience. He would find dead animals and of course spiders, mice, rats.
Just remember: He's a MAN, he's not a god. LOL

Don't remember anything, just something SM
that felt like cramp and then I woke up. No damage.
My friend, who is quite tiny, said she was moved around quite a bit, but no damage done.
I feel they were excessively rough with you, but that is just my opinion. Also, it sounds like they did not give you enough sedation. You are supposed to feel very relaxed.
Wow! I can remember when ...
we charged $25 period to type it. Then I got to thinking how long I've been out of school. How depressing.
now remember..sm
Brooke also went to Bridgette to see if she could conceive around the same time Taylor did..so, Bridgette could have taken Brooke's eggs, saved them, and used them on Taylor. Anyway, why in the world would Taylor and Nick trust Brooke's daughter with their future child??? I mean come on, Brooke's throwing herself shamelessly at Nick, yet they go to her daughter for in vitro? Wow...
I don't remember the first one....
I couldn't stand looking at Roxy...*lol* - too much gum show......and I do watch the food channel a lot!!! I used to like Rachael Ray before she got REAL famous and glammed herself out. I so liked her when she lived in upstate NY doing the 30-minute meal show or $40 a Day show. Now I refuse to watch her - her voice is very annoying to me today.
GO_AMY!!! 
I was 8 - Remember seeing it on TV (sm)
I remember it being such a shock because he had just always been there and seemed like he always would be.
Remember then from when I was a kid sm
my dad's company picnics, with horseshoes, bbqs, lots of fun
As we remember.....
I would like to ask everyone, as you remember the 9/11 attacks today, to also remember the bombing of the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995. The 9/11 attacks were far greater in scale and in death toll, and I mourn for those who died and for their families. I also mourn for the 168 people who died in the Oklahoma City bombing. Fewer in number, perhaps, but the lives just as precious. It was so hard for me to watch as rescue workers went through the rubble of the day care and pulled out those tiny bodies...
When we send our soldiers into combat, we train them and give them the best equipment available to defend themselves and destroy the enemy. The people who died on September 11, 2001 and April 19, 1995 were innocent civilians who had their lives ripped away in an instant, by people who had no respect for the sanctity of life and who were too cowardly to take their fight to the battlefield where it belongs.
Never again. We must be vigilant. These events occurred on our own soil. Each of has a duty to keep our eyes and ears open, and to cooperate with the increased security precautions our government has implemented. We are all soldiers in this war.
You THINK you remember until it comes down to it (sm)
When they are actually there in your care you have to remind yourself of exactly what babies can and can't do at certain ages. But maybe you are perfect. If so, I apologize O Great One. It ticks me off when people have smart-axe comments for no apparent reason.
thank you so much, was trying to remember the name of that myself, NM

Everyone does not think like you and I you have to remember that.

I can remember my mom when I was
a kid wore one every day, whether at work or at home, and those things back then definitely looked uncomfortable.
I'm trying to remember
but I do remember waking up feeling completely flushed hot on the inside, a pool of sweat in the middle of my chest, my heart pounding, thinking I would like to rip my clothes off and jump into the tub filled with ice. Stuff like that. They're quite nasty little episodes. Did you have one? Are you over 45?
and remember this
don't go crying the blues to anyone here when your insurance premiums and medical bills are totally out of control. It is awards like the one this person wants that make insurance unaffordable for countless Americans. any monies awarded in courts will be coming out of your pocket if you currently pay insurance premiums. Yes, I feel for the child, but money won't fix it. This costs everyone, not just the dog's owner. and it solves nothing. she still has not answered the question of what injuries the child sustained, either. to see financial renumeration above the costs of any bills incurred is unfair to EVERYONE.
You have to remember
It is very easy to take email and board postings out of context. I don't think that is quite what she meant. Sheesh.
I still remember....
....leaving cookies and carrots on a plate, for Santa and the reindeer.
I must have been around 11 years old or so, and that Christmas morning, I found a beautiful, handwritten note from my mother. I don't have the note any longer, nor do I remember exactly what she wrote.
But she explained in a loving, wonderful way, the meaning of Christmas, including Jesus, and Santa. I recall the meaning of the note, letting me know that it is the gift of giving, within us all, to give and receive, gifts in His name, and that Santa was the vehicle of that giving, for us, as small children.
I don't remember being disappointed that Santa Claus wasn't "real." Because her note made me realize that the whole season was bigger and brighter, than just Santa, gifts, and tinsel.
And I realize that Santa IS real, just like God and Jesus are real. If we believe, in that small child way, the reasons for believing, will always be with us.
Remember too well
We live in Mississippi now but lived in Florida a very long time, from Miami to Jacksonville and the panhandle. We did sit through a few 1-2 level hurricanes but were fortunate only a few days without power. After Katrina, so many of our friends and family were severely affected from New Orleans to Gulfport. We sat here in MS without power for over a week but lost nothing in it. We did have neighbors and friends that had their homes leveled by huge falling trees and three years later before one got their insurance to cover properly for them to rebuild. We were 200 miles inland with a lot of severe wind damage, so I am sitting on pins and needles knowing another one is heading in this general area and so many friends and family along the coastal areas.
Lets just all pray for everyone's safety.
I remember that too. It would be more fun
to be in the holiday spirit longer if I had more money to spend. Used to get all done before Thanksgiving, but now am waiting until the last minute, because then I won't over buy things. Plus right now, it's just paycheck to paycheck, how do you tell kids that...
PS: I want to boycott K-mart too. Every time I go in there, never find what I want, and always ask myself why I try. LOL.
I can remember as a kid when we had
chest colds, parents would put it all over our chest and then covered with a warmed towel.
jss: Do you remember seeing an
old reenactment about a girl who went upstairs to bed with her Siamese cat? A man broke in and the cat attacked him when he was coming up the stairs. It was too funny; that cat latched on and stayed on him down the road, drawing blood every step of the way!
could be she is right. I just remember
people talking about the pettycoats. Crinoline usually brings to mind scarlet o'hara, but I don't know the difference. Oh, for a ཱུ chevy to ride in.
Just remember that as they get s/m
more frail and need help and have to depend on you, you have kept your head up high, making you one ahead of them.
Yep, I remember that now that you said it
Now that you mentioned it, I remember. My grandparents lived in Kentucky and had a farm. My grandma had chickens and had fresh eggs every day. She never kept them in the fridge. Always in a basket in the pantry.
I remember.
My parents used to take us downtown once a year to shop and look at the display windows. Then we would eat at one of the department stores. Dad would take half the kids and mom would take the other half so we could all buy for each other. I remember one year when I was about 6 I was with my dad and my sister and I saw this beautiful red coat I wanted to get mom. We took it up to the counter and my dad told us to give the lady our money. Between us we had 35 cents. We gave it to her and she wrapped it up for us. My dad still tells that story today, how we bought mom a coat for 35 cents. We never did see him give the saleslady the rest of the money, and it was sweet how she played along.
Oh, do I remember!
It was a big deal around Christmas time. We'd take the bus or train to a store in another town because they had a Christmas display made up of moving figures as big as a 3-yo child. People would come from miles around to see it.
We had two 5&dimes in our town right aside of each other. One was "modern", bright lights and big display windows complete with a lunch counter and all open displays. The other was dark with all wood shelves and bins, so cramped only 2 people could fit in the aisles if they turned sideways. This store also had the candy in glass cases that you paid for by the pound.
We also had another old general store like the older 5& dime but he even sold shoes. He had a pair of red shoes with bow ties on them in the window one year. I wanted them so bad because they matched a skirt I had at the time, but they were $10. I only got an allowance of $.50 a week. I was afraid it would take me forever to save the money. Our school's magazine sale was going on at the time and I worked hard to sell as many as I could to win the $10 prize. I won and bought the shoes. It was one of the happiest days in my life.
and remember..
the air raid disaster drills at school during the Cuban missile crisis that the kids had to do? How about this one - got a driver's license from Sear's Catalog for 25 cents. No test. you just fill out the coupon, send in 25 cents and they send you a driver's license. Anybody else do that? Yes, I am older than dirt's mother. anyone remember the "rag man" or the "egg man." they would come down your street with a horsedrawn wagon, one selling eggs, the other picked up old rags but for the life of me I don't remember what they did with those rags! Remember the "milk chute?" They would deliver the milk and put it in the milk chute. If we got ourselves locked out of the house, forgot our keys, we would climb in through that milk chute! I remember listening to the green hornet on the radio. The whole neighborhood got together for that. Kukla, Fran and Ollie anyone?
I remember that!
I hoarded all the real Coke I could find too with the idea I would have to eke it out as long as it would last. Thankfully, they saw the error of their ways and ditched the New Coke. It was awful.
I remember that!
It also worked to hold the door shut where there were stalls that didn't latch. I thought it was a great idea and would have bought one in a minute. The men judges didn't understand how it would ever have any use.
Duh.
Does anyone remember?
Back around 1977 or so, the big scare was that the flu strain that year was going to be the swine flu. It was one of the first years they had any kind of a flu vaccine and they really pushed to have people get the vaccine, especially the elderly and chronically ill. The vaccine caused something like 500 cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome and killed 25. The flu only killed 1 person.
So will I be standing in line to get this flu vaccine? I really don't know......
I remember it....
I was young and my sister contracted it, was sick for about 3-5 days, then recovered just fine. None of us got the immunization (couldn't afford it).
In all likelihood I won't get this immunization, either. I remember the fallout from that vaccine in the 1970s and personally I'd rather be sick as a dog for a week and have a good shot at full recovery than let them inject me with that pretty much experimental immunization and whatever side effects could be possible.
I still say it's being overblown and overpromoted (like most everything in the media) so that the pharmaceutical company(ies) behind the immunization will have a gigantic windfall at the end of the year. What a boost for the economy.
Yes, I remember it well..
I was a nursing student, and the hospital I was doing my clinicals at had posters on all the walls predicting the coming pandemic was expected be deadlier than The Plague. My mother and I stood in line with hundreds of other people to get the vaccination, and a few weeks later I was taking care of 2 patients on ventilators who had developed Guillan-Barre syndrome from the shot. The flu itself just fizzled out and disappeared. It was the last time I got vaccinated for anything and the last time I got sucked into a government/media-induced panic over nothing.
I remember--sm
your post very well, and I do believe I was one of the ones who responded. I am glad that you went to court. I, personally, am not satisfied with the sentence he received, but that is none of my business, I suppose. Courts these days advocate more for the offender than they do for the *victim*, (sorry, I know you did not want to hear that again). However, you must totally STOP allowing him to contact you. You are still enabling him to force himself into your life by accepting his phone calls and even speaking with him. This makes him feel like he still has a chance with you and he will continue to take advantage of that chance until he gets what he wants...another victim! You say you have blocked his calls now, but that should have been a no-brainer from the time he first abused you. You are just setting yourself up for a repeat event and this time, it may be even worse. It's your life, and no one can tell you what to do, but please have more concern for your own well being than any compassion for him. Since having been convicted now by something you began and having spent time in jail, do you think he will be *kind* to you now if he ever gets close enough to you? Be wary of abusers in sheeps clothing. He may just take your life next time. Stay strong, and stop enabling him into your life. please. we don't want to read about you in headline news. Take care.
I REMEMBER ALMOST ALL OF IT
Sure did bring back some memories. I remember going with my friends to Woolsworth. You could buy a coke for a nickle. My mother had a 1948 Desoto (which was a big car back then), and it only took $3 to fill it up. She could go to the store and spend $6 to feed us for 2 weeks (5 of us). We did not have AC and only B/W TV. I remember the Brownie camera. I was 18 years old and worked on one of the first huge computers that took a whole building to hold it. Wow! Those were the days. Life was not so hectic then. People think they have so much now, but I would give it all up (except AC) to have that laid back time again.
I remember a 20/20 special about this...sm
I remember seeing something about this on 20/20 a couple of years back and just remember it's not always the best way to go. Doctors recommend it too fast without looking into other ways. There were women on 20/20 that wished they didn't have it done, can't remember all the reasons. Do tons of research before doing it. Good luck!
