My grandma watched, my mom watched, I think I watched in the womb. I was hooked by 6th grade and I still watch when I can get away from the computer, I try to at least catch the last 20 minutes to keep up. Sami and Lucas have been almost married so many times, it is boring. I love that they brought back Steve and Kayla, some of my faves from back in the day!!

I make around $50,000 but I work 7 days a week and long days, although I'm not a fast typer eithe
I think even if your fast, you'd still have to work more than 40 hours a week to make that but I could be wrong.
I remember those days too, but these days they don't want make any child felt left out. They wan
to make each of them feel special and that they have accomplished something. My 8-year-old brings a certificate of some kind during the day, accelerated reader award, trustworthy award, jr. achievement award, etc. I guess in a way, no one kid is pointed out as the "teacher's pet" or have the other kids being jealous of him/her for getting this or that award. 
Wish we could keep them forever. SM
My cat Dante only lived 11 years. I believe he had multiple strokes, but vets could find nothing definite. In the last 3 months of his life, he cried loudly all night, had staring spells. But in the last month of his life he seemed to want to squeeze into tight spaces, between bookcase and wall, and one night he jumped up on the kitchen counter and then down behind the fridge. My bedroom was behind that wall and I heard him jump down, and my daughter and I got up and pulled the fridge out, I brought him to my bed. My younger daughter took him to her vet, but still no diagnosis. He just faded away one long Saturday afternoon, wrapped in a baby blanket in my daughter's arms. He was my "little man," and came to work in my office faithfully every day. I will say a prayer for you Hayseed, I know you are sick at heart. (Hugs)

Saw this on TV forever and it said
You would not be able to get a good signal WITHOUT getting a converter box. They said antenna would NOT work, no rabbit ears, nothing besides the converter box OR having something like cable or DSL. This was playing on and on and on for months. Did you not see?
"Stupid" isn't forever
the same as "intelligent" isn't forever.
Go in before Monday and buy the Forever
stamp, you buy it at the current rate and it is good no matter what the postage goes up to.
Only if you have Forever stamps....look on

Family does last forever and it's not
about whether you do something that upsets your child. It's the fact that you prioritze a non-family member's feelings over your own daughter's. As for the girl throwing herself at the boy, the boy obviously caught her and should have had enough decency not to be caught under the covers with her in a house he is being permitted to stay in. It works both ways.
This isn't about being a parent or a friend. It's about choosing your own daughter over a non-family member. I personally would not have left the 18-yo boy live in my house with my 16-yo daughter, regardless of the daughter's BF. I agree with the other poster that stated it's just too much temptation, even if they do supposedly act like brother/sister. I have a feeling this is just the beginning of the problems you will have to endure.
Maybe FOREVER! That's encouraging. Don't want HRT and physician
said long term HRT is a thing of the past, which I didn't know. Now, they only give them for 3-6 months. Mine went away for a couple of months, but back again, 15-20 a day, but no night sweats. I thought this stuff only lasted a year or so.
Well, if I am it is unintentional - I know they won't live forever (sm)
and I don't want to have regrets. I know one day if I have grandchildren I will want them to spend time with me. But I think I would be hurt to know they were crying not to spend time with me, and I would think if I knew that, I would try to spend time with them in other ways until they were happy and comfortable being with me. I have many friends whose children bounce up and down with joy over going to stay with their grandparents and I would love for it to be that way with mine.
Diamonds are Forever song
Thought you all might want to listen to the whole song that plays on the Diamonds are Forever ad.
Name of the artist is Landon Pigg. Name of the song is "Falling in Love in a Coffee Shop" or "Coffee Shop".
Style, voice, melody remind me of Harry Nilsson.
Song will play once page loads.
Enjoy.

That's not a bad idea. he's forever putting
a few $$ here and a few $$ there in his gas tank and he has a steady girlfriend. Maybe a gift card to the movie theatre too! TY!
Good heavens, it's been forever, but...
... let's see, I left high school typing class (gulp) 39 years ago doing 52 wpm on a big ol' MANUAL typewriter that was bigger than a breadbox....
In 1980 I had to quit my first full-time MT job (back in the typewriter days) because I developed tendinitis in my wrists. After 2 months of not typing at all, I went to a temp agency to get some work because not eating is a bad way to live. They gave me the usual typing test. On an unfamiliar typewriter, typing unfamiliar material, not having typed for 2 months, feeling like I was CRAWLING, I clocked in at 104 wpm. (No wonder I burned out my wrists.)
Now we have ergonomics, expanders, tools and toys, and I have NO idea how fast I type, although when I bother to concentrate and not goof off, I can consistently and easily go at least 200 LPH.
Expect if you Google typing speed tests, you might find something. If you have the kind of Expander that works under the OS as opposed to the platform, you can even try a speed test using your expander, at least, just for the fun of it.... :)
i love her. I want her to keep saying what she thinks forever. It is so refreshing. He is a pig.

"If it's metal, it'll last forever"...sm
That's one of my dad's favorite sayings. He's a retired sheet metal fabricator. I had a plastic wheelbarrow that got a hole in it when loading it with wood to stack back in my prairie-woman days. He took a square piece of sheet metal, riveted it to the plastic, much like your chair, and 15 years later I am still using that wheelbarrow!
Carrying on here, but I just think this is so neat: When I moved in to my house I was lacking cabinet space. The kitchen had one of those closets with an ironing board in it. My father opened the closet and said "you ever gonna use this?" I only iron for weddings/funerals so I said no, had no need for it. He took the ironing board out, made 6 stainless steel shelves with 90 degree bent ends and drilled them into the cabinet. Canned goods and spices are now in there.
Sorry. Went from chairs to ironing boards. I am avoiding work today.
beauty fades, dumb is forever

I thought you might like to read the below story.

Definitely understand that - you shouldn't have to have your property be forever a memorial! (sm)
you were VERY kind to leave it there and take care of it for six months. So ridiculous that people gave you a hard time. I'm sorry that happened to you! Bad enough that you have to know something so awful happened in front of your home without a constant reminder and strangers coming up to your house all the time. And it is not your job to maintain it for them. If the family understood, then certainly no one else should have any say whatsoever.
Unless you stay on it forever, you will regain any weight you lose.
People I used to work with went on that diet once. Weight loss varied (nobody lost a lot, just a couple of pounds) and nobody kept it off.
It was scary. Felt like it lasted FOREVER. Heard
s
Yeah! Make your life an exiting one, this keeps you young, forever!.
The birth certificate has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!
You are as old as you feel and if you maintain yourself well, also OTHERS will see yuo young and say 'Wow'!
Example: Jane Fonda, she is
looks amazing, she is 71!

Days gone by
I'm right there with you. It is really scary out there today.
As far as the original post, while I know arrests of innocent people are made, I do find this story EXTREMELY hard to believe. True or not, though, you are right -- protection of your child is your first priority as a mother. Pornography is no longer just looking at naked ladies, it's just downright disgusting. I have two sons, 12 and 10, and I live in fear of what is out there that could hook them.
I have many days like that too :(

in a few days?.............no no no.....sm
The faster the better on these fraud things - your daughter is going to wait a few days? This is VERY_BAD.
She should have already gotten a police report (takes 4 days to physically get it in her little hands) - and then she should have ALREADY called the bank to freeze her account, open another account.
BTW, my daughter had her purse stolen from my car - she called me immediately - I was on the phone with the bank, every credit card company, etc. (this was on a Sunday), and on Monday - I showed up at the bank and the perps got NOTHING. Time is of the essence on these matters.
When my daughter first moved out of the house back in 1999, someone stole checks from her house/desk. They got all her $$ which was $1400. She went to the bank - and the bank, at first, didn't want to give her the $$ back - but in the end, they did !!! All the $$.
Again, time is OF THE ESSENCE! Hopefully, while I'm typing this, I'm thinking you are SURE to tell me that the bank was notified via phone when it happened.
*fingers crossed*
Yes, it went away after three or four days.
As far as results, I am 45 with very fair skin. I did notice that my skin FELT nicer. It definitely felt smoother, and I thought I looked "brighter", if that makes any sense. It didn't actually erase any wrinkles, but then, I have to say that I don't have tons of wrinkles - great genetics. I have crinkle lines when I smile, but not wrinkles on my relaxed face. I still use Roc, but only about four times a week, and I'm always very careful about sunblock twice daily. (I like Neutrogena daily defense.)
Days
Do you think Sammy and EJ will get together? I hope so. Lucas is such a tool.
One of those days
I think I am to the point where is someone were to offer me $100 I would take it and take my dog and two cats, leave and not look back. Become homeless, no responsibilities or cares. I know just a bad day and tomorrow will be better. But at least I have somewhere to write this to make me feel better.
I don't think so - these days (sm)
People work into their 70s and beyond, that mentality may have been more reasonable when people retired at 60. Especially if what you want to go to school for is 4 years or less. I actually know someone that finished medical school at 40 and then started into residency - not finishing until 6 years later (extra fellowship).
Yes it is - in the old days with other
sick cats I used chicken baby food. Sometimes mixed vitamin paste available OTC in with it but that changes taste considerably and syringed some in when they were really sick. Baby food is not good for normal cats because it is high in fat but to get more calories in less food in a sick cat it always worked wonders for me. I also mixed a little warm water in it.
My first 2 days were very fun.
The work is such a nice change, constantly moving. There are all these different greenhouses, and it's the slow time of year so I'm doing detail work like making signs. Today I culled out dead plants and entered them into inventory. I have come to terms with my golf cart; it is very useful when it's time to move the "deads" over to the compost heap and empty out the containers. Then I drive the containers over to the potting shed area. We all take lunch and breaks at the same time, and everybody is super nice. I have noticed they eat a lot of fruit and healthy foods for their snacks, and I brought in our leftover veggie tray from New Year's, and they were appreciative to share that with me today. They are very into their dogs and cats, and everybody has an interest in plants in common. I can ask questions about plants any time, whether it's work related or gardening related. I got to look at slides of live nematodes today. I am being taught to recognize pest attacks to report as I do my work. So it's all very active and satisfying for me.
Now if we can just get Bear up to speed. We chose not to crate Bear because it was a longer day with DH out of town. Bear did a little better, but did work on the ottoman a little more. I think we'll try crating him tomorrow, and I'm also eyeing a bottle of clonazepam I have on the counter! I know there are herbal things for dogs I can try also; I've just never had this problem before.
those were the days
I bet the stew cooked on the wood stove was great. . some of the old ways of cooking were tastier than they are now. . . when we had the ice storm a few years ago, my fiance said he fixed all kinds of food on his wood stove. . he was quite pleased with himself. .
Tried it for a few days
but just couldn't stand the taste of the soup any longer! I also didn't lose any wieght but didn't really have high expections either. I think if you have enough will power to try something like that, then just do Weight Watchers. I haven't done it myself but I've seen many people go through that program and it seems to be a heck of a lot healthier and better overall/long run instead of putting yourself on a liquid diet (because basically that's what you're doing with the Cabbage Soup Diet/Lemonade Diet, etc).
People are always looking for the quick & easy way to lose wieght (I won't deny it, myself included). Imagine if we put those efforts of looking for the shortcuts into actually following a real nutrition & exercise plan!
I will let you know. She says it may take a few days SM
to get back to me. I am concerned for them. I can image how she and her husband feel. I saw them today and she, especially is shaken by this. Thanks for caring.
Ever have one of those days
Ever have one of those days that you type and type and type and after 8 hours look and find you've only done 600-700 lines when usually you've done more. Just am frustrated right now. It's hot (102 degrees here), and I'm tired. I'm tired, tired, tired. I feel like I'm getting too old for this (only 48 years old but I feel like I'm 68). Feels like I'm going to just wither and die in this chair. My DH will walk out one day and find me and rigamortise will have set in and he'll have to unclamp my fingers from the keyboard. Guess the heat is just getting to me and I'm tired. Not so much the heat, I'm just tired. Think I overslept. I function good on 6 hours of sleep and last night I got 8 or so. Oh well, in an hour or so I will be completed with my jobs and then will veg out in front of the TV eating something. Oh yes....what an exciting life I lead here. Okay, that's my venting of the day. Thought I'd give everyone something different to read (although I'm sure a lot of you feel the same way). 
YEP - definitely having one of those days...
Guy i've been seeing for 6 months left his wife a couple of weeks ago (yay for me) and then he tells me this afternoon that he's got a girlfriend and that it's serious and that she's supposed to be leaving her husband so that the two of them could be happily ever after. Definitely broke my heart - have cried all night, the thought of food makes me sick at my stomach, then my air conditioning goes out on the house and I have to pay a repairman to come out at 8:30pm to fix it. Oh, think I forgot to mention that I'm also married but he won't deal with anything so I have to get things fixed, pay, etc. Definitely a wo is me kinda night! :(
I go every 2 to 3 days....
my hair is extremely thick and I don't need to shampoo every day, blessed to not have oily problems or dry scalp. I rotate between 3 Redken products, Color Extend, Smooth Down and All Soft, using both shampoo and conditioner. I'm about to try Pureology soon, have heard good things about the products.
Every 2-3 days would be all right...nm

These days
anyone should understand that it would be stupid for a woman (or anyone) to give strangers a ride like that. (I am meaning those young men should get that ... not saying you are stupid.)
It's unfortunate, but what can one do?
I think it's odd for anyone to ask in the first place. Most people have SOMEONE they could call.
Those people can sometimes get what they are after by catching someone off guard.
So sad that you had the normal response of feeling guilty and like you had to offer some sort of valid excuse. They were putting you in an uncomfortable and dangerous position ... and YOU felt guilty!
God would not put people in ridiculous positions like that (angels). He knows what our world is like!
Ever have one of those days!
Where your fingers just refuse to cooperate? I am having one of those today! Just seems like the signals don't get from my brain to my fingers like they are supposed to. Misspelling words that are SO easy!
I am having one of those days right now...nm
ss
Yup, have too many of those days!
Thank God for spellcheckers!!!
You ever have one of those days ....???
I work on a clinic account - easy peasy and I love it. I have one doctor who is from Croatia. He tends to eat his lunch as he's dictating and he's always eating carrots or something very crunchy. I've learned to work around that and rarely leave blanks.
Not today, though. Boy howdy my ears were just not hearing what he was saying and I had to leave 5 blanks for QA! I've never left that many blanks on this account. Three of them I just flat out had no clue what he was saying and two I thought I had it, but didn't want to guess.
And he wasn't even eating his lunch when he dictated this!!! Oy. That was my first report so far today. Here's crossing my fingers that the rest of them go a little bit easier.
Maybe more caffeine.....................
I have had those days.....sm
I also have days where it seems like my fingers aren't in cooperation with my brain. LOL
One of these days you will be a sm
very lonely old lady! Life doesn't always work out like we plan and you are headed for a disaster lady. I have seen it happen all too many times.
If the man is smart (obviously he isn't) or gets wise, you are headed that way sooner than you know!
23, 26, and 28 -- I'm 35 now and some days
I don't know whether I'm coming or going. Thank God I have the luxury of working from home as an SE -- setting my own hours to work around all their ball schedules. Whew! Some days I wish I would have waited until I was later in my 20s or even early 30s to start, but other days I'm glad I'll be done raising kids when I'm still young enough to enjoy my retirement and maybe grandchildren. I can't imagine being a grandmother yet, though. That seems so strange to call myself that. 
That's a lot to assume. Everyone has bad days.
Everyone shouldn't be so quick to judge!
Even though I'm not in the mood, I usually give my husband a smile or something. He usually just smiles and then leaves me alone. I think sometimes even if they aren't getting anything they still just want to feel wanted, ego boost, whatever you want to call it. :)
lots of days like that!
if I can I make a quick run to the coffee shop for a latte or take a 5 minute walk. its amazing what a lift a cappuccino or a latte will bring to my day.
So where does one meet these days?
So how does a single person meet someone then, especially if not into the bar scene at all? Okay - let me list where I might meet someone: Church...which usually is very limited because almost everyone is married. Any other suggestions? I know what a huge list I have....
Yeah, 45 whole days - sm
that is not much of a punishment. Granted she won't have TV or any electronic devices, so I guess she will just have to play with her hair, read, do needlepoint, whatever to pass the time in her solitary confinement cell. Not like she will ever experience what real women inmates go through, probably won't even get strip searched, though she'd probably like that, who knows.
