In Reply to: that's what YOU think..... - and entitled to that narrow opinion too! nm

Don't worry, it's just the earth cycles and cows passing gas.

Gore cares?

The NES (Nashville Electric Service) reports that Gore's 20-room, 8 bathroom mansion in Nashville uses more electricity in 1 MONTH than the average American household uses in a year.  And the article didn't mention the other 2 homes he owns. 


Gore's Inconvenient Truth it was on HBO last night.

 did you watch any of it?  These issues have been around since before Gore did his movie/book/piece on Global warming......


As I remember/know it - many of us were concerned about these issues back in the 1970s!  And still today, many of us are worried about the selfish masses in this life. 


I, thankfully, am not selfish.....



Know the facts...
Get your facts straight
http://www.pitbulllovers.com/pit-bulls-ten-things-you-should-know.html
Pitbulls were NOT bred to attack humans. Unfortunately some humans trained & bred pitbulls to fight dogs. Dog aggression is not to be mistaken with people aggression. And like I said before, in so-called reported "pitbull" attacks unless I was there & I heard & seen EXACTLY what happened, I am not about to pass judgement.
Here are some facts.

http://www.dogsbite.org/bite-fatalities-2008.htm


Notice how many of these descriptions of fatalities use the phrase "the family's pit bull".


 


Both are facts, now if you said - sm
I think Judy Blume books are great.....then that is an opinion. Or, My mom thinks I look good in blus shirts, again that is her opinion (she thinks, I think, etc.). All in the phrasing and point of view of the statement. But I enjoy would be a fact, because you are stating what you like to do (a fact), and your mom liking something is a fact as well, as it is a definite statement.
the facts
One of his daughters is allergic to dog fur which makes it very hard to get a rescue dog. The dog was a gift from E. Kennedy. The Obamas, in lieu of getting a rescue dog gave a 'substantial donation' to the humane society (or similar) in D.C., which, IMO, will save many more dogs than the one he would have rescued.
Don't know the facts about this family but....
Common sense dictates that foods with added hormones and antibiotics CANNOT be good for human consumption. It is completely unncessary. I only buy eggs without hormones and additives to the chickens, free range, and the same with the milk. If a human mother were taking in hormones and antibiotics, wouldn't there be a warning to her if she were breastfeeding not to nurse her child, that this could potentially be dangerous.
snopes merely has all the facts
x
They're both facts

I enjoy reading books by Judy Blume.   That's a factual statement.  I'm not saying anything about the quality of the writing or the stories.  Just that I like reading the books.  If it were phrased Judy Blume's books are really, really good then that would be opinion. You may think so, but the person next to you may think they're trite.


Same goes with the shirt.  My mom loves for me to wear blue shirts is a factual statement because your mom does indeed feel that way.  If it were turned around so that it read My mom thinks blue shirts make me look good or My mom loves for me to wear blue shirts because they bring out my eyes then those statements are Mom's opinions.  And we all know Mom is always right. .........  


Just speaking the facts, ma'am, ;)

always so negative I got her name right maybe you just dont have all the facts
Her name was Vicki Lynn however those who did know her from before know that she used the nickname Nicki when she worked in the clubs around Houston and when she went to Playboy they changed her name to Anna Nicole.

Enjoy your rant I just gave my opinion like everyone else sorry to have annoyed you with a little different point of view.
Just stating the facts ma'am, and it looks like
you are not such a great diagnostician either! lol
And the facts are, that gays exist, and want to
X
And the facts are also that there are Christians and pedophiles and (sm)
people who have premarital sex, and people who are Nuns and people who do drugs. Do we take them on field trips for all of those too?
Maybe The Facts of Life cast Charlotte Rae as ...
Edna Garrett on The Facts of Life???
We're just speaking the facts, ma'am. :)
x
you won't loose your cool if you state the facts
just as you did.  I have found in my life that everyone has to listen to me and take me seriously if I use no profanity what so ever (and don't yell).  Of course you should be upset, your child was assaulted by a bully.  I'd be all over that like white on rice!!!  Call her up, make her feel lousy for raising such a brute of a daughter.  Praise your child for being so wonderful.  Unfortunately, all we can tell our little ones is that the world is full of mean, angry others and we are so blessed to not have to behave that way.  Count your blessings for your sweet son, just love him and hug him all that much more.
Because, despite asking a question, she wanted commiseration, not facts. nm

I wasn't judging, just stating the facts ma'am....
these were things that were mentioned in the trial. And the baby and the methadone thing was accused by Larry B, I think he would know if she was taking methadone, and she was on something, we all know that.
I've heard of tops and also heard it is a good group.

get your facts straight. Rosie signed a school year

that was when her original contract was supposed to expire, June 2007, a school-year yearly contract.  ABC wanted her to sign a 3-year contract for the amount of $$ she requested.........and she only wanted to sign a one-year contract.......


I will miss her as I had given up the View due to Star Jones' fiascos....and now, once again, after June, I will never watch it again.  Rosie brought the ratings up because after 9 years of Star Jones, people were tired of the show.


Ta-Ta to The View and ABC.....


Yes, and friends too. But school is where kids learn facts, so whatever their teacher says (sm)
they are going to think it must be right. I think that is unfair leverage to use to support your own point of view as a teacher.
you can give the people the facts, but the decision making process should be left to the people

This is what our country is founded on FREEDOM OF CHOICE!   I'm laughing already; you are just as mortal as the rest of us, and don' even attempt to that you've never done anything in your lifetime that was unsafe or unhealthy. NOT gonna buy it.


Just heard
Very sad indeed.
Never heard of it until now....sm
it sounds like something you'd find in the south. I'm not sure if I like the sounds of it or not!
wow, never heard of it, but thanks!
x
I heard, so sad. I liked him.

yep, once heard it said that if you
expect nothing, you are never dissappointed, so I have learned to expect nothing, and in return, I am always surprised, which makes even the smallest of niceities someone does or says much more appreciated by me. We are to be happy givers, actually expected to give until it hurts, and not to expect anything in return, amen.
You have heard exactly what I have
over the years. I have heard so much of this I probably would swat my children out of their seats at the table if I ever heard these gross sounds. I also hate to hear yawning while dictating. Reminds me of the time I used to work outside my regular job and had a physician who was a terrible dictator in the hospital and at his office (this was a group of physicians, otherwise would not just have worked for him) and one day he dictated a letter to his bank about his account and you got it, every word was letter perfect, perfectly understandable. I think most dictators find the job of doing their reports not high on the totem pole. That is why we as transcriptionists have to put up with all this crap noise they send our way. Sneezes, snorts, eating, drawing on a cigarette (yes, years ago that 1 for me), coughing, smacking, chewing, and yes, that occasional bowel movement thing-- my mother would have killed me if I ever did this!! I learned well at her knee, still am very cognizant of others in a family/social setting.
You said if you really WANT to, well heard the
same subject on weight loss from my aunt. A lot of elderly people's appetites wane and now she talks about a person, all you have to do is push away from the table. Hmmm, sounds a lot like what you are saying. If you really want to. Ok, I am trying now- I want to be beautiful, thinner, rich, and so on and so on. Hey, I really want this so I guess it can come true, right? Like I said, lot of people just do not understand. Maybe she has a good friend somewhere that will understand.
From what I have heard,
they have great personalities. I believe that smaller dogs do need to go out more frequently for a longer period, but if you work at home, maybe this won't be such an issue.

That being said, any puppy takes a lot of time and attention, and if that is going to stress you out, say you have kids and a busy life, the puppy stage can be rough. Thank goodness puppies are soooo cute, LOL. My neighbors are working with a puppy, and unfortunately they got it at 6 weeks. They were really bleary-eyed there for a while, and thought we were really smart to get an adult dog.

Make sure you go to a good breeder. This is a good place to start:

http://www.bichon.org/breeders.htm

They are not more expensive than a "backyard" breeder who is out to make a buck. The less responsible breeders tend to give themselves away by using terms to make their line sound special, but usually mean they are outside the breed standard, or breeding for looks over health. Depending on breed, they may use words like "teacup" "giant," or even "hypoallergenic." Bichons may cause allergies for fewer people, but that doesn't help if you or a family member just happen to be allergic. So what out for such buzzwords designed to sell. A good breeder is going to have questions for you about how ready you are to take on a puppy of their breed, and they will also tell you that if at any time, for any reason, you need to get rid of the dog, call them - not a rescue, not a shelter. They will always take their dog back because they really care about the dog.

If you get one, we want to hear all the puppy (or dog) stories. :oD

Never heard of this...
but will go to Lowe's tomorrow and check it out. That might be something that works in conjunction with the other ideas.
you *heard*???? LOL.........

You *heard that AL Gore's documentary had no facts in it*?   And I quote you on that.


Believe half of what you see and nothing of what you *hear* - go do your own research for crying out loud!!! 


At least Gore CARES!!


Has anyone heard (sm)
how the poison got into the wheat?  Last I heard it was a poison that is not used in this country. 
Just heard from my son
they are finally on the bus and on their way home. We live about 1 1/2 hours from Tech. There is where my son plans on going to college. He actucally told me he loved me on the phone.
I heard that
on the local news - it is utterly unbelievable! 
Um, TOM? Never heard of it.
No hits on my abbreviation site, either.
No, have not heard.
Don't remember the 1997 thing either. Well if it worked back then, I would give it a go, but I feel it is a lost battle. I hate the prices where they are. $2.77 for me at the Gas N Go in NJ. $35.00 just the other day to fill her up.
I heard that!

Also have 2 boys and 1 girl - she is the middle child and has been a challenge since she was a baby.  Tonight is the PROM!  OMG will I be glad when tonight is over!  With my son, it was rent a tux, order the corsage take some pictures, have a good time, be careful with my new car. 


With my daughter, it is shop for dresses, shop some more, pick one out, have the store hold it, forgot a 50% deposit, go pay in full, wait a month for them to press it, shoes, slip, find a belly button ring that doesn't show quite so much through the fabric of said dress, purse or no purse, order flower for boyfriend AND also corsage for daughter because boyfriend doesn't feel like ordering corsage and his mother won't do it for him, nails, hair, makeup, be careful with my car (boyfriend is 17 and does not have his license). 


Did I mention I will be glad when tonight is over.  Truly love her to death, but yikes!  Talk about high maintenance.


I have heard it's not at all
uncommon for an older child to go back into diapers and back on the bottle when another baby comes along for the same reason - a plea for attention. My husband is only a little older than his sister, and that's what he did.

So your son simply needs more of your time and attention. I hear 4 and 5 are the most fun ages anyway. :oD


I heard that too...sm
Boy, I hope not...that'd be too weird.  I won't watch it either if that happens...
I have never heard of her. I just
read on a spoiler thing something about her and was wondering who she was?!
Never heard of that . .
just the Plott, which was just recognized by the club. It is a short-haired beautiful hound. You may be right, as there are unusual breeds, not yet recognized by the clubs. If you ever watch Crufts Dog Show in England you will see some dogs we do not yet recognize in our clubs.
Thanks for this, I have never tried it but heard about it
and now of course never will try it.  I never thought of the fumes, probably would have if I had tried it. 
Never heard of it. Do
you get them in stores or have to order them?
Tell me more, have not heard about
NM
Well, actually have heard of this before
so maybe just not able to obtain vitals and so therefore declared?
I never heard of
Curvelle.  Is it an appetite suppressant?
Anyone heard of this
before. My best friend (a male age 50) began to experience severe headaches two days ago.  He has been under a lot of stress.  Then about a day and a half ago he came down with flu-like symptoms with violent vomiting.  His headache became so bad that he took himself to our local hospital.  They ran tests and diagnosed him to have an aneurysm.  He was rushed to a big hospital in Chicago via helicopter earlier this evening.  After running tests there it was determined that it is not an aneurysm but just a "bleed".  The doctor said that it is normal for males between the ages of 46 and 60 to have this occur.  Have you ever heard of this?  I am worried sick about him.
I was a fan before anyone had heard of him
did a short-lived Fox series - can't even remember the name of it now - but this may have been accidental.  He apparently was having difficulty sleeping and told friends that 2 Ambien was not working for more than 1 hour.
I heard that, too.
You are supposed to keep them in the carton inside the refrigerator instead of in the door b/c the door is not cold enough to be a safe temp.
