find sites like this. A while back there was a young girl that asked for money to help pay her bills due to credit card debt. People actucally sent her money. How are these sites even found? Just curious?

I needed a box of Kleenex. I wondered what people who watched in

I was not laughing at anyone. I just wondered why people didn't post

I have wondered about that sm
I won't take a shower if there is lightening. Is that silly?
I have wondered.....
I am assuming that govt is using the same checking account you wrote a check to them from. I wonder what will happen if you've closed down the checking account for some reason. Seems like a lot of red tape for the IRS (is that an oxy-moron?). Then funds are returned to IRS and they have to cut check? Seems like it would be easier for checks to be cut for everyone on same day and mailed out. oh well....just something I thought of as I was reading the posts. With us, our stimulus will cover the checks we just wrote to them for last years taxes and this quarters taxes. Kind of makes you feel like your not getting anything....gee what a deal. HA HA. Okay, its late and I'm a bit loopy.
just wondered
The tampon thing is just gross. I have seen stuff in my magazines using those to make crafts. I'm sorry, but there is no way I would make a craft with something like that. lol
Often wondered that myself.
I always wondered about that...thanks!!!
I've often wondered if the growth hormones added to dairy products could possibly be absorbed into the human system and be contributing not only to the precocious puberty you mention, but also to the obesity epidemic amongst children (of course, I realize the sedentary activities such as gaming also contribute to this problem).
I avoided any dairy products with that growth hormone when my daughter was younger and bought organic instead just in case.
Thanks for the info, DB!!!
I often wondered too.
Years ago my niece got a small bird on her stomach. The tattoo artist (I use that term loosely) asked her if she planned on getting pregnant and, if so, to think about placing the tattoo somewhere else. She went ahead and got it on her stomach. Three children later, it looks like a vulture spread out on multiple branches (those would be the stretch marks).
I have wondered if
I would actually be a bit faster if a little tipsy (as more relaxed), but I'm afraid I would end up too drowsy after a bit.
I wondered the very same thing.

She is quite fashionable. Yes, I wondered where her

I often wondered if a hysto
would help with PMS symptoms. I even thought about exaggerating a few of the physical symptoms, if needed to get one. I do have back pain to the point of seeing a chiropractor. The cramping isn't too bad and I don't have a heavy/long cycle. I just have severe PMS. Thanks for your input.
good for you, wondered how you
were doing. I am so happy for you. The decision you made was a good positive one and that alone would improve your outlook and mood.
OMG!! That's it. I wondered why mind was so.....sm
explosive and obviously ready to fight over just anything. Why I never took this into consideration I will never know, but that is so right on!!
I have wondered if I have fibro too...sm
I have been soo tired too. I know tiredness goes along with fibro so I wondered. I don't know.
I have always kind of wondered if they ...sm
were really his because the children look 100% white to me. I mean, I know, it is possible I guess to have all white features. It is just I haven't seen a mixed child myself who didn't at least have a tanned skin who was of mixed race. I had a sneaking suspicion that he wanted 100% white children seeing as how he obviously wanted to be white himself. I mean, he did something to his skin to lighten it, and it was lighter than some white people's skin. So I can see him not wanting a child with dark or even slightly dark skin as a lot of mixed children have. If he wasn't comfortable himself having dark skin then do you think he wanted them to have dark skin? I don't. I could be wrong, but I have always suspected they weren't really his by blood. Of course, he was still their father whether they were his biologically or not. He is the only dad they knew. So he was the father, yes, but biologically, I don't know.
Hmmm, wondered why they had the cap on that baby
in the Bahamas? Did anyone else notice that? Baby mama drama continues.
Dang, I wondered why it hurt so much
sharper scissors, huh?
I had wondered if it was bec his joints are sore (sm)
That is interesting. He does seem arthritic these days but I thought it was just from him being so old. I had wondered if he was chewing his paw (the top of his paw, not the pad) because his joints hurt. I feel so bad for our poor pets who can't tell us what is wrong. I guess he will have to go to the vet (whether he likes it or not!)LOL
I also wondered why she mentioned biracial
it sounds racist to me to tell you the truth. Instead of saying children, why separate them? Oh by the way, I don't live in Chicago, live in the south, have biracial child, grown now and she told me NEVER had a problem in school, if anything she always told me had the best of both worlds! She has a wide mixture of all races in her friends from Caucasian to Asian. I as well as she take people for how they act, not a certain color.
Have often wondered why they take my picture at such an angle (sm)
to make me look like I have a major second chin. WHen I look in the mirror I think I am holding my head tilted back and it doesn't show to me as much. (The glory of looking through trifocal lenses I suppose.)
If you are happy with yourself and healthy, don't stress about it. I think we spend too much of our time obsessed over our appearance anyway.
P.S. this came from a fat and sassy grandma, so take it for what it is worth.
I agree with you. I just wondered if all the folks
speaking out in defense of the bible being there would feel the same if it was another religious document that was not in line with their beliefs.
Out of curiosity, do they have bibles in public school libraries? I honestly don't know.
I wondered about that as she is going to costa rica for
several weeks this summer, plus cheerleading camp, plus "regular" summer camp. We got her an IPOD last year so maybe a gift card in her stocking to download some more music would be okay?
Oh, I wondered when our aetheist friend would arrive.
t
Worried, horrific rib pain (I think) and wondered
if anyone else has ever had this, what did it turn out to be. I was diagnosed with fibro but this is really unbearable. Any thoughts?
I could have written your post. I've wondered too.
So glad you asked this, have wondered the same thing. nm
!
Totally agree and I've always wondered...sm
HOW the H**L do they get away with it when they obviously are NOT the majority?!!?? I don't get it. And if they have "rights" to have things their way, what about OUR rights to have it OUR way??? I've just been baffled and dumbfounded about this. Especially the whole Christmas thing. It seems to me, that if 99% of the people WANT Christmas parties or Halloween parties or whatever then they should have them. It would then be the parents right to keep their child home from school on the days of the parties they do not believe in. The same goes with the Pledge of Allegiance. If you don't believe, don't participate. Don't take away everyone else's right to have it! I also don't understand how these people can live with themselves. They have to know they are the minority, yet they took away our rights, not to mention in some cases, many, many, many years worth of history! I'm talking about everything, not just the school parties and such but things like taking God out of the courts, the Pledge of Allegiance from schools, etc.
Can you imagine if we did our presidential elections the same way? The winner being the one with the fewer votes just because some p*ss head was a crybaby and couldn't deal with not having his own way. To me all of it is just a DUH! situation or as Carlos Mencias says it "dee dee dee!" and shame on the courts/government or whoever lets these idiots get away with it!!!! MY rights have been taken away because of a FEW a**holes that apparently weren't getting any satisfaction at home so had to get their jollies off on something else!
Same goes with banning books from libraries, shows from tv, etc. If you don't like it, don't buy it, don't watch it, don't look at it! DUH! I don't like onions but I'm not sueing grocery stores because they sell them and having them banned from the shelves! DUH! DUH! DUH! FREAKIN' DUH!!!!
And WHY the H*ll are WE, the majority, not putting up the same fight the p*sshead, friggin crybabies did to get these things back??? Instead we sit back and p*ss and moan and cry about it. (and go off on boards like I am right now, lol)
Struck a chord, sorry. It's been building for a very long time.
U, ttoo, am glad to see you back,. I always wondered
that they sent you home with fever and so much pain.
Never hesitate to go to the ER when you are in severe pain and have fever.
Better safe than sorry.
Especially if one THINKS having a heart attack or stroke.
Because here 'time is of the essence.'

I thought about it too. Michaels has lots of beads. Just wondered if my mature

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.
it is wonderful to see how many people have such strong opinions about people in debt.
I thought that the purpose of this board was to be able to post without being judged unfairly or have somebody tell you how wonderful their personal life is, and therefore you are causing their life to be less wonderful with your irresponsibility. Well, the saying "walk a mile in my shoes" is a good one in this case. Since you have no personal information about the person you are lambasting because they are looking for information on their debt, you can feel superior. Had you had personal information about them, you might act in a more human manner. Consider fighting cancer for 4 years, working and being debilitated while you do, suffering the effects of chemo, going into debt to maintain your home for your children and looking for a way out of debt SHOULD YOU EVEN LIVE THROUGH THIS!! Thank you for the kind comments. To the judgmental people I say please take a step back before you judge. You do not know who you are talking to and if you knew the personal information maybe your comments would be kinder.
I get frustrated by the double standard they use when judging people. They let certain people go sa
What do you think about the voting process?
People who go around calling other people "low class"
have their own issues in life. Ignore them. Nothing like a misplaced superiority complex to make a person feel good about themselves. Like they've never done anything gauche or made a faux pas. It must be nice for them to be so perfect and live in a glass house.
For that matter, you probably saved your piggy's life by popping that mondo zit! It could have gotten infected or something.... (yes, I have a zit popping fixation myself, but you were really descriptive on that pig zit. gag LOL)
Man, you would have appreciated the time one of my relative's popped a HUGE cyst on her face. I was standing right next to her at the time and leaned back because I knew it was going to blow. It did! Big time! All over the wall, mirror and light fixture. I'm still disgusted by the thought of it 10 years later. LOL In a revering kind of way...
some people did, some people didn't. It's their choice.

If this helps...I know people who know people (sm)
who can make people disappear.
Not really--I'd be lyin' if I said I never thought such things though! ;-)
IME, people don't feel sorry for fat people either
They actually have less sympathy than they do for people who have substance abuse, IME.
At any rate, I do feel sorry for Britney but the safety of her children should be everyone's first priority, then her safety. It would seem to me that all these hangers-on she has are jeopardizing that safety. It's all just very sad.
Some people just look at me
like I am crazy. You should see the looks I get when she rides on my shoulder in the car. Most people associate rats with dirty animals, etc. They are just like a hamster, only very smart animals. Plus they don't bite like hamsters or try and get away from you. They want to be around you. They are very loyal and love attention. She's my baby.
Unfortunately, she has a cyst growing under her arm now though. She is getting old, and I know her time is coming. :(
OMG! You people are bad, bad, bad!!! I'm going to
!
For me, over 25 people to buy for......
including mine and my husband's immediate families we see separately Christmas eve and Christmas day. We also visit grandparents, aunts, cousins, etc. a week later. We don't have kids yet so still spend a few hundred on each other. It is probably closer to 1500 combined for us.
What about NJ? People here act like
they're the best beaches in the world and I can assure you they are NOT. LBI is the cute nickname now given to Long Beach Island which is a dump as are most NJ beaches and everyone acts like it's the Hamptons or something. Been to NC outer banks and loved it. No comparison.
I think there need to be more people...
in the world like you! You are doing a wonderful thing and are a shining example to your children!
Pet (Dog in particular) people -
I have a Lab/Pit mix, probably 8 or 9 years old, who has a terrible problem with itching and scratching all over. I am hoping someone on this site has a solution for us.
I will tell you what we have tried that has not worked.
Benadryl has not worked. Seemed to help initially but stopped it and she shows no change.
Changing her food has not worked. Have tried all kinds of food, wheat free, have not helped.
Adding oil to her food, 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil twice a day, has not helped. Seemed to help initially but she went back to scratching.
Getting her groomed with dry skin shampoo/conditioner has not helped.
What DID help was steroid injection and prednisone pills on a tapering dose. But once the dose was tapered down, she started scratching some. I dont want her on steroids indefinitely. PLUS, the steroids made her very very aggressive and being part pitbull, that was not a good thing.
When it gets to the point that she and I are both waking up multiple times during the night, I have to go back to steroids. Before I do that, I wonder if anyone reading this has another remedy we could try before going to steroid route.
We also have a cat and I am beginning to think she may be allergic to the cat. Do you think this is possible? My vet technician told me it is possible but it would involve costly allergy testing and injections if it proves positive. Would like opinions from others before I take her for allergy testing.
Any info anyone could provide would sure be appreciated, not only by me but by my best friend who is suffering with this.
Thank you!
um, a lot of people don't go to the, uh, gym.

I know 5 people who have had this...sm
1 has kept the weight they lost off.
2 had major complications after the surgery and 1 almost died - he was healthy before surgery.
4 lost weight but have regained most if not all of it. You can restretch the stomach back out by eating too much.
I like those too - I know a lot of people don't :-)

Yes, but LL should have people to look out for her
be watched 24/7, but LL could be and should be. She should be protected and anyone with any interest in this girl, either for financial or other, such as her mother, should be helping her better than this.
IMO there is no excuse for this. Maybe I am being harsh, but give me a break already with these celebs.
Just like with people
Recovering from surgery (procedures done with anesthesia) when they're older is harder for them, and you have to be super careful that they don't have any conditions that could be worsened by the medications. Please try everything you can before getting them declawed. I'm lucky, my cats love their scratch posts, but they also love picking at the carpet. I just buy rugs and stick them all over the place!
Those people should have given you (sm)
thank you notes BUT, when you give you have to give with a free and willing heart and not expect anything in return - even a thank you - because you will only get bitter waiting. Only give when you really want to and feel the need to and you will feel better about it I think.
re: people
Just me,
The Bible says in Jeremiah 17:9:
"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; Who can know it?"
It is our sin nature to commit sin and we're all born with it. I don't know what the percentage of sexual sin is, but I do know that it is getting more and more prevalent and has been around since bible days because we are all born sinners and we all need Jesus to save us. That doesn't mean that after we accept Jesus we stop sinning, but are more likely to be faithful when we know the Lord.
God bless!
Jan
