There is an algorithmic formula for how many responses to a post before the conversation deteriorates. So next time you feel free to be me, realize you were just sucked in to a math equation

LMAO! Barbie rides a bottle rocket!
 THAT is something I would love to see!
There is a lot more to it than just envy...

I kind of envy you
I know that is really cold, but at least winter is setting in when the holidays come. Here in Florida, even if it is cool in the morning by 10 a.m. you are sweating. It is always hard to get in the holiday spirit when you can't wear your Christmas sweater because you will overheat. Of course, I am from NY too, so I guess I associate snow with Christmas, not the beach. LOL.
IPod envy
It kills me, but I cannot justify spending the $$ on an IPod when my curtains are blowing in the wind through my 30-year-old rattling windows and other miscellaneous home improvements that need to be done. Yup, the CD player is big and awkward and it eats batteries. I am waiting for my son to get whatever new and improved IPod exists and then he can give me his old outdated one!
Glad you like the name!
Gosh how I envy you.

I envy all of you. Our gas is $2.34 yesterday. PA
Live in a small town, but 11 miles away in another county, it was $1.48 last week. The GS around here are ripping us off and there's not a thing we can do about it.
I don't like Science Diet
either. I try to read the ingredients on pet foods when deciding which ones to buy, and it seems like Science Diet is full of by-products and useless stuff. So why when I go to the vets does he prescribe my cat Science Diet for UTI?? Do they not know what foods are good and which ones aren't. And I'm sure if I asked the vet which food to put my new puppy on, he would probably say Science Diet. I've been buying Royal Canin for my dogs, but now with the recall, don't know if I trust them either.
If she has had all the math and science
prerequisites, it doesn't matter what grade she is in when she takes it. My son took it in 10th grade with the seniors, but was a couple years ahead of his grade in math and science classes. His teacher also just gave them the work,and they were pretty much on their own. My son reads math and physics books for fun, so he was all right, but he had some seniors asking him for help throughout the year.
If this is her first year of high school, that's probably stressing her out too. She may want to wait till next year or later to take it until she is more comfortable with the high school routine.
we still have it but i think it's now called "consumer science"
used to be economics now it's science - wow
i'm only down on home ec because a long time ago i worked with a former home ec teacher who somehow lost her job as a teacher and she was a total b*tch
My mom donated her body to science - sm
so we had nothing. She did not want us to do anything. We did mail a note to all my parents friends, etc. letting them know she had died, etc. but that was the extent of it. I said "goodbye" to my mom in the hospital morgue. They gave me a very hard time about it and did not want to let me but I insisted, explaining we were not having a funeral, etc. Took them an hour to arrange it once they finally agreed to let me see her. My brother and dad went with me, though I would have rather been alone. My dad already said his goodbyes in the room as did my brother. I drove up 4 hours so I could that night. My other brother did not make it though. His wife I think is the only one that has had a problem with the fact that there was no funeral or memorial service. We all just took things from the house that reminded us of mom and I think that helped. I have my mom's old recliner and I sit in it sometimes and talk to her. Plus when we get together we openly talk about mom and past events, etc., even my dad does despite his re-marriage and I know he is very happy in his marriage. But all in all we have all been fine with it, I think it helps to know my mom hated funerals, was not that religious, and we honored her wishes.
I was an animal science major in college and...
my poultry professor said that fresher eggs are harder to peel. The problem is that you can't tell from the store which the older eggs are because when they expire, they just repackage them with newer dates and send them back out because they only go bad if there is a defect in the shell.
i find the science in the Bible pretty tangible,
ie, that this world is a sphere, suspended in heaven (vs. flat), about the paths/currents under the sea, and more -- these were written WAYYYYYY before 'man' discovered same. Those are tangible facts or science. However, science nowadays isn't necessarily fact -- too much theory purported as science...

You're confusing Scientology with Christian Science Church.sm
The Church of Christ, Scientist, believers do not generally utilize medicine or doctors. This is a completely different entity than the Church of Scientology, which is what the Travoltas belong to. Scientologists use medical drugs when physically ill and also rely on the advice and treatment of medical doctors. But, as Tom Cruise made us all aware, they don't believe in the use of psychotrophic meds.
I posted on this before regarding
confronting parents about their children. This was exactly what I was talking about, the mother took up for her child (as most do now days regardless)and I, for 1, would not anticipate with love, praising, letting him work for you, etc., etc. that this will change him at all. You know what you faced with his mother and I would put some distance between my child and him. When raising my children, if a parent came to me telling me my child had done something wrong, you better believe I would listen and probably believe that person BEFORE my child. The reason is, most times parents are not going to take their time to come and face you directly about a child's behavior. I never ever thought just because they were my children, they were always in the right, never but times have changed. I would not confront, I would not try to change, I would distance.

I have posted this before but not sure if sm
it was this board. I remember the first time Nu-Victoria saw JT when she returned from Italy. It was at the hospital when Brittany's baby was being kidnapped. I saw the sparks flying when she said his name. I thought then they should get together.
I posted this further down sm
Kristen Rose, my daughter's name. My mother, my daughter, and I all share the same middle name "Rose" and my daughter has already said she wants to carry on the tradition. I would like to add my 2 cents about different spellings. It seems that so many people want to change the original spelling of a name just to be different. My name was spelled wrong on my birth certificate "Tereasa" and my mother left it that way. You can never find anything personalized spelled that way. It was always spelled wrong in yearbooks, programs for ballgames, etc. My mother typed my wedding announcement and when the newspaper recieved it they called to see if the spelling was correct. I find it a big hassel. JMO
at least I think it's you they posted to...LOL..nm
I posted below sm
and the read the above post. I agree with most everything but you can certainly work with the child if he will be confused about the name change. Our situation did involve adoption, my little (step)brother was 5 when my father adopted him. Becuase the adoption was not final when he started kindergarten he was taught how to spell and write his original name for the first 4 weeks of school and then it changed. Due to the fact that he never had a father figure and he always wanted a big family (instant older sister and brother) he had no problem with the name change. Depends on so many factors. I feel you will make the right decision for you and your child or else you wouldn't care enough to get other opinsions. Good Luck.
Posted this a while ago and..
only got a couple of responses which were regarding his name and how he should change it. Get past the name and take a look at the clip.
Yes the man has an incredible voice, but it is humbleness and the Cinderella story that brings tears.
Thanks! I will keep you posted! nmx

I posted below sm
that I also bought my dogs from a petstore and that I had no idea how horrible the puppy mills were at the time. I just held one of my dogs today and cried thinking about his mother. I won't even buy bird food (I have 2 birds) from a pet store. My son watched the show with me and did ask where can the pet stores get their dogs from. I honestly don't know. Can they go to private breeders? Sorry if I seem dumb, it truely is ignorance on my part, just like my ignorance about puppy mills until recently.

Enquiring minds want to know....Let us know how things turn out. I hope everything works out well.
How I posted the pic ......... (sm)
I WANT to see 'Tornado Alley' desks! hahahahaha!
I found posting a pic to be really easy. (The photo will work best if it's in jpg. format). (In order to get these instructions right, I've posted a photo I took in Santa Fe recently.)
Assuming you've already taken a pic of your desk, and it's saved in a photo file on your computer, just:
1) After the 'Post Image' box below the subject box of your post on MT Stars, click on 'Click here to Upload Image!'
2) When the next window comes up, click on the 'Browse' button to bring up a list of your computer files.
3) Find your photo (for example, to find mine, I click on Documents, then My Pictures, and then the photo).
4) Click on the photo you've selected, the the name of it will appear in the 'Select Image' box. Click on 'Open'.
5) Click on 'Submit'.
6) The picture will appear, and then click on 'Continue', which should bring you back to the text of your post. Then go ahead and post as usual.
Hope that helps. Show us that MESSY DESK! ;D
That's why I posted
There are girls who are getting sick from this. All I would like is for everyone to research this thoroughly before doing it, and please don't only read the docs articles. Of course they are going to say everyone should have it. Guess who pays them bonuses.
As for the lady who said in GA its required. I'd move out of that state before I let the government tell me what I should or should not have done medically.
Please just don't buy into the hype of it and question, question, question before thinking about it.
PS: (Im the one who posted below that she's
surprise to hear from her this morning that she's coming out to California for the rest of the weekend! Looks like just for once, I'm having a good-kharma day!
Yes, I am the one that posted
about this weeks ago. This cat is a beautiful calico. I need to take a picture of it and upload it sometimes.
when she first posted
her first post said the sister had to move out because he kept coming on to her - so I thought she must have been about 18 or so - but then she said she was young - a child - so why would such a young child be moving out - or even living there in the first place?
I have posted about him but not about this...nm
aa
Oh no, it's still posted..............nm

Yes, I am the same Jan, who posted about
the Gray (Gy), several times.
Yes, anon, in this case, you are right, Gy is a unit of measure. But your explanation that you posted was not so clear.
My explanation was better.
posted this before
I posted before how my son's ex-girlfriend from over a year ago is making his high school dating life non-existent with the girl who asked him to sadie hawkins "changing her mind" at the last minute because of this ex-girlfriend's very persuasive sabotage.
Now he does not want a 16th b-day party because he is afraid she will screw it up by keeping other girls from showing up, etc.
This girl has already moved on and has a new boyfriend, but won't let the revenge thing for my son go.
On the one hand I am relieved that he now knows the earmarks of a psychopath and hopefully will not marry one...ever,
but on the other hand it makes me sick anyone can ruin someones 16th birthday.
Wow! Can't believe you posted this.
For the last few weeks, I've been staggering, running into walls and almost fell down the steps.
I had to go to the hospital today to renew my CICP (a health plan offered to the indigent) and they saw how I was walking and got a wheelchair. On the way back, I managed to walk (barely), but when they saw me coming to get my daughter's car, they told me to sit down and asked if I'd like a glass of water. I said yes. So someone showed up with a glass of water, followed by a nurse with some apple juice, who tried to get me to go to the emergency room. I declined.
She did ask me, though, if I was diabetic, which I'm not (yet). My doc said that once my pancreas is completely destroyed, I can expect to get diabetes.
Another thing: Does your husband find his vision is declining, becoming blurry? (Mine has been and during the same time frame.)Does he seem to lose his train of thought and have trouble concentrating?
Sounds like he might need a full physical because surely doesn't sound right.
Best of luck. It's probably nothing, but a checkup couldn't hurt.

eek sorry if I posted a bad site (m)
I was just googling for jewish actors and saw that site had a list that might be helpful for the OP to find who she was looking for. I did see the statement it was not a hate site and didn't really look at anything else on it.
Did not mean to offend anyone.

I totally agree with you. I found it strange that I go to read another post regarding this matter, and your sentiments are mine exactly. Breastfeeding is not for everyone, and that is why the formula companies have made so many different great canned formula that children can have and thrive. So many children are starved and have problems because breastfeeding is not being done properly. I'm not sure I even like "feeding into" this post, but it needs to be said.
yea, I read that AFTER I posted....s/m
one of the posters put up an ABC link and I read (after I posted) that she did, indeed, check in and check right out over at Eric Clapton's Crossroads rehab place in Antigua.........
she's stupid not to take advantage of this lifesaver and go through rehab............
but it's all about choices, now isn't it?....she has never seemed to be the brightest bulb......eh?
I posted the question because...
some people are not sure how they feel about it, and I think that is the reason we have inadequate laws to keep these criminals behind bars. We need to let our lawmakers know that we want STRICTER SENTENCES for rapists and child molesters. I believe life sentences are in order, but many serve little or NO jail time, and that is an outrage. That is why I posted a link to Oprah.com with a prewritten letter than can be sent to your state rep. demanding sticter laws to keep better tabs on these perverts.
Geez, sorry I posted this...(OP)
Can't even share a bit of someone's good fortune without being flamed...whatta shame! 
Help site probably posted before
Subject: Help site probably posted before
Here is a site that you can spend about 20 seconds a day clicking on that will give to Hungry children, breast cancer researsh, literacy, animals, etc. All you have to do is click on each site and major companies will give money daily. Here is the site http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com and you can go further from there. There are rainforest sites and child health sites for vitamins. Jut please pull it up, bookmark it, and you can contibute every day just with a click. Thanks!!!!
Sorry, late when I posted
but I am talking about plants to grow inside that have some fragrance, nothing that takes a lot of babying because not much of a green thumb here. I have loads of green plants but just would like to have some really nice-smelling ones. At my previous home I had gardenia bush right outside my door and so sweet during the summer. Any ideas?
Just posted the same thing at the top sm
my name has a different spelling and at the age of 39 I am really tired of having to explain the reason for the spelling.
I posted above about losing my mom sm
I remember walking with a couple of friends and complaining about my mom (while she was still alive) and one of the women said to me "I lost my mom and I would give anything to have another day with her". It was several years later before I lost my mom, but oh how those words play in my mind. I will hear the country song "Just one more day" and I have to turn off the radio. I miss her teribly and I personally think that is the way it should be. Just keep all of the wonderful memories. "hugs again"
Truly unbelievable! Keep us posted.
