Your kitty has spunk. Likes hot sauce, likes squirt gun.
He really actually sounds fun, in spite of all the trouble he makes. Seems like perhaps it would be worth it to go to the dollar store or dollar general and perhaps get him his own tree?
My 15 yo son likes to
grab the car keys and start the car if we are headed somewhere while I'm still putting on my shoes/coat or whatever. Then when I'm walking around the front of the car to get in, he hits the horn, and of course I jump a mile becaue I'm usually deep in thought. He thinks it's hysterical. He's taken ten years off my life!
My son likes...
Pac Sun (sp?), we have one here in our local mall. We live in the midwest. Every time we go shopping, it seems to be the only place he wants to go. I also shop Kohl's, too, usually some really great sales.
There's another cat, but she LIKES it. Plus she
.
Try taking away something she likes!
I know it sounds harsh, but if you take away something she likes and not give her that until she finally is a "big girl", then she may want to go potty. The other thing, I know how gross this is, but include her in your "potty time", and she may realize "Wow, Mom is a big girl, and I want to be like Mom! It is a tough call, but my daughter went through the same thing. I always got the "I'm too busy!" So, I began asking her all of the time, and finally she went because she didn't want me to ask her especially in front of her brother. She was about 4 1/2! Good luck!
I'm glad someone else likes
Keanu besides me. Nobody I know understands why I find him so attractive. Don't know, something about him.
Why would anyone think the south only likes
country?? Ugh. I have lived here all my life and I cannot stand it. My tastes are more opera, beautiful love sounds, Gershwin. I could not tell you 1 name of a country song. Please do not group us all together. Folks just making assumptions - again.
Heehee- my cat likes to
eat one piece of cat food at a time. She will fish one piece out of the bowl with her paw onto the floor and then eat it, and then fish out another piece. Its quite facinating.
And it comes down to a lot more than what a person likes and does not s/m
like. We are talking being subjected to breathing those toxins which create a life-threatening environment. I hope I live long enough to not have to say NONSMOKING in a restaurant. It is unthinkable that we are subjected to this in 2007. I feel for you, I really do. 
Whether or not she likes him is a different story
I know sometimes more being more physical can mean that, but put it this way:
If a wife did that to her husband with a knife, would it be because she likes him?
No, but my psychiatrist likes that one. (sm)
Prozac wasn't good for me, and Wellbutrin sounded better to me. But my depression turned out to be more situational, so changing my situation seems to be the cure.
but that is her opinion too - obviously she likes them - nm

Since he likes people food and will eat that--sm
as opposed to some of the commercial cat foods out there, which in my opinion, are not all that beneficial either what with all the by products, etc. continue to give him the chicken and turkey. I would suggest the chicken raised without hormones and antibiotics though. He is a very smart kitty, preferring natural food (poultry) to that of what is forced upon us by the cat food producers, which have more grain than they do nourishing food. But that is just my opinion. good luck to you with your vacation for 3 weeks. Is the kitty going with you???
maybe husband just likes 'em
however, not my cuppa tea....
Our cat likes to lick anything with feathers and - sm
plastic bags (like the supermarket kind), guess is it some weird maternal instinct thing. Our lab will eat flowers on command, kids taught her to eat the dandilions in the yard, too weird.
You are most welcome! Glad kitty likes the nip!
Sometimes it works to keep them distracted, sometimes not...but we gotta try, right?!
I had leather furniture and at one point 3 cats...not a single one of them bothered with it but my fugly fabric recliner? SHREDDED. They seemed to take personal pleasure in getting their claws stuck in it and making it rock when they tried to unstick themselves. Tools. I miss that ugly chair too!
My dog likes wierd stuff too, but...
My dal loves bananas and her favorite treat is icecubes. She always comes running when you open the freezer door. You do have to be careful, because there are a lot of things that are toxic to dogs. I saw a list on line and I was really surprised by some of the stuff on there. I wish I had copied it or bookmarked it. If anyone has it, it would be helpful for dog owners if they could post it here. Some of the stuff on there were things I would not have a problem letting my dog eat.
Maybe that's his story. GF likes to roll around in

How your likes changed much over the years?
It depends on what age range, 15-20, 21-25, 26-30 etc... like every five years, in regards to anything.
I wouldn't worry - I think he just likes the scent. (sm)
At least you know that when you've taken the same bubble bath or used the same soap, that he like how you smell!
;)
I'm a "healthy gal" as a friend of mine likes to say
Just a bit over 200 pounds now, which I never thought would happen to me. I was always able to hover around 150 until I hit my mid 30s and then I just packed it on like a bear going into hybernation. I started WW in April and lost most of those 11 pounds right away. Then vacation came along and I just got out of the habit. I KNOW the program works. My grandmother did it in the 1970s and was lifetime member until the day she died. You just have to make up your mind it's time to get serious. I'm convinced no diet or lifestyle change will stick unless you're ready to commit 100%. I'm back on track again and hope to be in Onderland (below 200, as it is called on the WW chat boards) very quickly.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Like I said, it isn't easy.
my hubby always likes Best Buy gift cards,
that way he can get what music he wants, or concert DVDs, or whatever they have there (that's what everyone got him for Christmas and he was in "hog heaven").
That's a good one! EvaEv likes to correct
her own right!. Man, I would feel like a complete a** right about now!
Well, it kinda means she likes girls.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Hah! Someone had to make that joke, darn it. :-)
You know, when you have anything achieved, someone just likes to try and bust your bubble here
I went on originally saying about what my home owner's association does not accept, including clothes lines, animals roaming loose, vegetable gardens, etc. and I said I love it here. Immediately what returned was a statement about people looking down their nose at you implying that is what I do. Someone else making statement about rural living-my present home is very much that with woods close by and deer roam through my yard sometimes. I, like loads of other transcriptionists, work as loners and tend to be that way. I am no different and love my privacy here and that is what is afforded me. One of the homes I sold was in a big city and the other was lake front which was an inheritance. People seem to like to run down what others are able to achieve. I worked hard, very hard for most that I have had and it has taken years for me to be able to get to a point where I basically do not have to worry about every cent that I spend. I have always been free with my money trying to help out others and it has come back tenfold to me. I now rescue animals because of my love for them. I never was one to be jealous of others but apparently lots I run into on this forum don’t feel the same. Hope you can enjoy the rest of your coffee.
Likes to show off in front of the boys.

My mom, a southern born girl, likes her crumbled

he did say you can move and maybe he'll find a woman who likes his life.

Bigger issue - a 16 year old living withi a 29 year old and liability
Are you still not responsible for him until he is 18, how can he tell you where he will live? Unless he emancipates himself and he does something wrong, can they go against you since you are his mother and legally responsible for him? I worry more about him living with a 29 year old sister rather than returning a house key to me that is a bigger issue.
My 14-year-old is going to be a mother-in-law (so funny) if you google it and 11-year-old daughter

Won $2,000 on slot machine on New Year's Eve. What a way to start the year. nm

Set my budget a year in advance, save all year and

What a difference a year makes! Last year, sm
we had the same problem. Fines everywhere for watering.
Paid $60,000 on principal last year and this year
planning on another $30,000 after my taxes paid for the year. We are getting our house paid down very quickly.
55-year old woman has birthday sex with 12-year old
DAYTON - Gloria Murphy gave children celebrating her 55th birthday alcohol and then had sex with a 12-year-old boy at the party on Thursday, Jan. 29, according to police.
The boy got into Murphy’s bed at 5440 Rawlings Drive, where the married woman had sex with her adolescent neighbor, according to police and Montgomery County prosecutors.
Two of the children at the party ran home at about 6 a.m. Jan. 30 and told a parent they saw the boy and woman having sex, according to 911 audio.
The parent then called police at about 6:15 a.m., according to a police report and 911 audio.
Murphy did not force the boy to have sex, but since he is younger than 13, it is considered rape, Lt. Patrick Welsh said. No other children were involved in the sexual encounter, but some other children at the party consumed alcohol, according to police.
A 17-year-old would have the same goals as a 20 year old (sm)
Only the 20 year old is hopefully more responsible and based on what you say about his character, would be a better choice than someone her own age.
I have a 9-year-old son that sounds just like your 10 year old...
Lately he has been so negative about everything...trying to make him have a good summer and whenever I take him somewhere, he is just a brat when we get home...I think they are called tweens at this age...not quite teenagers but have the attitude like one---LOL
We skipped it entirely last year, and THIS year?
This 40-year-old got dumped for a 30-year-old

This year will be our 35th year
The first couple years it was literally 5 or 6 times a day every day (more on the weekends). Over time it gradually slowed down (once a day) and over the past few years its been 2 or 3 times a week. Not sure that is average or not. There were times were I felt it was too much and him not enough, then there were times where I wanted it more and he didn't. Guess everyone goes through a phase. I guess because of how long we've been together, now it's just comfortable - nothing exciting about it. Just a routine. I have to make it exciting in my mind and pretend I'm someone else.
I don't know what it is, but you are correct...after awhile the lust and infatuation wears off and you get in a routine. I guess for us it was that we really didn't know each other when we married (we dated for 3 weeks then eloped). Once I got to know him it was too late. Now 35 years later it is just comfort (and amazingly we never once used birth control and never had any kids). My mom still tells me she's amazed at the frequency of our encounters that not even once did I even have a "close call" with getting pregnant.
But 35 years once or twice a week and 3 or 4 times on weekends. Not sure if that is normal.
My 7-year-old dog is very ill.
One of my two huskies started getting sick Saturday or Sunday. Her symptoms suggest poisoning or a brain tumor. She has always been sensitive to airborn allergens. Her eyes itch terribly if she the dog bed has cedar, and we avoid foods with wheat or corn or too many carbs, trying to keep her healthy. Anyway, it seems the slip cover I put on the dogs' chair may have been treated with something like formaldehyde and she is reacting to that. But I removed it when I started suspecting it on Monday night, and left the window open all night. She seems to get better and then gets worse, even though I'm not letting her back up on that chair. We have ordered an air filter for the living room. But symptoms wax and wane, and they are mostly neurological: squints eyes, acts like she can't see, walks in circles, breathing is slowed, she's very lethargic, presses her head on me for comfort (she's done this for years, but now I read head-pressing is a neurological sign), drooling, forgets to to outside to urinate and has incontience in the house.
Please pray that the Creator has mercy and heals her for us. Misha is sweet.
We are getting my son the PS2 this year,
and that in itself is around $140, around $40 for his leggo set (on sale at that). It adds up.
How about over $500 this year
for your tax return? That is through one of the biggest places we have, not some fly-by-night. Mine are more in depth because of rental, selling a home this past year and my working from home but this year am getting back over $6,000.00 but guess what? I am always just glad to get back any amount rather than paying!!
I go through it every year, though last year - sm
they did surprise me after saying it was delayed a month, I ended up getting it about 10 days later. When it has been delayed it has taken about 5 weeks. The website should give you a date of when to expect it, and that is generally right on the money. As for the date, contact the courts and have him arrested, maybe jail will teach him to pay on time. Good luck.
This is such a bad year
that my allergies are acting up, and I've had very little trouble for the past 10 years or so. Interestingly, my allergies decreased to near nothing after I was on an antifungal medication for an extended period. There are theories that all the increased allergies and asthma are related to they heavy-duty antibiotics we are able to use now for bacterial infections. Maybe these are messing up our airway flora and increasing problems with allergies?
When you say you've been on nasal sprays, what about the asthma ones, like albuterol nad Atrovent? That's what they had to put my sister on.
Hope you get some relief. Allergies are miserable.
What year is your car? sm
My husband works at an auto parts store, and I'll ask him what he thinks, but I think he needs to know the year.
My 17-year-old DD
has been wearing a size 10 or 10 1/2 ladies for the last 3 years. She is 5Ǝ" or 5Ə". My 20-year-old DS wears a 12 mens and has since high school. I wear an 8 or 9 and my hubby only wears an 8. We have no idea where these kids get their height or those feet! Our 15-year-old DS is following in their footsteps, excuse the pun, as well. He is in a 10 mens sneaker and already a head taller than my 5ƌ". Unbelievable. 
I did this last year
If it's the one I think it is, my friend send it to my last year, and I almost had heart failure. I screamed so loud I thought I'd wake up the house. I also had the sound on really loud and never again! LOL
6-year-old
Country MT, you are not harming your son. I am almost 52 yo, have a great niece on weekends, 2-1/2 yo. It is the only stability she gets. If she wants to sleep with us until she is 15 it will be okay! Her only requests as she comes in the door are "I want my bottle, blankie and rock-a-bye." She lives in a horribly unstable household and we are like heaven on earth to her. Before anyone blasts me, I have called DSFS - they are short on foster parents, so no help there. Her mom is too selfish to let us keep her all the time, is pregnant with her 4th. We also keep the 14-month-old baby boy one night during the week. New baby is due 12/18. Baby boy prefers the crib unless he is suffering with teething. My mom has an ongoing fit about me giving Sarah a bottle at all. Sarah drinks the bottle while we rock, hands it to me when finished and life goes on. Sleeping with us comes from her being sick as a tiny infant and not sleeping much at all. I slept with my grandparents when little and grew up to get married, have 2 kids, and am not sick or perverted. Listen to your heart, not negative people. Your son will love you for it forever.
I was there this year, last year, the year
before, etc. etc. From what I see in the casino as you walk in, the place is just below where I would stay, say the smoke filled place versus to I personally saw a person walking into the Bellagio being asked to put his cigarette out by security. I like that. The Flamingo is 1 of the older places - the location is good but it is right across from Cesear's and catty-corner to the Bellagio so I just love staying in a little classy place.
Doing it again either New Year's Day or New Year's Eve
:)
