In Reply to: I meant the indians, silly nm - Bunion
With so much tabloid stuff being talked about and this reporter trying to find out this or that from anyone and everyone, I though you were talking about us. India didn't even come into mind.
And I'm sorry but as much as I loved Michael Jackson and his music (even though he had his problems) I'm getting tired of the coverage. Yesterday for 4 hours solid all it was, was MJ, MJ, MJ, MJ....no other news. Nothing about Farah Fawcet either. Not even one mention of her in four hours. Just MJ. This is the same guy that all these reporters/journalists were trying to crucify for his "wrong doings", and now they are all acting as though they cared so much about him.

don't be silly....no you are not
You just don't have the same likes and dislikes. I grumble about my inlaws to my husband occasionally, but I am also very grateful. So many people just do not get along with family. I feel blessed and can live with an ugly outfit now and then :)
Boy, she sounds like a collecting fool =)
Okay silly, I am sure you can say
Moo goo gai pan!
That's silly.
They have a giant house (without a mortgage) and lots of room to roam in rural Arkansas. The world is plenty big enough for the Duggars. They are a self-sufficient family complete with a loving mom and dad - still married and in love. How often do you see that nowadays? I think it is extraordinary and beautiful. God bless them.
I'm in a silly mood so......here goes.....
CORN!!!
Silly mood....
CORN AND MASHED POTATOES...... HAHAHAHAHA LOL (Thanks for taking the time to make me smile this a.m.)!!!!!!! 
Very silly question - I know but have to ask (sm)
Did you cry when you knew divorce was looming, even though you knew it was for your own good? Did you have any doubts wondering if you really could have made a difference and "fixed" it? I am a "fixer". If something is wrong, I have to make it right. I feel like I can't fix this and it drives me crazy! To comply with what he wants me to do wouldn't fix it and wouldn't make me happy. And I have no control over how he feels, so I can't fix that either.
not a silly question at all....sm
Nope to all...I had a huge psychological background and while it took quite awhile to figure out he WAS (still is) a passive-aggressive - I know/knew far too much about those types of people and you try to *fix* for so long to NO AVAIL. I don't believe passive-aggressives want help and while some seek out help - many many many more do not.
I was saddened that this *idea* didn't work, of marriage - and my child was 9.....that was a huge concern....but I remembered something my mother said...may she R.I.P....said it was better to raise a child in a happy divorced home than a miserably married one. I tend to agree. My child adjusted rather rapidly I thought - only concern for child was *other kids in school* but child realized immediately (and very unfortunately that it is this way) that every other chair in the classroom was a child of divorce.
We did try therapy and I watched him lie to therapist and try to manipulate therapist...some of these types are very insecure and even feel threatened when you DO lose weight, due to their own insecurities. You sound young - I did it at 42 (divorced) and never looked back and push the child into *developing a relationship with the father* (we do live in same state, it's a good thing I think)
I hope this info helps.....I know that every time I broke up with a man, I regained my self-esteem and today I will not compromise that....ever_again!
best of luck :)
p.s. 5 years postdivorce, I lost and kept off to this day 50 pounds!!! Dumped the weight (him), then dumped my own weight and really like the person I've become all these decades :)
SILLY STRING
How does the silly string detect trip wires and why did she need approval and from whom did she need approval?? Both of my sons ages 26 and 20 are currently in Iraq with the U.S. Army (oldest one drives a tank and the youngest one is an Army Scout and goes out on missions driving a humvee looking for the enemy) I would be very interested to know the answer to this.
my silly typo
I said the doctor dictated "The patient was placed in a sling, no make that splint" and I typed "spling". Just thought it was silly and gave myself a chuckle, that's all.
I think fussing over a name is silly.
I grew up in a family where everyone had about five or six nicknames each. We answered to anything anyone called us. In fact, it was a great compliment to be "tagged" with a special name that was only used between two people. My dad called me "Abraham" all of my life. I have no idea why he'd call his only daughter Abraham. Never questioned him on it, but it was a special tag he and he alone had for me.
So, if your friend has changed his name, and for the past 10 years other people have called him by the new name, that's great. But between he and his family, his name is his name. They might even feel a bit rejected since he changed the name he was known by within his family. Their feelings are just as valid as his.
I don't understand the way the word "respect" is tossed around these days. His family does not "respect" his new name? Must people agree with everything another person does in order to respect him? Respect and agree are two different things. Maybe his family think that he does not respect them since he wanted to throw off the name he was known by in his family?
Was this gotten off some silly conservative

Silly gifts....
My hubby tries! He got me 2 pair of socks and a pair of slippers! He did not read the package the socks came in....They were for foot odor! Haha I won't let him live this one down for a while! He made up for that with an iPod docking station though! As far as food, I am sooooo stuffed I cannot eat another thing. I am still playing with my kids' toys. The toys out now are so much better than the ones we had growing up!
Maybe this sounds silly, but have you
tried leaving the TV on. MA parents dog got so addicted to animal planet she became a couch potato. She had a doggy door and used love to go outside but when the TV was on didn't seem to budge. She put on a lot of weight and the vets solution was turn off the TV. It worked.
CST vs EST HELP! silly question
If I have something to do at 2 PM CST, and I'm in EST, what time do I have to do it? I just can't seem to get the numbers straight....
This is silly to admit, but...
I'm hooked on Guitar Hero III! My husband kept telling me wanted to buy so we could try and I kept resisting. Well, it went on sale at K-Mart, so I gave in, and to my dismay...I'm hooked. I just turned 36 and I'm playing that darned game like I was a kid. My husband loves it and so does my daughter. Strange family activity, but hey, it works.
My scarecrow ... and my silly dog story
This was so cute that I just had to share it. You really have to know this dog who we get a great laugh at because he is a genuine "klutz"! He actually falls over his own feet! I cleaned out the flower beds of things that were done for the season, put up my fall decorator flags, and all that stuff, and in the midst I put up my little scarecrow that you can find at the local Dollar General stores. Sunday morning right after I got up, I heard dogs barking. We live in a very rural area and no leash laws here. Our road is a dead end so it is not heavily traveled. I looked out the front window and saw the usual collection of neighborhood dogs but they weren't barking. I went to the front door -- and there was Mr. Whiskers (our "klutzy" dog)-- barking at the scarecrow and simply petrified of the thing. Another great laugh from this dog. He is always doing something to amuse us -- except when he insists on getting the paper out of the box every single time it comes - then GRRRRR!!!!!
How do silly rumors get started? sm
To make a sort of long story short...I picked my daughter up from school yesterday right before her last class of the day. She had no idea I was picking her up early. (she missed school earlier in the week due to strep and had to work last night so I wanted to give her a little extra time to get her make-up work done. She has art 7th so I knew that would not be anything major to miss. Anyway, I saw one of my son's friends while I was waiting for my daughter. We didn't get to speak cause they were changing classes and she was in the middle of a group of kids. After school during play rehearsal she told my son that she saw me and told him I had to get my daughter early becuase she had cut her hand. Another friend then chimed in that it was bleeding really bad. They were totally serious. These are good girls and I don't think they thought they were lying or just making a joke. They really believed this. I have no idea where they got their info and there is absolutely no truth to it what-so-ever. Honestly I think this is funny. I am not upset at all...just wondering how rumors get started and how they grow and grow and grow.
Never watched it in the first place because it just seemed silly.
Now that I hear about it, I'm glad I never wasted my time on it or any of the other celebrity and/or talent type shows. I've been on a long hiatus from t.v. watching. I'm just waiting for Lost to return this winter.
You know I know that sounds silly to a lot of us women (sm)
but the majority of men would at least have that cross their mind when paddling a teenage girl who is not related to them - seriously. And someone in authority who wants to paddle students - I think that's just scary. A few years ago I would have disagreed but it is reality.
My 8-year-old still sings and does silly
things when he is alone. I love listening to him, it warms my heart. My 13 and 12-year-old are past that stage so I am definitely hanging onto this!! He still likes it when I wash his toes for him and does "this little piggy", or "this little snowflake," depending on the season!!! He still comes up to me and hugs me and says I love you mom. Yea . . . hang onto that and never forget those sounds.
Just a silly story about canning
When my brother and I were growing up we did not have a meal at home without applesauce. (He and I are both still a little that way) My mother decided to make homemade applesacue and can it to save money. Well canned applesauce certainly doesn't taste like White House. We hated it but we learned to love it. When we ate it all we begged for more but my mom hated the process of making it and canning it so much she refused to make anymore. When then had to go back to White House and it took forever before we learned to like it again. LOL!
No it isn't silly to miss your dogs so much...sm
I would be lost without my babies.
I meant the indians, silly nm

not dumb, stuff happens, silly dilly *lol*
You silly bunny, oh course you can't make fish
its already made. Ha, ha!! I just had to do that after all these threads that have gone on and on and on. We will next be handing out boxing gloves.
You are probably right, and all the silly girls are voting for Blake...
who by the way is no prize, lol. Raise the bar girls! He's a short little creep. Looks like a young Sean Penn, sort of, with that homely face. lol Can you tell I don't like him at all? lol
News about silly string to soldiers
in Iraq. A NJ mom has gotten the approval to send silly string to troops that would help detect hidden trip wires that they cannot see otherwise. Who would have thunk it.
I was the originally poster about silly string
what I can remember from the news report was that the silly string is an aerosol can and she was not able to ship it out, but finally someone offered to to help her ship it. I am sure it will be on the news as this just happened within the past few days.
Silly Girl shouldn't have to treat her
husband like a dog or a child. After all, she is his wife, not his mother. If she wants a pet, she can go to the animal shelter and get a dog. She married a man and he needs to act like one. It sounds like she gives and gives, and he takes. I think Silly Girl should start taking care of herself for a change.
Now, that's just silly. Those are types of animals that can be harmful. Big difference.

I guess by the time anyone reads this, they'll be up! Silly question! nm

How do you feel about toddlers being taught to call their private parts
a v*gina and a peni$ ? Just wondering
You should call....sm
an attorney that deals with bankruptcies and ask them what you can do in this situation and they should be able to help you for a minimal cost.
In most states, if your husband's name is not on the credit card account they cannot go after his credit or try to force him to pay your bill... and vice versa.
For a reality check - the credit card company can seize your bank account and incoming deposits to one, force your employer/clients to turn over money designated for you to them for the debt. If you don't present some sort of offer to pay them a reasonable amount every month then they may choose to do the above things to you and legally can. However, if you can show the courts you can pay "x" a month and the judge thinks it's OK then they wouldn't be able to garnish any monies due to you.
Since you mentioned that you only work part-time, they'll probably suggest that you take on a full-time job to pay this debt.
Call them
Your best bet is to call and tell them what your situation is, that you want to work out a solution with them. Even if you have to refinance with them to get payments lower to a level you can afford, it will be worth it - don't default if you can help it. Nowadays, it can raise your car insurance rates, affect new employment opportunities, etc.
Besides, paying it back is the right thing to do. It will let you keep your self respect.
My dog does it too..but we call them
"kitty biscuits," LOL. Either way it's gross. He's been doing it forever, and we can't seem to break him of this habit. 
call
I would definitely call them as well. Had this happen and reversed as well. I know there is one cc company that refuses to do that and it happens to be Discover. Many other companies have reversed this for me. Please call and say you thought you paid it off so whats this!
call that b*tch!!
just kidding! :) This is such normal behavior for teenagers, I always told my girls that I coached that college is completely different than high school and there would be MANY changes, no matter how "in love" they thought they were... It is a sad reality, and unfortunately I am not a mom yet but know that when I am I will be dealing with this. I think the only thing you can tell him is the old saying "time heals all wounds" although it doesnot SEEM like he will EVER get over it by the way he is feeling right now, promise him he will. there are better things out there and everything happens for a reason!!! And you said they haven't officially "broken up" yet... you know what's coming obviously... and this is in no way a way to treat someone you love. She is just trying to get out of it easy. good luck, heartbreak is hard. I'm 27 and still go through it :)
Call the guy and ask nm
x
Thanks .. will just call them and see
if I can remove some of the extra charges and go forward. I did not owe much of anything to anyone and then changed jobs and the fun began! I really don't have that much faith in a third party and I learned that from transcription!
sorry- not what I would call fun either
If I get the chance mine will have a fun time at my house!
Can I just call them?
a
Just call me
 Simon!!
Call someone now.
I went through the same situation with my father for 8 years (bedridden, dementia, strokes, etc.) and grandfather during those same 8 years and 1 year after that. I got help from my doctor, general practitioner. She is a good listener and knew exactly the direction to guide me for help. I was neglecting my health while taking care of others. I remember one time taking my grandfather to a doctor appointment and asked them to check my blood pressure. It was extremely high and they did not want to let me leave the office. I had to sign a waiver stating that I knew the risks but I also promised to see my physician, which I did immediately. I am now on medications for hypertension, hypothyroidism, depression, and cholesterol. Please take care of yourself now.
I would call.
They might be waiting to see what applicants show a true interest in the job. Doesn't hurt to have your name out there to be noticed and remembered...better than being lost in the shuffle. I wouldn't call again after that though.
God says to call sin for what it is.
Please call someone!
Call your local suicide prevention hotline. Even if you are not suicidal at the moment, with all that is going on in your life, that could change at any moment. At the very least they will point you to some resources that will help you. The most difficult thing to do is ask for help, but you really need to. If you don't want to call the hotline, try your local United Way office, they have many solutions that could possibly help you through the emergency until you can get back on your feet. You are in my heart and in my prayers. Reach out and let someone help you... please....
And what do you call yourself in
a marriage where the love is gone, the happiness is gone and you want out? I call it loneliness. I do not need a man to make me happy or to take care of me. My life is very happy because I got out of a loveless marriage.
Your statement makes no sense to be but then again, I am very secure in myself.
and they call that...
insurance fraud. If ever found out that you have withheld information, they will cancel your policy anyway. They are like the IRS. They have ways of finding things out. They can check your prescription records and find that docs name if he prescribed something. Once they find out a doc's name, that's it. Sorry to keep contradicting you, but insurance companies are ruthless. They want your money, but they don't want to pay out. If they find just one thing that was concealed from them, that's it. It's all over.
ok, well whatever you want to call him...but I think sm
feeling up a 8 or 9 year old and a 12 or 13 year old is a form of molestation. My mother's stepfather didn't actually rape her until she was 15. But he felt her up from the time he married her mother, when she was 7. My stepfather never did anything like that to me at all. But my creepy neighbor did. He spent a lot of time helping me learn to walk on my hands when I was 11 or 12 - I realized later it was so he could look up my shorts and so when my shirt would flop up, he could see my barely growing boobies. He moved away. Five years later he showed up at my house acting like a crazy maniac, in love with me. they get obsessed with young girls. Call him a scumbag, a pervert, a molester, or whatever. It's wrong.
Call CPS. Everybody knows they
do a terrific job and always show good judgment. Wrong. Oftentimes they yank kids out of stable homes because the enlightened and politically correct think that spanking is barbaric, make a quick phone call, and loving parents who are trying to discipline their children get sent to jail. Beating is one thing and spanking is another. I very much doubt that if the kid pulls the kind of antics you have described that his father is beating him. Also, if the father was beating him, do you think he would have chosen "the stick" over losing hockey? You most probably don't know what you are talking about and you should just butt out. Different people parent differently. Some kids need spanked, some don't. Be thankful that your kid has a disposition such that it is not required. Mind your own business unless you know he is being ABUSED. The trouble you cause could be not easily undone.
Think a bit before you call CPS. You might want
to ask the kid exactly what the "stick" is before you jump to conclusions. He picked it, maybe he can handle it.
My daughter has some friends who have a son. The child, while very young, had a medical condition that was hard to diagnose, resulted in bruising of the body, some failure to thrive, etc. A neighbor thought the child was being abused, called the authorities and because at the time (10 years ago) the couple wasn't as responsible as they are now (some partying, not that great housekeeping) the child was taken away because of neglect. He and his wife were put in jail; once the other prisoners found out why he was in there they literally beat him to a pulp for supposed child abuse. He has plates in his head and face and is on permanent disability. Come to find out the child had some medical condition that was so very rare and caused the bruising and FTT. After about 6 months of a living h*ll, the authorities apologized to this guy and his wife and their child was given back to them.
Get as many facts as you can before making that call.
