little bit country, little bit rock and roll Donnie or Marie
!
You rock! Thanks.
Good sprinkler for a noodlehead like me.
Rock On! Same here..
after 20 years of carting my kids, their friends, sports equipment, saddles, and of course helping half the planet move -- my youngest just got his license and I got myself a ragtop (2-seater) Saturn Sky. I may be old and pudgy, but I'm having a BLAST and it's all mine, mine, mine! Enjoy
PUGS ROCK!!! (nm)
.
sheet rock
I have seen this painted and I have also seen people do sheet rock mud over it to smooth the lines. We have paneling that I hate. Bought MIL's house. Hubby loves it. Too dark but in great condition We are just going to put sheet rock on top and go from there.
under rock I suppose...
sorry, just never heard that one before...pardon moi!
Rock of Love
I just got done watching. I'm so glad Lacey is gone. I really like Jes. Most of the other women that were on the show were just too trampy for me. I have the feeling he's going to pick Heather though. I love all the shows you mentioned. How about I Love NY? She's from here in Syracuse. Feel free to email any time to talk about the shows. The same goes for JMR down below.
Now that is very sweet. Rock on, ma!
:)
Better climb under a rock,
or have all the posts been there for years? Nothing new. Liz Taylor stole Eddie Fisher from his wife, then had affair with Richard Burton (who was married)- hmmm guess they were way past their prime (also dead) to make to DWTS- this happened in the 60s and Ingrid Bergman (in the 40s) had twins with a guy she was not married to (married to someone else.) Like I said, better just go to a remote island and be alone for it not to happen.
Schoolhouse Rock
I love those! I want to get them for my 7-year-old son. I learned so much from all of them, especially the preamble to the constitution. Your kids are gonna enjoy them!
Fraggle Rock
I love Fraggle Rock. We got a couple DVDs for my friend and I got some for myself and made the kids watch it. :-)
FYI - Rock Band
We were going to trade in 1 guitar for the rock band set and were told the Rock Band still has a lot of kinks to work out and the sales person advised us to wait until after this Christmas as it will probably be the big thing for Christmas and the problems will be worked out.
I would love to get the 80's one too! I didn't know they had that! My husband was a DJ in highschool and I bet he would love that. Ok, that's now on his xmas list. lol Thanks!
I must live under a rock...
as I did not know that either! Not that there's anything wrong with that 
What rock do you find these kind of men under?...
You are not respected in your marriage. Tell him to go by himself, save his own money and take your kids somewhere YOU want to go while he is gone. Please don't say that other than this he is a wonderful father, good provider, yada,yada...he has no respect for you or your opinion, which cancels out any good attributes, IMHO of course....
Remember Schoolhouse Rock? I just got the 2-set DVD from sm
our local library. My kids are loving it! They are 3 and 5 and 11. All boys. The 3 year old loves it the most.
I can't believe how much I'm learning! I just learned a few things on the song "I'm just a Bill, sitting on Capital Hill!" HAHA
Rock. Bath or shower?

Between a rock and a hard place - HELP!
Okay, back towards the end of last school year some mothers decided to have a coo at the elementary school and take over the PTO for this coming year from the ones that had been running it. Shortly after that, the now ex-pres moved in next to us. The neighbor across the street is now on the "new" PTO. Somehow, they didn't elect a president for the coming year though and they came knocking on my door "oh you'll be great, we'll do all the work, we just need you to run the meetings, etc". Well, I let the principal know that I would and now am regretting it. I have a full-time job plus type part-time at night (switching to just weekends when school starts). My husband is gone during the week so that leaves me to take care of kids, homework, games and practices, etc. I get calls and emails all day long regarding PTO. I thought about just sticking it out for the school year (I do have the flexibility to be off or leave early, come in late from my full time job) because I really want to be more involved in the school since my child is going into the second grade. Well, the final straw was a few nights ago when a bunch of us parents were sitting in our driveways watching the kids playing. It wasn't until after the ex-pres comes outside (she hasn't talked to any of us since all that happened), that the neighbor across the street starts talking PTO stuff at a level that the ex-pres can hear (I never replied to her about anything). My husband went ballistic! We came in the house and he said that was uncalled for, we need to move, and that he's very upset about me taking on the role of president. SO, what do I do now? How do I gracefully back out but not get shunned from being up at the school and helping out with some activities?
The other story with that neighbor across the street that has bugged me this week - everything my child gets (we are not frivilous by any means), she makes sure her kids get the same things, even down to the exact same pair and color or tennis shoes for school, clothes, bicycles and now, the yard ornaments that we have had in our yard, i see she has bought some and are now in her yard also. I cringe now when I see her but I hate to keep my child from playing in the front yard just because her kids are out there (same age). Any ideas on this too???
What a crappy week!!! 
I need room under the rock, I didn't know either.
no msg
Navy Seals ROCK! sm
I am not surprised they were able to accomplish the rescue. Have you seen those shows where they detail what exactly the training they go through entails and you watch people actually going through the training? It is brutal. Those guys who make it to the end are the cream of the crop. Once again our military comes through! I am so happy about the good outcome! 
Reality show fan too! What do you think of Rock of Love?
LOL! And I Love New York from Flavor of Love! Surreal Life. lol. These are the best entertainment these days if you ask me. And there are so many I can't even remember all of them.
Also love Top Chef, America's Top Model, American Idol, etc., and that hair show called Shear Genius with Jacklyn Smith. Hope that comes back.
I had to get something similar to TIVO so I could record all of my shows!!!!
spent NYE playing Rock Band for PS2
a lot of fun though discovered I'm never going to be a drummer (or a singer) :) So I guess I won't quit my day job.
Were you at all aware of the 60s and 70s? That's exactly what the bulk of rock stars WERE doing!
fffff
No fan of either her or Oprah but having said that
I was so surprised when Rachael took on that type of show. She has several shows on Food NW and Oprah probably would have liked to have found her (as in Dr. Phil) but not so, too big a person in her own right before. Books, several shows on Food, well known before Oprah. Oprah played a point in putting her on that show, probably produces the newer show. I understand you are not really into Rachael but she was a talent and had already made it big longgggggggg before Oprah.
Oprah? What would anything she would say
?
No, no Oprah
Never said there was "nothing" either. It's just not what people think it is. Fairy tales are for children and heII was invented by poets, Dante to be specific.
BOO!!
Try Oprah.com
I missed what your issues are, but Oprah has a lot of great resources and seminar-type things on her site.
I know what you are saying. When it comes down to it, we are all alone. Even those who really care can only do so much.
I have been having a rough time pretty much for a couple of years. Sometimes you wonder what it's all about. Don't give up though, you just never know when something might change for the good!
I love an alternative rock band called
Minus the Bear and so does my 15 yo son. 
lol I thought of Brett Michaels and Rock of Love
or whatever his show was called. lol
Adam Sandler, Michael Jordan, The Rock (sm)
How's that for variety? LOL!
My 7th grader is doing the Schoolhouse Rock as a musical this spring! nm

I wrote my local buffalo rock and they told me a
I will look for your Folger's Instant Straight up tomorrow when I go!
You have lost in your election, please go climb back under your rock
My daughter is in finances, owns her own home, goes to college part-time taking extra courses to advance her career. Frankly, my dear, I don’t know what you think but one thing I do know is please leave and go back to the other board- they might like you there. I based MY vote on the man, not the color of his skin but my daughter who is black could not make up her mind. What about that don’t you understand? I told her repubs did not have her back- too many old white folks. Face it, big L for loser.
I would think Dr. Phil & Oprah would have
covered these topics. They might even have that sort of information on their websites. Your mother might believe them over these men. Or undoubtedly Reader's Digest. If one of my parents were acting like this I'd seriously think they were getting something like Alzheimers, losing their good judgement.
it's now cuz Oprah is sponsoring her....BIG $$ now
x
She was also on Oprah yesterday
singing with Kelly Clarkson and Justin Limberlake, promoting her Duets with Rebba, I think that is what it is called, album. Think I will buy it. She is great. Also loved the sitcom, especially her with her ex and Barbara Jean. Very funny.
Just saw a commercial for Oprah about how
to talk to your kids about divorce. I think it said it will be on next Wednesday.
Oprah's BIG GIVE sm
I love that show. I think it is a great reality show that helps others. If you saw it last week do you think Oprah will help the family that was promised money for funeral costs and the guy did not come through for the family. I think so.
Oprah or Ellen?
Oprah today
Was that a total tearjerker today on her show with the puppy mills? I just recently found out about puppy mills as I was trying to adopt a cocker spaniel from a rescue that deals with cockers. I had to fill out a long application. They checked a lot of references, called my previous vet, previous groomer, etc. Then they had to do a home visit. The lady that did the home visit told me some very sad stories about a puppy mill where they went in at night and tried to rescue some dogs away from the place. She rescued one that only weighed 5 pounds that they used to breed. How sick are these places. She said that the Amish- are very well known for this. She told me of a story that a man through a alive dog in a Goodwill bin because he was done with the breeding process and thank God the next day a worker heard the poor thing crying. I rescued 2 cockers and could not be happier. I do not know where they came from but they are so loving. I think the government needs to get involved and shut these places down. They are breeding thousands of dogs and meanwhile we are killing hundreds a day all over the US. Does that make any sense? Please no one buy from a PET STORE. If you want a pet go to PETFINDER.COM and look up the breed, you want and you will see pictures of all kinds in all the US.
Oprah's show
I did watch it today...I thought I would have problems as I cannot watch most shows that show how animals are abused. I thought it was very informative and discrete. I will NEVER buy from a pet shop again although I got my buddy from a pet shop..went in for a hamster and came out with a 3 week old kitten in a cage by himself. He used the litter box right away with no problems. He is now 14 years old and is still not able to groom himself properly. He goes against his hair and I just laugh and tell him how handsome he is - even though his hair is sticking up with spit all over. He was not with his mom to learn. He has other problems as being very dependent and sucking on my shirt...again his mom was not there and I am his mom. He constantly "kneads" on me and I tell him it is Saturday and he does not have to make the donuts. All kidding aside, it is very sad how these babies are taken away from their mom so soon. It amazes me how money is SO important yet the babies and moms are put aside as money makers. I love my Sim but he has a lot a problems probably due to being taken away from his mom so soon. The next cat or dog I get will DEFINITELY be from a shelter, and a dog or cat that will be hard to place. Please everybody, the pups and kittens are easy to place, give a home to the ones who are blind, deaf, are HIV, etc., they are so lovable....seems they know they have problems and will give you the love as you give them!! ADOPT THE UNADOPTABLE!!! 
Well Oprah loved it! I want to see it.
Maybe tomorrow.
Oprah probably does not have to listen to all the
Indian speakers I have to day after day.
She is a 68-year-old ROCK STAR, still bringing down the house. 'Nuff said. nm
x
Everybody is making it out like she's the first rock star to have a drug problem and win an award
Beatles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins, Eagles, INXS, Fleetwood Mac, Eric Clapton, The Doors, and on and on and on. If we only listened to, or gave awards to, the clean and sober musicians, our musical legends would be a completely different list.
I saw that on Oprah...so simple yet powerful!...
Especially when that married couple were at a stand still and then watched The Secret. Now, they have passion again for each other and are so happy. Something as simple as being grateful for what you have, then better things will come. I want to check that movie out.
That's the big secret? I saw some of that Oprah and got bored.
I have always been grateful for what I have, and no better things are coming my way, I can assure you. Maybe it's some sort of brainwash...with hidden subliminal messages. LOL
Anybody wath The Secret on Oprah.
Any experiences with this. I am having a great time.
I watched it. Did you just watch Oprah, or...sm
Did you order the 'The Secret' DVD? I've been thinking about ordering it. What have you been doing that's fun? Care to share?
I watched it on Oprah and then bought the CD
It's an interesting CD and I really like the theory behind it, which has been around forever if you think about it. What I didn't like was all the emphasis on material things, wealth, money, etc. To me it seemed that was the focus of the CD whereas on the show the panel focused on many other types of issues besides just getting wealthy.
Definately my choice would be Oprah!
; )
Oprah actually seems very "normal" for a billionaire,
Of course she has flaws and maybe some annoying personality traits, but it's all about intention imo, and I believe she is intending to change this world for the better, and she is succeeding! Everyone has a right to their opinion, but before throwing stones at such a great humanitarian, why not take a look at yourself and ask what you've done to better the world lately. I'm sure Oprah could name a few things off the top of her head!
She has stated numerous times that she has no interest in running for any type of political office, so don't worry your pretty little heads about it! If she ever ran I think she would have a good shot just because she lives her life pretty openly and doesn't seem to have anything to hide (she might even give too much personal info on her show!), and she seems to have a good heart and really wants to help those less fortunate. So many politicians scare me because they seem corrupt, and many are into shady business dealings. Many seem to be in it just for the money, which she already has plenty of! -end pro-Oprah rant (kam)
