In Reply to: old book? Wow. You sure know how to punch someone - newatthisjobnotmt
being "punched in the gut" by the Christian majority in this country. Just please accept that not everyone thinks that the Bible is, well, the literal word of God.
Yes, I believe in Karma and I live a moral life; I just don't have that "personal relationship" with your savior.
Again, sorry to offend; I just see the world differently.

It might offend
Muslims. I have heard of Muslims taxi drivers who are refusing to transport people who are carrying alcohol of any kind. I also hear a talk show that is saying Muslims are demanding to have places to wash their feet in some of our airports, might be something religious?? I see Muslims can demand (and probably get) the daily prayers they are required to do, have the children do them in our schools and yet we have had to remove anything pertaining to church from our schools prior to now. We have let things go without a whimper and I do not know how things can be reversed now but sad state of affairs.
you did NOT offend hon!! That website....sm
You did nothing wrong - it's that website is what seems offensive - not the fact you supplied the link to Jewish entertainers/performers. It *looks* innocent enough until one goes and checks out not only the website itself but the ISP/DNS ownership/registration/sponsorship. And then to list the ADL (antidefamation league) under HATE GROUPS was the absolute straw -
I wrote them a letter all about my opinion of that site too!!!
Have a GREAT evening!!! 
What's with pork? Who might that offend?
I agree with everything you said. We bow to every whim in an effort NOT to offend people here, except for our own citizens! And christians...but I won't go there. I'm not particularly fond of *Halloween* decorations, but do like to decorate for fall with hay and scarecrow, pumpkins, and that sort of stuff...
Why does this woman offend you so?
What did she do to you? I understand that you obviously do not agree with her getting involved in her own daughter's life but it is her daughter - not yours. I think you are taking her situation way too personally for whatever reason.
The fact is, it is her daughter and she SHOULD protect her and do everything within her means to do so. She never said she was going to break the law. I see nothing wrong with her asking this dude to get tested - if anything, it will get him away from her daughter!!!
oh no you didn't offend me
i just wish i could afford to spend that much in gas!!! that's awesome that you have that as a home; I bet you have a wonderful adventuresome life.
And it's not their fault you offend them.
But--this is another reason. It was very nicely explained, and yet the arguing continues. Sometimes you just need to state your opinion and move on. There are some you just won't win. Like this one--or the puppy mill one. Somtimes people just don't want to hear it, let alone hear it over and over again. Just step away from the situation.
I'm sorry, didn't mean to offend but why would anyone want sm
a purse or shoes that cost 800-1000 bucks??? holy cow that's a house payment, for something that will be out of style in a year. But that's just me...
Enjoy your stuff.
Funny story, please don't think I am trying to offend
When we finally told my 86yr old grandfather (a very old-fashioned man from a very smal town) that my cousin was marrying a black girl he was totally fine with it, Thank heavens! Then the next day another relative asked him how he felt about "John" marrying a black girl, and he started saying "Black? Black? I thougt they said blind". Once he finally realized what was actucally going on he was still fine with it. I say if you are happy, then please continue to be happy. There is just not enough happiness in this world right now.
You did not offend but terribly misinformed
if you think most southerns are pro-life. So many people think of us as backwoodisy, barefoot, hauling moonshine, etc. I am not the exception at all, in fact I know 3 associates who have had abortions and I am well past 60 so mine before it was legal.... Not offended but please educate yourself, ok?
Really didn't mean to offend. DD's friend SM
moved to a small town in NC and there were a family of Hoggs that were prominent in the town. When DD laughed, her friend said it was common name.
There are strange names associated with various parts of the country.
I still use ex-husband's name, which is Irish, and common in New York, but down where I live, people never heard ot it! Not the greatest name, but better than maiden name.
Didn't do it to hope to offend....
There are enough piggy women out there to rival the men. I always find it amusing that women put down men so much, but leap at the chance to date them, marry them, look great for them, use their money, want to be treated with respect by them, but never look in the mirror at themselves. I, for one, have a fabulous man and am very proud to say it; he in turn has a fabulous woman!
Why would it offend me? And suggesting someone is depressed isn't a putdown anyhow. NM

Didnt want to say name because (sm)
Did not want it to come up in a search engine. Just think enough is enough for her family.
Sorry, didn't mean to offend. I meant, at a better salon. Hope that
xx
Oops! Hope I didn't offend you - my point was (sm)
that the more strict the parents are, the more rebellious the kids will be when the parents aren't around. In the past people always thought that "preacher's kids" were worse because they were raised so strictly. I think back then preachers were harder on their kids because they wanted them to project a perfect image.
You got me!! Even with the comments below, I didnt get it.

i didnt mean to come off harsh
i just dont understand and that is simply because i have never been a smoker
I dont think anyone should ever start because it is addictive and I am aware of that, but there are also other ways to quit. i just was saying it doesn't sound like you really care.... which is completely your choice.
sorry, didnt mean to misspell Sasha!

Hurley said he DIDNT remember her
Your DH was right...he wanted to know why he didn't see her on the dock. I totally have the same theory about Juliets sister's cancer. I bet it never did come back and I cought the heart monitor strip thing and wondered about that as well!! 
Your credit is ruined because you didnt do anything about it

Maybe didnt lose it. It just went south.

I didnt see last night's show but SM
I did see her the night before and thought she had that awful stretch-faced look of having too many surgeries. I don't understand how these celebrities think that looks good??!!!??! I like her too but jeez, enough is enough - at some point it's time to grow old gracefully and look normal!
Didnt say that! I said if she's uneasy with travel to
the US? Mexico will still be thre (unfortunately), so just wait and go when the the crime rate drops a little bit. We Americans have had great big TARGETS on our backs for a long time now, or havent you noticed? So the statistics might not be on an American tourist's side there right now. And if I'm going to be the victim of a crime, I'd rather it were here than in
Mexico. Sure wouldn't want to end up in one of their jails, or even in one of their hospitals.
I think, though, that the main thing that was meant by the gov't. announcement was that college kids shouldn't be going down there at this particular time, especially the girls. Not a very good place to be naiive and inebriated, even in the best of times.
I didnt really want parenting advice. You dont know
wanted to see if someone knew of a formula, like a percentage of income for xtras. Say what you want, but I will not be replying to any more of these posts attacking me and my family. Im sorry I even came here.

Thanks for your suggestions. Does anyone know how to make that darn paragraph symbol go away? I have those and a bunch of arrows all over my document!

Well I got a notice from the IRS that I could expect my stimulus check by May 30 and I didnt
get it today. I will get mine by mail. I wonder how far off it comes from when they say it will come.
Yes I had a lipoma removed from my thigh and it came back because they didnt get all the roots out.
I still have it and dont plan on bothering this time. It might be the size of 2 grapes or something.
Doesn't offend me to hear Happy Holidays, Happy Hannuka...sm
or any way someone wants to greet me. As a basic rule, people use the greeting most comfortable to the speaker. What does burn my butt is when someone tries to tell me that my comfortable greeting of "Merry Christmas" is not appropriate. To those who are not concerned with my comfort, I have no concern for theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.
I had very low BP when I was tired a lot...
went to the doc and he told me I needed to eat more protein. I was not only tired, had low BP but was also cold all the time. He also ran me through the battery of tests and everything was okay. I eat very healthy, have only one day that I call my bad eating day, on that day will have dessert, maybe fries or a soda. I exercise 5 or 6 days also, that revs me up too. It sounds like you are doing really good things for yourself, especially with little ones to chase! Have you been to the doc at all?
someone's tired
dictated: It is on the right side and it did not cough with clearing. 
Should be: clear with coughing!
Tired
How many MTs out there are just tired all the time. I feel run down all the time and I shouldn't. I do not drink caffiene because I have mitral valve prolapse. This is getting old feeling bad all the time. Any suggestions? TIA.
He is tired a lot, but I put that down to the insomnia - sm
He goes to bed at 9 or 10 and wakes up at 2, so living on 4-5 hours of sleep a night would make you a bit tired. No jaundice. He has some body ache from time to time, but figure that is normal aging. He only gets nausous after cooking. He cannot eat right after cooking, his mom is the same way though. He does not have a good appetite though, that has been getting gradually less and less, eats a light lunch and dinner, no snacking thoughout the day, though he has not lost weight, probably because of the beer though. He has had a lot of stomache upset lately, so if I get get him to a GI doc maybe we will discover only gallstones. He has had a couple kidney stones already, though he only mentions them after the fact. I told him he has to keep the stone so we can get it checked/analyzed to see what type of stone it is. He is an ostrich with its head in the sand. I just dread if anything ever serious is diagnosed as he will most likely refuse treatment which I think is insane. I have a very strong will to live and we have 2 kids, so it is hard to understand. AS for the other comment on the will, yes we did that years ago, and we both have life insurance as well so in that respect I'd be okay, but I'd rather have him here, not in the ground.
I'm in my 1st trimester and very tired....sm
with my last pregnancy, which resulted in a miscarriage, I wasn't. Anyone else have a lot of tiredness? I used to sleep only 6-1/2 or 7 hours a night and now am sleeping 8 at night and taking a nap during the day. I'm hoping the tiredness is a good sign. I see the doctor this week for my first checkup.
Apparently you are not tired enough of it
As you are still letting them out and expecting a different result. You can only truly control YOUR actions. Keep the cats inside.
I have problems being tired as well
I think you need to go see a doctor, I have an appointment next week to find out where the fatigue I have is coming from. Good luck.
Tired--I could have written that! (sm)
I used to have to go down for a nap during my lunch break and if I wasn't careful, I'd oversleep by at least a good hour. I even tried working a split shift, which only made my fatigue worse because I'd take the 4-hour break in between just to sleep.
My husband is on the verge of needing insulin shots due to his very poorly controlled diabetes. His latest health report scared him enough to make him a willing participant in a strict diet. I am also on this diet to help make things easier. It totally bites the big one but I'll tell ya, WHAT A DIFFERENCE in my energy level--his too! We figure it just had to be the sugars and carbohydrates that were dragging us down.
No more breads, pastas, rice, or taters....all the things we really loved. We do munch all day though but on teeny portions of good stuff--mostly raw things like fruits, veggies, or bits of egg & lean meats. No more cream or sugar in our coffee, and that's just limited to 1 cup of black a day. No more butter either--my personal favoritest fat.
Been on it almost a month now and I can honestly truly feel a difference. I almost have enough energy to start exercising, which I didn't have before.
I'm 5' 10" and topped off at 230 but am now down to 220 just by this diet alone with no exercise. I'd be happy at 185 but once winter hits...man, I just don't know about that! I haven't been to a doctor in about 2 years either, but I'd recommend you visit one if you can, just to rule out stuff, ya know?
Hope you feel better soon!
I know you are tired of me, but I just wanted to say
the pictures both of you sent are beautiful. The cat looks like one of my niece's. Lisa had a tonsillectomy Monday at age 45 and I am going over today on my day off to help her and to feed and care for the two cats! What a day this will be. The red one comes up to me and stares at me with those big yellow eyes and actually puts his nose against mine! I try so hard not to laugh, but I lose every time.
 
Thank you so much! I am so tired of feeling like (sm)
I am running around in circles, wasting my time! I really hope the doc will approve it and that the meds will help.
I am so tired of being fat, I am starting something soon
I am glad to see your post because I am having trouble getting into those size 20s and I am not going any higher, that is too high like it is. I have some problems that I am sure are associated, the main 1 now being incontinence and I mean it is not just a little. My blood pressure is a little elevated and I am sure that would come down with the loss. My feet also give me some problems, probably tired of carrying all this extra stuff. i had heard some about this and glad to know available right up the street. Thanks again!
I got really tired of the same from g'kids and get this
their mother would be sitting there tearing open the packages for them (they were old enough to do on their own). I told her several times to please let the children open. Have not given gifts to them now in about 3 years so don’t have to put up with that anymore. Let them open like they wish, out of it.
Tired and worn out
I am sure a lot of you are in the same boat I am, but I just need to vent.
I am 50 years old, married for 33 years, have a 26-year-old daughter (schoolteacher) who lives at home.
We run our own business, plus I do transcription. I receive no help whatsoever. I run the office for the business, do all the housework (dusting, dishes, laundry). I am hating to get up in the morning because I know I just face the same thing every day. My husband and daughter are very busy as well, but I wish they would just pick up after themselves. All I do is pick up and never get to serious cleaning or organizing. I am going in circles all the time.
I am ready to pack my suitcase and run away. There has to be more to life than this.
Thanks for letting me vent.
tired of shoveling..sm
Bet you don't miss that heavy wet snow....after shoveling your car out for 1-1/2 hours and the snow plow comes back and spews it in your face and you've gotta start all over again. Scraping ice off the windshield, trying to deice the locks to get into the car. Getting stranded in a blizzard with 2 kids (at least you had the presence of mind to bring blankets, extra clothes and snacks). Rolling down the interstate, hit a patch of black ice under the snow, do a coupla 360s and the kids say "Mommy, do it again!" cause they thought is was fun. Shoveling the roof of your house so it won't cave in. Clearing the driveway and walks, putting down rock salt so nobody slips.
It would be really nice if it just fell on the grass like in those old Currier and Ives pictures/cards.  Cat
Tired of shoveling said almost all
of it. I hate snow. Snow is back again today. I just cleaned the gunk off the car yesterday, but now it is back. Looks like black and gray mucoid substances hanging from door handles of car and flung up along the sides onto the windows. The ice wrecked one of my wipers today on the way in to town. The concrete at my home is taking a beating from all the snow melt we have used. We now need new concrete. My carpet is trashed from all the in and out traffic even though feet are "wiped off" - my husband's shoulder is out from shoveling so much. I barely got to see the ground before it started back. People are on the side of the highway putting on chains, crawling around in the dirty snow, ice and crud. Yummy! I wish I could be in a warm place and not wear boots. I am typing with my wool hat on (lovely -I look like a fashionista just so, so stylish, and my daughter is laughing at me because she says I look like a "Canuck" (I guess she means a Canadian from a snowy place, but who knows, she can't stop laughing long enough to explain). I have on three tops (two are fleece) and ugly warm pants with Uggs on that go up to my knees. I am still cold. The dogs don't want to go outside. Whenever I open the door for them they look at me like I am a "killer" or something. If you have dogs I bet they are smiling! Mine like the snow at first and roll in it, but when it hangs around too long like it has been they go into "dog depression" and it is sad to watch. If it snows too much all at once I have to get on a ladder to clean the snow off the top of my car so it does not slide over the windshield and totally block my view (dangerous - it happened a couple of weeks ago and I almost had a cow because I was on the freeway and suddenly it was just dark inside my car and it did not fly off). So, drive around and be happy! We could send you videos of the different stages of snow, I guess. The first fluff, the "snowed-in look" clean and beautiful, then the plowed up gunk and all cars off the road, etc. and then all the tired, depressed, cold people who would give their right arm to join you in your snowless paradise. Hang in there! You must be confused because God has blessed you greatly! I am eating my heart out right now just thinking of your "misfortune" and dreading the sun going down when the roads turn to an ice rink and the crashes begin, sometimes multivehicle.
I just got tired of all the droning on and on
