on a person who needs help. The people are having surgery or in the hospital because they need help. The accidental gun deaths are completely unnecessary.

No babies at home, but still working, only difference
is I don’t have to do the wash, have housekeeper for that and other chores in the house. I would be willing to say a lot of high-powered women CEOs would never ever say they want to work from home so they can be little Miss Housekeeper. If they want to climb that corporate ladder, just how does that sound against the male. No wonder the other gender makes more than us.
My doctor has 2 nurses working in his office. nm

Honey, I grew up on the south shore of Long Island, NY in hurricane territory...
ya know how to duck and cover. I've never been through a major earthquake or a real tsunami yet though. Hey, there's always time for that.  Cat
We never go anywhere either. too dangerous!
my sympathies about your hubby :(
Yes, very dangerous...sm
I haven't even thought about getting her a helmet yet because she's only 9 months old. I didn't realize I would have to worry about her being on anything this dangerous already! It's pretty ridiculous if you ask me. My brother-in-law has a 15-month-old who he takes on the riding lawnmower with him while he's mowing the lawn, and they don't understand why I need to have someone watch my daughter while I'm mowing the lawn! I know they think I'm overprotective, but that's ok I guess.
oh how I know - they are the most dangerous gang
most dangerous gang here in America - the world has become a very dangerous place....all some of us wanted was peace and love an all we got was guns, terrorism, gangs, death, and more destruction!
makes me VERY ILL..........
Oh Yea I SURE HAVE!! Equally as DANGEROUS!!
Why trampolines are dangerous ...
New hazard of trampolines discovered in Wisconsin.
And I don’t think it is dangerous just to travel, sm
If I had waited for a Starbuck I might never had a trip before. Believe it or not, never remember seeing 1 anywhere I traveled. Your response is strange.
Speaking of dangerous LIARS
Have you made note of the people running OUR country into the ground - while killing with abandon in Iraq, etc., ad nauseam?
Banging his head could be dangerous...
My son did that a couple of times when he was about 3, and I was telling a guy at work about it. He said his girlfriend's son did that all the time and actually got brain damage from it, which really freaked me out. The next time he did it I just got down on my knees right in his face and told him verrrry seriously that he could really hurt himself doing that and let him know it was unacceptable. He must have sensed something in my tone, because he's never done it since!
It sounds like he just needs to figure out a better way to manage his anger. Maybe buy a book about how to help kids deal with outbursts or get him a couple of counseling sessions? Does he ever express what is making him so mad verbally to you so that he can vent? It sounds like he may just need to get it all out, and instead of doing it in a healthy way he hurts himself, so maybe that anger could just be redirected.
Maybe you could also explain to him that everybody learns new stuff. Tell him if he doesn't let people teach him he will only be as smart as a 5-year-old his whole life! Tell him he's smart for a 5-year-old but no one is going to want to hire someone with a kindergarten education! I don't know if he will understand those exact words, but just try to get the point across to him that even adults learn new things every day and that's what makes us smarter. Tell him to at least watch the way you do it and consider doing it your way. Maybe if he knows he has a choice to do it your way or his way he will feel better. Kids want choices too, I guess. I don't know for sure, so like I said - I would try to find a book on the subject too or something. Good luck! Before I had kids I had no idea how smart and sly you have to be to constantly figure them out!
Some people are just not aware how dangerous
it is. I tried to talk with my sister-in-law about her husband (the half-brother of my husband). She has worked in the medical field. I was so sorry my words not heeded. I have been around him, seen him falling asleep just sitting down, the wreck, even out of town with my husband 1 night my DH told me about his horrible snoring, he is overweight but diabetic too and does not pay much attention to that. You cannot help where they don’t want it.
I think it is a dangerous thing to do for several reasons.
First, it shows the employer that the employee is not responsible with their finances. Creates a feeling of always desperate and can never get enough.
Secondly, how can one ever possibly try to hold to a budget with constant borrowing from the future? You can never, ever borrow your way out of debt.
Sad.
facebook dangerous in my mind sm
Friends invite friends who invite "friends only" until there are people from all over on what is supposed to be my "family space" according to one family member. Never place a full-face picture on there as they can lift it and put it on a phony license, etc. My son had his identity stolen, had to take time out of work, travel to the city where the crime was originated and go to court. My son is Caucasian, the other person was not, it was horrific! I also do not like other family members posting pics of me and my family on there at every family function under their "family and stuff" albums. I am so sick and tired of preaching - nobody listens, they love the attention, they post every move they are making during the day which to me is sooo ridiculous! I feel the same about Twitter and My Space. I vote hands down.
Borax washing powder is not dangerous.....
Borax sold in the supermarkets for laundry washing and other uses is not poisonous to the public. However, REAL boric acid is......just be careful with it.......that's all.....regarding pets and people.......
Tylenol (acetaminophen) is dangerous, not aspirin
Patti is right - aspirin can safely be given to dogs. It's Tylenol (acetaminophen) that is dangerous to give to dogs, and I believe also to cats. (Anyone with doubts, please call the nearest veterinarian, but I know several vets have told me so, I've had probably 20 dogs in my life, and though I love cats, I'm allergic to them  ) The animal livers can't handle Tylenol like human livers (and it's also very dangerous to our livers in overdoses) Chocolate is also bad for dogs, by the way.
the best plan is lifestyle change, not some dangerous
like the previous poster said, the weight will come back when you stop. I have kept a food diary and counted calories and now am down to 108 lbs. Creating a calorie deficit is the only safe way to lose weight.
Severe warning about dangerous dog-toys!!
I came across this blog today on Craigslist: http://www.thechaistory.blogspot.com/
And if you have a dog, it's a must-see. It details what happened to a dog that was severely injured by a dog toy called a "Pimple Ball" made by Four Paws, Inc. The dog ended up losing his tongue, and the pain he had to endure was excruciating.
The dog's owner relates that the Four Paws Co. hasn't owned up to the fact that its toy is dangerous, and he's calling for a international boycott of Four Paws, Inc. After watching his video links of his poor dog's suffering, even though I have cats, I plan to be sure I don't purchase ANYTHING from this company, andhopefully you won't either.
Just saw a report on news where they listed it as a dangerous drug
apparently caused something that looked like malignant polyps in the colon but other than that, people told not to take it on a first date, not good idea and you should maybe, starting to take for first time, wear dark pants. I guess that is so the orange diarrhea won't show through so much.
Cell phones - How dangerous is their long-term use?
Hoax or not, the long-term safety of cell phones is still very much in question! They are not innocuous, and emit harmful electromagnetic radiation in varying amounts. Just as policemen's radar guns laid in their laps have caused testicular cancer, so the incidence of brain tumors from cell phone usage has also been on the rise.
That very thing happened to my stepdad, a brain tumor & aneurysm right above his right ear, where he holds his cordless phone constantly. Cell phone signals decrease fertility of humans & animals alike, & Swedish researchers have proven that they are ESPECIALLY damaging to the brains of children! Cell phone-using kids are FIVE times more likely to get brain cancer. I gave mine up over 5 years ago & will never use another one on a routine basis. This issue is being covered up, but is certain to become the controversy of the 21st century, just as tobacco was in the 20th century.
Please be aware that St. John's wort with any SSRI or MAOI can be dangerous - sm
...unless your physician is aware that you're using it in addition to your Rx meds. (Other things, like 5-HTP, if I'm not mistaken) can have similar potentially dangerous side effects in combination with Rx antidepressants. Just sayin' ....
Here's how I see the difference
Happiness is derived from a sense of accomplishment or achievement...it usually involves a skill or talent. It is something you usually work toward. Very much akin to enjoyment.
Pleasure requires no skill or talent. It is usually physical.
What's the difference?
You say, "That's the difference." Can you clarify?
You are correct, I didn't phrase a query. I told them what I wanted them to do, and I told them in a calm and respectful manner. I didn't lecture them about what they were doing, I just told them that I would like for them to leave. In our township, school property is not open to the public. It can only be used by permit after school hours, and I am the permit holder. I am within my rights to ask others to leave the property during the times when I'm designated the responsible party for the property.
So I didn't ask the teenagers to leave. Had I asked, "Will you please leave," the answer could be yes or no. That was not my goal. Therefore, saying "I'd like for you to move off the property," clearly states what I want done.
Still, I don't understand what you mean by "difference" in your post. The difference between what and what exactly? Are you saying that I should have asked them a question and then abided by whatever answer they gave me? And that since I didn't offer the opportunity to decline a request, they were within their rights to be disrespectful and shout obscenities?
difference -- sm
The lady who posted on MySpace also, if I remember right, had sent personal emails to this young girl. There was a deliberate attempt to hurt this child and progressed over time. The woman is not being punished for her posting on MySpace, she is being punished for her deliberate attempt to deceive and hurt someone else. Nothing would have happened to her, I believe, if the child had not taken her own life. Once a crime happens or is committed, her intent changed from bullying to involvement in a crime.
the person who wrote her opinion about another person has committed no crime against that teacher whatsoever. If a student can be suspended for calling a teacher a name, then perhaps EVERYone who calls someone else a name, should be punished in some way, shape, or form, but the last I knew, our country was still a free country and we were able to express our opinions about another if we chose to, even negatively.
What is the difference in that and them

age difference
Actually, I married a man 17 1/2 years older than I am. Outside of his kids (his oldest is 5 years younger than myself), things have worked out quite well for the last 32 years. He raised my kids and they love him and treat him better than his own kids. Depends upon what you are looking for in a relationship.
Difference here in what you and I say
You said busted your butt to pay for. I did not have to do that, never paid a house payment in my new home, husband does that for me.
well I think the difference is
mentally challenged is a PC word to describe anyone with a mental illness - (does it also mean, or instead mean, someone with mental retardation?)
Autistic is specifically someone with one of the autistic spectrum disorders. They may be mentally challenged, but all MC are not autistic.
Then there is physically challenged, the PC word for the physically disabled, which I personally hate... because I am physically disabled... disabled will do just fine....
What difference I see
Pork skins are sold in the package and can be out of the shelves, usually in the potato chip section. Cracklins which are fried bits of pork are sold in the meat department and need refrigeration, otherwise they spoil. Skins need no refrigeration.
There is a difference between ...
supply and demand and "inflation". Just look at the over supply in houses and cars now and you can get a great deal now. There is a fear of the food supply becoming scarce (whether that's true or not, I do not know), and scarcity or fear of scarcity increases the value.
Please tell me the difference in you
being a working single mother as opposed to a working divorced mother. Does it make a difference in your marital status or lack of some kind of way that a guy would talk that way? I just wonder how that plays into it?
Age difference...sm
My hubby is exactly 3 weeks older than me (we are both Virgos, but he doesn't act like a Virgo...he's too calm, cool, and collected).
I can't tell the difference when something has MSG and when it doesn't. nm

thanks Jon-but I knew difference between the 2.
If you want to make a difference each
month you can give $30 a month to Worldvision and sponsor a child and also help the community the child lives in. They also have a way you can give gifts at Christmas with their catalog (which I did this past year made my family cry) where you give $13 for a wheelchair! OF course it is not a high tech wheelchair but one that works well for the child that needs it. I have been doing this since 2003 it is a blessing.
Only difference, is most were legal and
not anymore. I do not want to pay more taxes and they pay ??? none perhaps to cover them. I pay enough as it is without adding on extra mouths to my taxes.
Oh, please! There is a big difference between a cookout
and a massive fire unattended leaping into the woods behind your homes that can set all the homes on fire. We can cook out all we want but we cannot have bonfires going. We live in a county where there is NO outside burning, be it your old cars or your barbecue. Sorry but if I lived here or somewhere else, safety should play a part in whether you would like to keep your residence. Just common sense to me. I love my peace and quiet. Other can live in rat holes if they like. We have our swimming pools, our tennis court, our neat and manicured yards, no loud music playing and rocking your home, no kids running in your yards, no fighting, swearing and the like, just pure blissful peace. Cant beat it! Best place I have ever lived. I would go for these rules in ole day commpared to the posts I have read and how others have to put up with crap. Not this woman!
How do you explain the difference between...
a republican and a democrat to a teenager?
The difference is about $150 - yikes!
I checked out the website and a 3-week supply of entrees and shakes was $294 plus shipping. Thanks for the info, but I think I'll try NutriSystem.
Difference between us and the situation you described...
I would have yelled back at her instead of hiding my tears. When she hurts our feelings, we let her know it. (I know, I shouldn't be yelling at my kid, but hey, I'm human, too.)
There is a huge difference between ...sm
spanking and beating. My dad used to get out his belt when I was bad. And I mean, I deserved it. Those lessons stuck in my brain, and I did not EVER break that rule again, not out of fear, but respect and I always thought twice about breaking any other rules. Even after I was past the age of spankings. I do not spank my kids with a belt, I cannot bring myself to do that, but I do not fault my dad for doing it to me when I deserved it. I also am a very nonviolent person. I will spank my kids when all the time outs and talking to don't work and nothing else seems to make the lesson stick in their head. They do not have bruises, they are not scared of me, they are happy kids. I think if a lot of other kids would have gotten the spankings they deserved when they were growing up to learn those lessons, they would not have been out shooting people or beating others up and have the issues they do now. And no, I did not grow up in the 50s. I am only 30 years old.
There's a little difference with smoking, though.
Your second-hand smoke is harmful to others and the environment.
Alcohol kills more people than just those who ingest it.
Obesity only kills the person suffering from it.
Rude to comment on it? Maybe. Then again, everyone who has to put up with the butts on the ground, the second-hand smoke, the nicotine stains and the stench of it clinging to you as you walk into the building -- well, I guess they do have a right to comment.
people don't know the difference between... cm
"your" and "you're" including medical transcriptionists (even worse).
The difference is that you never did; these guys have already been doing it. nm

What difference does it make? --sm
it all comes clean in the wash anyway. Their bowls are not any dirtier than yours are, after having eaten off of them. just my opinion.
What is the difference in a dog eating
raw chicken and roaming around outside and eating an animal it kills????
Reiterated over and over age difference
He says it doesn't bother him; he just wants to make me happy!
Totally amazing !
Ten years difference here, been married
for 7 years, his first and my eeks, 4th but this is the last, I promise...
Not saying I care - makes no difference to me
one way or the other. I just have a mild curiosity what others think. This is a forum, isn't it?
Heck no sounds like you can't tell the difference.
