People in other countries do not chose to learn English, they HAVE to learn it in school
for a period of 8 to 12 years.

I dont think people who celebrate Christmas should have
to work so you can buy groceries when you want them. I'm sorry, but that is like saying auto mechanics should stay open on Christmas Day so you can get your car fixed at your convenience or that the Post Office should stay open on Christmas Day so you can buy stamps when you want them. I respectfully disagree with your opinion, but it is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Dont blast me people, but if you do I can take it. Exhausted, please do not have any
yourself, financially or otherwise. That sounded bad, but not really meant to be.
Dont understand why people generalize
Just seeing your post and stating 53 and from a different generation and thus against guy's ears being pierced- please do not assume- you are so wrong- I just posted above about loving my man's ear piecing and wanting him to get another and I am 65!!!
Thanks much. I have heard a lot of people say they dont want flippers because they are a problem.
This is a front tooth but I would be willing to try it. I cant get an implant because of so much bone loss and quite frankly I have had so many apicos etc I am sick of dental surgery. All this was due to a fall when I was a kid.
I dont' say I was single to make people feel sorry for me.
I, rather, feel sorry for you because you obviously don't care about people who are truly in need, single, divorced, widowed or otherwise.
That is so very true! Can't befriend people where
husband works. I tried that one and they just want to "get to be friends with the Pastor," or "she's her friend and not mine gossip etc." For a while I would not tell anyone I was a pastor's wife because once that came into the conversation it was like I had some disease. Like I was either a nun or I was always praying or whatever. Believe you me it is far from that. We are more than normal, eat pizza while watching CSI, etc. Plus, my dear friend who lives where I just moved back to and is a teacher at the school we just went back to used to be a Pastor's wife, but she has her own problems (lots of kids and grand kids) so she understands how it is but I remind her too much of the old days and she stresses.
So, thanks for listening here. My husband listens to me and the other pastor's wives who are my friends who work with my husband, well we keep things light because they have their own problems. LOL. I want to quit this job of preacher's wife thing, but since I love the man behind the cloth and my family, well, not an option.
That is very true! And most of these people wouldn't say these things

Absolutely true; that's why I would think most people prefer girls.

That's great! Everyone should learn to cook & learn

Dont read this post if you dont want to know names
Brandon was not the worst of the bunch. People are for sure not voting for who they like. I will vote for Stephanie and Blake until they are gone. I couldnt get through on Lakisha and Melinda. They will be the last two IMO. I also like Jordan. I like none of the other guys. Would it be funny if all guys went home first and only girls were left!
Anyone a Survivor fan?
Who do you pick for the final 3?
Just one?? Survivor sm
But also looking forward to Jericho and CSI (I want to know what happens to Sara). Also looking forward to a couple of new shows, mostly the one with the kids - ?Kid Nation and the one with the vampire coming on after Jennifer Love Hewitt. I'm sooooo tired of reruns!!
survivor
I'm a lumpectomy survivor and I'd say anything that opens in the front and is easy to get in and out of. Fortunately, I didn't have to have a mastectomy but I would assume there will be frequent exams during the postop course and probably painful to raise arms, if able to at all. I personally liked pajamas with top that buttoned in front - don't have to get completely undressed and easy to get in and out of. Best wishes to your friend. Will say a prayer for her.

Survivor Fans????
What'd you all think of that blindside tonight? I loved every minute of it. While I'm not a fan of Natalie, I don't much care for Eric, either. I'm pulling for Amanda, but unless she wins immunity, I don't think Parv and Cerie are going to take her to the final 3.
This has been the best season yet of Survivor. The blindsides have been awesome! I still can't believe Eric was that stupid to trust 4 women.

Looking back over my experience as an owner and as a renter, raising my children alone with limited resources:
Renting is easier and more cost effective for you than buying.
Pro's of renting:
1. Low deposit to get in the door.
2. Rent is usually reasonable and oftentimes contract won't go up if you are a good renter.
3. MAINTENANCE is the responsibility of the management -- you are not out for those costs.
4. You can leave with a 30-day notice.
Pro's of ownership:
1. You are building equity.
2. Tax breaks.
3. If financial crisis, it takes about 6 to 9 months to get to foreclosure so you do have some time to find another place.
Con's of renting:
1. May require a background and/or credit check.
2. Although evictions are subject to some jurisdiction (they must give you a 10-day notice), it can be quicker to evict you from a rental than from your own property.
Con's of ownership:
1. ALL maintenance and repairs are up to you. Can be very costly.
2. You cannot get out of this very easily - especially in this market.
Hope this helps.

Miscarriage survivor question for others who have been through this...sm
How did you get through the time period when your baby was due? I lost my little angel at 11 weeks and the baby was due mid-June. Both my husband and myself have had good and bad days since the miscarriage but I'm fnding the closer to the due date I get the more sensitive I'm becoming. I just about burst into tears when walking into Target tonight I saw a lady that looked like she was around the stage of pregnancy I should have been at.
Any advice to keep the sanity?

No I dont and I dont take any medication for anything. nm

Well, hello, learn something new each day
my daughter came by tonight to eat some collards and black-eyed peas (money and luck here "supposedly" in the south for this next year and darn if she didn’t tell me she has floaters and have had them for years (she is 34). I was talking about asking the people on the MTs if they knew of any treatment. I thought was sorta an older type deal but apparently found something new today.
You sure do learn something new every day in this biz!

We can also learn from...
We can also learn from other countries' histories and examples -- like Turkey. Today, mass demonstrations in Turkey protesting Islamist government influences and demanding secular law. And we can also learn MUCH from England. NY Times reports that Muslim Sharia laws are now in effect in 3 municipalities near London. On the British version of our "Sixty Minutes" show, a local Muslim cleric's response to the interviewer was: "Who SAYS Britain belongs to the English?!" No, the U.S. has the most liberal immigration policies in the world but certainly common sense and fair play should prevail. "Gratitude'' and ''tolerance'' for one's homeland do NOT equal acquiescence to people here illegally. Nor does ''gratitude'' and ''tolerance'' mean simply handing over one's country to those who want to relocate here but then attempt to turn this country into a replica of THEIR birthplace -- with very little return ''tolerance'' for the ways of the natives already here. Yes--natives--People and descendants of people who came here legally, lived, worked, and built this country, generation after generation, and adopted their NEW country's ways. Not insisting that people be ''tolerant''of their attempts to turn their new homeland be a replica of the country they left.
Learn to say NO
I know it's tough when it's your own dad, but hasn't he burnt you enough already? Lock your door and don't answer it. If he catches up to you and asks you to let him hang out or do his laundry, say NO. Enough is enough.
Good luck.
You have to learn to say
no, grow a backbone and. Others only take advantage of you because you are letting them. The children should be helping you out because you have age on you and yet you are being a doormat for them. What would they do if you died? Tell them no way and stick to it, otherwise you have no life to call your own.
Learn some Spanish
This whole thread in my opinion has been blown out of proportion. While living in California, I saw an attitude with SOME of the so called minority races who felt that they were "owed something." I was raised in the Midwest, and grew up in a family that did not tolerate prejudice against any race in any way, shape or form. However, as I grew older, I began to see things in the corporate world that were definitely not in the favor of the white American. I for one, have become fed up with calling a company and speaking to a customer service representative from India or elsewhere, who gives a name like "Dave, John or Mike" and you know definitely that is not their name. Plus the fact that they can barely understand English and as a consumer, I cannot understand what they are saying. We have a LOT of older Americans now with computers and the newer technology, and think about them trying to understand someone who can barely speak English.
I am also a relative newcomer to the Miami area and again, as I mentioned before, I was raised in the Midwest, where even the Hispanics and other minorities that I was raised around learned to speak English. If for example, you or I moved to France or Germany, we would be expected to learn to at least speak the language to a certain degree and that is the point that I am trying to make here -- when one moves to America, they need to learn to speak ENGLISH and it should not be the other way around.
She needs to learn about safe sex. Either you SM
discuss this with her or, better yet, see doctor and have her given some form of birth control. I think this is imperative. If she is having sex, I don't think she is going to stop. You somehow have to convince her to act responsibly. Condoms would be the best thing.
I know kids have to learn, but this seems
Hang in there. When my son was 5, he went in a little country store and helped himself to some Skittles. When his dad made him take them back in and explain he had not paid for them, the lady told him "that's okay, you can have them". We could have killed her. HA! We explained to him that this was serious and the lady was being nice, etc. etc. Hang in there and be sure your son realizes this isn't funny, this is serious. If you have to pay the $100, make him pay you back somehow. Good luck.
You'd think she'd learn from seeing all her sister is going through - NM

you can only learn if you have a brain

I think it means you are still willing to learn (sm)
Something I have noticed about being "defined" is that sometimes it gets in the way of learning something new or even correcting old cherished ideas that are really wrong.
I have come to have definite and convictions about things, but it took time and something I still do is draw contrasts with other ideas to see if I still am comfortable thinking the way I do. Some things I have become more sure of, some refined and others discarded.
If I was going to give advice, I would say to keep asking questions about things and when you get answers, analyze whether they really make sense. It sounds like that is already what you do. As you go, you will become more sure about some things you believe now and other things are yet to be discovered.
One more thing I would advise: Keep an open mind and don't discount anyone as possibly having the information you need to find what is right and true.
Yep. Use it to go to PBS and learn grammar and

I'm behind the school. Learn that what you say
Learn that you have a responsibility for what you say.
School ought to be backing up their teachers and their reputations and put brats like the student you describe right out.
I have no more tolerance for this unbridled generation coming up.
LOL!! You should try to learn to type with them ;-) nm

Want to learn how to use taser
I have a husband who travels and I am home alone a lot of the time. I want to buy and learn to use a taser. Does anyone have any information that might be useful for me?
let it out, maybe they can learn from your mistakes

I always wanted to learn
but never had anyone in my family that lived close enough to teach me. My grandma and aunt can do all that, but they live in MA and I'm in GA.
My mom never learned how to sew or cook or anything, but she can farm, fix a car engine, etc. My gram on her side never knew how to do any of those things either, unless you count stitching up wounds (she was a nurse).
But luckily I married into a family full of southern tradition and they are teaching me things like making my own jam, pies from scratch, and yes even sewing once we get moved closer to them!
child can't learn
I got in a hurry and goofed on the family relationships. Anyway, my daughter, her step-gran, and I take turns keeping her after school. My daughter's teenage son also helps with flash cards, alphabet video games, etc. He wants to be a teacher.
Very cool. Learn something new every day!..nm

Then learn how to use my tax dollars to the best advantage

As you age you will learn that a good answer
to a person asking a rude question (which this is and happens to be none of their business) is Why would you ask this- - or I have gotten to the age where I respond by Why would you ask such a rude question? No one has the right to ask you things like this so respond appropriately. You do not owe a nice response.
did your kids learn anything about penguins?
or did you just go on and on about how boring it was. Maybe if you paid attention to the story line (and explained it to your kids) of acceptance, or how penguins live, or at least enjoyed the music, your kids would not share your opinion.
4 weddings, don't you learn by your mistakes. 1 is more than enough.
Nope, did not learn from mistakes
but I sure got it right this time, married 7 years and love the ground this guy walks on. Am glad I kept on because you know something, I have found the love of my life and if I had stopped (which thought I would do after the last person died) I would have never known such happiness and bliss.
here's a suggestion - LEARN some Spanish
Sorry you had a bad experience at Jackson but Jackson Memorial Hospital is like #16 best hospital in the country. I have friends with cancer being treated there and believe it or not, they are getting good, consistent care.
I, for one, have 2 addresses, and I would use Hollywood Memorial Hospital FIRST...it, too, is a county hospital but for Broward. Used to be that Mount Sinai Medical Center on Miami Beach was my hospital of choice in the 1980s but today it's Memorial.......in Hollywood.
As for the Hispanic community, the Hispanics are the largest minority now in the USA - there are like 50 million of them here in the USA today. ALL our ancestors came from somewhere else, unless you are a true Native American, and so practicing TOLERANCE would be in your best interests.
Just my opinion....
...trying to learn like cooking or guitar, etc.?? nm
