1943 so I think probably around before most on these posts and lived through a myriad of history and information. What I said was if Merck did not make the profits, another drug company would. That is all. Millions, trillions made all the time on drugs. I am sure all pharmaceutical companies lobby for their drugs. If not 1 drug company, just will be another. I have no children that would require this and I do not live in Texas but if they are going to be mandatory in Texas, probably coming your way before long.

Lets see if this is as long as I think it is - sm
3rd grade - Eddie Milton (my first crush)
9th grade - Bryan Rowden ( 9 months)
10th grade - Bill Rossiter (3 months)-- 2 years old and had a car-- parents did not like that!
11th grade - Dan Machonis (my first time in "love" - 3 months)
Dan Nichols (6 months)
12th grade I played the field a bit - Brad Feldman - 2 weeks; Pat Hurley 1-week; Mike Pastore (my 2nd "love")- 2.5 months (found out he had a kid and couldn't deal with me and the other girl--first time I was not upset about break up though as he took the girl to court and got full custody of his 9-month old daughter and took care of her after that, I admired him for doing that.
After graduation -
Bill Schatzman 2.5 months (summer before college)
Denis Sweeney - 2 years (first and second year of college)
Took a break from guys the rest of college-2 years-and concentrated on grades.
After college:
Bill ___ (forget) (2 months)
Chris Nicholson (3 months)
Ed Harvey - 5 years
Jerry Nicolini - 2 years
then Jim, my DH now of 11 years.
--- what is weird is in my HS years I broke up with most of the guys, but after that just about every guy I went out with cheated and hence the break-up. Oh well.
Ok, lets take a poll, how many out there
EVER saw any evidence prior to today of her shaking, trembling, picking at bugs in the air, whatever -NEVER. Let her get some medical help through the court system.
and lets not forget
 Beauty is as beauty does.
You could always lets her knock it over once - sm
ours did that when she was about 9 months old, now never messes with it. She likes to lie under the tree but does not mess with a thing. But we do have a cat that is more like a dog though, sleeps at my feet in bed, only scratches on her scratching post, comes over when she wants to be petted or held, is just a good cat. Her only real flaw is her puking, she pukes at least once a week, usually on the carpet. If she could contain it to the tile floors I would care less but she has a nasty habit of doing it anywhere and usually on the carpet. I do give her the hairball stuff (which I have to sneak and just put it on her paw (top side) so she has to lick it off) which helps a lot with that, still aggravating. It is funny to see her laying under the tree, usually behind the nativity we have, hovering over it like a big sphinx.
Lets just say I am well read
I did not list all that I read, just some. I am older female, no cooking here, no children around to take spots out of clothing, know how to keep my husband satisfied so no need to read that. You would be so lucky to have my life, don’t be a hater as my daughter says.
Lets all get together and weep for this woman
You might have heard about the mother who had her young child write an essay to win Hanna Montana tickets- wrote that her father died this year in the service and the scam was found out. Now the mother that did this deed is on complaining that she has had to move from her apartment, cannot use her Mytube site, threats against her, etc., etc. Oh my heart just bleeds..... NOT.
Well lets see, I have worked for this same place now
for 18 years, the last 5 for a company and what raise?? I thought we just typed faster.
lets hear it for the boy -Survey
Okay, Christmas is next week. Our guys....they burp, they change the channels on the TV faster than we can figure out what is on, and other too numerous to count obnoxious guy behaviors, but what is good about them? What do we love about them?
As for me...in my darkest hour, he was my friend.
Merry Christmas!
that is the scary thing - lets face it -
I have lived well over half my life and reading the obituaries (I have no idea why I do this) I see younger and younger people - 50s, early 60s - dying all the time. What my daughter apparently doesn't realize is that I might not have 10 years left - actually she should - a 52-year-old woman that worked with her father-in-law recently collapsed at work - died later at hospital of AAA - very little symptoms.
Yeah, she lets pans sit overnight from cooking
sandwiches or eggs and then uses them the next morning to cook the same or she will just wipe them out with a paper towel and call them clean...no way! When she lived with us, I would have to get to them before she had a chance to use them the next morning on the kids before I got up!
But, lets bottom line this, being as married to the most powerful man in the US
I let her slide in her clothes, shoes, etc. She has a tall brother, therefore maybe her father tall, don’t know about her mother. She carries a lot of clout, no matter how she dresses, wears, her height, and on and on. Don’t hate on the First Lady.
lets pray he gets the maximum time; piece of crap that he is.

Wonder if they would take my first born?
I was gonna hold back, I think someone above said 20%, but after seeing your post may hold back the 30. I have already taken money out of an account to redo my house where I live, about $20 thousand (that counts as income)and with this upcoming closing, I will just set the 30% aside. I detest the IRS but also fear because I do not want them showing up at my home!
I was born 10-26-62, ...
dh was born 10-03-63
My dad always used to say I was born in the -(sm)-
wrong century! Actually, I would like to travel back in time to around 1915, so I could attend the Panama Pacific Exposion that was held in San Francisco. The only remnant of that amazing, year-long event is the Palace of Fine Arts in the Marina District.
Lets test the one giving the drug test, and (see message)
Lets make people who need to buy groceries take drug tests. Want to go to McDonalds? Hey need to take a drug test first. Need to renew your car registration - take a drug test. Want to go to a movie, better take a drug test. When will the insanity stop.
the baby did ask to be born

Born in Korea, but.....
I would say the guy definitely Americanized during his 15 years here. After all, he spent 2/3rds of his life here. Now honestly, look at our society over the years - what is more American than using a gun to solve your problems? Gun violence is NOT part of the Korean culture.
No, not illegal, born here but
from the getto part of town. Don’t assume about things, ok? We are talking about a person who has never held a regular job, has lived off welfare, gotten food stamps and besides that, it is no where close to slave labor. OMG. She has been around so long she does what is the basics and then watches a lot of televison. Slave, she usually calls me and asks if I have anything for her to do.
why could not have I been born rich
instead of goodlooking? 
for me, they have to be born 1966 or later...
Born and raised here but.......
I have never had sweetbreads or like you call it organ meat, not in my lifetime either unless starving. I know of no one in my family nor have I ever met that eats such. Oh BTW, my big chain grocery carries liver (as I suppose most stores in the US do) but have never seen the other organ meats you speak of so I guess in the south maybe not so popular?
Nov. 22, 1990 my son was born. sm
He was due on that date, kind of unusual for a baby to actucally come on their due date. I went into labor about 10:00p.m. on Wednesday night while watching "It's a Wonderful Life". So, labor all night long with really bad back labor. Found out about 5:15a.m. he was feet first (went to the doc on Tuesday and he was head first). So had a c-section and he arrived at 6:13a.m. I didn't get the turkey and all the trimmings but something so much better. Of course his b-day doesn't always fall on Thanksgiving but it did yesterday. It was fun visiting with all the family and hearing their take on that day. My mom's first thought was who will make the broccoli casserole? LOL!
She is just beautiful and was born on my b-day
I have vacationed at Myrtle Beach many many times. I had a friend from high school move there a couple of years ago and she loves it there. Being a resort town you just have to deal with a lot of tourists certain times of the year and right after graduation look out for the teenagers. That is where I went right after graduation (and hey, I didn't end up in jail! LOL)
Thanks - I love it too - was born there sm
My parents moved to Jacksonville but I still go to Amelia Island/Fernandina Beach almost every year.
It says she was Brazilian born - nm

meant to say "baby did not ask to be born"

Do you think the ONE world leader has been born yet? If so, who.

I was not born rich but over the years
I have had untold wealth given to me, quite a bit. I think where this comes from is the fact that I always and I mean always think about the underdog. I give from my heart to things whenever I can, when I hear a story that I feel I should try to give, animals, people in distress, you name it and if the story says I should try to help a particular cause, I do. I really have tried to impress upon my children and grandchildren IF you give from the heart, it so much comes back to you. I have not run out of money giving, in fact just the opposite, had wealth literally fall in my hands and I think this is why. What a person needs to understand is I give because I really want to, not because I have to and I never look for a return but there always is. I cannot count the times when giving and here money comes back. This is how I try to live my life.
you'd bet your first born on an anonymous post
I think YOU might be ill and need a therapist. I'm not that poster but I think your response here is assumptive and presumptive and you *seem* so much smarter than this.....you cannot assume anything on a public board online....and you said YOU'D BET YOUR FIRST BORN on your thoughts about that poster.....I think you need to recheck your priorities...........
JMO..........
Born and raised in Ewa Beach,
have not been home in almost 21 years. I think I like Bermuda better.
depends on how the kids were born...
How do I know this? My hubby and I have Hep C (in remission) and our child was born via vertical C-section (she was in a posterior-transverse lie, almost breech). She never got the hepatitis because she was not born vaginally.
There's so much online to back up what I'm saying, just check it out - Google for the issue. She has been tested twice and is totally negative. *happy*
BTW, specialist hepatologist told me I'll never die from this disease, I have that mild a case my entire life (since my 20s)...and have remained at Stage 1 all these years....
I, too was born in the 40s. Sure you heard of disrespect and
bad kids and teenagers, but there it was never, ever to the degree we see it today, and all sorts of new problems like the drug addiction, animal cruelty, arson, carjacking drive by shootings, constant robberies, etc. In my home town a chain of convenience stores was hit about 5 times in the last few weeks. They say they caught the four who were doing it. Also on today's news was the report they caught the murderer they have been looking for. . a youth who killed someone in my home town over drugs. We had our problems back then, but nothing like this. It is totally out of hand.
Was born and raised in WV. Now I live
just across the state line in VA. Am still a WV girl at heart. Can't think of a better song to sing. Would rather sit in the sun as opposed to raking leaves though! LOL!
Oh, so it's better to abort a child then let it be born
You have a right to have an abortion obviously, but I don't think you have much room to judge someone else accidentally getting pregnant since you obviously accidentally got pregnant too. I guess you're judging her decision to give birth to the baby then - not the fact that she got pregnant. interesting.
This reminds me of one of my sister's friends. She is a catholic (no offense to catholics - it's just what she is), and she has had 3 or 4 abortions because she cheats on her husband and doesn't want "2 different kids from 2 different men." Yeah, she judges people that have kids from 2 different guys, yet she just aborts babies left and right to avoid having the kids! The interesting thing is she just had a baby that was supposed to be her husband's but the kid looks NOTHING like him. She disgusts me. I can't figure out why my sis is still friends with her!
I was so tired after my children were born (sm)
I wanted to be left alone because my house and myself were a mess. I was exhausted and did not have enough help from family, but the kind of mess you don't want your friends seeing. I should clarify that I had a c-section each time, so was recovering from that. I would maybe bring her food and give it to whoever answers the door with a note that says "I know you're still exhausted - I'm here if you need me - call me when you're up to it." And leave it at that. Just be patient. Unfortunately some of my friends abandoned me too and a few weeks later when I needed them, they were unavailable.
There was a baby born in Philly
People don't 'become' gay - they are BORN gay.

born/raised in sacramento, ca
and yes, it has changed tremendously in last 30+ years; so much bigger. i still have family there, but do not like going there anymore.
Whole family born in Cleveland but me - sm
I was born in SE PA, Media, PA (45 mins from Philly). My whole life there, got, "you're not from around here", sorry yes I am, but family is not. I picked up some of their accent growing up obviously. Moved to Virginia 10 years ago, boy I had a hard time with some of the people here (my 1 neighbor was terrible), really thick accents and hard to understand, but they are few luckily. Most everyone here sounds the same to me, maybe a slight drawl but nothing major, my friends in PA though say I have picked up an accent from being here so long. I have no idea.
Yes I am, born and raised in Kentucky and

nope, mine was born with a fur coat :)

Um, no, not young...and I wasn't born yesterday
Of course I know women have been doing this for years and years.....and I still think it's ridiculous. I have admired MANY singers and have been to many shows and concerts but can't say I ever fainted or cried my eyes out like that. Nope, not this girl! lol
Born and raised there in Wahiawa, HI. Left after sm
my mom remarried. I was soo homesick that I went back. But then I missed my mom too much and then came back to her here. It's been about 13 years since I've been back. I've since married and my "dream" is to take my husband and 3 children "home." It would cost around 8,000 to go for a 1 week vacation with 5 airline tickets, etc. We've looked into it many times.
The funny thing is this. I always have dreams that we are there. All of a sudden I'm at the Honolulu Airport picking up leis. Or I'm on a beach in HI and all my kids are with me. One dream I had was so vivid that I actually asked my husband if we were really there. He said, "Of course we are." And it was just like I remembered it. On the beach. I began crying because I was SOO excited. And then I woke up. Isn't that tragic? haha
I'm part Hawaiian from my paternal grandfather
This is the baby I want to buy. He was born in June - and is a teacup sm
Yorkie! If I can get him shipped, HE'S MINE! He will be as big as my Diet Dr. Pepper can! I LOVE these things...isn't he precious????
I was born in NYC, spend most of my life in Boston... so
I'm gonna watch the Law and Order CI/SVU marathon. HA.
(avoiding the superbowl entirely, can't decide who to root for, and besides L@O marathon rocks) with a side of pizza and pepsi! Life is good.
Miracle baby born with 2 faces
This was NOT in the Enquirer. This was really on the first page of the Lakeland Ledger in Florida. An Indian infant was born with two (count them) two full faces. That is four eyes, 2 noses, 2 mouths, and the baby eats with both mouths. They are calling this child the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess and a temple is being built to this goddess in the small town. The family is being given lots of money and gifts, and visits!
You should see the picture of this kid. Perfectly normal, except each side of the face is a full face. Nothing else wrong that they know of. I did not know what to think today, if I feel sorry for the child, or worried about how this defect will affect her life. Also, what's it like to see with 4 eyes, and how much food will it eat with 2 mouths! Amazing. Maybe you can look it up on the web to see the pix.
we were born to mothers who smoked and drank
our cribs were covered in lead based paint. .And we turned out okay. . Your MIL would not EVER knowingly do anything to harm your child. . but 9 months old seems a little young - if she were older and could sit up and hold on, and MIL drove real slow, maybe it would be okay. . My dad used to take my daughter rides on the tractor - I worried but never said anything - it didn't happen often. . I think she should have asked you first.

I was born in El Centro, California. I haven't
been there since we left when I was 7 years old (military brat). The town I graduated high school in is where I live now - I remember my senior year I couldn't wait to get out of this place. Seven years later and kids and I couldn't wait to move back - they have great schools!!
I may have to Google my birthplace and see if anything is like I remember. - thanks for the thoughts!
