dancing is more visual. The Idol contest should be held over the radio, I think it would be more fair because I think everybody gets hung up on looks too much (lets vote for the cute one)

from the way I understood it--sm
it wasn't dog food that was sold to the farmers, it was the same chemical put into the pig and chicken food, as well as what was put into the dog and cat food. According to the Chinese, they have been doing this for years and it is an approved practice, over there. I am sure there is going to be other animal foods that have been tainted with this melamine stuff, too.
I am just as disgusted as you are!
understood...sm
but I do believe there are some dry foods on the list now, as well, and if I remember right it was through Dr.'s Foster & Smith, and involved some type of brown rice food, but I am not sure about that either, I just think there are some dry foods on the list now. I will have to check again later. It seems the list is growing every day and it scares me.
I understood the comment, too
That's why I thought it was offensive.
Oh I didn't say I understood it!
I just figured it was the same argument my husband is always spewing...that beautiful people will always come out smelling like roses because they always have their looks to fall back on (beauty over brains, etc.) and America sure loves its beautiful people. Some people associate skinness with beauty, which is true in most of the cases, I just see more cases of the opposite where I am in this little world of ours ;-)
The way I understood it, the tax lady was.....sm
saying that she thought he was "slow" because he was black and blacks are not given the same opportunities as white people. I would be mad. She was more or less calling him dumb. I can't stand people who want to put down people of other races. God created all of us and Heaven is not going to be segregated!!!
If you understood their culture...
you would be more enlightened as to how dates and names are said, rather than complaining about them. Really not anything to get that irritated over.

That's something I've never understood either
As long as you remain "unborn" there's compassion aplenty but mess around and get born and you're on your own.
I've never really understood that
I mean I do in cases of working around machinery, etc., but I know a lot of guys who don't have to worry about getting their fingers caught and they still don't wear them. It's almost like they don't want to advertise that there married.
My husband was on the fence about this when we got married ("his daddy doesn't wear his"), but I told him it really meant a lot to me and for me it is a symbol of our marriage (and yes, a bit of a marker for any ladies who want to take a gander at my DH LOL) and now he doesn't even realize he has it on anymore.
I've never seen his dad wear his, but he is also a carpenter, so that may be why I guess.
as I understood it when my parents retired--sm
and were on social security, they could only earn a certain amount above that social security. anything over that, they had to file. they may also reduce ss benefits by the amount earned. I may be wrong, but that was how I understood it. My mom is 78, completely on ss, has no other income, and does not have to file income tax.
I never understood why people like camping.
Maybe it's because I've always been a working-poor hick and every day life is kinda sorta like camping...
If I could do it, I'd take luxury accomodations all the way, baby. Plush furniture, gourmet meals, never-ending hot showers, room service, and NO CHORES!
I couldn't even fathom wanting to scrounge around for firewood, finding potable water, pooping in the woods, swatting at bugs, worrying about what's gonna camp out in your sleeping bag with you...ugh! Call me a pussy, but that's just me!
She sings awful anyway. I never understood
how she got that far in the first place. Scott either, for that matter. He's nowhere near the caliber of singer the rest are. But I'm glad she's gone -- she was so annoying. Was she wasted last night?!
I agree, I never understood the whole hoopla
about Angelina Jolie, same with Brad Pitt. When Jolie was younger, o.k., but now she looks really anemic and frail. I have always the urge to feed her.
I totally agree. I never understood how it
won so many awards. It was boring.
OK, Hayseed...explain how you understood this post please...sm
Cause I'm still lost on this one! 
I LOVE love love shallots! I use them in everything that calls for an onion and/or garlic. Mmmmmm. n

American Idol - Love, love, love Adam!!!
I think he'll make it til the end! At least I hope so!
I wish I wasn't right actually.....my mom was....sm
We/they all referred to my mother as *Mommie Dearest* - she was Joan Crawford's CLONE and her mom (my maternal grandmother) was Bette Davis' CLONE. Too much pressure put on little kids to be totally organized by the age of 10.....IT'S IMPOSSIBLE and not fair to the children - because this results in stifling your children's CREATIVE ABILITIES.
Happy for you that you are facing all that you are facing to not repeat (negative) history!! Have a GREAT, GREAT weekend!!!
I wasn't trying to jab you. Something's not
you claim to have ruined credit, working 3 jobs to pay bills.
Something isn't what you're making it out to be.
In my experience, people with bad credit earned it and usually have no interest in owning up to it.
you know i saw those but I wasn't sure about them
I thought they were a knock off of Yankees...but now I will definitely give them a try!
No, I wasn't--
The post about "stole my son, you brazen hussy" brings back memories. My mother-in-law actually kicked me following the rehearsal dinner and said, "Well, you finally got him!" I checked later and my stocking was torn and there was blood on my ankle. She had made this seem like a joke, but she meant it; I knew there was a friend's daughter she had wanted to introduce her son to after he left the military--I spoiled those plans. Left my home (small town) to live in his hometown (Atlanta) and never felt accepted by his mother or any of his friends, who treated me like a backwoods hick.
It's no wonder we divorced about 10 years later. My daughter is lucky that her in-laws were so accepting of her.
Wasn't in the least bit mean.
It was a simple question. You don't sound like you REALLY want any of them and I personally don't think that splitting siblings up like that is a good idea. If there is a home out there for all of them together, I hope they get it.
Never said he wasn't a pig...
he is one too. Water seeks its own level...jealous, no, just truthful. The woman is as much to blame as the man in this situation. She is a prostitute, he is a john. There is much more to life than using one's attributes to get ahead. If you had a daughter who was beautiful would you encourage her to use her "talents" and become an "escort"?
So maybe it wasn't
LOL Glad I asked. Something about putting dandruff shampoo on the face didn't seem right.
I am almost 30 and have had it since about 14. I took accutane and had great skin for about 10 years, now its slowly creeping. I'm preggers so not sure if its the hormones contributing or not but I don't want to take accutane again. I have tried proactive and just about everything out there and nothing helped except the accutane. I'll give this a shot. I have seen the Apricot Scrub in wal-mart but have never tried it.
Oh, if you have one or two problem spots that you want to get rid of quickly, Clean and Clear Persa Gel works great. If I know I have a special event coming up I will use that daily for the week or 2 prior and it helps a lot. It clears up any problem within 2 days but within the first day the redness is completely gone.
No, it's okay! I wasn't upset or anything,
just was confused when I couldn't find it. I wanted to post all that so hopefully anyone having these problems could maybe try the same thing.
Firefox is letting me into every site I use though, so crossing my fingers it continues.
Thanks for the tip about the degfrag. I haven't done it and will. :)
Can't believe he wasn't even in the bottom three! nm

Joy said she wasn't doing much, so he made up for it

Well if it wasn't for this grandmother
There would be no wedding. Grandmothers are the "chiefs" of our tribes so to speak. I hope the best for this young couple, but it sounds like they're being childish. Let the grandmother invite some people, unless their felons.
ok, said I wasn't posting again, but...
 BRAVO...excellent post...I was practically jumping outta my seat reading your post...THANK YOU..and thank your daughter personally from me for giving so much of herself and caring so much for the otherwise unfortunate children out there. Her students are blessed beyond measure and she will surely be richly rewarded for her hard work and dedication to these children...again........... to you and your daughter (you are undoubtedly an AWESOME mother!)
That wasn't very specific.
You didn't say if it was noise, trash in yard, wild kids, or what.
you know, i wasn't even going to justify this --
but, ah c'mon... i do have to work. it was not a steak knife stuck in him. the incident happened while he was less than 10 feet away. like i said, i wasn't even going to justify your "concern" with a response, but your statement is absurd. you're concerned that i was typing and not watching my child ?!? do you have kids? do you HAVE to work? do you have a spouse? i am all alone in this venture called life, raising this wonderous gift of a cherished child. there's no one but me to pay the mortgage, school tuition, the car note, and on and on and on. i have no help from anyone. i could keep my eyes glued to him if i was on state assistance. get real, it was just a slight bump in the road of life.
Mom wasn't kidding - it IS all gone!
What a cute picture.
I wasn't trying to be smart, I was
actually confused.
I wasn't going to reply to this but
the more I thought about it the more it infuriates me. What child deserves to be hit? Should I hit someone just because they aren't behaving? What about when I'm out shopping and I encounter a rude person who is cutting in line/grabbing at things, etc, should I hit them? How about if someone cuts me off driving should I run them over and "switch" them? We are the adults here and children DO NOT deserve to be hit for any reason. There is always another way to deal with their behavoir. But then again, I guess as long as you don't leave welts its fine right....despicable
Too bad this wasn't your first comment
to her instead of the rudeness above.
it wasn't much mentioned or
talked about, but after Katrina, other countries DID send money and supplies and I remember right, a lot of money was given to the 911 fund. I wonder about the supplies turned away Burma a couple of weeks ago. I am afraid that instead of actually reporting news, we are dealt the canned versions and have to suffer through many of the same reports over and over.
no i wasn't offended :) sm
i feel like to each their own. my kids didn't sleep with me when they were babies. they slept in their own rooms and actually they fell asleep on their own very well. my second boy would sometimes spit up big time while sleeping, so i kept him close to me anytime he was sleeping, in his bassinet (gosh don't know how to spell that!!).
i see my hubby and his family and although they all love each other, there is no communication whatsoever in his family and they aren't near as close as i am with my mom and dad. i want my boys to grow up knowing they can talk to me about anything and that i'm always here for them. my hubby is the type that keeps EVERYTHING to himself. i'm not like that! i blame his family for not having open communication, and my hubby suffers from anxiety to a certain extent. his family situation is a whole nother chapter!
thanks for your input! 
She wasn't with him - had already taken her back to her mom - nm

Sorry...it was okay, but I wasn't blown away.
:(
perhaps I wasn't clear enough for you
My husband accompanied my son to practice. The then assistant coach was trying to make conversation with him. He asked my husband where he worked -- typical question, like how's the weather? My husband answered honestly and left it at that. This guy went on to tell his life story. My husband did not repeat this to anyone other than his supervisor when he realized it was a breach of ethics for him to be around him.
Again, my husband approached the head coach about the situation and without going into detail about the man's criminal history, asked for a transfer. The head coach referred him to the league president, who asked why he needed a transfer. He then told the league president, who does the background checks and would have found out anyway, why he needed the transfer. The league president then informed the head coach, who who told the assistant coach why he decided to remove him from his coaching staff. We certainly did not discuss this with any other parents on the team. We had also requested that the head coach not discuss with the assistant coach until and if it would be necessary. We were hoping to avoid the situation entirely by transferring our child, not the ex-convict's kid. Silly us to think we were doing the right thing?
The last thing we wanted was for any of this to come to light. We tried to handle it discretely. I'm guessing you're also one of those people who likes to make the people trying to do the right thing out to be the bad guy.
She wasn't saying don't talk about it, just
x
Good for them! Thank God it wasn't mandated that they be!
nm
That wasn't implied. One would think that with all the dictations you have
transcribed, you would KNOW that the majority of illnesses are cured by medications made by pharmaceutical companies, and not green-tea types of herbal remedies.
Fine. But that wasn't my point.
There's no need to jump all over someone who wants to help. I applaud the unselfishness.
I forgot to add that what you said wasn't an option...sm
This paper was due in her 1st period and the media center at school doesn't open up until then. She was going to take it on disk and swing by there just in case she could convince someone to open up early for her.
She wasn't going to do Easter for the girls, so they did. sm
It's ok. Every kid, even at that age, regarding you IMHO, deserves a great Easter basket. Get over it and stay out of it.
yes, i sure did andyou can't tell me he wasn't guilty. nm

This wasn't sweeps week.. That is in May
and I suppose you think they just kept all the money raised and bought themselves some new clothes, maybe a few new houses, and just sat there laughing and laughing about the big scam they just pulled. By the way, this telethon also raised money for children in America.
This season certainly wasn't as good as the first 2.
I'll watch in the fall, but the show has a long way to go to make up for undoing the first 2 seasons.
BTW, my first post wasn't in response to yours (sm)
I meant to respond to OP but had been reading your post and accidentally posted under yours. Not arguing your point at all.
No it wasn't, it was pulled off the table to be
reworked and submitted again in January. It won't stop the BYB, they will pay for the licence cause they are making money on all those poor dogs/cats they keep in those cages. That is disgusting and it is inhumane, but those kind of people are deceitful and rotten to begin with and they always find a way.
