For dabe, I repeat what I said earlier: Wouldn't it be a nice "utopian" world if higher education were free! We could all go to college and get our degrees and do nothing else?Now our government provides free education for K-12, but that isn't enough for some people. Now they must pay for college. But you know, I don't j

I don't understand. Why did they ban them? I read the article you linked to, but it didn't say why? Salvation Army bell ringers had long been the exception to Target’s standing ba

Target is not the only organization to impose such a ban. The U.S. Posmaster General has also forbidden bell-ringers at U.S. Post Offices. Yes, I am aware of that. Target just changed their position this year, however.

frankly piss me off a bit, considering how I had to work 3 part-time jobs and put myself 8 years behind the earning curve of my peers (my friends who had gone into the work force right out of high school had bought & sold 2 or 3 houses by the time I could afford my first) to get that higher education. I would not want that kind o

Recently, Taget retail stores imposed a nation wide ban on the traditional holiday bell ringers of the Salvation Army. Even as a child, I adored these bell ringers with their red buckets. I remember feeling like they were somehow a part of Santa's helpers. Today, I always give my children some money to put into the red bucket. I take the opportunity to expl

I enjoyed the article TasT, as well as the comments. I think the break down occurs after marriage or a long term relationship. I was thinner when my husband and I dated; so was he. We had children, and we gained weight. We still each have the same basic body structure, but with a few added pounds. We both work out religiously, but let's face it, we will never look like we did when we were dating. Both our waists have a couple of extra inches.<BR

Great article, and thank you for qualifying not all liberals. Most liberals are kind-hearted, caring people. Unfortunately, it is the loonies that have the loudest voices!

You are completely right -- and I attribute that largely to the fact that we women are far less hung up on appearances and are willing to look past a bad body to see the loveable man inside. Tex, there is the real comment with wisdom in it! <img src="../images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"

First let me thank everyone for the lively debate! I live for this type of free exchange of ideas. I am going to try to respond to everyone, now, but since I am still in considerable pain, I will probably keep it short. The only reason I am sitting in this chair now is because I just couldn't stand not being involved in this discussion. LW

Hi guys and girls, it's your favorite deadzombie posting for his beautiful wife, iamheather.

Ok, now I'm a bit worried. All the thermometers are set at 60, they read between 42 and 47 (depending on which room i'm in), the furnace is running non stop, and the pipes that should be very warm to the touch are room temperature. Something is messed up somewhere and I've exceeded my heating expertise. So I turned the furnace of

Outstanding article, Tex. I have been on both sides of the scale, and take it from me...the lower end of the dial makes life so much nicer! Might I add, that the skinny chicks usually, and yes I said usually, are the ones who have not experienced motherhood with all the joys of stretch marks and scars. Have an insightful on me, Tex.
