[quote]A question, though: what do you mean when you say 'dress your age'? I'm not quite sure. I've always worn jeans, hightops and tshirts. My nephews and nieces dress similarly but I'm not going to change my ways just because someone thinks it might not be age-appropriate. I think this is a very grey area.[/quote] LoL! yes, a very grey area! LOL! I meants that thee are some people out there, particularly us women who dress to go with the trends of the time and their choice of

Naw they wouldn't understand Mark. Just ignore them when they make those comments. I guess for some people, they are trying to be funny. Anyway, it's so nice to see you!

[quote]This year we are having turkey, gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, spaghetti squash - cooked with bacon and onions, yum - rolls, cranberries, and I think I will attempt some sort of asparagus, but I've never made it before, so I hope it turns out. Also pie - apple/blueberry, and pumpkin. Too much? I hope so![/quote] Yum! I like that! Good luck with the asparagus. I've never cooked it before either but I love to eat it.

[quote]it seems like women have always been torn by feelings of inadaquecy! If it helps, us "mature" women seem to find peace with ourselves as we age....some of it is the realization that we can't stop the aging process, so we have to accept the wrinkles, ect. The other piece of it is seeing in others all their positive traits, thereby helping a person to accept themself.[/quote] Oh yes! The process does get better the older we become, most of the tim

[quote] gays can bash, hit, do anything they want to because they are suppossed to be weak and sissified.[/quote] I disagree with that statement. Though I know you said it to make a point. I do agree that if they, the gay persons involved, assaulted someone, then yes, they should be held for that offense. It is after all a free county and anyone can protest what they don't like, without violence being involved hopefully! While I do support gay rights, as

So far, I've bought my turkey, this year it is a 22 pounder which I got for a $1 a pound - it must be since it cost $22! I've also bought my ham. I wasn't going to do ham until Christmas, but when a pregnant daughter asks for ham, you give her ham! I kind of have an idea of what I'm cooking but not quite, if you know what I mean? I do know I will have the basic, Turkey, Ham, Pototo Salad, Stuffing, Pies

Underworld rocks! True Vampire movies rock! I'm not a fan of Twilight because having heard from my two friends at work, who are die hard and loves the books, I hope they won't be disappointed like you when they see the movie which they both did last night! It would be interesting to see if they liked it or not too.

[quote]Republicans lost this election and they generally don't need this kind of advice. The article would have been timely if it came out after Kerry was defeated. Or it could be revised to accommodate the left wing mobs who are protesting the democracy of Prop 8.[/quote] Or when Bill Clinton lost couple years ago! It could go for anyone, even the HS Student Government race dontcha think...either way, Repulicans are no different, so it is good advice in general!

Her article is entitled "How to avoid post-election depression if your cadidate doesn't win". <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:

[quote]I think one of the worst things I could do for my kids, though, is to make them feel like they are above the rules or somehow superior to everyone else. I spend too much time with them to even begin to pretend that they're perfect. Heh.[/quote] Gosh, I'm just catching up! Still be mindful that those kids could still be trouble though. I'v head my fear share of kids who are bullies and like you have had to go to the teacher, Principal etc. I hate that they alway

[quote]Very thoughtful piece, thank you. I do think many people either walk on eggshells around race issues, ignore them, minimize them, or blame others for them. What is so often missing is self examination. Why are we so loath to take a good hard look at ourselves? [/quote] Thank you. It was a great article and an interesting one she wrote! I don't kow why, perhaps many don't like the reflection that is thrown back at them. As the writer of the piece said, we might
