A nice way to spend a Saturday! in Family Photos JoeUser Forums

Yesterday we went with my husband to one of his Ping Pong Tournaments out of town. The kids and I were pretty much in once we found out it was going to be near the beach! It was loads of fun! <embed width="448" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="<a href="http://i190.photobucket.com/remix/player.swf?videoURL=http%3A%2F%2Fvid190.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fz249%2FForeverSerenity2003%2F821d1cb9.pbr&hostname=stream190

[quote]Perhaps a Dominatrix could help you to overcome this castration anxiety... you'll shock your family when you return home in a plastic gimp suit, but you will finally be free of this fear of strong women. In no way am I afraid of strong women, I'm afraid of women whose political views are so out of touch with what the mainstream US wants or believes the country should be doing.[/quote] Sancho,nice response to such a crass comment!

Reply to Poll: Would You Eat This? in Blogging Stardock Forums

Bad cook at that place Tex! Not just the color but it looks unappetising! Momijiki - that looks tasty, I love Chinese and Japanese food! I've cooked with cucumber before, and I usually add it last minute so that it isn't soggy, it is really good in some dishes.

Reply to If you don't Tithe, do you go to hell? in Religion Stardock Forums

[quote]I think that's wrong. If you don't tithe, no-one should be publicly saying anything about it. But if you are a MEMBER of a church that you knew going in believed in tithing, you should be held accountable for it, in the way the Bible states that sins should be confronted.[/quote] Why not? I don't tithe, and I see nothing wrong in saying I don't. I wrote about this because of a couple of programs I watched on tv on sunday and it was about family and their finances and what

Support my 5K Walk in Misc JoeUser Forums

I have signed up to do a 5 K walk - that's 3 miles, or so I'm told, for the American Heart Association of Greater Orlando. This walk takes place on September 20 at Lochhaven Park. I'm looking forward to it, with some trepidition too since I've not been consistent with my work out but I am determined to do and I will! So, I'm trying to raise $100, which is my own personal goal since the regular goal of $300 is kind of high for some people to donate these days! </p

[quote]faith is the point[/quote] Exactly, great point! Faith, having it, no matter what form or shape it comes in, that is the point. Without it, so many of us would give up on our lives, and when someone comes to that point, I hope they can reach within themselves to find that faith, to reach out, beyond pride, to get the help they need. I think we all have experienced some type of or lack of having at one point or another, unless you're super rich of course! &nbs

[quote]I do feel like our church is pretty low key about it and doesn't put a lot of pressure on individuals.

If you don't Tithe, do you go to hell? in Religion JoeUser Forums

I can't imagine going to a church or being a member of a church where they tell you that if you don't tithe, you go straight to hell, or someting like that! I am aware that there are some churches who do force their members to tithe, I think that is wrong. There are also those out there, who if they don't force memebers to tithe, they dictate how much money their members should give to them. I also think that is wrong. When I was a regular member at a church,
