I believe it's God's love letter to humanity. It's how he speaks to me and let's me know what's on his mind. I agree. To me it is his letter of engagement as his bride. Let's me know how I am supposed to live. How I am to act. Thanks for sharing KFC. AD

Reply to 1000 Calories Down/89,000 To Go... in Diet JoeUser Forums

Unfortunately I have a desk job and a snack bar within fifteen feet of my desk. Challenges indeed, but not insurmountable. I'm a desk jockey too. The beauty of this idea is you don't have to be working out a whole lot. I lost the initial 15 WITHOUT exercise. Not only that I work in a place where ther

Reply to 1000 Calories Down/89,000 To Go... in Diet JoeUser Forums

singrdave, Good job on the first 1,000. In my own life I too wanted to lose weight following the same ideology. Eat less calories. Amazingly I found that if I increase veggies (which I happen to like) and decrease meat (to about 4 meals a week containing). I have lost 25 pounds and am being marveled at my performance on the bike. I haven't taken anything (enhancers) to warrant this. This is solely a result of my diet. Also I stay away f

No, just the opposite, in my opinion. It would create a fascist state where whoever decided who was intelligent held absolute power. I have taken standardized tests, and I don't think I like the idea, not for a moment, that the idiots who design them could end up being the ones who pull the strings. Yes

it is worse than doing nothing as it will just open the borders wider. I agree. I know many farmers where I grew up who struggle to get enough help during harvest time. A time which was usually over saturated by migrant workers from Mexico who come to make money for their families. I'll guarantee you

Baker would this create anarchy? Since there is no way to measure and based upon one's perception of others I would safely say that would eliminate everyone from voting?

Adventure-Dude: Thank you, I will look into those things. I have also used Claiton and Benedryl and clariton seems to be the most effective. I will look into Nettle though. I'm not still breast feeding so I'll see what I can find out. No problem. I just hope you find it helpful. If not that's okay

Charissa, I am by no means a physician nor a nurse but here is what I know. Anti-biotics are a in a sense a 'nuclear bomb' in your system. It kills the good guys and the bad. It kills everyone. Some effective natural ways that I have heard of especially for infants is using either oregano oil or grapefruit seed extract (both found at health food stores). Put a tiny bit in water and then dip your finger and rub it on the infants gu

Reply to $ 3.00 Plus Gas is on Bush's Plate in Politics JoeUser Forums

The answer I want is better gas mileage or alternate fuel vehicles at a reasonable cost. Had Bush done in 2001 what he now talks about, the higher mileage cars would be on the road saving gas. And cars that get 45 miles to the gallon isn't an improvement?

Reply to Tax Cuts or Energy Solutions in Politics JoeUser Forums

Consider this alternative. Restore the Tax rates on the wealthy and use the added federal revenue to fund tax credits to install geothermal, solar conversion or wind generation equipment on their homes or small bisinesses to reduce the demand for foreign energy. This plan would also create jobs and added profits for the companies

The fact is, gas prices are at equilibrium according to Supply & Demand right now. As long as we show we are willing to pay, why should the price be any lower. We want it all, we want it now, and we whine because Papa Government isn't riding in on its white horse to make our lives rosy. Ted, I agree wit

It came from the senate. after being introduced first to a Democaratic Senate in 2001. It wasn't until 2003 that it finally passed. There are things that have been done to raise the consumer awareness and interest into purchasing these energy efficient vehicles. But Col instead of pointing to the American people you point it to Bush.

Charles, this would ask the American people to stop being so selfish and be accountable. I am in agreement. There are things I see that we can do and there are things THEY could be doing as well. I also am a firm believer of clean your house and put it in order before you start telling others how to do it (seems to be unamerican too). I for one am riding my bicycle to work and I try to get my groceries and fuel and everything else in one loop. But

You're the one who's acting as if you somehow got yourself removed and then excepted again. You're the one who seems to have some in here dislike you. You picked a Bush article to proclaim your return with Admin permission instead of making your own article which you are now free to make. Sounds kinda a dumb move to me, but that'

We Americans are spoiled when it comes to gasoline prices. We're so used to being "special" that we get all kinds of upset when things don't go our way. Everyone else in the world pays twice as much (if not more) than we do for gas, yet we scream the loudest when we start feel the pinch too. The only pl
