Great post. Although it is likely to attract controversy and more of the usual about homosexuality, your article is a thoughtful and well written look at the current situation. I say, Rock on Muggaz!
Trinitie: I'll have to remember that *Muggaz comment = good* Thanks.
Gideon: As always, I enjoy reading your thoughts. I'm really not sure where I stand on this issue, although your plan sounds reasonable. I do agree that we must work towards making them ready to enter the world where they will be expected to make a living (and hopefully a life) for themselves. Great post.
JakeD: . . . um . . . Okaaaayyyy . . . thanks for your . . . umm . . . comment . . . I think?
Wow, this is insane. OK, so I cry at sappy movies (but not always!), I wear slippers (Hawaiian slang for flip-flops) with my dresses I cut my nails short and don't paint them because I don't have the time or inclination to deal with that crap, I don't have "girlfriends" that I get together with for pillow fights, but I do have two cute little boys that I always have time for, I think its neat if my bra a
Gerry Atrick: For some reason caffeine never really bothered my little guy. The alcohol was what got to him. (Relax, everyone, I'm only kidding) Thanks so much for your comments. Kingbee: Nah, you're not. Although I think you pretty much mopped the floor with an argument I gave about something when I f
Sweet dreams, Dharmagrl.
Dharmagrl: I understand what you are saying completely. There's so much I have yet to figure out. I just feel like I need to believe in something bigger and better than myself. You have to know, though, that I have times of mad doubting. My take on it is that we are all in this together, just trying to find a way, and I do believe that we each have to find our own way. I d
Wow, that's really awful. Respecting your right believe as you wish, but also being a Christian (if a rather poor one), I wonder if Mr. Church had read Ephesians 6: 4 where it reminds fathers not to provoke their children? People do sick things.
*singing* Gideon is a Points Whore!
Ouyay on'tway etgay wayaay ithway isthay, izownerbay!!!!

Again, I have to say . . . the gun is part of the whole "thing". Yes, it is. Don't know why. Dharmagrl: Yea! I'll bet you're counting the hours. My husband called today and said his leave *might* be moved up. Right now it's at the 8 month mark, but they could send him home tonight and that would be just fine with me!
Good point. But still . . . you gotta love a guy in uniform. Well, you don't, actually, but . . . what was my point again?
4D: You should publish that list. It could help a lot of unkempt, lonely guys out!
Dylan: Thank you so much for your comments. He drives me nuts and yet I adore him. I like to read about the lives of others as well. Guess it's just human curiosity! Dharmagrl: They do sound like two of a kind. I'm glad to know someone else who knows all about the Dav Pilkey scene. My son was asking the people at the PX if they had the new book that's supposed to be comi
Gideon: Sounds bad. I hate hot almost as much as I hate cold. Luckily for me, Hawaii is pretty much the same all year round. We don't even have AC. I just open the windows and let the tradewinds in. Ahhhhh . . . nice and breezy.
vincible: ?? I would have gone with "eons" or "centuries", but OK . . .
Jill: Thanks for your comments I can see your point, but I still disagree. Would we tell someone requiring oxygen that they cannot bring it with them to Starbucks or the grocery store or a clothing shop? Of course, not. They need it. The same goes for the infant. When I breastfed my son, I tried to time things so that I would not have to stop for a nursing sess
Gideon: Thanks. Hmmm . . . I hadn't considered that before . . . it's starting to all make sense now . . .
dharmagrl:
trina p: Thanks for your comments. I do not mean this post as a slight to women who are unable or choose not to breastfeed. I am sure that you are an awesome mother and are taking excellent care of your baby girl. My intention is primarily to draw attention to the plight of nursing mothers who are subject to discrimination when breastfeeding their babies. Please do not allow anyone to make you feel infer
dharmagrl: I loved your story! I have respect for people who have worked hard to earn the rank that they have, make no mistake about that, but geez . . . it doesn't mean they can treat others like crap. You know, everyone's gotta start somewhere. They didn't enter the service as a CPT. BTW, Congratulations to you and your husband on his promotion! <img src="../images/smiles/events.g
Kingbee: Thanks for your comments. I must be on to something here if YOU agree with me! Nice graphic as well. Gerry Atrick: I wholeheartedly believe in the benefits of breastfeeding. I did not breastfeed my seven year old when he was an infant, and he was sick often and had ear infections constantly. My three year old never had a single ear infection. He was sick maybe once
dharmagrl: Thank you! lawn-mower virgin I don't know if grass will ever fear me. It knows my weaknesses. <img src="../images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0
