Reply to Seven degrees of Separation in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Interesting! I've been thinking about blogging something similar to this. MIne would only result in a list of famous people I've known indirectly (or a FOAF type thing). So that's not very interesting, and I can't think of wording it in any way that someone would care! Haha. But this article is great! I think the most fascinating part was your afterthought about those guys on America's Most Wanted. That's (morbidly) fascinating. Good thing the

Once diagnosed, it is treatable and he can have a pretty normal life. I grew up with a friend who was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at the age of 12. She's 32 now and she really does have a pretty normal life. Even as a child, it didn't take her long to learn to check her glucose levels before every

I guess it would be easier to get confused like that in the summertime when it's light much of the time. I was 12 hours "off" once when I was 14...but I had a good excuse...I was recovering from anesthesia. My dad was in the kitchen cooking...at 6am...? Dad, aren't you going to work? No, he said, I think you're confused...it's 6pm. Yucky, crummy anesthesia.

OK, well I'm a slow reader, or I can blame it on my family who I never seem to be able to get free from! I'm on Chapter 21 and am totally loving it. This is intelligent writing. Smart, smart, smart. It's unpredictable, and keeps us begging for the next chapter, the next turn of events. Love it. Here's the beginning of your fan club Tonya, at least those of us who've spoken up so far! My husband is next in line to read the loose-l

Dreadful. It worries me when there's footage like this that doesn't show how the victims fared in the end. You know they stopped the camera for a reason.

Cade: My thoughts on Tova7's novel-in-progress in Writing JoeUser Forums

In my humble opinion, this book belongs in every bookstore, next to the most popular modern novels. The other night it took me about an hour to print out the first 25 chapters of Tova's novel. She gave me the go-ahead to do so, even though I didn't really ask, I just said, "Hey, can you give me your links so I can print this out?" :) My printer

I think it would be freaky if she was born on my birthday 8/8. And weighing 8lbs 8oz would be pretty amazing. I love the number 8. Hang in there, any day now!

Fantastic. You're a deep thinker and you word it so well. You taught me a new word too, "polyamory." I feel sorry for any children of such people. What a messed-up, foundationless life that would be. Personally, for the sake of everyone remotely related & acquainted with me, I strive to shoo away all of my wayward imaginations...and just stick to the basic husband-wife-child(ren) lifestyle. That's really the way it's meant to be. We

OK, I just gotta say it: So you're at home tonight, admitting to being a bit inebriated, alone with your kitty. Given the punny title on your previous article, you're obviously thinking of sex (who isn't at this time of night?). So....PLEASE stay away from the kitty! Ha! End of shocking comment.

Ooh, I'm just now getting back to this. Thanks for the links Tova. just goto Google Sheesh, I hadn't even thought of taking that route. I could have done that for every chapter without bugging you. Oh well at least this way, I got it straight from the author herself <img src="../images/smi

You know, as I go about my days you pop into my head occasionally. You being a nice, single, young lady...I'd wonder how you hadn't been swept up yet?

Reply to Hope in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I know what you mean...and this topic reminds me of one of KFC's recent articles, "Prayer." If we're paying attention, God does answer our innermost yearnings, be it for comfort, help, knowledge, or anything at all. It's best to pay attention and to give Him credit for the blessings; every parent loves to hear a sincere "Thank You!" Nice article, thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Billy Idol & David Bowie. Their 80's personas. Must be the blonde hair. It takes me a fraction of a second, but I eventually straighten them out. Billy Idol & Billy Joel. The names are similar. But I can keep their faces straight. Bernadette Peters & Madeline Kahn. I swear they're interchangable. foreverserenity & locamama. They seem

I love the sound of where you live. What state do you live in? Ha! Did I really make it sound like a nice place? I guess I was feeling optimistic that day. We're in North Dakota.

I don't like Mondays...Tell my why in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Actually today is an OK Monday so far. I woke up at 3am because I was paranoid that my 3-year-old son was hungry. I woke him up for a potty break then he eagerly accepted a bowl of Rice Krispies. Aaah, yes, a silly thing to do at 3am but that's part of the bliss of being a schedule-less housewife. But what's rotten about Mondays is that my husband goes back to work, m
