Warning: This is a bit of a ramble…doing it very fast….but if you can make it through, would love your feedback! I went to get my wig today. It’s a nice wig, looks just like my old hair, except a little longer. Insurance covers 80% of a “cranial prosthesis,” but once in a lifetime. I went to a Network provider (NP). A NP i
I never play the odds. I lose every time I do. And sometimes when I don't...heh. I'm glad you were able to get your wallet back. It probably was a guy since the bed bath and beyond gift card was still there...what are the chances a woman thief woulda left that?...lol I rarely ever carry cash...so if they steal my wallet...big let down!!

[quote]In reality, women realize that it is less likely someone will kill them.[/quote] Tell that to the congresswoman who he went there to kill. I don't think that's accurate; not in today's society. I'd like to say it is, but the type of men who go on killing sprees are not respecters of gender, or as this latest shooter shows, age. [quote]
[quote] In the other case, the guy was waving a gun shooting off nothing really but his mouth while the school board members were trying to calm him down. Ginger could have set him off when quite possibly he wanted nothing but attention; to be heard. Sometimes they can be talked down. In most cases I believe it's so. There was dialog happening there. But here in this second case, shooting was happening and he meant business. He had to be stopped and stopped quickly for the sake of the rest of
[quote]Her efforts - yes. I do recall that. But not your take on it. I know BFD was hard - but only because of his experience with crises and the reactions he has seen. She was lucky - and brave.[/quote] I'm not sure how you can read the responses on that article and not come away knowing most of the respondents didn't think Ginger did the right thing/smart thing/safe thing. There <span style="font-
[quote]I agree with Doc on the "poo-pooing." We just had another viewpoint T. We just saw it a bit differently. That's all. I don't think anyone said Ginger shoulda done nothing. But what she did do, could have very well cost lives including herself[/quote] No matter which version of the story you go with in this case, the exact same thing could be said of Patricia, or any of the three men who jumped this guy.&nb
[quote]Now though, still Liberal. Maybe not a crazy one, but still on that side boat.[/quote] Ah well, then, that's no fun. Good luck on your job relocation! Hope you get an awesome place....
[quote] It is chaotic and confusing and even the people who are there and acting don't have a clear picture of what is happening.[/quote] Exactly BFD. But I still think acting is better than playing stationary target [e digicons]^_^[/e] [quote]Thanks go out to all the people that jumped in and stopped this lunatic. Perhaps the examples set by the 2 ladies (and the men) wi
[quote]As she explained it in an interview I heard, she dropped to the ground when he started shooting. [/quote] Yes, there seems to be a little discrepancy in the telling .. but I still like the fact she ACTED. [quote]Also, I'd call the man that died shielding his wife a hero and he was an old fellow.[/quote] Absolutely. <span style="font-

"According to the sheriff’s department, Patricia Maisch, who was in the back of the line waiting to get her photograph taken with Giffords on Saturday, rushed to grab the gunman’s magazine after he started shooting. That pause gave time for two others, Roger Salzgeber and Bill Badger, to tackle him to the ground. Then another bystander, Joseph Zamudio, who was leaving the local Walgreens
Ok...this is a show I'm watching...but had to do it to remember how... The embed code is: <hr
[quote]do we even know why the killer did what he did yet? Isn't it kind of early to be playing any blame game right now?[/quote] Yup. Killers are a diverse group. I'd wait and see who/what/why before I started pointing fingers...he might be from your team. She was a bluedog Dem, not exactly popular with everyone in her party.
Yes Karma is still around. I saw her respond on Baker's post when he came back. Like I said, I think they're all busy....they even hired a very talented writer to write Lore at Stardock...omgoodness!! WHAT A JOB! That must be awesome. Gotta run...pick my baby up from after school activity.
Not only an article, but one with poetry! I hope Draginol lets by gone be by gones....and you can start posting here in all your glory... I'm in and out of JU...2 years to MPa, and now other stuff going on keeps me busy....but I get the impression the Stardock employees don't really bother with JU much anymore (outside admins)....but I could be wrong....just a drive-by observation. <s

Wow.
You live at home with your mom right? Of course you're a liberal. Once you get back out on your own, earning a living, that will change. You'll want to keep the money you earn for your family, not give it away. [e digicons];P[/e]
It was a great Christmas for everyone here. Glad to read it was for others as well. Now on to the New Year!!
I use live writer...but it always gives me errors when I try to put in pics and links....what's up with that? I usually have to copy the entire article and paste it into my blog.
Happy New Year....! I am so glad 2010 is O-V-E-R!!!! What a shitty year.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks Bunnahabhain. It's been an awesome holiday so far!!
Merry Christmas JoeUsers! Hope it is a wonderful holiday for each of you. And the new year brings peace, love, and prosperity!! Much love, Tova
[quote]Which men are you talking about? The ones at the table who tried to reason with him? [/quote] Those are exactly who I mean. Talking the man to death doesn't seem like a viable option to me. A man walks in with a gun and we're supposed to "trust" that talking to him will curb his intention? That he is "really" not there to harm anyone? Then why not let everyone go but one person? <span style="f
[quote]Hope you are doing well, T. We are going thru this cut and test and cut some more process with three different friends of ours right now.
