Where did you get numbers that show the overall turnout? I haven't seen offical numbers yet, but the CT Secretary of State is estimating an all time high voter turnout. See this article: Link

Or of listing the church address as the billing address for their home phone so that one can't readily find their address from their phone number. Wouldn't this mean that if they ever had to call 911 from their home phone the ambulance, police, fire truck would be sent to the church? I think the cell

OMG--I need to go back to the fifth grade. I read your title and thought, "Millard Fillmore, that sounds familiar...hmm, wasn't he the host on one of those game shows from the 70s." Oh, my history teacher father would be so proud. Glad to hear that the first day back went well!

Yet they sold two of the vehicles that they had been given, and not to families in need, but instead, for the highest price they could get for them. That's got to be illegal, right? I mean, it has to, doesn't it????

I too am curious how other people's choice effect you. If I decide to have 7 different boyfriends (one for each day of the week) who I believe I love and that they love me--what's it to you? In my opinion, the world would be a much better place if everyone MYOB'd--unless my actions directly effect your well being, I could care less what you think (Disclaimer: the "you" in this sentence is a general "you" and not specifically directed at lifehappens or anyone else. I should al

Reply to The Nice Anti-Semitism in International JoeUser Forums

I'd prefer it if people could make more general comments about how the term "anti-Semite" is used. It's much easier to label your opponent than debate them. It's done all the time. When we (the US) were angry that the French didn't want to support the war in Iraq, we called them "surrender frogs" and

If you want to explain how you come to that conclusion, I'd appreciate it. Sounds more like the average holier-than-thou doublespeak your side of the conversation tosses haphazardly as a catch-all when they are at a loss for words Baker--I'm seldom at a loss for words--I would have thought you'd know th

I forgot to qualify that with "In Rhodesia" at the beginning of the sentence. ZAPU was a Matabele group led by Joshua Nkomo, who has an army called ZIPRA. ZANU, with it's armed forces called ZANLA, was a Shona group led by the terrorist extradordinaire, Robert Mugabe. "Us" would be white Rhodesians and those blacks who fought

Again, you shift from talking about terrorists to talking about "Palestinians". Actually, he shifted from talking about "Arabs" to talking about "Palestinians." You are the one who seems to think that "Arab" = "terrorist". GP--who are you referring to when you talk about their hatred toward "us"? Who is the us? Israel? or the US? (I

As someone who has never had a mac, should I stick withwhat I am used to, or are they better? I don't know that I would say that they are better, but I've never had a mac before this one and I find it incredibly easy to use, and think the photo software that is included is pretty sweet.

Reply to I Need A New Computer - Help! in Personal Computing JoeUser Forums

Hey Sally: I'm the same as you. I use my computer for the internet, music and photos--and not a whole lots else. I also didn't want to pay for a lot of extras. So, I went with a Mac. Now, I don't want to start the whole Mac/PC debate--cause I don't know enough about them. But I adore my new computer (I've had it about 3 weeks), and the price I paid was exactly what the sticker said. I didn't have to add software or hard drives or memory o

Regarding the Golden Ball, voting closed at half-time in the final so wasn't influenced by the head-butt. That's what I initially thought too, but Fifa released a statement saying that voting ended at the end of the game, but they don't know how many poeple voted before the half.
