The Berlin wall was built to keep people in, not to keep people out, Isn't that the point of the fence, to keep the people in the West Bank. Gaza is already ghetto-ized--try getting out if you are a Palestinian--close to impossible. Caging humans can not be the answer to this conflict. Very i
he vote was influenced by the terrorists... sure, democracy... subjective democracy though... Really? You think so. I am pretty sure that the majority of people in Spain were against the war from the start and that Anzar did not have a shot of winning that election well before al Qaeda struck Madrid.
I give my trust freely-once. Once you break it, it takes a lot of work to earn it back. I agree with your assessment that the only person you can count on to always have your back is yourself! Good blog, sally!
That's it! Only ours was Mansion, apartment, Shack, House...the rest is the same!
we'll ahve another Presidency pondering what the definition of "is" is.... oh, please no! not again!
I don't tend to get sucked into television drama, but for some reason, once I saw the commercials advertising FX's new series "Rescue Me," I knew I had to watch it. My brother is a firefighter and I thought it would be interesting to watch a show that supposedly detailed his chosen profession. The preview shows commedian Denis Leary, also a writer for the
Apparently Mrs. Heinz Kerry was being told she said "unAmerican activities" when in fact, she said "unAmerican traits." (I have read this, but not actually seen the tape with the reporter, so if someone could clarify the word after "unAmerican" I'd be grateful). While it doesn't seem like a big deal, the difference between the words "activities" and "traits" is enormous...the first inspires an image of McCarthy-esque America returning with full vigor
Trina, I love your blogs--even when you say it's just going to be rambling--it's always interesting. As for those quizzes...I remember them clearly. It's funny how if it worked out the way I wanted it to--said the right stuff about the right people, I had full faith. But if it said something whacked out, like I was in love with the burger flipper at Burger King, then all quizzes were evil and who thought of those dumb things! Kind of the sa
Creep. and you are looking at the #1 Creep magnet but even in my book, this is an all-time loser!
Martin--I think you are right. I've had one pleasant visa obtaining experience and that was in Ireland--it was the same person who had issued me a visa three years prior and he thought it was funny that I was back and that he found his signature in my passport. I had a hideous time getting a student visa in the UK--it went so far that the US Embassy was encouraging me to declare that my passport had been stolen by the British Government and apply for
Can I ask you how "off" it was? That should have said, "he" didn't even tell me the right age! I thought he was 32, he was actually 37. It's not a huge difference, but I'm 26, and a 6 year difference is a hell of a lot smaller than an 11 year difference. He also lied to me about where he w
Very interesting post, Larry--you even made me chuckle with the image of the Hasidic Jews on the Calvin Klein runway! I had never really thought of it as "fashionable" but you raise interesting points. It's a shame that we need celebrities to tell us when it is ok to accept another group. On an unrelated note--I posted to the Road Map page a few weeks ago, and I can edit the article (which it needs, there's some glaring spelling/gramma
I worked at a headstart daycare a couple years back...there was one family who insisted that all their kids name began with "Ja"...Jaquanda, Jamonica, Jayquan...there were more that I don't remember, and then the littlest went by "fat boy." I could never get anyone to tell me what his real name was! <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Body-Q
Yay, the pictures worked this time! Very nice...I've been toying with the idea of getting one for a while, but I'm afraid once I do, I'll want more...the longer I can put off the first, the better! Otherwise, I'll be covered head to toe! Looks great! (and Dharma's right, you do look different when you aren't pimped out!)
karen--great thread...very funny. i knew a kid in highschool named Yes (actually, you all probably know him, he was on road rules years ago) my mom's maiden name is kane and her mom wanted to name her either "candy" or 'hurri"...she's more of a hurricane than a candy cane...but luckily my grandfather put an end to that one!"
thanks for the encouragment. Kayles...I had an idea that he wasn't always on the up and up...we broke up a few months ago...i was randomly playing with a background check thing on the internet and got some interesting information on him...it didn't even tell me the right age.
i can't see the pictures...boohoo...
Thanks Andy. Right now, I'm just shocked.
wow. you would think after dating someone for 6 months you would know at least something about them... ...but apparently I was wrong... I'm in between the state of "how could I be so stupid" and "how could he be so twisted." it must really suck to lead a dual life...a genuinely dual life...to tell everyone that you are somet
I'd wish you good luck--but I know you don't need luck at all...they'll love you, everyone does! (and blogs are self-indulgent by nature, aren't they?)
it worked for me....your kids are beautiful...
Thanks everyone. by the way... was it with intentional irony that you misspelled "grammar"? forgive me, but it made me giggle No, that would be a matter of typing without thinking--happens frequently in my world!
Geoffrey Bloom, of the UKip, has some unusual reasons for wanting to be on the European Parliament's committee dedicated to women's rights. Bloom's efforts were twarted after he attacked maternity rights, argued that pregnant women should resign from their jobs, and said that women needed to spend more time cleaning behind the refridgerator. When asked why
It's like if I won the lotto I would duck for cover in fear of getting stuck by lightning... exactly.
I am with you on the Murphy's law bit, psychx... ...but it is almost as if I know to be extra weary immediately after something good happens in one aspect of my life because it guarantees that something is about to implode in another aspect.
