Little Whip: Really, you weren't allowed outside during your house arrest? I thought you simply were not allowed to leave your property...Learn something new every day...(good thing I hedge the article with the line "I could be completely wrong.")

Well, it would be for me if she were hanging out there as well. I had thought about that as well...we'll just assume that we are on home confinement in the Stewart house while she is on jail confinement!
Listening to the news, I heard that along with her jail time, Martha Stewart will be confined to her home for five months. Now, I am sure that this is meant to be a punishment in some way, like when you got grounded or put on restriction when you were little, but I honestly don't see it. Let's think about what the Stewart home must look like: lots of l
Oh well, I guess everyine gets to see ALL of my picture albums! Actually, I get a link that says I don't have access to the pictures--so your album is safe
Just for the record--the vote wasn't on the Amendment. Kerry and Edwards were not there for a procedural vote: the motion for cloture on the debate. Had the cloture motion passed, there would have been a vote on the Amendment. So, you are not in fact right. Both Kerry and Edwards said that if the vote had gone to the Floor they would have come back for it.
Very interesting quiz... 2. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (80%) 3. Kucinich, Rep. Dennis, OH - Democrat (80%) 4. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (76%) 5. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (74%) 6. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (74%) 7. Nader, Ralph - Independent (72%) 8. Cobb, David - Green Party (72%) 9. Brown, Walt - Socialist Party (63%) 10.

My roommates and I were just talking about this case last night. It's one of those situations where I just can not come up with the right answer. Each scenerio in my head is either too harsh, or not harsh enough. At what age are you aware of the consequences of your actions? When do you understand that death is forever, that you can't take it back? Did these boys have any grasp on the reality that they were creating? Should the government be bend
admitted to trying to cheat on you but hasnt been sucessful yet This is the part that bothered me the most...I would be angry about any infidelity, but if he's trying to cheat, going out of his way to look for someone...he's gone. It's bad enough when it "just happens."
Based on your answers to the previous questions, your overall score on a conservative/liberal dimension of moral attitudes--compared with the general population--puts your percentile at 69, with the 99th percentile indicating the most liberal possible rating. Another way of explaining this is to say that out of 100 randomly-
Apparently, we are now going to see Man U play AC Milan at Giant Stadium...hmm, so much for wanting to see Neil Lennon. Oh well, it should be fun anyway, and really, that's all that matters!
My mom is sort of new-age, but not in a bad way. At least I don' t think it is bad. My father, however, would like to have her commited for it. My mom practices yoga, goes to spirit channeling classes, is a Reiki-genius, and in general is very in tune to her spiritual side. I think it is very fascinating, and I am always drilling my mother
I think my sister-in-law might actually kill me for letting you post that on the internet...
Brad: Now that this feature is in place, can previously banned people return under Visitor status? I'm simply being curious. Thanks for the updates, and for the free blog site...you and Karma are certainly not thanked enough!
The pub I worked in had mystery shoppers who would come in once a month to rate us. If the server got a good score, you'd get a bonus of $25 --not bad if you think of it as a tip on a table of 2. The thing was, we could always spot them. They would call first and ask where we were locate, how best to get there, where the metro was, how much a taxi from [insert random hotel name] would be. Then they would come in, wander around checking out the scen
I don't know the reason, but "risk free gains" is where I get the majority of my referrals from--it's weird.
We said that if our marriage could survive this past year, we'd be able to survive anything. I'm inclined to amend that to 'if our marriage can survive the past year AND the subsequent reunion we can survive anything'. I hadn't ever thought about that, Karen, but it makes complete sense. I have faith
Teegstar-- I LOVE YOUR WRITING. I just had to tell you that! My phone has no name, but my roommates phone is named Penny. When my roommate bought a car last year my boss named her car after Warren Beatty's jet, "Indefensible." Beatty said that he didn't need a jet, but wanted one and that was why he chose the name. My boss said my roommate didn't need a car, and, in fact it was a waste of money, thus it was dubbed "Indefensible," o
Thanks for all the comments. I would take smart over pretty any day as well...in fact, I had never really considered it as much of an option. My roommate thinks the comment was hysterical because she says she's never seen the bimbo part of my personality--to which I kindly informed her there was no bimbo part, thank you very much! Trina--I wish it has been stupid highschool boys who gave me the nickname, but it was my female friends
As always Mig--brilliant! I was actually talking to one of my friends about the Middle East the other day. She started talking about a well known Palestinian academic who she thought was absolutely amazing. I agreed to an extent--he was amazing when he was talking about Palestinians, but when he started talking about Jewish people, he was rather anti-semitic. I was trying to point out exactly what you said in this article. He wasn't helping anyone
If I was ever asked if I thought I had brains or beauty--without a moment's hesitation I would answer brains. It's not that I think I'm ulgy, it's just that I think I have average looks and (hopefully) above average intelligence. I would wager a guess that my friends would say the same about me. In fact, one of my o
First, I want to make it clear that I am a fervent support of the rights of gays to marry. That said, the recent tactics used by some groups lobby Capitol Hill on the Family Marriage Act (FMA) have me saddened and outraged. FMA will be brought to a floor debate in the Senate this week. It is expected to be a very heated, very emotional debate. It comes a
Kayles: My hometown is like that, but I've found that I gravitate to small communities. Even here in DC, it feels like everyone knows everyone else... I'll go out and someone will say to me, "I met this really great irish guy bartending at Smith and Wollensky," and I'll respond "oh yea, well, Sean's great isn't he?" I'd prefer not to think I'm a lush, just that the restaurant community in this city is sm
how did I miss this thread? Must have been while I was on vacation? I'm in dharma. Kayles--the books are so much funnier than the movie! You should definately read them. Fiedling also has a new book out (it's got a martini glass on the cover, but I don't remember the title) which is supposedly completely different.
great. i had been attributing my headaches on non-caffeine days to my obvious physical need for the substance. so now i guess those headaches are more indicative of a neurological disorder. yay for me. or maybe since your tiny, it takes a lower amount of caf
1/ fell in love ? I think Macky summed it up pretty well--it was blissful hell. 2/ got drunk ? I don't remember the first time at all--but I do remember the first time I puked--not a pretty sight--it is also the last time I threw up due to alcohol. Sometimes I'm a quick study. 3/ drove a car ? The first time I crashed into a car was when I was six and riding my father's riding lawnmower up and down the street until I cras
