Made the mistake of buying it without seeing it first. I want my money back!

I was not impressed with this movie. Felt more like soft porn and a coward who doesn't have the balls to stand up to the court then some oddly related book/love.

Thanks for the recommendation!

I'd really like to know where the whole color vs no color came from. I dream in color too, and every single person I know dreams in color. I know we aren't all that special!

Recently, not much. My schedule has been wonky, so it didn't do me any good.

Before that, many things... LOL

Was that even legal? Aren't Ospreys a protected bird? Might get in touch with the local news station, pull in some local animal groups, see if public humiliation, at least, might help.

Food stamps in Texas work the same way. I think I got 30.00 a month. Just for myself. I fully agree that's no way to live. Even drinking water via the tap, there's not really a good way to eat.

I also agree that it is my tax money, and that's why I use it, and unemployment when I needed it. I put into it, and I wanted it back.

But, I and others who have used it, also got back on their feet and got off it. You did as well. There are plenty of people who have no plans doing so. A friends ex d-in-l is playing the system, and the military as well as she and he play games back and forth. She's never been able to afford to have kids, and holds a job a week tops, once a year. She'd got 4 kids, and fuilly admits, if she could find a guy, she'd have more. That is wrong, and that type of person needs to be sterilized, especially if she's going to plunk her butt on welfare.

I was constantly appalled at the folks who have Lexus SUV's sitting outside the welfare place. I counted 2 and a mercedes benz and a hummer, one day while I was sitting in the waiting room. Sell the dang vehicle, get something used, and get to work. The money spent on that alone would feed a group of people. Quit milking the system. The gal in the office said they were directed to ignore the vehicles, even though they knew that it was owned and belonged to the people sitting there waiting for their money.

Gotcha! Thanks for the update.

Really?

Unless you're talking about the demons of Hinduism, and they're aren't pagans, except in the non-Christian sense.

That doesn't really mean much though. Yeshua, Jesus, Joshua are fairly common, then and now. So it could be any guy by that name.

Besides, what person then and now gets their gravestone engraved in multiple languages?

An airhorn would come in handy!

I thought it had been labeled legit, but not from that time period. The embalming and stuff used were correct, but it's not as old as the time period that's claimed... ?

Awesome Abra!

But like Ruth brought up, don't forget to ground. I know I've had experiences were I was totally out of it, if I didn't ground. As in I don't remember how I made it through the day, and I was in the car. Not good.

Always have been, in the literal sense. There was only a short stint in the city and there's no way in Hel I'll ever do that again!

Spiritually, and officially, during a Midsummer ritual 15 years ago. Was raised Atheist, and got into and enjoyed looking into all of the similarities of the various religions, then tracking the stories back to their more original state.

I'm an eclectic shamanic practitioner, and weave various belief systems together. I enjoy and continue to pick up various religious books, and wander my way through them.

Ditto! LOL!

Food stamps, yes. I know perfectly well I couldn't afford to have kids. Therefore I didn't do it.

Mob stated it simply. If you get on it, you get temporarily, at least, sterilized. If the gov.t is paying to support you and the children you have, then it isn't any more expensive for the gov.t to sterilize you then it would be to keep paying for all the extra children. If you don't want to be sterilized, even temporarily, then you don't have to get on welfare.

I'd also like to add, having sat at the welfare offices, that everyone who gets one of those checks, or debit cards, need to be required to take a drug test, before the funds dop, and randomly. After all, if I have to take one to have a job, then they need to be taking one to get money/food etc.

Now this I can see and fully support.

So, essentially she's blamed for the rape? Why isn't the rapist getting a vasectomy if he rapes a woman? At least that would stop any abortions from rape.

There are plenty of women out there who would be happy to get their tubes tied, without ever having children. However, the government isn't really going to allow that to happen as it cuts into the breeding population should something like war decimate a population.

I have a friend who has a history of miscarriages, with a family of women who have miscarriage after miscarriage. She had 4 miscarriages before finally having a child. All of the women in her family had one girl child, before their doctors would let them have a tubal. Her grandmother died giving birth to her mom because she hemorraged. Allie didn't want to really have the kid, but her doctors wouldn't let her get her tubes tied until she had one. Then they still made her get written permission from her husband to get her tubes tied.

I've been looking at some small teepees for something easy and different. Thought that would be fun. Or a yurt. The smaller ones can be put up by a single person. Lots of room inside.

Condoms, and birth control pill AND foam. All together. Didn't work. Since I'd had heart surgery 2 months before, I terminated it. So, again, it doesn't ALWAYS work, and forcing someone to carry is wrong. Period. I haven't found anyone here who will do a tubal as a permanent way to stop a pregnancy because I am a healthy 30 year old who might(not) want kids. The doctors won't agree to it.

It was 9.00 a month when I had insurance. But I don't have insurance, as my job doesn't provide. Therefore it's 50-100.00 a month. Not cheap.

I can't use the 9.00 Wal-Mart generic as it makes me rage, literally. Still haven't figured that one out, but when I have the urge to kill someone (in this case it was one of the goats, who if I could have broken his neck, I would have) with my bare hands, and that's the only medication I'm on, and there's no reason to cause that kind of rage, then I get off it, and can't use it.

Same here. I don't care, and so long as I'm not doing anything that hurts, like horseback riding, I generally only wear a bra when I have to dress up for work or whatever.

People fixate on the idiotic things. If we spent half as much actually working for peace as we do griping about boobs, nipples, and the money spent on them, this world might be a better place.
