Update on Kim Potter: Sentenced to TWO years only— family is outraged. She’ll likely be released sooner, for time already served. I admit I’m a little surprised. However, a BART officer killed a black man at the Fruitvale (?) station, and only received two years…it appears the rulings are based on intention, not outcome. But if someone breaks the law, trespasses, and is injured or dies in your swimming pool, you’re liable. America needs to re-shuffle the deck and deal out a fairer game for all. Just saying..
I’mniceI’mnotI’mfriendlyI’mhostileI’mkindI’mmean. That is your nickname that strikes. Just telling it like it is, like you do. In case you ever wondered if you hurt people…you do.
Thanks Karl…also for the vintage Almond Joy/Mounds commercial. I remember it well. (My grandpa, Dad, and I would sing it in unison when it played…Dad would laugh heartily afterward…what memories). I’m glad you’re here too, Karl. Good luck with love…remember— the lightness of a dove and the wisdom of an owl…
Awhile ago there was a program about manned space travel to Mars. It was (possibly still yet) being considered as a “one-way only”, with a system aboard for the setting up of a lifetime (for the individuals involved) habitat. It’s entirely possible, so said the program, and get this— no shortage of educated, capable professionals from every field volunteering.*
*One NASA program in existence requires astronauts to also be MD’s with a first discipline in psychiatry, fluent in four languages, the epitome of perfect health…among other skill levels.
So, I’m wondering if other members see this: sometimes a post is just redundant, or it seems like the answer is so general or obvious it’s surprising it was put out there. I get it that we’re all different, and see the world in multiple ways, but seriously, it’s like saying, “Please vote if you believe water is wet”.
I’ve been interested in the Leslie Van Houten (“The Tate-LoBianca” ‘Helter-Skelter’ murders) story for a long time. I was ten when this happened. Although she has been eligible for parole multiple times, and three times approved by the board, her release has been firmly denied by every California Governor involved. Except for a one-year release in 1970 (some kerfuffle in legal mumbo-jumbo..) she has been incarcerated for over 50 years. Part of me feels some level of pity, and she actually has some staunch supporters, believe it or not, I fully agree with the denials. Some things you don’t get a break on (her involvement in the killings was exponentially grisly…) and the original sentence WAS gas chamber, but commuted to life. Prosecutors and police promised the American public that she, and others, would never again taste freedom. I support their on-going promise. Bravo Brown, Brown, and Newsom. (Hope I got those right)
I’m just wondering— because one can’t really trust what “the news medias” may say— what do the people most affected (by Mr. Windsor) think and feel, overall/majority- that is, the citizens, patrons and wards of The United Kingdom? As far as I can tell, Americans are tending to want SOME accountability/punishment, while a percentage is arbitrary. How about it, UK? Sympathetic? Vituperative? Non-chalant? Thanx for input…
voice recognition keyboard Then both hands are free…switch it up with vinyl gloves, maybe…get a Hiatsu mat- full length with warm vibration…be daring… (and you thought all I knew was “Hints From Heloise”)
Certainly NOT! I will not stand for you cheating with the person I’M planning on cheating with! (And neither will the person we’re BOTH planning on cheating with… )
Not quite sure just exactly what you’re asking- but here are some “efficiency” solutions: Have a copy of every key you own, and keep it as a set. Put it where you will NEVER forget (be creative..) Guys—keep a spare car key AND house key IN YOUR WALLET. (You always have your wallet on you…) At the gym— have a combination lock. If you’re not good at remembering #’s, have them hemmed small, on a patch, and firmly sewn on the inside of your sweat pants, sweat shirt/top, or swim trunks. OR, the inside of your cross-trainer shoe. Think creatively. Keep all the items in your home that you use most AT EYE LEVEL. This goes for dishes, grocery items, bathroom items…If you don’t have a garage or carport, get a cover for your car. They’re about a hundred dollars, and double the life/durability of your car. Buy second hand++it’s frequently BETTER. Don’t worry about what the other guy thinks-he’s NOT paying your way! Save money, live simply. Go out twice a week, not daily. Pubs are wonderful, but a bad money drain. BTW, I’m not talking out-of-school. All these efficiency hints are things I do, and it’s working.
