I've got to get back to Aruba!! I've been travelling by myself for a while. I love tropical destinations. Now if they would only stop that "single supplement"!!!!!!!
Just wondering. I've been watching the racing channel lately and it just looks so strange. Older racing footage doesn't show them riding like that. Now, just so they don't change anything about the way they drive the pacers and trotters!!!!
Does anyone know why jockeys started riding in races like they are almost standing up? They don't sit in the saddle anymore. What's with that???? Anyone?????
First let me say I am for a woman's choice in this matter.
What irks me is those that are against abortion make exceptions. If they are against abortion, then there should be NO exceptions, not even to save the life of the mother. I would like to see who could sacrifice a person you have known for years for someone who hasn't been born yet. Those who make exceptions in some cases are practicing SELECTIVE abortions and that is the worse kind of abortion.
Sometimes I think it is just the idea that they will be less than "perfect" mothers and are afraid to chance it. They just might be "worse" than their own mothers were.
Two longtime government engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up. A woman walked by and asked what they were doing.
“We’re supposed to find the height of the flagpole,” said the first one, “but we don’t have a ladder.”
The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a few bolts, and laid the pole down. Then she took a tape measure from her pocket, took a measurement, announced, “Eighteen feet, six inches,” and walked away.
Both men stood there for a moment, before one said to the other, “that’s just like a woman. We ask for the height and she gives us the length.”
Dating can be an enjoyable experience. Chatting about this or that. You can piece together later whether you thought the experience was interesting, just idle chatter or had some redeeming qualities. Most people have interesting lives and experiences. You don't have to marry them to enjoy their company.
I will be having my digital breast screening tomorrow. Some say this type of screening is better than the routine breast mammogram. Believe it or not one doctor says it is and another say's it isn't. I have breast cancer in my family so I'm trying this. Of course an MRI of the breast is next to impossible to get.
Does this mean that all of our actions good and bad are pre-destined, like roles we have been given to play on the stage of life? If that's the case, will we all be absolved from fulfilling our destiny and welcomed by God?
Me too in this vein. What's any more stupid than having a marriage of years that has produced children annulled so you can marry again. I think we'd be better off without things like this.
Way before they prescribed pills for the depressed, my late cousin who was a sensitive soul just couldn't seem to deal with life. I asked him once why he drank so much and he said he liked the way it made him feel. I wish I could tell him now that I know what he meant.
Sometimes life just beats you down. Some people bounce back, others just can't deal. I just heard that a member of the church I go to hung himself. I wonder why nobody, not even in the church, recognized his depression. I didn't know him personally, but how can we reach out to these people, offer comfort and walk a few miles with them. So sad.
