RE: Should we give christmas presents to inmates?

Actually there are programs available that reach out to the inmate's family! The same people that do the Angel Tree do take care of them.

RE: Should we give christmas presents to inmates?

Cell phones? (It's actually a federal offense in the state of Texas for an inmate to possses a cell phone or even for someone visiting the inmate to carry one into the building) Spas? Gyms? Cable t.v....... I don't know what prison or county jail you've been to but that's not at all what's going on in Texas!

I agree with the other guy, what if they're innocent? It's been my personal experience that those who are incarcerated have little to look forward to and tend to become angry and desolate during the holidays. Why not do something nice for them to lift thier spirits and show them that someone actually cares, it does make a HUGE difference in thier disposition, promise!

NORTH VS. SOUTH

This was too funny not to share!!

NORTH VS. SOUTH

The North has Bloomingdale; the South has Dollar General.

The North has coffee houses; the South has waffle houses.

The North has dating services; the South has family reunions.

The North has switchblade knives; the South has Lee Press-on Nails.

The North has double last names; the South has double first names.

The North has Indy car races; the South has stock car races.

The North has Cream of Wheat; the South has grits.

The North has green salads' the South has collard greens.

The North has lobsters; the South has crawfish.

The North has the Rust Belt; the South has the Bible Belt.

FOR NORTHERNERS MOVING SOUTH:
If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them; just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.

Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store. Do not buy food at this store.

Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's" is plural possessive.

Get used to hearing "You ain't from round here, are ya?".

Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later on how to use it.

Don't be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They can't understand you either. The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective "big'ol truck" or "big'ol boy." Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.
The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper.

Be advised that "He needed killin'" is a valid defense here.

If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever say.

If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there.

Do not be surprised to find that 10-year-olds own their own shotguns. They are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how to aim.

In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn is to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.

AND REMEMBER:

If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call 'em biscuits.

RE: How many pets do you have and what kind

3 demented cats! They really have no idea they are actually cats! Kids in fur coats is more like it! Sir Stirling MacInnes and his two offspring, Ozzie and Smokie. Those are my babies!

RE: Did you ever?

RE: what do you do

Here's what I did... Get a P.O. Box, a private bank account, start stashing away money, go and get and apartment then a restaining order and just LEAVE once all has been set into motion. If he messes with you he goes to JAIL and then he REALLY can't mess with you then!

Look, no one can help you until your ready to help YOURSELF!

RE: what do you do

This is a little drastic, but think about it.... If you died tommorow would you have lived a truley happy life? Think about it, and do what makes YOU happiest!

Apes

RE: what do you do

This is the closest thing to hug I could find on here. Sweety, it's been my experience that you have to do what's best for YOU! Children are very perceptive, they probably have an idea that something is amiss and everyone would probably be off out of the situation. I know that things are harder than they sound and it will super tough, but in the long run you and your family will be SO much happier.

However there are the GREAT ones too, I have been hanging around in here for almost two years now I guess, on and off, and I've met some GREAT people and have lifelong friendships with some!
