  1. CAMPANULA starts with a C ... keep up!
  2. I was going to say...lowrider nailed it, it started with a C.... then I hit post after I put the link on... but I knew, you knew you were right!
  3. Looks like a white CAMPANULA Bell Flower There are many shapes. The one in your bouquet is beautiful. They are also called Canterbury bells - all sorts of shapes, with colors in purple, white, and pink. Double and single blooms ... http://www.localharvest.org/campanula-seed-medium-pink-canterbury-bells-C22370?r=fr
  4. Cute... This is impossible!!!! ...This test has been given to hundreds of people NO ONE EVER got BETTER!
  5. True... Ironically I was told by a physiologist once that many with ADHD, who are not diagnosed, do end up "self medicating" ... not always the best way to have a productive society... My ADHD child had pain medication for wisdom teeth removal, and was bouncing off the walls. It would have put most people to sleep ... for days... not him. Wonder how Phelps acts with pot? Speed- Ritalin- improves concentration and slows down ADD/ADHD ... what would pot do?
  6. I think kids need to know there is a household budget....and most purchases mean there were two or three other things that are no longer an option to purchase. Most families have a set amount of money - once used; one must wait to save more before the next "want" can be fulfilled. I would go with your plan. Also, I recently heard about Michael Phelps...perhaps you and Snow White have too. Just a thought - swimming there is little that can be destroyed, no powerful engines to propel one to ones death - or over a three foot jump! Michael Phelps ADHD is not an attention defic
  7. Nope. I knew what would happen if I did not follow the rules. I had been told my whole life, you do what's expected of you and you'll have a good life. You will be given privileges. Other adults will help because they will reward you for doing what you are supposed to. Society has rules and you fit into them, life will provide opportunities. I think if we don't teach our children what they should do...they end up in a ditch... or is that "hitting rock bottom?" My parents did not need to be, or want to be my friend. I am so tired of parents crippling their children by no
  8. I voted for him today too! It's a trend.

    Did anyone

    I did ...about 30 minutes ago. So do you think it is true? Does the US Marshall's office have a warrant for his arrest? Sucks to be him! I have a basic line... no caller ID or extras.
  10. I try to vote against incumbents ...I just think after a few years absolute power corrupts. I wish all positions had term limits …we citizens are not disciplined enough to vote them out …or, no one will run against them because it cost a lot to get name recognition greater than an incumbent. It would be nice if we had enough people who truly wanted to serve in a capacity to help their community, then go back to their real job… not become a carrier politician. Serve a term, then go home.

    CAR TAG

    OMG... I just told my husband exactly that on Sunday! Three weeks ago he did not believe me that everyone was getting a new license plate... I was quacking about what the cost must be. So, Sunday he said, “You were right everyone is getting a new plate!” I’d much rather we.... oh.... I don't know... keep more police, pay off a bond, fund a Park… instead of giving out new plates. Other states I lived in had several license plates based on when the car was registered. The really old ones were almost a status symbol. It’s not like the GA plates are all the same now, with al
  12. Because the airlines have reduced capacity the flights are full. The "vacation" we took was only because my relatives had a wedding to go to in the South, so we went and bunked up with them at a lake house where they were staying. Then they came to our house ...They wanted to go to a few local sites... they treated all of us. They treated us to dinner twice ... which is double what we have done the last 6 months! I am glad some are traveling and supporting the economy! Airlines plan to reduce flying in 2012, keep capacity in check Despite continued demand, airlin
  13. I agree with all you said! I have always like the, “… wait on your Boaz.” Thanks for posting it. …policies such as allowing people to carry their children on insurance to the age of 26 further perpetuates the laziness of American youth. You said it! What about if those kids are married? ... I always told my kids, “Once you get married, you are now your own family. I will not be paying for your school, insurance, or to live in my basement or anywhere else. Now the government comes in and says nah...even if your kid gets married, you can still keep them on your insurance

    Hoarding

    Some are affected more than others. My grandparents were extremely thrifty due to the depression. I'll never forget finding a cigar type box under the kitchen sink that had rubber banded bundles of the slivers of soaps that are hard to use. When we were at my grandparent’s home visiting, she put out the "good soap" or a fresh bar. Once "company" was gone, out came the small slivers that were stacked, and held together with a rubber band. That way they could use all the soap! (This was in the late 70's! How much was a bar of soap then? Maybe 20 cents?) My grandparent's house had

  16. You're baaaaaaadddddd!
  17. I watch more national news than local news... I get tired of the same stories… and it bugs me how they will pop a vein to find some person, who knows a person, who talked to a person, who lives in Atlanta… to connect it with Atlanta viewers! UGH! Much of the news I hear is on the radio in the morning... so I have not heard about her since they said she was going for rehabilitation. That being said...I wonder if the news stations are getting interest, and questions, through their web sites. They probably monitor what stories viewers are watching on the internet? We live in a ti

    Hoarding

    That is what I have always wondered. Wouldn't some medicine for OCD, and or depression, manic depressive type pills help get these people through this debilitating way they are stuck living. The shows I have seen, it seems the hoarder knows there is a problem, but they are afraid if they don't keep the things, they will not be able to keep control of their life...when it is just the opposite... because they have kept the things they have no control of their life. The shows upset me, because I don’t think there has been any attempt to work with the person on their mental problem prior
  19. Mine too! Always fun to watch. When I saw him in R. E. D. Retired, Extremely Dangerous... I leaned over to my sons and said, "He looked this old when I was a kid!" He really had not aged - his hair was whiter though. I had no idea he was 95 ... good genes! It is sad he has passed - and yes, it reminds us of our own mortality and ageing - but 95 is a full life. We just saw Bernie Mac on one of the Ocean's movies, on TV... we were talking about how weird it was that he died several years ago at the age of 50. Ernest Borgnine’s final film is "The Man Who Shook the Hand of Vice

    Hoarding

    My cousin’s grandparents were hoarders … but we did not know what that was back then,1970’s. They were in thier 60's when it became more than a hobby of going to yard sales and swap meets. From a kids point of view, I thought it was fun going to their house. We got to walk in a sort of maze to get to the rooms of the house where there was space for people to sit down and visit. Every time we saw them, they would bring little fun toys or clothes for all the cousins. So, they bought to give to others initially. They loved giving all these neat things to family - not sure what the a
  21. I was thinking Boo got shot was this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHpluwP328A They both are quite entertaining! "Weeell, OBVIOUSLY we got a rapist in Lincoln Park! He's climbing in yo windows, snatchin yo people up tryin to rape em. So you better hide yo kids, hide yo wife, and hide yo husband, cuz they rapin everybody out heah! We got yo Tshirt, you done left yo fingerprints. You are so dooomb, you are really doomb."
  22. Saturday per weather underground; 104, 24% humidity Weather bug says 103 degrees, with Heat index of 107 to 111 degrees Sunday same, hot - not too humid... Monday 20% chance of thunder showers at 2 AM. 90 degrees with partly cloudy... could mean more humid...... however, it is hard for them to predict our 3 or 4 days I think summer is here and we can expect 90's and high 80's once we get into next week.
