If that is a test to see where you stand politically, I can state without hesitation that it is hogwash. Like statistics, it can be manipulated to say whatever you want it to say.

Somehow I don't see your wife being THAT liberal.

I don't know about you but if it wasn't constantly harped on during the news, it would appear that racism is dead. The ones who bring it up are the ones who make money off it, like your examples of Jackson and Sharpton. I live in a mixed neighborhood, have mixed race neighbors, have mixed race grandchildren. We have clients who are Indian, Native American, black, white, Hispanic. We have a mixed police force, fire department, rescue workers, military. Who cares what "race" someone is? We are of the most important race there is--the human race. The only time I see skin color on someo

Years ago we were going up I-65 between Mobile and Montgomery, as we often did. Only time I ever remember seeing a DRIVER of the car next to us with a book opened across the steering wheel and them driving along engrossed in the book. We've seen road rage. More than once. We saw a horse on the road, escaped from a trailer, recently. In fact, we were going to lunch with some friends and we all got to see that. I've actually seen the ladder in the road become the ladder in the road. Not fun on 278 on that bridge between Old Harris and whatever that road is where you turn t

Stradial is right. You have to remember, he has driven in LA (lower Alabama). He has seen some of the things I have. It's funny, every now and then my husband and I will see a driver do something really stupid and say we feel like we're back in Paulding. But sadly, Paulding isn't the only place with stupid drivers. Neither is Douglas, Cobb, Haralson, Polk, all those counties in Lower Alabama, Florida panhandle. They are everywhere.

Is being arrested that tricky to do without getting shot?

Ed Sullivan Show?

You can leave the name blank and search by date.

just go to the sheriff's department, click on "detention center".

It showed 4 on the 17th. I suspect they just haven't updated it since that.

Those other countries don't have to spend as much since Uncle Sam is helping them all with whatever conflict they may have.

I just went there, clicked on a date and it gave about 10 who were arrested on that one date. I believe I picked March 2.

They will probably have to pass the legislation before they will know what's in it.

Even with online bill pay, generally but not always, there is a check that is sent to the company that is being paid. Was this paid through your banks online banking or the providers online bill pay? If through the provider, that definitely sounds like a glitch in their third party billing service. I only do online bill pay through my bank's online banking. I've had one problem in probably seven years and it was my fault when I set up the bill. I input something like a 4 when it was supposed to be a 5. Or a 7 when it was supposed to be a 4. Just hit the number next to the right one a

That's the great mystery about it. There was no rhyme or reason to the suspicions that the detectives had. Apparently none of them panned out either.

If I could go back and learn the truth about something, it would be this: What happened to Mary Shotwell Little. Those of you who are my age and older and who grew up in the metro Atlanta area will remember her name. Otherwise, you'll have no clue who she is. She completely disappeared. Apparently husband was not a suspect. She simply vanished into thin air. It has bothered me almost all of my life. I think she did it out of jealousy. I know it sounds nuts but I've seen mothers who were jealous of their daughters.

Yes, I've thought that from day one.

I think we know the answer to that one. It's a shame the police don't seem to know.

Me, too.

I heard that on TV last night and it was like the temperature in my house dropped 10 degrees. I had chills like you wouldn't believe. Correct me if I'm wrong, but an 18 month old couldn't have said that, right?

It is my understanding that you have to go to psychological screening prior to surgery, apparently to make sure you are undergoing the surgery for the right reasons and have realistic expectations. If you are doing it for the right reasons and with realistic expectations, go for it. I've known of people who had it done and they did great even though it was a huge, huge lifestyle change for them.

It was incredibly foggy here last night, and we're 25 miles or so inland. I can't imagine what it was like down there. Really sad. I can't imagine losing a loved one like that.

If any of you have been watching the news and have heard of the military helicopter crash here in the Florida panhandle, please keep the families in your thoughts and prayers. Also keep the residents of the area where debris is washing up in your thoughts and prayers. And especially keep the patients at the drug and alcohol treatment center where my daughter works in your thoughts and prayers. Many are military. The treatment facility is maybe 2 miles east of the crash site. At last report, the search and recovery has been suspended for the night, partly due to the fog. This cr

He passed away the weekend after Thanksgiving. Heck of a nice guy.

Ah, yea, Greenville, AL. Only time I stopped at Priester's they had already closed for the day. But there is a Cracker Barrel there nearby and we have eaten there many, many times. I feel like I'm almost home when I get there, heading south. We go to the Castleberry/Brewton exit and head south.
