  1. This is crazy. I have to always wonder what is going on in peoples minds when they get lost/stuck in the snow because their GPS led them down a snowmobile trail in the winter. Hello? Can you not see our your windshield and realize you are about to drive into snow?? ugh....I would be embarassed..and these people are suing over their own stupidity. People that file these suits should not only lose, but have to pay back any costs they created for everyone involved. Its like the hot coffee at McDonalds law suit. Is coffee not supposed to be hot??
  2. Well, I'm not crafty at all...so I guess I cant build the ark!!! LOL Gumbo and ljtsimons--I think you've convinced me to go. I know I will kick myself for not going. Yep, I'm a weeper so watch out!!!
  3. Dont get me wrong...I REALLY want to go to this one--but I dont do well in large crowds. I think I may end up going anyway, because I know it would be a great experience for my boys. I want them to understand that this is just not a free day off from school! Thank you!
  4. I read the topic about the Memorial Day service in Marietta...but dont really want to drive all the way over there..plus I dont know where I'm going! Is there really nothing happening in Paulding county? What is everyone else's plans for tomorrow? I would like for the kids to see the gun salute, we've never seen that before.
  5. I have boys, and charts never went well with us. They were into it at first, then it just went away. I think girls may like it better. It is a great concept for life's lessons. Do what is right, and you will be rewarded. I've never been big on paying money for good grades, but usually reward them with a special dinner. I explain to them that their grades will pay off their entire life, and it is their responsibility. So, to answer your question, yes..do it!! It will make chores more rewarding...just like the real world. Children dont understand why chores, or brushing your teeth regula
  6. I agree with you. I dont know anyone in the military either. I guess one way to look at it though, is that it shows that the military will care for our soldiers no matter what...and that they are never alone.
  7. I had never heard of it, and just happened upon it while scrolling through the on demand. I would have thought it would have gotten more attention. Thank you to your son for serving, and to you and your wife for your sacrifices. God Bless your family and keep your son safe!
  8. I usually use a little bit of everything in the spice cabinet, and the fridge. I've even made them like I would a meatloaf, then turned it into patties. Those were good too! A little bit of Liquid Smoke is good! We put Montreal Seasoning on almost everything.
  9. Well good luck with that!!! I've been having a bad few WEEKS, and even decided to sleep on the couch last night--and dumb boyfriend walked in the room, and thought I might have been crying over him!! LOL, I saved my tears up for the fallen soldiers and bawled my eyes out during this movie. I feel much better now! Lady Raider--it is a great movie. There is no major plot, or storyline, just the process of the heartbreaking events following a soldiers death and the expression of honor. In the beginning of the movie, I kept waiting for something to "happen", then realized what it was a
  10. He is pretty easy on the eyes isnt he?? Have tissues nearby. Its on Comcast "On Demand" HBO.
  11. I just finished watching "Taking Chance" with Kevin Bacon. Its about a Marine escorting a fallen soldier home. I thought it was an amazing movie....and a great one to watch this weekend. It detailed the procedures and honor of this process. I strongly recommend this movie, and will probably watch it again later with my sons. ETA: It is a true story about Pfc Chance Phelps.
  12. I agree with you completely. Imagine if EVERY business in Paulding County used the "free advertising" at every intersection. What a mess that would be. Legit companies pay to advertise in the newspaper, on PCOM, or by making donations to sports groups, etc.
  13. Just finished planting a bunch of plants I got over near The Avenues! They are so purdy!!! Oh, darn....I meant to post this in the Gardening forums!!!! J/K--I think this is horrible. Even people with enough money for a Lexus feel a sense of entitlement. Who the heck would do that in broad daylight??? I sure hope she was authorized to get them.

    I went by it a little while ago. It looked pretty bad. There were MANY emergency vehicles, blocking all lanes. Prayers for all involved.
  16. Being a senior was the best!!! Had I realized how my life was going to go, I would have failed and stayed back a few times!!!! J/K
  17. I finished reading Stephen King "Under The Dome" last month. It was over 1000 pages....but I started in December!! BTW, that was very nice of her to reply to you!
  18. I'm glad its saltwater now. Every time we have been in the past, my children get cracked and bleeding toes from the chlorine. Even after just 2 hours.
  19. I'm going to Dr. George soon hopefully.....thanks to his generous contest right here on Pcom!! I'm very excited about the adjustments, but even more excited about his nutrition information. I would recommend him just based on his nutrition information he has posted on here, it is obvious he cares about people!!
  20. I agree! I'm glad she was nominated..and got one. She has a great way of stating her opinion without being rude to anyone else!!
  21. I got one too! Thanks Daisy Duke! We must have been really good lately! Somethings wrong....
  22. You would have thought they would have told people in "mid February" when they first noticed it. I used Turbo Tax, but didnt get unemployment.
  23. I just finished downloading Google Earth and it is working. Maybe you should remove it, and download it again.
