  1. BREAKING NEWS!!!!!! Second grader wears the wrong shoes to gym class!! Film at Eleven!!
  2. In Finland, they are offering lessons!
  3. How does this make news? If things were the way they are nowadays back in my day, I guess every time someone got paddled it would be on the news. They would have needed a full time reporter at Nash Junior High.
  4. Ohhhhh, the school. My first thought was about the guy who left Egypt.
  5. No problem and they can be from recent history. I just wondered what women people thought of as great.
  6. Uhhh, women from American history. But we will let your choice stand. (I have no idea what we would do if we didn't want it to stand) (I guess we could say, "that choice will not stand", which would mean.....absolutely nothing) (BTW I am using the royal "we" in honor of Princess Di)
  7. There are some great ladies being mentioned. Not a bad one in the bunch. By the way, if you read about Gypsy Rose Lee, she really was a great lady.
  8. Wouldn't that be GREAT! It is a shame that we never got to know her side of the trip. Also I would love to hear York's story. York was Capt. Clark's slave who made the trip with the Corps. He was the 1st black man to vote in the United States, when he cast his vote on what to do when the Corps reached the Pacific Ocean.
  9. I like saying Biggie. Like when Wendy's had Biggie Fries. I didn't want Biggie Fries, I just wanted to say Biggie.
  10. There have been some great women in American history. Who is your favorite woman from American history? Mine is Sacajawea, who was the Lemhi Shoshone woman, who accompanied Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery. In 1804 through 1806 this 16 yr old girl traveled with Lewis & Clark from North Dakota to the Pacific Ocean and back. Not only did she make the trip, act as interpreter, provide valuable information, save important papers from being lost when a boat overturned, she did all this while pregnant and then while nursing her newborn baby. It is safe to say, without much, if
  11. WOW! That was something! While watching that, one word kept coming to mind.......NERD Yep, that's the word.
  12. I agree with family structure part. It used to be in both the white and black families (at least in the areas where I saw it) that even if a father was not present, the mother and/or grandmother had respect and a tight rein on the kids. I think that what we are seeing is a loss of respect for parents and adults in general and it is even tougher for those who have single parent households.
  13. First, I want to thank everyone for all their help in finding out what this thing is and what it is for. Second, I would like to thank everyone for all the great gift ideas and ways to make the gift better and for the information on where to go to learn how to do whatever it is you do with this thing. Third, I would like to remind everyone that you are giving these ides to a guy that bought something for $0.50 for his wife's birthday, not even knowing what the thing he bought was for. Buying and wrapping is about as much as I do. (and I don't even wrap, if they won't wrap it for me, I put
  14. First, if you look like that girl, you can always get a man to buy you a new car. (so who is really the dumb one?) (that's right, the man) A brunette, a smart blonde and Santa Clause are walking down the sidewalk. There is a $100 bill laying on the sidewalk. Which one of the three picks up the $100? The brunette of course, the other two are mythical figures. *********** A girl is lost in the woods when she comes to a large lake. It stretches both to the left and to the right as far as the eye can see. Suddenly the girl sees a blonde standing on the opposite shore. Cup
  15. I don't have much good to say about the UPS store in question. I shipped something overnight with them and I specifically requested three times that it go the cheapest rate. In fact, it started an argument because I kept saying it was not the cheapest rate. Finally a second person came over and agreed with the first person that it was the cheapest rate. Sure enough, I found out after I had paid and left, that is wasn't the cheapest rate. I called and spoke with someone who said they were the manager and she finally agreed that there was a rate that was cheaper than the rate I paid. He
  16. He seemed to handle his gun just fine. Some of the rest of your post I agree with, some I don't. (hey, that's an improvement for one of us)
  17. What?? Is something wrong with being comfortable? Ohhh, I see what you mean. No TV.
  18. Well where else are you supposed to get them from??
