I agree. I have a friend who was in an abusive situation. I knew it, she knew I knew about it. Would she accept my help? Would she take my advice? Would she answer me honestly when I asked her about it? NO She would lie to my face and deny anything bad was happening in her house. When it spilled out of their house & into the yard & a neighborhood kid reported a man beating on a woman in the front yard was when she finally admitted there was a problem. If the victim of abuse won't report it to authorities, they won't accept help from any other source. INCLUDING friends &

Well - for better or worse, baseball has been my life for the past 17 years. There is no end in sight.... BTW - I am really hoping Brenda's parents have a bunch of scenes in the last episodes. I love them!

Sorry - It is an annual event held the day before Baseball's All-Star game. A bunch of players try to hit the most homeruns.

My turn --- Sarcasm or not?

Love that show! I have to DVR it because of the home run derby...

It was closed when the one at Kroger Ridge Road opened. Most of the staff moved to that location. Seems like service & food quality went way up when it moved.

There were some really loud booms going on near us last night. Thankfully they stopped around 10:30.

Inquiring minds want to know.... what are the other 14?

Too true - sadly.

I really want to know who the "us" is Zoo keeps noting...

Hopefully I am preaching to the choir but anyone who is going to be playing out in this heat will need to start drinking water NOW!!!! A lot of water. Then drink Power/Gatorade when you are out sweating.

I am calling them "Masterminds" Who would think that doing this on a quiet neighborhood street would go unnoticed??

Wish it were teenagers....

I am going to PM you...

We live almost 100 feet off of the road... I did try setting up a video camera... but that didn't work out. The one I saw the most was an older white Caddy.... really nice car with a VERY LOUD engine. Other than that it was usually a smaller SUV or a jeep. Also a couple of sedans. edited to remove double post.

At the end of the school year we started noticing increased traffic in our neighborhood. I live in a subdivision with one road which ends in a cul-de-sac. I also live near the end - there are only 4 driveways past mine & I can see all 4 of those homes from my living room. My daughter came in one day very upset because she had just witnessed what she thought was a drug deal. Here is what they are doing.... One car comes down the street & turns around in the cul-de-sac then he meets up with a second car somewhere on the street (no particular place... just where they line up) 1

Just went through that intersection & everything appears to be working now.
