NY Gal

I am so sorry to hear about your step-son. Prayers going up for your family as well..........

Please keep the Riley, Reardon and Curley families in your prayers. My girlfriend lost her only child, Chris, last night in a car accident. Chris was 22 yrs old. Along with Chris, a wonderful young lady, Taylor was killed on impact. Taylor was in my GS troop and a beautiful, 19 yr old girl. Ryan, the driver, is in critical condition. These are children who grew up on my street in NY. Just heartbreaking. Prayers for strength and peace for Chris and Taylor's family are greatly appreciated, as are prayers for healing for Ryan. Taylor was his girlfriend and he doesn't know yet. Thi

Whoops......signed in under my personal account........... Glad you are enjoying the groupon. Here is how it works: Each groupon is good for 1 admission with a choice of 3 activities (skating, laser tag (per game) and playzone). Mix and match. Rental is NOT included. You can purchase up to 5, and come up to 5 times or bring up to 5 people. Valid any general public sessions EXCEPT Friday night pizza buffet (this is considered a special event). If you don't skate, come play 3 games of laser tag or come for the playzone and 2 games of laser tag. This groupon vali

No charge for parents. Children are $3.50, or $7 if you include the lunch package! And the playzone is included as well. We have a toddler area for under 2.

Forgot to mention all of my brothers in law and all of my uncles.....USMC. And my son, in about 10 years!

Thanks for the suggestion. Voice lessons are a great idea! We are already in the process of redecorating her room!

I will look into that.............thanks! Justin Beiber.......but what 10 yr old DOESN'T?

She has both of those. She is determined to be a star one day! lol I don't like this age. Very hard to buy for her. She wants a cell phone but she is too young for that. I was considering a laptop, but she uses my extra one so there isn't a need for it this year. I am at a loss!

We won't be doing live.......that's for sure. But I know he will love his new games!

Thanks for your concern. Quite honestly, he wants it and I can afford it. I have a 20 yr old......been down this road before. Spoiled her rotten and she is the greatest kid who ever lived (some of you have heard me bragging about my amazing daughter....). Life is too short to not enjoy it, and making my children happy makes ME happy! Thanks for your help. I got one and 3 games. He will be a happy boy on Christmas morning! Now.......I have a 10 yr old daughter as well. What should I get her??

to the internet cafe? I accidentally posted my Help! topic in the school vent! Thanks!

Yep..just saw this was in the wrong place! We already have a WII.

My 8 yr old son wants an x box for Christmas. I don't know nothing 'bout no gaming systems (but I can birth a baby! ). If I get this one : MICROSOFT CORPORATION 4 GB Xbox 360 Console what else will I need??? He's 8...we don't need anything really fancy. Also, do other game system games work on it or only x box games? Thanks for your help!

No pics, but my Dad, my husband (Cuban Missile Crises) and my brother (Bosnia and Iraq). All USMC. BTW, Happy birthday Marine Corps!

My husband made one of my favorites.......stuffed peppers! Yum! Just got home now.......going to eat!

One of my all time faves! When I lived in NY, I was lucky enough to sing it with my a capella choir in Herald Square at the Macy's tree lighting one year. What an experience! Thanks for the video!

I have been sitting here feeling melancholy and missing my sister, Shannon, so much today! I re-read all of the lovely things you had to say back in February when I posted that she had passed away. So many people "showing the love"........that's what it is about. Thanks for making me smile through the tears tonight............

I personally know of many issues with her as well........many people I know don't think too much of her.

Correct. If you have a flashing red on 2 sides only, it is a 2 way stop.

The person making the left shouldn't be driving if they don't know the rules............ Idiots behind wheels of cars scare the hell out of me! Hopefully, those who didn't know the "rule" know it now after reading this post!

If you are driving down the road and a trafic light is flashing yellow, it means proceed with caution. On the opposite side, when flashing red, it is treated as a stop sign. Stop then proceed through the intersection when it is clear. DO NOT treat a flashing yellow as a 4 way stop. You will get hit by someone who knows the rules of the road. I almost had that experience today. If you are unsure of the rules of the road, please consult a driving manual.

So sorry to hear that. Prayers sent up.........

Prayers sent up! Sending you a virtual hug........if it helps!

I had mine out in 2000. Good experience. No pain after. You will be sore for a little bit, but not in "pain". I suggest you have it done!

I hear them on 278
