Adam Lambert American Music Awards Posted: 11/24/2009 9:21:31 PM
I am glad I did not watch this live as I was such an Adam fan I bought ticket to Idols only to see him...lol... I think he has oodles of talent, amazing voice, appears to have a lot of heart and soul, and seems in general to be a cool person :) This performance well it is crass and vulgar, very poorly choreographed and his voice just was not up to 'Adam standard' yes he can really carry melodies but you'd never know it to listen to this. I think it sold him very short!. To clarify: I do not support any type of overtly sexual stuff on music awards geared for family viewing , as far as I am concerned its in bad taste and sadly, society is sliding further into the gutter...The singer's gender or sexual preference is irrelevant to me ( I support Adam in his identity and applaud his courage to be himself, but...).If people want to view sexually charged stuff, please most of TV has that , go watch it, I would tune in for music and a bit of drama, not something that makes me cringe! At AMAs I expect music, some creative 'skits' are great, but this lacked a lot, mainly integrity and music, both of which I expect from Adam. (Perhaps he was going for the shock factor, well he got that and a fan who has the case of the cool off time lol) In the future I hope from more of what we saw of Adam on Idol IMO.

How Dangerous is He? Race Issue Posted: 11/22/2007 11:43:33 AM
That you are so concerned for your friend is more than justified in this case. As I read your post, many red flags practically alight themselves with neon lights !!! To put in succinctly she should RUN the other way like the very devil is after her and not look back! Because in this case it may not be far from the truth. I do NOT see any collaborating evidence from what you've said that this young man is in a healthy place given his criminal and abusive past (and current life) to provide a safe, loving and reciprocal relationship. We all need and deserve that. I suspect what he provides is some sugar coated nothings and petty tokens , and grandiose promises of the future : it is all he is capable of, it may be just enough to keep her hooked. Yes he is young, yes all deserve a chance to redeem themselves, I don't feel he is near that nor yet capable of this process. The may be for her the appeal about the 'bad boy' persona. However no amout of charisma or sex appeal is a substitute for a well rounded human. That she is pregnant is not the crisis which should push her to move in with a man. She has many choices available to her and her child (should she decide to keep it, depending on how far along she is in the term). We have a welfare system which helps single mothers in the interm while they get their bearings and start to provide a sufficient life for self and child. It is hard and challenging but there are ample resources out there for young single moms, many support systems and also groups to BUILD self esteem, and not DESTROY it, which I fear is inevitable with this chap. You can only do so much as a friend. It is ultimately her road to walk, if she is expecting then her child will experience her existence as well. I wish that she makes the wise and safe choice.

Inquiry about Tea Posted: 11/18/2007 8:24:38 PM
Hi there! I enjoy the full but smooth flavour of PG Tips orange peoke tea. I have tried Red Rose but I find that it is too dissimilar from the Tetley tea. Incidentally, the PG Tips is about 1/3 less costly in the stores as compared to Tetley. Best wishes and I hope you are able to find the PG Tips!

WOULD U DATE A TRANSIENT???? Posted: 11/4/2007 7:52:19 PM
[it bothers me a little that he's 46 yrs.old n lives in a motel.It also appears that he drinks alot.... I'd prefer to date someone that has a vehicle n home..... But most people live in motels because they have major problems n I can't help him with his problems. seems to be embarrassed to tell me his situation.] Sweetfun; you have stated quite clearly how you feel about this person. When I read your post, many red flags went up for me. While we all can go through a rough time, perhaps find temporary lodging in a motel and work at getting our life together, his issues go beyond that, and the main concern here is your well being! As you stated, these substance abuse problems (and the other problems which he is not dealting with vis-a-vis his drinking) are NOT issues which you can help him with. He needs to work on himself first, prior to attaching himself to another person. For sure it is flattering when someone is attentive and affectionate, in an ideal world we'd each recieve and give exactly what we need and when we needed it! It may be the wisest thing to leave this relationship now; he is pushy! That is a huge RED flag! You don't know his history and there's no one to verify anything with. I think it's clear that you will be doing yourself a favour by saying BYE BYE to this particular chap! Best wishes!

Trouble with the Family Responsibility Office Posted: 3/9/2007 7:44:00 PM
Babs, I disagree with some of what you say, because of what own my exprience has been. I am sorry to hear that you had such a rough time, I did as well. So crazy how these men are fathers yet feel no financial obligation whatsoever for the children which they have helped to bring into this world! Thanks for the tip on kids being able to sue for back pay when kids reach 18, I did not know this! However I very much doubt that any of the efforts will prove fruitful in our case; blood from a stone just don't work , you know what I mean! My ex was less that 10G in arrears and his driver's licence was suspended, several times in fact. Also he was put in jail as well and once again he was less that 10G in arrears....So it does happen! Mind you his bail was not his own money :P, so on it goes....... Best wishes to all and keep up the spirit!

how do you trust guys you date around your child? Posted: 3/7/2007 9:58:24 PM
I am very sorry to hear what your child and you had to go through. I will tell you my philosophy when it comes to dating and my child. And this is from a person who has endured a lot of pain, manupulation and deception by (some, not all) men. Trust your gut instinct, listen to your body intuition. (I have incredible intuition when it comes to 'weeding' out a person who is not right for me. Essentially I get body signals , such as nausea, stomach aches, and so on. It hapapens when I think 'he may be the one for me....." When i understand he is not, my body is quiet.) Always err on the side of caution when it comes to your child, ALWAYS! I have dated for over 3 years now since after my divorce and I haven't left my child in the company of a man I am dating, EVER! Now, that is not to say that I will not do it at some point in the future in my life with a person. In fact of the men I have dated only three have actually met my child. It's difficult enough to be a young single mother and you are healing from that my wishes are with you and your child to be happy, healty and safe! From now on get a babysitter (I only have friends or my parents as bbsitters) when you wish to be alone with a man and do not leave your kid with any man unless you are present . And like I said ERR on the safety of your child, perhaps do NOT have your child present when you are on a date. All the best to you!

Another recourse is to contact the Omudsman (you can google it) and complain on the FRO if you feel they are not doing their job. I have not done that, however considered it.

Hello Limestone lady, I hope this can be of some help to you... I am not certain about mislaid funds, however I can 150% empathize with your frustration about the ineptness of FRO as I have been there and back many many times with my ex! It does depend on who you are speaking from the FRO. Ask to speak to the supervisor of your case. Express your outrage, civilly or not, be persistent. :I have lost it on them after they had on numerous occassions reinstated the dirver's lisence of my ex once they had suspended it for non payment. And the reason for reinstating it to him was his word of payment, not any real money but merely his word! (Meanwhile he drives without his licence :P) There are steps which they follow in trying to obtain the funds from a non paying parent. As I said suspending the drivers licence (after sending warning letters of their intent to do so), a default hearing and I believe the next is jail. Persistence does help , however I must say that after all of my efforts and common sense and persuasion did not help, I did conact my locat MP. In fact the MP has a place where consitituents can send compaints to regarding FRO. And somene from the MP's office contacted me in several days. They do have some pull in helping to speed the process up and ensure that FRO is doing all they can withing their power. I wish you luck, patience and remember the healing power of a primal sream (maybe at the FRO person you deal with lol), a nice bubble bath and ANYTHING really to help you deal with this unfair and unplasant S**T! Time, a punching bag and lots of love helps.

Are virgins more attractive? Posted: 1/15/2007 9:12:11 PM
....And I thought were really were in 2007!!! And how about we ask WOMEN that question.....hmmmm???? LOL I guess it could work both ways, however what does virginity (or lack thereof) have to do with a person's essence or soul, indeed what makes us human?

Why are older women not into younger guys??? Posted: 12/26/2006 11:50:59 AM
I have no problem dating men younger than me; and as a matter of fact the general trend is that I have dated more men who are younger as opposed to older than me. However, what I look for is not age specific, it's all about compatability; similar values, ideals and so on. I find it's challenging enough to find someone with a similar life's path, who is willing to take me as I am and of course vice versa! Nevemind the age difference!!!
