stopped by the cops
Posted: 12/23/2008 2:22:10 PM

If the OPs bf decides to show hi9mself in public in that get-up, he has to expect a certain amount of mistrust and suspicion to be thrown at himIf he wants to be normal, he'd find he has lots less problems.



Ted Bundy looked very normal - that's why he was such a success as a serial killer. If you are a bad guy trying to get away with something, you will dress to blend in, not stand out.

People who Steal Profile Information from other Profiles

"compleat woman".........anyone who can't spell complete .........is incomplete


It is a literary reference to a famous book called "The Compleat Angler" by Izaak Walton. The book was first published in 1653, which accounts for the variant spelling.

I was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)
Posted: 11/23/2008 10:35:44 PM
Best of luck to you!

I was diagnosed with AML on Sept 19, spent a month in the hospital, got pretty sick for awhile. After the hospital I had to go in for daily IV antibiotic treatments for a lingering lung infection. I will start my second round of chemo on December 1, this time it will be outpatient.

Fortunately my boyfriend likes my bald head!

Mayo-Free Tuna Sandwiches
Posted: 11/23/2008 10:22:02 PM

But the water packed stuff is everywhere -- I can barely find oil packed tuna to save my soul (and heart, haha)!



I figure the reason the water packed tuna has taken over is that water is cheaper than oil, but the consumer pays the same price.

I find the water packed stuff so dry that I end up using a lot more mayo to make it palatable.

eggnog?
Posted: 11/16/2008 8:43:54 PM
Pastuerized eggs are available in some markets - worth looking for if you are freaked out about salmonella.

There is no comparison between homemade eggnog and the store-bought stuff. I like mine really thick - I separate the eggs, and beat the whites into peaks, beat the yolks into the milk, and whip the cream. I add sugar to all 3, then fold it all together - don't forget the vanilla, and nutmeg if you have it.

He says he is very sensitive


My experience has been that people who say they are sensitive mean they are self-centered, and their sensitivity only extends to themselves. This guy seems even worse.

I can only echo all the other posters who are telling you to get rid of this guy.

Do you help out people with signs at the end of EXIT RAMPS begging for money?
Posted: 9/10/2008 7:17:49 PM
I wish I could remember the comedian who did a routine about giving money to the guy on the street. At first he was going to say, "No," reasoning that the beggar would spend the money on drugs or alcohol - but then he realized that is what he himself would spend it on if he kept it instead of giving it away.

I don't always give, but I sometimes do, especially if the weather is bad.

Grandma, show us your new tattoo!
Posted: 9/8/2008 9:33:28 PM
HarleyKat -

I got my nipples pierced almost a year ago. I can't say they made them more sensitive, but I think they look great.

It hurt like crazy for those few seconds while it was being done, but aftercare was a breeze. My piercing place recommends covering the piercings, using a moist dressing like Tegaderm, which lasts several days to a week. They healed quickly and with no pain, no irritation, no infection.

The other thing my piercer told me was to start with a barbell. It heals quicker, and you can always switch to hoops later, if that is the look you want - me, I like the barbells better.

My boyfriend LOVES them!

Wouldn't bathing in Clorox just exchange one toxic chemical for another on your body?

Here is what their MSDS has to say:


DANGER: CORROSIVE. May cause severe irritation or damage to eyes and
skin. Vapor or mist may irritate. Harmful if swallowed. Keep out of reach of
children.


Doesn't sound like something I would want to bathe in.

800 Pound Murder Suspect will NOT be jailed???

She is suspected of murdering her TWO year old nephew, Eliseo Gonzalez Jr.

She allegedly hit him twice in his head while he was in her care.


It enrages me that this woman isn't being punished to the full extent of the law



"Suspected" and "alleged" are not the same as guilty.

Punishment comes AFTER a person is convicted of the crime.

At Will Employment
Posted: 8/30/2008 12:26:01 PM

I'm trying to figure out what this line means exacly...
"In Washington, in order to overcome the at-will presumption, an employee must show that the employer made clear and unequivocal statements of job security to the employee. "



As I understand it, it means that the employer has the right to terminate the employee at any time, without cause - that is, "at will" - unless it can be proven that promises were made that s/he had job security. That is, the statement means exactly the opposite of your interpretation.

Good reads post your favorites
Posted: 8/29/2008 11:11:58 PM
I love memoirs. Two of the best are "The Duke of Deception" by Geoffrey Wolff and "This Boy's Life" by Tobias Wolff.

They are brothers, both terrific writers, whose parents split when they young, and they each grew up with a different parent.

Their father, "Duke," was a con artist. Geoffrey's account of growing up adoring his dad, yet gradually realizing that his life and accomplishments were false, addresses the complicated feelings between father and son.

Toby stayed with their mother, whose poor choices in men continued after she left Duke. Much of Toby's story revolves around his life with his unpleasant stepfather, and his eventual escape, through less than honest means, from a life in a small town.

Death of a 24 yr Marriage
Posted: 8/5/2008 7:20:16 AM
When my 29 year marriage ended, I remember thinking, "Life goes on, even when you don't want it to." It was sooo painful. But as time passed, things really did get better. I noticed the tightness in my neck and shoulders disappeared. I no longer had to worry what kind of mood he would be in when he got home. My kids told me I was more fun to be around. I realized how cramped my life had become, trying to be who I wasn't and trying to see him as he wasn't.

I found therapy to be very helpful. If you haven't been seeing a counselor, now would be a good time. And if s/he isn't a good fit, find a different one.

Online dating can be shocking to someone who has been out of the dating world for awhile. Yes, there are a lot of blatant sexual invitations. If that is not your thing, just delete and move on. The same for anyone who disparages you for your looks - screw 'em. There are great guys online, but you need to be patient - and have a sense of humor.

It is easy to fall prey to the idea that only the young and "perfect" can find dates, but next time you are at the mall, look around. Most folks are pretty ordinary, and they seem to pair up just fine.

Good luck to you. I'd bet money that a year from now you will look back and laugh at how far you will have come.

What drives me crazy is ordering hot tea in a restaurant, and being brought a little metal teapot with "hot" water, and a teabag to dip in it. If the water isn't boiling hot, you don't end up with drinkable tea, so it's not worth the bother.

I would just like to point out that I do feel a bit bad that your boyfriend was confronted the first time. But why did he do it again, knowing what could happen?



You are right, he should stop walking down the street, knowing he might be stopped again.



But if you are going to wear a thug's uniform, don't get mad if someone mistake you for one.

Twice in a week my boyfriend was stopped by the cops. Both time s the police demanded to see his ID, and ran his name through the computer.

Was he speeding or otherwise breaking the law? No, he was on foot, walking to 7-11 - but he was dressed all in black, has a mohawk and several piercings.

Do the police have the right to demand ID from someone who is merely walking down the street? And then to run the name, looking for warrants?

Apparently a mildly unconventional appearance is all it takes to negate the idea that this is a free country.

Is dating during separation cheating?
Posted: 7/31/2008 3:51:07 PM
OP, since you say you don't want him back, then to all intents and purposes the marriage is over, just waiting for the legal "stamp." So in that case, I say it is not cheating.

If the two of you had agreed to spend time apart to evaluate the relationship, then in that case I would consider it cheating.

Women's Choice=no support from fathers???
Posted: 7/31/2008 10:11:25 AM

The lower earning figure comes from taking more days off work or taking years off work by choice to be at home. Or in some cases accepting a lower paying job with better hours for a home life. .. The courts do not question why a woman must be earning less when she does not have primary care of children any longer



Presumably a married woman whose work outside the home was limited by choice, made that choice mutually with her husband - that is, they both agreed that their children would benefit by her being at home with them. So when the time comes that they divorce, there is indeed an answer to the question as to why she is earning less - she has sacrificed her career path for the benefit of her children.

From Russia, With Love????
Posted: 7/25/2008 9:31:01 PM
(1) No idea on this one.
(2) A good friend was contacted by someone who was supposedly a young woman from Russia.
(3) It turned out to be a scam - asking for small amounts of money (which he provided) for "unexpected expenses." Then she was supposedly on her way to see him, staying in Moscow for her flight the next day, when her young daughter (a nice touch, she had an adorable kid) accidentally smashed something valuable at the hotel, and the manager was threatening her unless she paid for it in full before she could leave the hotel. When my friend declined to wire her $1500 she suddenly vanished.

We later found pictures of her and the daughter on one of the many websites devoted to exposing Russian scammers.

Any one can add photos of a "hot young lady" to a profile or an email.

There's no excuse for a committed women getting pregnant knowing she's not ready to have a child. We have too much technology to allow such.



The "excuse" might be that there is no such thing as 100% effective birth control. I know of a number of pregnancies that resulted from birth control failure - including a friend who had two kids after her tubes were tied.

If you operate in a world in which technology never lets you down, then you must not have a cell phone, or cable TV.


BTW, what about the man in the committed relationship who decides he isn't ready, and wants her to have an abortion? Think that never happens?

Aging parent -what to do?
Posted: 7/22/2008 9:29:11 PM
Thank you all for your comments.

As I mentioned, my sister is the one dealing with our Mom's care, as she lives much closer than I (I am on the opposite side of the country), and she has POA. She has put Mom in assisted living on a 30 day trial, and is convinced this is the best option. Not being the one who has had to deal with the situation on a day to day basis, I am not going to second guess her.

Of course Mom keeps asking when she can go home, and my sister is just being vague. I will visiting in a couple of weeks, as will one of my brothers, and I suppose the 3 of us, and perhaps another brother, will have to face Mom with the truth. It will not be fun.

How old is too old?
Posted: 7/21/2008 1:21:02 PM

There is a simple formula:
Half of your age plus seven.

(AGE / 2) + 7

If you're 24, then 19 is just fine....
If you're 40, then no younger than 27




I have seen this "formula" quoted over and over again, but with no attribution. Who came up with it? What is the basis for it? Is there any sort of research validating it? Or is it just some nonsense that people keep repeating?

People should date/marry whomever they wish, as long as both parties are legal adults.

If the woman can make a unilateral decision to abort, then so can the man. Now I'm not advocating that the man can force the woman to go full term, because it's her body and her health. But an abortion is feasible.




I am scratching my head here. A man can't "force the woman to go full term" but he can make a unilateral decision for her to have an abortion? Is that not also "her body and her health?"



Another point I've got to make is that accepting that women ALL make rational decisions while their bodies are undergoing a major hormonal change is false.




Testosterone is responsible for more irrational decisions than any other hormone.



Women who were on social assistance at both time of conception and discovery of pregnancy should have to go to a hearing to demonstrate their ability to provide for a the child and why the pregnancy should be allowed to continue.

f I have taken steps to protect against pregnancy, the condom breaks and the woman refuse to take the morning after pill - then no I should not be held responsible since I have taken reasonable steps to prevent pregnancy but she has not.




Condoms are external, and do not a pose any medical risk to the wearer. The same is not true of the morning after pill.

The physical consequences of pregnancy, abortion or childbirth always fall on the woman, which is why hers is the final say.
