Your reasons for calling her a whore don't make sense to me but whatever. I feel like you are very hostile about it and then try to write off the hostility as morality when called on it.

Darius, I hate to say it again but it's my perception that you refer to any woman you don't like as a whore. How is Sarah a whore? How is Paris a whore? What does the word whore mean to you that you dole it out so easily.

She has made movies and recorded a cd. She does "work." Paris is where she is because the public wants it. If people weren't interested then we wouldn't care what happens to her. She thought she could get away with something because of who she is and she can't. She is paying for that now and it is deserved. However, lots of people "love to hate her" and she earns money and publicity from that

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Things_They_Carried This is one of the books I read. It's unbelievable. Though it's not quite what you are looking for I still recommend it.

Congrats!! That is awesome. Let me know how she likes it because we are considering letting my daughter go next year. My good news today is that my babyboy is safe, healthy and loved.

Actually made a goat cheese/portabella frittata (that's breakfast/brunch, right? ) for dinner tonight. Tasty.

If you and your husband have one room and the boys have the other room then who is in the third room? I think eleven is a bit too young to be out in the M-I-L house. I say make him move back inside where he can be monitored. I think taking away priviledges works very good with kids. What's his favorite thing?? His guitar. Take it away for awhile and tell him that when he can prove to you that he cares about his property he can have it back.

Again, sorry for the misunderstanding. No she doesn't but this one does.

Funny. I thought you were the one stereotyping. That's why I made the comment. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm the last one in the world to stereotype.\ attached is pic of my daughter

Actually, Jordan is very much a pop singer--not R&B. They've had a couple of R&B winners already. Just because someone is black or biracial doesn't make her a "soul singer."

You only live once and if you don't like it you can always come back.

Because it isn't a sexuality issue, it is a gender issue.

I saw the show too and I feel it was more than just boys wanting to play dress up. The kids were seen by doctors as well. It's not like they just said ,"okay--let him be a girl or ok let her be a boy." As they said these children are most likely hard wired this way. These kids definitely felt differently and said things that led me to believe that this is how they were born. It's more than just unsnapping a onesie. I applaud the bravery of the parents.

Old Navy sometimes has some really cute flip flops. Some plain, some beaded, some with sequins. Department stores even have an assortment of casual but good for going out flip flops. Target has cute ones sometimes too

I opened one late as well. Was waiting forever at the highschool for my daughter's dance team auditions to be over. She made it!!

I am so over the smoke. They cancelled my daughter's last track meet and I can't take the baby for a walk outside or I'd feel like I was polluting his little lungs. I hate being cooped up.

It's really not something I am interested in. This whole thread brought up a great conversation between my husband and I. We both agreed that we had "experienced"plenty in our past lives and in our past relationships. We found each other at a point when we both wanted the same things. We love each other and find comfort and security in that love. We find comfort and security in the fact that we don't need other opportunites for love with others. We love our friends, we love our children and we love one another. We only want to share our bodies with each other-- I definitely don't feel like we claim "ownership" to one another. Of course, we could choose to flit from flower to flower but we make the choice not to. Our love is abundant enough as is and are completely comfortable with this. It's not because the church says so-- He is definitely not religious and I tend to think of myself as spiritual. It's not literature or music. We are very free thinking people. Like I said, we have both experienced a lot in our past lives and we've grown emotionally. And I dont judge anyone else's lifestyle either. But to imply that most monogamy is based on insecurity and jealousy would be like me saying having multiple partners is constantly needing validation from others which is a type of insecurity in itself.

I would ask you if you have children? Not that this is the only factor but an important factor nonetheless. I can't imagine being home with the kids and all that entails while my husband was out having sex with someone. I would be angered because he made a vow to me and I to him-- to be true to each other. Human beings are different.. Some are straight, some are gay, some are meat eaters and some are vegetarians. What works for you might not work for someone else. It doesn't make it right or wrong--what is important is finding someone who feels and believes the same way you do.

I do have fake ones. After breastfeeding three children, my breasts just didn't hang where they used to be. Maybe I was insecure, I don't know.. I just wanted my breasts back where they once belonged. I picked a size compatible with my body type and everything(clothes, bras, swimsuits)fit so much better. I just didn't like my breasts looking like pancakes and I fixed it. If I were a close to a perfect human then I guess I wouldn't care but I do. I do have to say though that after my fourth baby and breastfeeding, one would never expect that I have fake ones. I don't regret my choice.

Because people are different.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww... Totally grosses me out and I can't finish the meal. I even got a beetle in my chinese food once.

Wow... She is so cool.

Happy Birthday!!! xxxxx

I'm one by marriage...
