I once lost 14 lbs within 2 weeks by counting daily calories. I was starving myself. The thought of cookies, which I usually dislike very much, made my mouth water. So I sort of knew, back then, how poor people in Africa were going through. It was 3 years ago. Now I've learned to be my full self.

Not to be insensitive... can you pray for someone without knowing her name? I thought you had to mention the name in the prayer. The Lord might get confused with a name like SoCal.

I put my little one in public school because I want her to know that she's very special, just like everyone else.

I read several more versions of it (Lev 11) - it meant dogs, right?

Thanks, IHO. The first part so far is true, I've just checked.

I looked it up and am not clear as mud. Does it mean the one with none-split hoof is unclean? How could anyone say that about the ponies?

Definitely not FCB's. You should see how fast people drive in China on crowded streets. The caption doesn't say that it was based on freeway statistics so I think it's a representation of the average speed on average streets. Being a moderately impatient driver who's always in a hurry...

I'm a bit down this week.  :'( There are 3 things I love at Ikea - the 100-pack straws, the hazelnut chocolate and the irresistible Swedish meatballs with gravy and cranberry sauce.  :-* The whole family panics when we are out of the Ikea straws, which I usually buy 5 packs at a time. We...

Of all the visible ones that we were able to verify, yes, those were all fixed.

Property tax, yes. Income tax, SS and Medicare, no.

It's better not to know how sausages are made. While our house was being built we visited the site everyday after work because it was right across the street. Believe me we found lots of worrisome workmanship on those visits. Crooked nails sticking out everywhere, switches and lights in the...

It was an thoughtless rant on my part. I didn't mean to have the government block sales to foreign people. I think it is fair to ask for a higher property tax and MR. Maybe we have a case. How about on the same ground we the taxpayers were forced to bail out the '2 big 2 fail' and the same...

On cloudy days there are always crows banging their beaks on the gutter around the roof. From the inside it sounds like someone is trying to knocking down the house with a hammer. I wish I had a bb gun to blast them away. And there is always bird poop on top of my mailbox. They don't poop on...

Danish people are nice and they celebrate their cultural in such genuine ways. Sign, I wish our rich Chinese neighbors could put their spare changes together and build an authentic and beautiful Chinese style village in the middle of nowhere for all to enjoy. I can really do without the Buddist...

I think that was a reasonable price but maybe you can get it down to 41k. I was at fladeboe honda two weeks ago with an FCB and the sales offered us a grey/silver 2014 touring demo onsite for 42k+. But in the end the buyer decided to go with the Sienna 7-seat model because the second row captain...
