a mastermind! Sounds like we owe Dowd a lot, and we ought to pay up by sticking him in jail. Thanks, Sidney, this tale is so disgusting that I believe it completely.
But for some reason, I hate Victor Davis Hanson the most.
Depending on where you live, there are a lot of women five to fifteen years younger than you (or older) who might be really interested in a man who has lived the life you have. And they might be enlightened and ready to have a relationship where their income potential is higher than yours. When I was almost fifty, I met a man who was just barely getting by in home repair. We fell in love. I had the money and he had the sex appeal, and now we've been together for a long happy time. For the first year, I was ill at ease with our income disparity, but then I realized that given how our society works, income disparity is inevitable by the time you are fifty, and you might as well get over worries about it, whether you're the man or you're the woman. You have a great treasure to offer, don't be shy.
Yes, the fact that most shooters are white does show something about white men. I am a white women. I consider white men extra dangerous. Are they? I have no true idea. But my instinct is to suspect them. I always usd to wonder, if the door opened suddenly and it was a strange man, which one would I be most afraid of? WHite, for sure. Esp if he was big, over weight, and a little bald.
Those sourpusses must be guys. So, don't read it already... Anyway, about Hugh. Amazing that such a brilliant comic actor in Black Adder should become this House guy. At any rate, if you haven't experienced Hugh in a big blond wig trying to get his pants on by himself and failing, then you need to rent the Black Adder season that takes place in the 18th Century, in which Hugh plays the Prince Regent. Rowen Atkinson is wonderful, but Hugh is even better.
Recipe please!
We are full!
when I stepped off plane in California, I never looked back or went back. It's wonderful here, no matter what they say. My partner came from Pa, I came from Ia, and we would never never never go back. But if you don't love it, don't do it. It's not for everyone (esp. SoCal), but it is paradise...
I always go to MS movies because I went to college with her,and I have to see who's holding up better. She's doing pretty well, I thought. Anyway, I didn't tell my partner about the bad reviews. I wondered if he would want to leave right way, as soon as the squealing started. But no, we stayed. The theater was jam packed, all people about ABBA's age. The audience really got into it. The women next to me were talkng along with the dialogue, and very touched by the story. I thought it was about 1 part creepy to 2 parts fun. But my partner loved it and wants to see it again. My guess is Stephanie was repulsed by the indignities of undignified age, but it's a hit in my town, so she's wrong again!
When I heard they were remaking this, I couldn't imagine why. About a year ago, I watched all of the episodes from the eighties, and I agree with LB that they were very slow, and not rewarding, except as a showcase for the performances of Anthony A., especially, and john Gielgud as Ryder's father. Olivier was good, too. Great actors on a beautiful stage, making their way through a very elaborate reading of a pretty good book (that was not one of Waugh's favorites--he thought it was too sentimental). One great thing about the original production was that Irons and Andrews did not look alike, so you could tell them apart perfectly. Not so this time. This production is a real mistake. Every generation does not need a new version of every novel.
all people are the same all cellphones are the same all distractions are the same there's never any difference between one situation and another, therefore don't ever under any circumstances talk on your cellphone with your bluetooth while driving down an empty highway. Don't ever have small children or pets in your car. Don't ever change the CD in your car. Don't ever drink hot coffee in your car. Don't ever drop your sunglasses in your car. Don't ever have a heart attack in your car. DOn't ever drive late at night even if you haven't had anything to drink. Don't ever be distracted by the weaving of bicyclist in front of your car. Don't ever be distracted by missing your turn. Don't ever sing along with the radio while driving your car. DOn't ever go down on someone who is driving the car. DOn't ever drive your car.
But I would love to have a donkey in the house (a real donkey). Here's my advice--don't do the housework. Wait until he learns to do it. It's worked for me. My partner is much more attuned to keeping the place clean than I am, and he does the work. I get to do what I'm good at, which is cook. The thing is, don't argue about it, just do what you want to do with conviction.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
