That's how I read it too Liann! I thought Tami's post was just great, both for the Christians its aimed at and for those who feel like Christmas is crammed down everyone's throats. As someone who doesn't do Christmas, I'll say that while I respect Nancy's position about this, I disagree. I...

Thanks ladies. I do think I'll be getting one. I too would rather not drink chemicals and think I get enough minerals from my diet.

LOL! It's really the worst isn't it? C'mon you Christmas lovers! Your holiday deserves better PR! :confused::p

Well I'm offended...by the song itself! Wow that's some bad music! :p;):confused::eek: In all seriousness though, I feel like go ahead and say Merry Christmas if you want to, but also respect other people's right not to say it. Simple! :cool:

Hi all! I'm looking to replace my brita water robot (that's what I call it, it's basically a brita water cooler/heater). I saw a countertop water distiller that look good, but I've heard there's some controversy about drinking distilled water (like it removes minerals which are helpful). Then...

My dad is another techie, but it's so hard to say what he wants, that stuff can be super expensive, plus he always gets that stuff for himself. I'm thinking this year I'll go with a fun magazine subscription for him. Popular Science or Mental Floss. That way he can make more informed...

I agree Nancy and others that it can be ok, or even helpful, to let your kids see it, as long as you are there to make sure they are safe. I also agree with the posters who said that your husband might need help. But this is YOUR decision. If you aren't comfortable with people drinking around...

Thanks Catherine! I'm glad I didn't offend you. And I do see your points. It's not the fault of Brenda or anyone else who follows their hospital protocol, but it does seem like there ought to be a better solution for health care workers than the ER when it's not a true emergency. I'm not...

I think only you can draw this line, and from how it sounds, you already know how you feel, it's just a matter of getting others to cooperate. You've gotten some great advice and I really feel for you. You can't control how others react, but if I were you I'd just state my bottom line while...

Catherine, I hope you don't think I was criticizing you. I was just genuinely confused and hoping for some clarification. Thanks to you and the others who replied, I have it now. :)

This was my thought too. I wonder if it's common practice for sick hospital employees to use the ER? I know that health care workers in the military report to sick call at the hospital, I think they go to the ER too. Also, Fit Fairy says "ERs were made for Emergencies not sore throats and...

Sorry to hijack Michele! The app you mentioned sounds awesome. And I've been curious about your 100 push up app. I found this site which works for those of us who don't have an iPhone or an iPod touch: http://hundredpushups.com/index.html Think I need to start on this asap. How many...

LOL! Let me know what you think of doodle jump! I love that little dude! When I visited my sister in TX this summer we were constantly playing with their iphones. A few times we were at a restaurant and we couldn't put the darn things away. The waitress probably thought we were nuts! I love...

iPhones are the coolest! I don't have one but I'm amazed at all they can do. It's like the ultimate toy and tool. Have you ever played doodle jump Michele? It's addictive!

LOL Shelley! That's a LOT of effort for THAT look! :confused::eek:

I think you should return them too. Sorry! This reminded me of the Friends episode where Monica buys really expensive, really uncomfortable boots. So funny! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0c2W7eOOI0

Thanks for the thoughtful posts, Lauramax and CLango. And CLango, I completely agree with your points about government and corporations. I guess this point is really what I was getting at. I wish that politics and government didn't depend so much on corporate money.

Wow, that is just hilarious and adorable! It's like a head shower and a drink. I bet it's lukewarm or warm water for the kitty to keep dunking his/her head like that!

I re-read 1984 not too long ago, and thinking about this really reminds me of how in the book Winston is tricked into believing that there is a "Brotherhood", a movement that opposes the Party. Of course, there isn't, it was just the way for the Thought Police to weed out troublemakers. Ok...
