Sorry - the guy committed murder. He willingly got behind the wheel of a car after he had been drinking - that's the same, to me, as walking around with a loaded gun and your finger on the trigger. This should not even be open to a plea agreement. He did get off easily.

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/06/16/florida.nfl.player.plea/index.html Basically the story is about how Stallworth, who is an NFL player, got 30 days in jail for drinking and driving and killing a construction worker while doing so. He is under house arrest for 2 years, but can still play...

I have a mini fridge in my office - no need for the dreaded work fridge - although ours is pretty clean. For me it's the kitchen - we're a start up and someone suddenly decided we all needed more sugar in our diets and we have BAGS of those little candy bars - every flavor known to man. All it...

I'm 5'10. DH is 5'8. So, even in flats, I'm taller than he is - obviously doesn't bother him, he married me. I routinely wear 3" heels. My mom was also 5'10 (and dad 5'8 - funny how that works) and never wore heels - hated being tall. Heck, I love it. I also have to admit that I love...

When the kids were younger we went to Yosemite yearly with the kids. Even if just for a few days, it's a wonderful way to get away and be together as a family.

If you look at the ingredients on a bag of IAMS: http://www.iams.com/iams/premium-pet-food/lamb-and-rice-dog-food.jsp The first several ingredients - Lamb Meal, Brewers Rice, Corn Meal, Ground Whole Grain Sorghum, Corn Grits, Chicken By-Product Lamb meal is the dry rendered part from...

A HUGE Congrats to your DD! WAY TO GO!!! She'll know if she becomes ready for a sport in school. Just let her run and enjoy it! It's something she can do the rest of her life.

Oh, what would a movie be without movie popcorn? I saw up with DD16 and she got a Vitamin water, I got a regular water and we shared a medium popcorn. It was yummy!! And the movie was good too! :D

IAMS is not an ideal food for a cat (or dog for that matter), but if that is all she will eat, there may not be much choice.

Oh my what a cute little guy!!! Enjoy him!!!

Amazing, absolutely amazing. Let's see - I do most of the sports he outlined and have been to the ER once on a sports related injury (I had a kettlebell tip and badly bruise my finger). Oh, I've had my share of mishaps, but I do know when it's serious and when it's not.

Jimmy does it, too, and I'm sure he wags his itty bitty tail, but I would never know if I weren't looking directly at him. :P It's funny. Fortunately, he doesn't seem to do it at night - he sleeps on the floor in our room or on the bed when DH is out.

My DH and I still watch it occasionally. It's a great show. It's on TVLand a lot.

Happy Birthday to my fellow Parrothead!!!! Enjoy a margarita for me!

Tricia - I can tell you that California has banned hand held cell phones and it makes no difference. It's not holding the phone that causes the problem - it's getting involved in the conversation and not paying attention to what is going on that is the issue. There are still people driving 40...

Marnapril - that was a fun one! Too bad I didn't see it (and a spa day here in the Bay Area is very pricey!). I ended up getting her a stuffed talking Dug dog (from the movie UP - she saw it with my daughter and fell in love with Dug "I hid under your porch because I love you!") - it was...

I am really enjoying reading these responses. Thanks for the input. It will be interesting.

Tricia - As a runner, you will experience days when running feels like walking on air. Unfortunately, you will also experience days where it feels as if you're pushing through cement. And the cement days tend to out number the walking on air days. :rolleyes: All sorts of factors play in -...

Very good point, although I do know people who are fully covered and still don't go, but I think those are the exceptions and not the rule.

As soon as I saw the name I winced. I'm convinced that Fen Phen (which was a diet drug that was pulled off the market a while ago) is partially responsible for my mother's liver cancer (she believed her doctors who thought a little magic pill cured all ills). That stuff looks like pure trouble.
