  I wonder how many for abortion or at least pro-choice are against the death penalty

  What I wonder about, is those who claim to be pro-life, but are for the death penalty.

  (I am pro-choice and am not against death penalty.)

  Mmmmm, fresh bread. I haven't made that in so long. It's not silly, making bread is a great art. Next time, make enough to share. I would love to try some of yours.

  I was always scared as a kid. Always hearing things in our house, even before mom became a witness. Then she got baptized, she started throwing things away to rid the house of them. When we moved, we did a lot of photos, of the attic, basement, empty rooms, and we saw some faces in the pics. I believe there is something there, I just don't think they are all demons, or evil.

  As long as we don't have this utopian set of circumstances, abortion should be safe, legal and rare.

  I agree. I wish there was never a need for abortion, but as long as there is, I want it safe and legal.

  I wish that our children were better education about birth control. Until we find a form of b/c that is 100% effective, idiot proof, non-allergenic, abortions will always be needed.

  My grandfather had moved in with us, and we had to clean out his home. He lived there since 1947. His one neighbor moved in 1952. They were like family. When we, my siblings and I, were little, we lived with our grandparents for five years along with our parents. So the neighbors were like an extra set of grandparents.

  No one in the family wanted any of the furniture, so I took it. There was a metal bed that belonged to the neighbor and I was going to give it back. She asked me if I could use it. Here the bed was her Mother-in-law's bed when she was a little girl. She told me I could keep it.

  She has her own children, grand children, and great grands, and she let me keep it. We stripped off the coat upon coat of lead paint off of it, and now my daughter has a beautiful bed. I think of Mrs. Ernest every time I tuck my daughter in. She has just passed away, and this gift is more important than one could think.

  Where is the safest place to be during a thunderstorm?

  by hubert in

  we just had the biggest thunderstorm pass over us in many years, and the "epicenter", if you can all it that, was right over my house!!!!!!!!.

  any minute, i was expecting to get hit in the a$$ with a bolt of lightning, and lose whatever little hair i have left on my head, or anywhere else, for that matter.

  so, i think that the safest place to be, is on the toilet.. that way, when a bolt of lightning hits right outside your bathroom window, you will be in the right place when you shit yourself !!

  Tires won't protect you from one hundred million to one billion volts. Their steel belted anyway. Safest place is underground surrounded by a gold, silver, or copper grid. Go to center of house away from windows or conductors.

  Thank you. We just bought a house, and it is up on a hill. It's the highest point around, and has four lightning rods on the roof. The white flashes we've had, scares the stuffings out of the family. Middle of the night, it still makes the rooms white. I pull the drapes, and unplug everything. Never thought of going into the middle room of the house. Thanks for the info.

  Daughters, Do you speak with your mothers’ ‘voice’?

  by jeanniebeanz in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i hear it when i see the faults in others, and condemn myself for any minor infraction.

  it is my mothers voice.. i dont know exactly when she got into my head, but it is clearly her voice and judging that i hear.

  she condemns me for the dirty dishes, the skirt that is too short or the blouse that is too low.

  I ‘hear’ it when I see the faults in others, and condemn myself for any minor infraction. It is my mothers’ ‘voice’.

  Welcome to my world. ;-)

  I hear her voice, is that how I taught you to fold towell, sheets, etc.? You're feeding that to your children? On and on, I hear her voice in my head. Of course, I hear my Dad's voice too. What the hell were you thinking young lady? Or I hear it when I see others doing something unthinkable.

  I think it's a curse they gave us. We get to pass this on to our children. I know I hear my mother's voice coming out of my own mouth sometimes too.
