poor henry!

he can't talk, he's not deaf, and he doesn't know sign language.

I guess all the obvious comic book characters are out. Batman, Spiderman, Superman

OOOOOO Maybe we should have them review "Captain Underpants and the perilous plot of Professor Poopypants!!!"

just thought this was worth passing along...comments from young children...so simple yet so profound...best wishes to all.... what love is.

a group of professional people posed this question to.

a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "what does love mean?".

Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she

Your favorite holiday song?

by Gopher in

even when i was a jw, i enjoyed hearing holiday music.

some of it is religious, some of it is just "holiday cheer" music.

but it's fun to listen to, and sometimes those songs just stick in your head.. do you have any particular favorites this time of year?.

i work at a bank doing processing, underwritine, inputting, closing, signing and anything else related to mortgage or home equity lines of credit.

as we all know the rates have been incredibly low for the past 2 years.

last year the bank more than took care of me with my raise and my bonus.

i work at a bank doing processing, underwritine, inputting, closing, signing and anything else related to mortgage or home equity lines of credit. As we all know the rates have been incredibly low for the past 2 years. last year the bank more than took care of me with my raise and my bonus. this year i feel as though they have totally insulted me with what they have offered me. its barely a third of what they gave me as a raise last year. my bonus is about half of what it was. this past year i have been coming in early to work, working through almost EVERY lunch break, staying after work every day, and coming in on all my free saturdays. i am a single mom (just recently got engaged so i have some more help now) and i feel that i deserve to be rewarded and appreciated for the sacrifices that i have made for this place. i had a meeting with my boss and told her exactly how i felt. well needless to say, that went over like a lead balloon. i am now the black sheep of the office. well the board came back and offered to pay me a higher hourly rate versus my lower salary rate but i would have to cut back on my hours. so in turn---its exactly the same amount!!!! HELP!!! Does anyone have any suggestions? other that looking for a new job??
