Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of Brown or the Labour party, but there have been three ocassions since Blair left that I thought would be the typical Government screw up and all three occasions it has not been as bad as I thought.

I mean the response to the terror attacks, the flooding over the summer and more recently the foot in mouth - which the EU is imminently declaring the UK free of.

In previous examples of all three cases, its been a total disaster... and while in some cases there was no way to WIN per say, at least decisive action stopped us losing by as much as we could have.

I sort of grudgingly feel that perhaps credit is due to the government for dealing with things well.

What are your opinions?

I had started a new job that morning, and was in the middle of an orientation. The moderator left the room for a few minutes, came back, and told us that the World Trade Center had been attacked, as well as the Pentagon. We retreated to an area where we were able to watch it all unfold on TV. The enormity of it all hit me that night, as I sat and watched people leaping to their deaths from dozens of stories up, while I sat comfortably on my couch. I felt both sad and guilty.

It was a surreal experience, and one I hope I never have to go through again.

On this day above all, I hope that all of us -- regardless of your beliefs or practices -- are able to find peace.

Should the occasion be marked by everyone with a few moments of quiet reflection on the evil people will sometimes do in the name of religion?

And we might usefully use the time to remember that 9/11 wasn't the first atrocity perpetrated in the name of religion, and it won't be the last.

Your thoughts?

My question is really simple. Why would the Bush Admintsration want to kill over 3,000 lives. Or demolish buildings that they would have to rebuild.

He plays xbox and talks with his buds. I miss my son. His dad and I try to get him to "come on down", but he seems happy to scowl around and stay away from us. Uh, recently I found some porn under his mattress when I was changing linens. I threw em away and did not say anything to him.

Now let me explain something to those of you who may have faith but are very simplistic and don't understand the enormous and complex reality that we live in. There are many people out there whos intellects are pretty much huge, and can blow us out of the water, they design economic structures, affect the world system, own lots of money and are generally very powerful people.

How they operate? Million of thoughts a minute, very fast paced, and if they use their thoughts and abilities for evil, they can accomplish lots and fool many, to get their way. Agressive I guess.

This somewhat describes the devil, out there like a "roaming lion" seeking to devour whoever, yadda yadda.
there are many faithless people out there, who ONLY get by on their intellect.

How do you fight something that's so strong? You can't really go to a corporation and blow it up LOL.

My faith made me a bit "different," and that made people laugh at me, because I seemed out of the norm.

:sigh:

First it was Abdul Rehman Jinnah the terrorist now Hsu. She says she knew nothing about their backgrounds. Ok lets pretend for a minute that we believe this. Why would a crook give money to Hillary and pressure others to do so as well? Is it just because they love her so much (as I think she wants us to believe) or is it because they know she has a reputation for selling influence and power? Think about it? Do you really believe these two crooks gave her money because they liked her politics so much...

My sister's FIL recently passed away and left all his possessions to his only child, my sister's husband. The thing is this, the FIL was a widower and had remarried, the new wife is now contesting the will, stating that she has legal right to all her husband's possessions.

Things with the new wife came to light after she refused to put her husband in assisted living due to his poor health, even though several doctors recommended placement. My BIL went to get his dad earlier this year to offer respite for the new wife, but she refused to allow my BIL into the home to gather items his dad would need during his (dad's) stay, only allowed him to pick up his dad and leave. She then demanded my BIL bring his father home because the dad had changed his will to reflect his son as DPOA, giving the son legal right to make health care decisions for him.

Can she win the contest of the will? Many people know how she was with money and do not want her to have any legal rights now.

I have a lot of stuff I want to sell (records, a telescope, bicycle, and a bunch of household items, and a car). I was wondering if others think that e-bay is worth the time it takes to set up an account, and then deal with the shipping of the item.

Shipping spawns another question. For something like a bicycle, if I say that shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, and I just walk the bike into UPS or whatnot, will they package it up and shipp it (in other words is packaging the responsibility of the buyer or seller)?

Also, what is the best way to shipp an old record album?

I don't understand why. And if I tell my friends I'm not opposed to abortion then they say I'm a cruel guy. But what if you are a rape victim, 18 years old with no family to turn to? Then what?

You never cuddled the baby, you never breast-fed it, you never played with it, you never heard it's first words. You don't know one thing about it, except that it's a baby.

I'm talking about the 3,000+ civilians (non-combatants) who died in Afghanistan and the 70,000+ civilians who have thus far died in Iraq.

I know it's important to remember the Americans who lost their lives in the attack on the World Trade Center. However, the wars we have started as a result of 9/11 have killed more innocent people than were killed in the World Trade Center attacks.

I think we ought to remember those innocents as well.

Hi all, and congratulations on the birth of your bundle of joy! I'm 20 weeks pregnant and curious to hear your birth story. How did you know you were in labour, what was the first thing that happend when you arrived at the hospital or the midwife at your house, how long were you in labour for, what pain relief did you choose, how was your baby born and how did you and your partner feel when you first met your babe? How were the first few days home with your baby, was it what you expected?

I know it's a long question that requires long answers, but it would be great to hear your story!

Thanx!!
