As soon as she had finished convent school, a bright young girl named Lena shook the dust of Ireland off her shoes and made her way to New York where before long, she became a successful performer in show business. Eventually she returned to her home town for a visit and on a Saturday night went to confession in the church, which she had always attended as a child. In the confessional Father Sullivan recognized her and began asking her about her work. She explained that she was an acrobatic dancer, and he wanted to know what that meant. She said she would be happy to show him the kind of thing she did on stage. She stepped out of the confessional and within sight of Father Sullivan, she went into a series of cartwheels, leaping splits, handsprings and backflips. Kneeling near the confessional, waiting their turn, were two middle-aged ladies. They witnessed Lena's acrobatics with wide eyes, and one said to the other: "Will you just look at the penance Father Sullivan is givin' out this night, and me without me bloomers on!"

I don't want to lie but I don't want to hurt her feelings either. I definitely don't want to get in the middle of a lot of drama over it. If I believe a woman is fat, how do I answer them honestly without causing a problem? I've found that even if they say they won't get mad if I'm honest doesn't help. They often will get mad anyway. My current solution is to just avoid answering question like that. I also worry about stirring up some kind of eating disorder. I'm looking for some ideas, please help.

Ok, It's been 2 weeks since my daughter sent me the nasty E-mail telling me I am not the gramma she thought I would be, she had disowned me, telling me not to call until I was preparred to spend more time with my grandchildren, of whom I did see at least twice a week, I work and take care of my Mother of 88, I love my children and grandchildren but only have so much time left after all of my daily duties and responsibilities.
Any way she finally called me to say that the baby has pnemonia and the 4 year old has a cold and she thought I should know! There was no mention of the hurtful letter she had sent me and no apology.
I love my daughter and miss my grandchildren, but feel that she should at least say sorry Mom I had a bad day and my hormones are out of wack (she is pregnant also)

I am still sick over the whole thing and I don't know what to do, I feel she has no respect for me and I am afraid she will hurt me even more.
I am so upset, I need some advice on what to do?

Do you know how many? What country do they work in? Do you know any of their names? From a Biblical standpoint, do you know their back ground? Has any of them ever given a testimony before your church or preached at your church? Have you ever met any of the missionaries that your church supports before? Do they inform your church what they are doing in the field? If so, how often? Or, does someone out of your church tell you who you are going to support?

Currently, I am looking for a family to provide love and support to. I have been responsible for caring for newborns, and helping preschoolers become independent as well as teaching letters, numbers, colors and shapes. As a mother of two children myself, I have always been happy to help little ones grow, learn and explore. I continue to find this kind of work to be very fulfilling. I would love to work for a family that is loving, and respectful. Communication and consideration are also very important to me.
We will enjoy walks to the park for a little fun in the sun as well as other outings such as trips to the local library for some fun stories, or trips to the Zoo or Museums for a great day of learning. Other than that we can have a great time enjoying each others company just hanging out at home.
I would like to work between the hours of 8am- 6pm Monday through Friday.I am a U.S. Citizen so providing a social security number and background check would not be a problem.If you decide that I am a sitter that you would be interested in please feel free to contact me for further details.

My atheist neighbor put up a display with live action electric statues of Marx, Darwin, and Stalin. Instead of saying "ho, ho, ho" they're saying "No, no, no --- God!"
I'm offended. Should I call the ACLU?

i just got my laptop and plugged it in and began setup of windows. during the setup, while i was answering questions, like what user name do i want for my administrator account and what do i want the screen background to be, in the middle of setup it came unplugged. i turned it back on after plugging it in and it opened right up to the windows opening. it didnt go back to the setup where it left off, i knew it wouldnt, but now i know its not gonna run right since it was never setup all the way, i interrupted the power source during initial setup and now i dont know what to do. it looks like it might be running right(im on the home desktop typing this) but how do i know? i know it never got a chance to setup all the way, because it was waiting for me to click "continue" before it became unplugged, which i didnt get to hit. anybody know how to restart everything from the absolute beginning? before setup?

I just tried to answer a ladies question about her Husband being one and before I do I like to read the responses so that I don't reply with old news! I was wondering what it is, I'm a Christian and so is my wife. Is this something I might be interested in? I'm more of a technical guy then a carpenter, but I take it that has nothing to do with it ever though I can't seem to shake that feeling off! The eastern star, that's for the wives of Masons? Is this a Strict Baptist branch of Christianity? Could anyone with real insight share some with me, thank you!

My son was taken by child protective services last month when my wife attempted suicide. The child was placed in the care of my wifes mother, and I was not permitted to see him. Since, my wife has been released and was arrested on marijauna and cocaine charges. She is out on bail and living with her parents. The judge issued a no contact order against her, so she is not allowed to have contact with me. Because she is living in the same home as my son, I have not been able to have contact with him. I would like to file for divorce and get a custody order giving me visitation… or at least get temporary visitation through the court or child protective services. I am disabled and do not have the financial means to hire an attorney or even pay the court costs. My family has offered to help me, but I would have to move to Washington, yet I fear if I do so, I may never see my son again. I live in fulton county, OH.. is there any help out there?
