It is obvious. As many people do not want a woman in
the White House is bad enough. But having another
Clinton there would only mean that they have the leg
up. And would prove everyone on the far right wrong
again. The same way they did in 1992.... Many issues
lie on the table. War, economics, illegal immigration,
health care, and social security. Of which the Demos
would have a field day on, given the last progressive
period we had with the Clinton Administration. And he
even made some of the welfare receivers, get a job.
Many did not agree with that, but it worked. And it
stimulated the economy. Now after the last economic
report, who would want the same crap, we have been
getting for the past 7 years ? Only the GOP.... So do
they fear Hillary Clinton ? If so, then why ?
Best answer wins.

If child support is supposed to be 25% of the payer's income, help me figure out the right amount in this little fictional scenario here:

Gross annual income is 70,000
Allow about 15% for taxes (down to 59500 annually, 4960 per month)
Health, dental and life insurance, 401k, etc. comes to 250/month (making the net income 4710 per month)

Now, if 25% is supposed to go to child support, would that be 25% of 4960 (monthly child support 1240) or 25% of 4710 (monthly child support approx 1175)?

I know, it's confusing... I've done several drafts of this question to try to make it as understandable for you as possible, and so that I can understand your answers. LOL

Basically, is the amount figured up using income before benefits are taken out, or after?

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialled the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper. " Hello ? "

"Is your daddy home?" he asked.

" Yes ," whispered the small voice.
May I talk with him?"
The child whispered, " No ."
Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your Mommy there?"
"Yes ."

"May I talk with her?" Again the small voice whispered,
" No ."

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?"

" Yes ," whispered the child, " a policeman ".

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?"

" No, he's busy ", whispered the child.

"Busy doing what?"

" Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman ," came the whispered answer.

Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background through the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked, "What is that noise?"

" A helicopter " answered the whispering voice.

"What is going on there?" demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.
Again, whispering, the child answered, " The search team just landed a helicopter ."

Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, "What are they searching for?"

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle... " ME!"

I bought my Mother a new cheese board that she wanted for Christmas but I wanted to get her something to go with it. I was thinking Hickory Farms because the cheese seems to stay good for a few days, so I won't be running out Christmas Eve getting Cheese. Has anyone had it before?

Many Thanks :)

I have been working at the same place for 7 months now and I love and adore everyone I work with. I never felt accepted, though, because I'm a temp. Lately I have felt my boss become colder and colder to me, and yesterday she sat me down and said "the last day of your assignment will be December 24." and that was it.

It was supposed to be a permanent position, and now because she doesn't like me I'm not going to have a job. On Christmas, to top it off! What am I supposed to give my family as Christmas presents? I feel like a loser and I'm depressed because I don't know what I'm going to do.

She only gave me 1 week of notice. I don't even feel like doing any work. I just come in, sit there and leave when it's quitting time. Zero motivation. Is this okay?

Thoughts?

It's close with me. I'm a huge fan of George Lynch (former member of Dokken) and can't get enough of his lead guitar.

The lead guitarist of Firehouse is underrated, but pretty damn good also.

Thanks in advance for all your answers, and I hope you all have a Happy Holiday! :)

Life can become heavy at times. Pain, trial, and sorrows tend to weigh us down. Especially this time of year when we are so weighed down with pressure coming from everywhere. The truth is that...

4 Surely he took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows (Isaiah 53:4)

Jesus carried all the weight for us already. He took it all on His shoulders and nailed it to the cross. My question for you is....

Who is carrying your weight? You or Jesus?

In anyone's experience... Can a man who actually GETS help stop being a controlling, drinking, abusive man? Mine is coming home from Prison soon, and has promised he's changed. I think the odds are against change in this situation, and I KNOW I can't change him. I've had it, and am TOO OLD to put up with his BS anymore, however, we've been together six years, and he's behaving so earnestly, I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt. Any thoughts? Has anyone out there actually been with a man who DID change his butthead ways and become a decent human being after taking classes and spending six months in prison for his actions, etc? I'm seriously wondering if I should bother anymore.

My neighbor has a little black kitten, she is so tiny and doesn't look to be any older than 6 to 8 months. She is pregnant and is always meowing at my door and of course I feed her, daily. This neighbor tells me that this is her second litter, that her last litter she gave birth in the woods and they all just died.
My husband told him that we are taking the kitty in and having her fixed.
My question here is this. I hate to mess with mother nature. Should I let her have these kittens? She is so young. Or should I take her to the vet now?
The man refuses to even feed the kitty and his son comes to see his father on the weekends. He is about 12 years old. I heard him ask his dad" Does that mean my kitty is their kitty now?" I came around the corner and told the young man, "No sweetheart, I'm not trying to take your kitty away."
Isn't it time in this young mans life to learn a lesson here?
That if you don't take care of your pets, you will lose them?

Let's say your parents have been driving you nuts asking you what you want for Christmas. They've gotten you a few small things but, as is the tradition in your family, they still haven't gotten you that one big gift.

What do you ask for?

Why are leaf blowers so popular? Why don't people just use the leaf vacuums that are available to suck up leaves/debris. That just seems like it's be a much easier way to clean up, and you are removing the debris, not just blowing it around so they wind can blow it back!

There are still widespread negative stereotypes about Atheism in society.

As such, I don't tend to inform people unless I know them reasonably well, and I try and steer clear of the issue if the person in question is devout. Not that I have any shame whatsoever, it is just that many people are very sensitive to Atheism.
