was behind 19k in 1995, went back to court, and was order to pay 200 a month in arearages plus my current. Inever missed a payment again. The new court order had me paying untill 2004, my current support ended in 2000. all monies went toward arearages at that point. November 2004, I received a subpena, and returned to court thinking all was fine, and was finished paying. I was completely supprised, when the Tx. att. Gen. had me 22k behind at this point. Due to intrest, my arrearages were not even covering the intrest due, even thoug i was paying as the court orderd. my son is 23 years old now, he has a child of his own, and i continue to pay his Mother 225.00 monthly for the next 7 years. I have paid her over 50k, will this ever end?

A new super walmart opened up and had 290 jobs. The news reported that 5817 people applied for those LOW wage jobs. What does that tell you? We NEED WORK!

I'm no fan of the GOP ... with its deficits up the yingyang it abandoned me a long time ago. What I am a fan of is slashing government to the bone to balance the budget. Why should I pay my hard earned money to support your retarded pet peeve program? If it's so important to you, why don't you pay for it yourself and let me be. I'm sick of your crap. CUT MY TAXES!

I have a question. Am I dumb for thinking that we should put skin color behind us and not give anyone special merits or considerations solely based on their race? I understand that affirmative action was needed - AT ONE POINT IN TIME. I think that it as well as similar programs are now being grossly abused - ex: College scholarships for people who are a minority (I actually got this), well how about we give people scholarships based on how hard they're willing to work whether or not they're white black etc. And affirmative action, well what if someone else is more qualified? I wouldnt expect to get any perks based on being a woman or skin color. Which brings me to the idea of reparations, get over it, most people who were enslaved are already dead or almost there. If your grandma beat up my grandma in 1937 I wouldn't demand money or special treatment from you because it's the past and people have advanced since then. Do you think people just want to take shortcuts?

I've tried to ask my brother this question, but he laughs if off as me just being 'hippy-trippy'. When you joined up, did you ever really think of the possibility of war? And if so, did you ever think of the consequences? War is inevitable and I know we need soldiers, and every one of you is so much braver than I could ever hope to be, but do you think you could come back from a battle, having killed one or one hundred men and be the same? Or do you think that even though you were back at home, with your same old house, and same old car, and same old partner, and same old grocery shop you would be changed in some fundamental way?

Hilter is 'known' for killing all the Jews yet he DID NOT; IT was the S.S. ARMY.
I want to know what you think of him. AND give me good reason for why you think of him that way
AND: I wanna know what you think when you see a swastika?

wouldn't it just be best when you come here "LEGALY!!" ,shouldn't you just be plain old American. Otherwise we will have russian american or austraian american, the list could go on and on.Knowing your heritage is fine, but once you become a citizen your American , you give up your loyalty to the country you came from and pledge to defend this one from all others? Not knowing where immigrants loyaltys lay is another reason you recieve so much hate.

The war on drugs is less than effective; in fact it is so ineffective that it is being considered by most psychologist, policy makers, researchers, and law officials alike to be totally useless in preventing crime and drug use. As long as there is a demand there will be a supply. When the supply is reduced prices of the illegal drugs rise therefore addicts commit more crimes in order to get their fix. The cost of the war on drugs is too high, including salaries for police, jail time, court cost.

Addicts themselves are weak people that are caught up in a sickness that leaves them totally unable to cope with their lives. Jail does not rehabilitate and actually causes the addict to become more hopeless bitter and ashamed after they get out so they use again. These people are in need of help, not harm.

Recently there are many 'drug' courts forming that have programs for addicts so that they go to rehab rather than jail. They are more human and beneficial for the society and the addict

I don't know what to do. I was leaving a club the other night and I had a few drinks. I was driving my car and all of a sudden the lights came on behind me.

So I pulled over and two friendly officers came up to my window. They asked me if I was drinking and I told them I only had a few. They told me that I would have to pass a sobriety test.

They had me get out of the car and assume the position. They then lifted up my skirt and pulled off my panties and said they were looking for contraband.

The officers then said that I would have to walk the line and prove my sobriety. They ordered me to walk behind the trees on the side of the road and the police began to sodomize me.

I felt so humiliated and degraded, but what the heck I guess it's better than going to the slammer. I heard the one officer say to the other that there's no way anyone can get a clean dna sample from the backdoor and that they were letting me off easy.

It's been a few days now. Was this rape

I would think it'd be the opposite! We don't want them to die for something that could have been avoided!
We're against the ones that sent them, who didn't think their lives should have been risked as a last resort!
