Blogging Helped Sobora Ditch the Freshman 65 {That's Fit}
Feb 18th 2011 9:11AM Looks wonderful and much healthier. Would caution to be careful about such a high water intake - I used to drink 4 liters a day (a little over 1 gal) and ended up in the hospital for a month with a potassium & sodium electrolyte imbalance. Had never really heard of "water intoxication" before!! Wish you the best of luck and success.
PD*poll: Should dad be banned from son's graduation ceremony? {ParentDish}
May 14th 2008 3:38AM Do we know if this is a case of actual rape - or a case of a 15 y/o dating a boy that was 17 - her parents didn't approve and charged him with rape? That does happen. Do we know if it was actually a rape - albeit date rape, or rage rape? I think that would be a deciding factor; it seems odd that if it were in truth an actual rape - the mother would allow her child to have anything to do with someone like that.
Did Jenna Bush get engaged 'cause she's pregnant? {ParentDish}
Aug 22nd 2007 2:20PM #7, Ray - let me help you pack. We live in Germany (via the Army) - what gives Americans a bad name are comments like yours. Idiotic and with no meaning, what was the purpose? Not a fan of President Clinton, but I certainly never called him, his wife nor his daughter an idiot. Just didn't agree with some choices he made. But he was the CIC, and deserved my respect. As does this CIC. Grow up, and spout off something worthwhile, not, "the girl is a tramp" (and you know this how?) etc.
Jenna Bush is Engaged! {News Bloggers}
Aug 19th 2007 5:57PM Annie-he would go where his orders direct him. The amount of things they have accomplished for the Iraqi people (that are truly appreciated) is astounding. There has been a large amount of military that has also worked in New Orleans & Mississippi. I'm not implying President Bush is correct in all he's set out to do - I don't believe that only the government can be blamed for not helping those in need due to natural disasters or poverty though. What has happened to "help thy neighbor?" What has happened with local government, church aid - one can't simply look at the government and cite "they haven't done anything right." I appreciate your thought provoking comments - it was nice to hear someone elses opinion without hearing, "you're so full of crap!" = )
Jenna Bush is Engaged! {News Bloggers}
Aug 19th 2007 3:44PM Richter-don't be an ass. Don't ask Tamz who from the family is involved in the war. Why don't you say what you have done in the military, and for the war. My husband joined -not because of financial reasons, but because of 9/11. Has everyone forgot about that day? We've spent two different years apart because of his service, and I couldn't be prouder. And if our next Commander in Chief is a democrat, he'll serve them just as proudly. The military is not serving one individual, they are serving the whole nation. Even the people that protest against them. Think about that the next time you shoot off your mouth.
Chris Matthews Is a Jerk {AOL Video Blog}
Aug 19th 2007 1:38PM One would just expect a news show to be news - Hardball shouldn't be a SNL skit. Not sure if I'd call it sexual harrassment - just stupidity. Keep to the news. The correspondents don't need you to say if they look good or not. Leave that to their makeup people.
Soda, Pop, or Coke? Generic Names for Soft Drinks by County {Gadling}
May 12th 2007 6:21AM Yep; from the Panhandle of TX - "What kind of coke?" - now, living in Germany - so it's "pop" - but I do miss asking for a coke and getting a Dr. Pepper!
Two Men Spend 48 Days in Indian Airport {Gadling}
May 12th 2007 6:15AM Have not ever had trouble with cleaniness of bathrooms in Frankfurt; fly in and out of there quite often. Also appreciate most of the staffing speaks English - and have always been polite.
