This isn't true if your car is older than mid-1990s. The codes are now "rolling random codes" and change each time you use the "clicker."

I always check Snopes...
before I pass on any e-mails like that one. Some people have entirely too much time on their hands to think up stuff like that. Drives me crazy. Every now and then I get one that is legit, but the rest of the time, Grrrrr!
time for a reality check -
I heard this piece of wisdom recently. Judge men by what they do, not what they say, and you will never have any doubts about their intents.
What does snopes.com have to do with
You need to read the bill before the senate and quit looking to snopes for your news. The Federal Government isn't issuing the licenses, they are basically railroading the states into making it mandate to have these ID's. If you don't, they you will not be able to fly on a plane, ride a bus, get government loans, identify yourself in another state as "legal", etc. The Feds don't have to issue it, their blackmail the individual states into doing so. If you don't go along with their stripping of your liberties, they'll take away government funding from those states. How many states do you think wants to lose their government funding? And those that do, will be up **** creek without a paddle. How convenient of the Fed Gov to try to look blameless in this matter. You really need to read the bill......it is an open-ended bill......do you know what that means? They can continue to add, add, add, on anything down the road. They want to say it isn't a national ID card, but of course, those who pay attention, know it really is, because without it, you will be denied access to federal buildings and so many other things, because as the government will see it, you DO NOT EXIST because you DO NOT HAVE an ID card. It it weren't federal government involved, then why would a federal building require a national ID card to enter?
Snopes.....
Nice speech, but check out Snopes.com when you see stuff like this for credibility. This does not sound like Bill Gates style of speech and sure enough, he did not write this.
me too, been using snopes for 11 years *LOL*
snopes merely has all the facts

Snopes last word

AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF...many of these oft forwarded messages have imbedded spybots and trojans.
According to snopes.com, Andy did NOT write this.

Snopes and MTV say Richards story was a joke.
 That was just too nasty to be true...even for that fella!
http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1556258/20070403/rolling_stones.jhtml
Did you even bother to read the snopes.com information?
To wit:
The proposed regulations establish common standards for States to issue licenses. The Federal Government is not issuing the licenses, is not collecting information about license holders, and is not requiring States to transmit license holder information to the Federal Government that the Government does not already have (such as a Social Security Number).
My state requires a thumbprint for a driver's license. Is that invasion of privacy, too?
Good advice was given here. Suggest vet check-up for kitty needs vet check. sm
I've had 2 females over the years who developed stones/crystals in urine or UTIs. Both of them started spraying inappropriately. Never had a female spray inappropriately other than in these instances. They go into spasm and can't help themselves. If it is a urinary problem, eventually you may see slight pink-tinged spray if it gets that far untreated due to the irritation from constantly trying to pee. One more thought is if the kitty is not sick, maybe the other cat won't let her use the litter box for some reason. Maybe set up another box for her.
No! That sounds too desperate. TIME. Just give it TIME. If it is real, then sm
something will definitely evolve. If you like him, flirt back! Don't act desperate because if he DOES like you, then the suspense will just make him want to get to know you more. Trust me on this.
I worked in the medical records department of a hospital when I was single and dated a few co-workers in my early 30s. It was fun. Nothing serious came about any of the relationships.
This sounds like fun - the beginning of maybe something to come....Keep us informed.
Totally agree, get these from time to time since teens...sm
It's a neuro condition, it does not mean there is anything at all wrong with you, it is actually related to narcolepsy, hypnagogic (sp? I just got up!) hallucinations, etc. And I HATE when I get these, it is always freaky, my siblings get this too, at times. I can "go away" for years and years before you get another episodes, so don't worry! I heard that when you are under a lot of stress or are very busy with things that this happens more??? Take care!!
It's time to stop when you or the kid(s) feel it is time, and no sooner. sm
My grandmother (who passed away at the young age of 107 back in the mid 1990s) was STILL celebrating every little holiday for all of her many kids and grandkids, and she would STILL give me a chocolate bunny every Easter, as she had since I was a toddler and even though I was 40ish at the time (and I still delighted in biting its head off in front of her, as I had also done since I was a toddler, which always met with mock disapproval from her).
Don't let anyone dampen your joy in celebrating your traditions.
The very 1st time he talked about killing you, was the time
The guy sounds like a psycho.
Rachael Ray has a segment from time to time
on using the bottom of the bottle receipes (i.e. bar-be-q sauce, peanut butter, maple syrup) and I have used many of her ideas and been amazed at how far you can stretch a dollar that way. Go to her website, it will give you many ideas.
Oh Amy, surely there was a man who "kept" you from time to time..
or you were at least married and had access to money!
It was a great time - I just hate the time we are in now
I liked your post. Thanks for replying It's nice to know other people were raised like me. We seem to appreciate the things we have. Oh I should've also said we didn't have A/C growing up. My parents idea of A/C was having my sister and I wave a piece of cardboard in front of them. HA HA HA.
I just couldn't stand the 90s and 2000s are even worse. I hate all the politics going on today, the world events, the bleak future. The degenerates running around, listening to kids talk back to their parents, girls gone wild, etc, etc. I'm grateful my grandparents and mom are not alive anymore to have to go through this with us.
I love watching old movies and the music of the 40s/50s. If I was alive back then I would've been doing the jitterbug and all those other fun dances. Life seemed simpler and cleaner (even though I've got a mouth like a sailer - guess I got that from my Army days).
I wouldn't mind the turn of the century either. I love the clothing and the simple life. Those are the times when the husband took care of the wife. If I could be transported back to the 1800s I surely would in a second.
You might want to check out the
New MT/Student board. There are lots of posts there that would probably interest you like which schools are good and those sorts of things. It is tough to get started unless you work on-site or are willing to take a cut in pay at first. Good luck to you and congrats on the new baby.
Well, what do you know?? Check this out
Maybe this would work with candles too!?!?
http://www.aromapatch.org/aroma.htm
Hmm...may have to check into that
is it very expensive (if you don't mind me asking) I'll have to go check out their website. Thanks for the info!
Check-N-Go
Be very careful with those things. I'm in Florida and have used Check-n-Go here locally. Not sure if they have an online site, but they are very reputable.
You should check with....sm
the manufacturer of your laminate to see what they recommend.
Good luck with the dog on the rug. My sister just put in hardwood floors and their also 10-year-old Pomeranian is having a horrible time trying to walk on it.
I need to check that out
I've heard of them, actually on this board, I think. I checked them out at the time but didn't do any more than that. Maybe it's time to get one and do a pre-emptive cleansing the moment I feel symptoms coming on again.
Thanks!
Um, yes but would check that out thoroughly
a couple of neighborhoods in NJ were named this year, including where I grew up, and what a joke!
One is a town they were recently calling the *cancer cluster* and investigating due to the chemical plants and extremely high cancer rates.
It is also where they built million dollar homes smack in the middle of normal moderate priced homes and then also not too far away from the bunch of low income housing/projects they added over the years.
Well when a couple of these million dollar couples went to the public schools for the first time, they cried! Actually cried. Guess they didn't do their *homework* (no pun intended) before buying. It's been said they can't afford private school because the big deals strapped themselves just to live there. Oh well.
As for me, I'd never buy a house there and I moved away!
My family and friends are convinced the magazine was paid off or maybe somebody knows somebody, like everything else. Wouldn't doubt it. : )
Thank you...I will check it out!! nm

I had to check the
board to hear about Misha's dog. As far as the troll, ignore it and maybe it will go away LOL.

My friend's husband is in the hospital. He went into the ER at 7:00 Sunday night with a blood sugar of 600! At midnight, the ER clerk gave my friend a bill for $9000. I have never heard of them giving you a bill so fast! At 4:30 a.m., he went into the ICU. P.S. He is doing better, and as far as I know, no more bills yet...
Check out....
http://edhelper.com/
It does cost. I think I paid $40 for 1 year, but it covers every subject and has all kinds of worksheets to print out.
You could check....
http://www.replacements.com/index.htm
I don't know if they will be more expensive or not, or even if they will have exactly what you want, but they carry a lot of different brands/styles.
I did check that out....SM
and they do carry Tabletop Gallery, but not the pattern, Winterland, that I want. I appreciate your advice!
Thank you so much! I will check!!
She could check...
the CDC website for faster information. They should have information on there about MRSA and exposure risks. If not, I believe they have a number on the site where you can call the offices and request information.
Please take him to the vet to check
xx
Thanks! I'm going to check them out!

Wow...check this out!
A doctor in Colorado found a surprise when removing what he thought was a benign growth from a newborn's brain. Instead of a microscopic tumor, out popped a tiny foot, partially formed hand, a thigh and another partially formed foot.
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/SecondOpinion/story?id=6488655&page=1
check on
I am checking now and there are tons of videos of him.
thanks, we should all check it out
Just checking out the website gave me enough inspiration to get to the bedroom closet today.
I'd have to check into it
I couldn't stand not knowing...in fact, I can't stand not knowing. I had a very similar situation a year ago but it was a phone call, not a note. I'm still not sure of the truth, which is very hard. Good luck and God bless
check with him sm
If you don't have kids, just put it up on the refrigerator for him to see when he gets home and see what happens. There are lots of "nuts" out there and it may not be true. Just watch how he handles it, you'll be able to tell. If it is not true, then you have to laugh at it. If you have kids, then you have to be very careful when and where you say anything, as they will never forget it, never! So be careful and certainly, let him see it as you will carry it around with you inside and get sick. Good luck!
No check,
$13 per week in check..last I heard it was to start around April 1. Only people getting checks are people on Social Security.
thank you, i will check into that sm
i've heard of aspergers, but not sure what it is. so i'll do some research. with the psychologist, i just had this feeling inside me there was something i didn't like. we won't be going back to her. i'm still looking.
thanks for your information. :)
thank you so much! i will check these out nm
b
check out...
Be sure to check out VRBO.com :) Lots of great deals there!
Time out and then spanking if time out
If we are out in public however, we do not go home. Spanking right there and then and the kids learn REAL QUICK mom means business. I do not mess around and I have a 17-year-old now that has enlisted in the military and THANKS me for his tough upgrowing. It helped him through basic training.
Well, I have questioned myself from time to time.
I figured this was typical. DD has lots of friends but two real close friends. I guess this is all part of building social skills. I am glad I did okay then.
Same thing happens to me from time to time - sm
if I roll over too quickly. I have positional vertigo. There is not too much you can do about it except try not to move or get up too quickly from a supine position. I have never had an earache in my life either so that has nothing to do with it. I don't ever feel sick from it though, just more of a nuisance for me every now and then. If it keeps happening obviously get checked out, you may have a more severe case, though again there really not much you can do about it, all it is is some particles in your ear breaking loose and that causes the dizziness, etc.
If I had not asked time and time again
for the daughter to ask me are you upset- are you angry- are you in a bad mood- People can think what they want- She is a very intelligent person and my asking to please should be enough. Gest of the posting. Selfish, OMG, that is really a laugh. I have and do take care of others well before my needs- I have given of myself, my time, my finances, the whole thing until, now this will sound selfish- it is my time now. I take care of me now- this is selfish but this is the truth. I raised my family, did all I could (still do for the daughter if she needs assistance which she never asks for but I offer)and now in golden years, me time.
Yes. Next time put a time limit on it., but is there any way you
