have flown themselves there. Secondly, if they could affrod a motel, they can afford a taxi. Thirdly, why didn't they ask directions at the motel? Why take the chance of not finding someone who could help them when the concierge desk would have the information readily available, would probably have called the taxi for them, and possibly may have had a shuttle service available to take them.
You definitely did the right thing. I'd be more worried about seeing someone else on the news who did give them a ride and ended up dead, rather than feeling guilty.

Best Chicken Wings I have ever made myself (sm)
Go to www.bettycrocker.com and do a search for the recipe called "Engine-revving Chicken Wings". I have substituted bottled Chili Sauce for the cayenne pepper sauce (hot sauce), and I have also substituted pancake mix for the Bisquick, and both come out wonderful especially if you prefer "hot wings" that are not soaking in a lot of grease. My only other tip is when you place your foil-lined baking sheet in the oven initially to melt the butter or margarine, when taking it out before loading it with the coated wings, make sure the you spread the butter around because they may stick. Another tip: You do not have to let these marinade the entire four hours. Sometimes, I have only marinated them for two hours, and they come out great. I also have excluded the onion salt that it calls for - still awesome. 
OK, laugh it up....there is always next year. LOL Go Wings!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nm

Haley and I think she sang If My Heart Had Wings by Faith Hill. She is okay but -sm-
Sabrina deserved to stay. I don't think Antonella should have made it to the top 24. I think the producers had to know about her background and put her on to give the show more attention (not that it needed any). I agree with the poster from the other day that only two of the winners deserved to win, Carrie and Kelly although I have not purchased anything of Taylors. I have purchased cds by Clay, Kimberly Locke and Josh Gracin and they are all excellent. I even purchased a short cd by Carmen Rasmussen that wasn't too bad. Rubin and Fantasia were not my type of singers. I am sure they have a lot of fans to get where they are but they were not my favorites and I would probably not buy any of their music.

Angels passed by our home
only 2 months ago and my dad took his heavenly flight.
Only a God-called grandmother could love you as she did. The only way your grandmother could have ever share such love for you was first being loved by God. Paradise is her home!
My dad had COPD and was diagnosed with cancer in November of 2006 and sent home with hospice with 6 months to live. He passed away in less than 2 months.
He asked hospice to please not let him "smother to death." His last 2 weeks were exactly as you described. I had difficulty watching as he was administered morphine and Ativan because I knew the morphine would suppress his respiratory system even more. He was on oxygen but struggled with every breath. He began to conserve all his energy just to breathe. He was alert but spoke very little. He was given only water via sponge and all medications were stopped the week of his passing. My family and I were by his bedside the entire time, and every day he became more weaker. He asked that we pray that the Lord would come soon, and all this time I'm trying to convince my family that we needed to take a more aggressive approach (IV fluids and blood transfusion). Early morning on the day of his death he became unconscious. There was the most precious, sweet comfort and peace felt by everyone in the room at the exact moment my dad drew his last struggling breath and took his heavenly flight.
As 2 months have now passed, I realize the care he received was appropriate, and hospice was loving and caring. I just wasn't ready to "let my dad go."
May you feel God's presence in the sweet memory of your grandmother. Grandmothers are earthly angels from God.
Aw...poor little angels! And you tried so hard...nm
