You're so right and since the average age
of sexual activity is around 15 or 16, wouldn't you say most girls have had quite a few partners by the time they are married? I remember what we called THOSE girls back in the day! MORALS no more is right! It's pretty disgusting.
wellllllll - I'm average now - but
have been below and above - aiming for below again!
$250 a month is average for us.
We live in a TINY 1-bd condo and pay an average of $250 a month. We don't use heat or air and have quit using our dishwasher and have decreased our hot water usage. We unplug everything we are not using. We have been able to knock about $75 off our bill by doing these few things. Right now the only electricity we use is for our appliances (fridge, stove, etc.), lights only at night and when we absolutely need them, and for the TV and computer. We are seriously looking into solar as soon as we buy our new home as the electric rates here are crazy and can't imagine what it would be if we lived in a larger home.
Average size woman
Just heard that the averge size woman in America is 12 to 14.  Finally, I am above average in something.
average size of women
I belive this used to be the average size when I was a kid in the 50s and early 60s.  I remember helping my mom shop for dresses and patterns for dresses and she wore a 12.  My mom looked no larger or smaller than most other women those days even though she was small boned and wore petite size or whatever it was called then.  Of course, they could have changed the way they figure sizes since then.  She looked healthy and normal.   
We eat out an average of 4 times a week...
linch and/or dinner. We usually spend about 20-30 for lunch and 30-50 for dinner. We vary our restaurants, don't do fast food or buffets. and stay away from chains like Applebees or Red Lobster and the like. I don't like places where every dish tastes the same just drenched in a different gravy or sauce. We used to like Olive Garden several years ago, but that is so non-Italian now it's not worth it, just your average pasta drenched in some too cheesy, fattening sauce. We have a great Japenese sushi/steak house near us, a great prime rib place, a vegetarian restaurant that I love.
I've heard that the average lifespan...sm

For Siberian Huskies is 10-12 years, but that 13, 14, 15, even 16 or 17 years old isn't all that uncommon for the breed.  Overall, they are a very healthy, hardy breed (at least they should be...) especially compared to some other breeds. 


My husband loves Rotties, for example, and there's a terrible problem with bone cancer and other cancers in Rotties.  There seems to be a genetic predisposition to it in the breed, and research is being done on that.  We lost our second Rott at just 5 yrs old due to osteosarcoma in his front leg.  After having the limb amputed, he did well for a few months, then the cancer came back.  It was heartbreaking to lose him at such a young age.  We lost our first Rottie to bone cancer too (in her hip), at 10 yrs old. 


But with my Siberians, my first 2 (not related to each other in any way) lived to be very nearly 16 years old, and died basically due to old age, no cancer.  I just lost my sweet old girl Alexx last month, on 01/10/2007.  She would have been 16 yrs old on 04/02/2007.  I still can't believe she's gone.  I still walk into the kitchen expecting to see her there, napping.     


My remaining Siberian is 12 years old and going strong, fiesty as ever, but he has had cancer.  He had a major, en block resection a little over a year ago where the specialist took out a football-size area of his thorax, including a portion of 3 of his ribs(!).  Talk about traumatic (for me, my dog did fine! LOL).  It was a recurrence of a spindle cell sarcoma, first noted and removed (and much smaller) 3 years earlier.  *Hopefully* it won't come back again in his lifetime. 


I've used Frontline and Frontline Plus off and on over the years for fleas.  We've never had ticks.  And since moving to where we are now, not far from Palm Springs, our vet's office has said fleas and ticks aren't a problem here, so Frontline isn't necessary.  I was skeptical about that at first.  But so far they're right, and we haven't had to use anything for fleas or ticks, which is a nice surprise.  I do worry about the fact that such strong chemicals are put right on their skin (and I would stay away from Hartz flea/tick products too, from what I've heard), but as far as it maybe causing cancer, I don't know.  


BTW, my advice to all pet owners is to consider pet insurance.  We use Veterinary Pet Insurance: 


http://www.petinsurance.com/


I think it's worth it for the peace of mind alone, so you don't have to worry so much about the cost if your pet needs expensive vet care. 


Our utilities are higher than average here too (Nipsco) SM

and ethanol is not really good for Indiana either. BTW, I get my milk at Walmart, it's cheaper. My kids are older, so we only use it for cereal.


 


 


They all have flaws, obviously you put up with more or are more laid back than the average woman. LO

LOL- and he has the nerve to preach to the average person - hahah)sad -people believe him
 
Since I'm not average sized, it's hard for me to find really nice fitting clothes.
But I do know how to sew, just haven't done it for a long time. I have stacks of really lovely fabrics, from wools to silks in my attic. Lots of it is inherited stuff that is now vintage. I have a serger and a good machine, and lots of beautiful classic patterns. I did make a nice wrap dress for the holidays, so I've been inspired to do more. What I'd like to do is find a really good used dress form somewhere... maybe ebay. It's so much easier to tailor the fit if I can stand next to a dress form, exactly my size, and adjust the pattern and seam lines. You can't do that while you are wearing an incomplete garment with pins in it! It's like trying to cut the back of your hair for yourself.
You wish,,,, ROFL. You can say anything
p
ROFL!
I'm sorry but that was just too funny.  I'm not buying into this whole Michael faked his death BS.  Come on.  Elvis died and now Mike is gone....get over it.
yep - a Goddess *ROFL*.....sm

but seriously, I always think our consciences are our G_D!!  That conscience that tells us right from wrong, that conscience that makes us make a correct decision...........that G_D is within each and every one of us.............


Not from a bunch of men (women had no real say back then) who interpreted what G_D might have been trying to say and then put their own *slant* on things........


who knows?  nobody!  We can only surmise and ponder and become philosophical about it all....


well, except for those darn fanatics.........*LOL*


 



probably!!! *rofl* - too funny
      
ROFL! Good one! nm

ROFL! I confess, its still me too...
I can't help it. I hate when I am just about to do it and then who ever is nagging me mentions it again. NOW I have to wait a respectable period of time until it becomes MY idea once more, and if the nagger keeps nagging this can go on for quite some time, heh
ROFL Hayseed you are something else!
You always make me laugh. Thank you!
getting older? *ROFL*

No...but just can't get past this one - still ROFL!

How about "I would not like thee with a pill, I would not like thee on a hill, I do not like the clothes you wear, I would not like you anywhere!"

And what is up with him writing a book on weight loss??!? I mean, seriously.

x.
great picture and you weigh ??? *ROFL

imagine that description on a 400 lb person.....


no offense - just struck me so funny *LOL*


let's raise the flag *ROFL*.....lucky you....

Marie - I was ROFL reading your post
Sorry I know its not funny especially for you. That is totally disgusting. They sound like the nieghbors we had in Reno, but they didn't have pets - it was their stinking food and stuff they left all over. Why do people live like such nasty ho's. Well we may not have the dog poo but they did do something with their back yard and fertilizer and it really stinks and now we are infested with flies here. I won't call Animal control because they really are not cruel to their dog, they just let it bark all the time then it goes inside once it gets dark out. They do play with their dog too (its constantly getting loose and they are running up and down the street yelling for it - dog comes back). None of our neighbors have their dogs tied up, they just let them roam free. I like the solution that Jim Carey did in a movie called Me, Myself and Irene when he kept telling his neighbor to stop letting the dog poo on his lawn. He went over to his neighbors lawn and took a dump on it in broad daylight while the neighbor watched. I thought that was hysterical. Well sounds like you needed to vent more than I did. I'll count myself lucky reading about you. Four years probably seems like forever to you too. Wish you best.
ROFL!!!! Gonna be some funny looking old ladies in about 40 years...lol nm

ROFL, that was good, Robin, I was thinking the same thing but.....sm
you have articulated it so much more colorfully than I ever could,what a hoot, even though it is such a sickening story. Man, did this woman EVER have any self-respect, self-esteem, to say nothing of self-discipline and brains? Total sociopath, puts the "ICK!" in SICK!!
ROFL, hey Tech, still got knots on your head, bet she did scream at you...sm

but not in a good way.  Your humor makes me laugh!  Hope your wife didn't stay mad long.  Another good mark for you, at least you didn't lie or omit that you're married.  Hey use some of that money you saved from the butler and buy your wife some flowers to replace that frying pan she's chasing you around with  


Keep up the great jokes though, you make this board what it's supposed to be, fun! 


Not on a first date-ROFL!! May want to make that ANY date!
Ewwwwwww!
