Oh I didn't say I understood it!

In Reply to: OK, Hayseed...explain how you understood this post please...sm - what???
I just figured it was the same argument my husband is always spewing...that beautiful people will always come out smelling like roses because they always have their looks to fall back on (beauty over brains, etc.) and America sure loves its beautiful people. Some people associate skinness with beauty, which is true in most of the cases, I just see more cases of the opposite where I am in this little world of ours ;-)

from the way I understood it--sm
it wasn't dog food that was sold to the farmers, it was the same chemical put into the pig and chicken food, as well as what was put into the dog and cat food. According to the Chinese, they have been doing this for years and it is an approved practice, over there. I am sure there is going to be other animal foods that have been tainted with this melamine stuff, too.
I am just as disgusted as you are!
understood...sm
but I do believe there are some dry foods on the list now, as well, and if I remember right it was through Dr.'s Foster & Smith, and involved some type of brown rice food, but I am not sure about that either, I just think there are some dry foods on the list now. I will have to check again later. It seems the list is growing every day and it scares me.
I understood the comment, too
That's why I thought it was offensive.
The way I understood it, the tax lady was.....sm
saying that she thought he was "slow" because he was black and blacks are not given the same opportunities as white people. I would be mad. She was more or less calling him dumb. I can't stand people who want to put down people of other races. God created all of us and Heaven is not going to be segregated!!!
If you understood their culture...
you would be more enlightened as to how dates and names are said, rather than complaining about them. Really not anything to get that irritated over.

That's something I've never understood either
As long as you remain "unborn" there's compassion aplenty but mess around and get born and you're on your own.
I've never really understood that
I mean I do in cases of working around machinery, etc., but I know a lot of guys who don't have to worry about getting their fingers caught and they still don't wear them. It's almost like they don't want to advertise that there married.
My husband was on the fence about this when we got married ("his daddy doesn't wear his"), but I told him it really meant a lot to me and for me it is a symbol of our marriage (and yes, a bit of a marker for any ladies who want to take a gander at my DH LOL) and now he doesn't even realize he has it on anymore.
I've never seen his dad wear his, but he is also a carpenter, so that may be why I guess.
as I understood it when my parents retired--sm
and were on social security, they could only earn a certain amount above that social security. anything over that, they had to file. they may also reduce ss benefits by the amount earned. I may be wrong, but that was how I understood it. My mom is 78, completely on ss, has no other income, and does not have to file income tax.
I never understood why people like camping.
Maybe it's because I've always been a working-poor hick and every day life is kinda sorta like camping...
If I could do it, I'd take luxury accomodations all the way, baby. Plush furniture, gourmet meals, never-ending hot showers, room service, and NO CHORES!
I couldn't even fathom wanting to scrounge around for firewood, finding potable water, pooping in the woods, swatting at bugs, worrying about what's gonna camp out in your sleeping bag with you...ugh! Call me a pussy, but that's just me!
i LOVE it!!!! i never understood why this wasn't
dancing is more visual. The Idol contest should be held over the radio, I think it would be more fair because I think everybody gets hung up on looks too much (lets vote for the cute one)
She sings awful anyway. I never understood
how she got that far in the first place. Scott either, for that matter. He's nowhere near the caliber of singer the rest are. But I'm glad she's gone -- she was so annoying. Was she wasted last night?!
I agree, I never understood the whole hoopla
about Angelina Jolie, same with Brad Pitt. When Jolie was younger, o.k., but now she looks really anemic and frail. I have always the urge to feed her.
I totally agree. I never understood how it
won so many awards. It was boring.
OK, Hayseed...explain how you understood this post please...sm
Cause I'm still lost on this one! 
Thank you! I didn't realize they made computer glasses. Will make an appt. Spit didn't wor

I didn't say her decor didn't sound great.
It's not ridiculous.
I would seriously doubt the Christianity of anyone who feels it is okay to celebrate Halloween. It is anti-God in every aspect.
You can only service 1 God and the folly of man and carnality is in direct conflict with holiness.
Thanks - I didn't realize they didn't like the smell of citrus
I have the feeling he doesnt have a UTI and he's trying to tell me something else, but I'll be taking him to the vets to be safe.
I didn't phrase that well. I didn't mean to SM
offend. I think I said that to other lady below!
I wouldn't want to be told that myself. I guess you sounded down. Again, if I offended anyone, I'm sorry.
I'm a channel surfer. Last night watched PBS documentary on Kennedy assasination, then PBS show on Dick Cheney. Yuck. Then watched show on stem cell research to cure paralysis. There were two young woman, both with paralysis, who were so inspiring. Watched another segment on Current about blind people using their voices to "see". That had to be seen to be believed. Anyway, positives offset the negative.
Again, sorry if I said anything out of line.
I didn't say she should sue them. I said that
her sister legally is obligated to pay for it. Me, I would have probably told her I was unhappy with her, learned my lesson and would have moved on.
If I was the sister though, I would have admitted my fault, at least partial fault, and made amends.
Yep, I didn't know that either. Thanks. :) NM
NM
I really didn't know all of this.
thanks
She didn't come with us.

It must be because I didn't owe very much
I had my husband take extra out of his check every year and most of the time it's enough to cover mine too. Last year I owed under $100 as I made more than I planned. I am an IC and use my SS#. I don't remember how much you have to owe for the fine/quarterly taxes either, like Patti stated.
well thank you! I didn't know being in --sm
the 50 year age bracket was young, but I appreciate the comment! Maybe in 20 years I will be able to retire.
I can't believe the mom didn't take him to the ER...
Wow.
No, I didn't know that...but (sm)
I don't have Soapnet...so! But thanks for the update...
Do you know for SURE he didn't
make an effort to see you all these years?
My friend of 30+ was told by HER mother that her father was dead. Come to find out when she is her 20's he's not only alive and well, he's happy to meet her.
It's always a good thing to take what ANYone tells you with a large grain of salt.
As to how to approach him? I would find out where he works and send a letter there - that way it can't be intercepted by his wife. Alternatively, you could call him on the phone, but that option does not allow him time to absorb the news he's been "found" by you.
Provide all your contact information and ask him to at least meet/talk to you once. I would be very surprised if he does not grant your request.
I didn't know that!
nm
no, I didn't mean all that *lol* - but your one
you said: Why don't we all learn Mandarin?
-----------------
you don't know HOW astute a statement/question that is!!! We all will have to know Chinese/Mandarin within the next 25 years or thereabouts....as China slowly takes it ALL over.....the world, that is...don't laugh or think I'm talking out of left field.... - Miami and Broward now offer Chinese and Mandarin classes in college.........the past few years....and then there are those subliminal fortune cookies...teaching us the Chinese or Cantonese alphabet......*ROFL*....but I'[m not really laughing.........
My Hispanic friends in Miami are speaking better English year by year, the longer they are here.....I stay out of the areas where they ONLY speak Spanish.....I'd be lost, as I only speak Spanglish.......Franglish, et al.
Yes, while in foreign countries, we speak their language and they all should be speaking English here but we cannot force it, unfortunately....hence, I learned some Spanish over the past decade and utilize it with English; hence=Spanglish.......*laughs* I think folks need to lighten up about language - we are all the same - we really are - just the amount of melanin in our skin or the slant of our eyes.....we all believe in the same G_d I do believe no matter what the name for G_d is......we all hurt, bleed, and die....it's all RED BLOOD....*grins*
Again, Tolerance........
HAPPY JULY 4TH :)
Of course, and I didn't even say that...
Just saying that not loving animals does not make one a bad person, simply put. I do not agree with the abuse of any living thing...animal or person, but people sure are more passionate about animal abuse than they are about child abuse...can I get an amen???
Can you believe I didn't get to see it!!
Work was backed up so I was doing extra, darn it! I bet it was a great show though. I hate these insurance companies refusing to pay for procedures, especially when someone's life depends on it. What mess. Something has to change, for sure.
I'm not the OP. Just didn't want to see...sm
The thread get out of hand is all. And I see that it hasn't.
Yes you can say what you think, it just sounded to me like you were getting ready to *pounce.* LOL
BTW, it isn't statuatory rape at 16 if they're both 16, so there would be no legal course for you to follow. You'd just have to try to keep them apart I guess. And good luck with that! Ahh, young love...
Ha, really! We didn't
get any T-shirts or anything, but I told my kids they could go to school on Tuesday (out tomorrow) and tell all their friends they went to the fair and got to see Hannah Montana's dad in concert! I've been looking for a good video or clip whee it shows how he used to do Achy Breaky Heart back when my husband and I used to go to his concerts (my choice of course), but all I can find is the original video, which doesn't really show a lot of the way he danced around! My kids are only 6 and 8, so it was really something big for them!
wow - didn't know there were that many of us
born and raised in WV - moved the other direction from you - KY - GO CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't say that did I?(nm)
x
Oh Wow. I didn't even think - this could be
mother Spears THIRD shot at a gravy train. It won't be long before they are pimping the new baby all over Hollywood too.
I didn't know that! (sm)
Since switching from DirecTV to cable (moved), I don't get Court TV any more :0( so I had no idea she had even gotten married!! Good for her!! And twins :-)
...thanks for the update...
I have one of those! I just didn't know its name...
It was something we got as a wedding present 10 years ago and I have not used it much. I kind of forgot I had it.
I didn't know either.
I googled internet abbreviations to find out what all the ShortHand meant.
You didn't need to be there...
There are facts in that case. It has already been investigated.
And you didn't even have to
Get under a doorframe if it happens again. It prolly will, but not as big.
It didn't...thanks though!
It's not anywhere, no matter though...she made it!
Exactly - you didn't know
That is why you should have not made those comments.
OMG - you just didn't do that did you?
We all knew she meant leaving. Give the girl a break! She's down in the dumps and you kick her even more by pointing out she made an error in her post. Has everyone gone nuts. Just read it, you don't need to comment about an error.
Um, no I didn't.
.
SURE DIDN'T LOOK IT!!!! nm

duh, why didn't i think of that. :) Tx!

I didn't say it.
It was on the national news. Maybe it's the younger generation of men. They've been so spoiled and given everything at home that when they get married they expect the same as their parents gave them. Someone else always taking care of them. I think the clear roles of men and women from years ago have diminished and men are just kind of floundering.
When I got married 16 years ago, my husband moved into my house. When he asked me where I kept my ice (?!), I knew I was in trouble.
I didn't know that either
And that's not like me. I'm usually the celebrity gossip queen. All my friends say I should have been an entertainment reporter.
I didn't want one either, but tried one
because I discovered DH had 3 of them! I just asked him if the tiny one I'm using is a shuffle, and he said it was, so I learned something from your post. His other iPods seem annoying to use, but I do love the simplicity of the shuffle. Except that it doesn't hold a charge long at all. It's plugged into a spot in my car, but it doesn't charge from there. It only charges when it's on a base DH has in the house. Other than that, I love it. I wouldn't enjoy having to scroll through playlists to get batches of music, but I do enjoy having all the up-tempo rock and bluegrass I like playing for me in the car without static and commercials.
