and see what it takes to qualify. Maybe you will enjoy that experience. You have no idea. Go ahead, I dare you. Take all you receipts down there, and you children's birth certificates, and all your utility bills, etc, etc. You will see just how great it is to apply for food stamps, and exactly what you get for that.

Food Stamps
I just got back from the store and the lady in front of me had 2 small kids and paid with food stamps. When I was loading my groceries in my car, she was putting her children in car seats and driving a BRAND NEW CADILLIAC ESCALDE!! This thing was LOADED! Grrrrrrrr!
food stamps
The thing is that some people do abuse the system and always will. But I do think there are people who really need help sometimes.
Food stamps and other help sm
Our local paper this a.m. had an article on how people are eligible for food stamps if less than 40K per year for family. He needs to seek help from the state where you life. You did not cause it and can't cure it. He is letting pride get in his way and playing on your sympathy. If he's depressed, he is eligible for help as well. You are not a bank, a restaurant or a hotel. Been there, done that with a brother, will never, ever be "used" again, my husband and kids come first! Get tough!
Where pray tell do you think food stamps come from?
From the food stamp fairy? I read the entire post. You are counting on someone else to do your job, lady. Talk about sitting home on their behinds. Welfare and food stamps, same thing, government at work.
It is because poor people get food stamps. right.

Tell that to the soldiers using food stamps at the commissary.

How do you feel about Food Stamps/Welfare?
In the way home from school last night, I had to run into the Ameristop to get a gallon of Orange Juice.
Well, as I was pulling in, this lady (about 25) was walking in, sort of rough looking girl.
Well, she was ahead of me in line then and she got her food stamps out, and typically this kind of thing makes me upset. Because, you could see physically anyway, there was nothing wrong with her.
But, maybe there was....... or maybe she lost her job, and is trying to manage. Not that I was being nosey or anything, but there she had 2 Gallons of Milk, Sausage and Biscuit Dough. So, maybe she was trying to get breakfast for her family in the morning. So now all of a sudden I feel guilty.
But, if we weren't in these hard economic times where jobs were scarce, I typically wouldnt be as understanding, because I do feel Welfare is Abused.
What about you?
THEN, another thing......... maybe you will know, Sometimes you see Welfare people ahead of you in line at the grocery store or something, and they ALWAYS have "Name-brand" in their cart. Never Store Brand. Well I shouldnt say Never, but it always seems like your name brands.
Does Welfare require them to get Name Brand?
I feel that if food stamps are really needed...sm
Then there is nothing wrong with it.
Just because a person is on food stamps doesn't generally mean they are disabled or can't work. Some people on them are those that work for minimum wage and cannot afford to buy groceries especially a single mother who makes minimum wage. Then again some people just don't work at all and get them because they don't want to do any better. It depends. Welfare is lots of times abused.
I wouldn't think people on food stamps would be required to buy name brand. Maybe it is just the person's preference. I don't know.
I DID NOT DRAW WELFARE. I got food stamps
only for a very short time. I was also a taxpayer then and had been for a number of years before and still continue to be. Why don't you come down off your high horse and realize that sometimes people need help. I hope that you and Amy never become disabled and have to rely on government services to help you.
They resent anybody on aid, especially food stamps, and have no clue what it takes to get them.

Just Google Food Stamps and your state abbreviation
Or call your state office for help, i.e., look under CT State, VA State, etc., and ask questions. Around here, they've kind of (New England) let up a little on your assets, used to be you couldn't have two cents in your pocket. Check it out.
But that doesn't apply to every
situation. In my case I got hit with something that was out of my control. I see where you are coming from because most times it is irresponsible spending and debt accruing that causes the problem but not always.
It is better to do an episiotomy than to apply
forceps to the head of the baby. Usually an instrumental delivery necessitates an episiotomy. I have never heard that a massage to the perineum is enough to substitute an episiotomy.
Lady - get a grip. You want me to apply because
you "dare" me to? Your weird and out of touch with reality.
Nice attitude, there. Can we apply that to MTs, too?!

She needs to apply for scholarships if she hasn't already.
My daughter did that and with the multiple scholarships that she got it covers nearly all of her cost and I pay the difference.
check out all scholarships that may apply plus
student loans. Scholarships and student loans and a few contest wins (ie, writing) got our daughter through professional school. She graduated this last May. If she wants it bad enough, it can certainly be done. p.s., i bet they teach a little more than you are giving them credit for!

have to have the liberty bell on them and the pack will say "forever stamps"
Too bad your opinion doesn't apply to children.
LOL
Ladies, how did you learn to apply makeup?
How have you changed the way you wear makeup as you have aged? What do you wear and tell me how you apply it? I've never worn makeup except for awhile in high school and I'm thinking that I'm needing some color in my face now that I've aged (what a horrid word that is!!). The thing is, I know NOTHING about it. Tell me everything I need to know so I won't end up looking like a clown!! PLEASE.
These same issues apply to all message boards.

I have heard you can apply hot pepper to plants

Right, but a lot do apply Botox around the mouth area and
on top of this they get collagen injecting into their lips and then they get this fish-lip look with a masky face.
Especially aging actresses!
Eeeewww!
It's nice, but food prices insane and food is really bad,

Only if you have Forever stamps....look on

Depending on where you live, there are "scholarships" that you can apply for such as the McKay
scholarship, which cover most, if not all, of the cost of a private school, if you would like to go that route. The school itself can provide you with this type of information, where and how to apply, most of the time online. Many times they have church and non-church affiliated private schools that you can choose from.
Anyone know organizations where people can apply for donated cars? (sm)
I am trying to help a family that is in desperate need of a vehicle so that the dad can keep his job and take care of his family. They live far enough out that there are no buses and no one to carpool with. I know there are organizations who can help. Can anyone direct me? Thank you so much in advance.
Nope, you gotta put your thinking cap on, doesn't apply
If you reach full retirement age, that is what I have reached, no money is taken back from you from SS. If you take early retirement (it was 65, now with my year 66 and increasing)then you are limited as to how much you can make and I heard SS takes $2 of every 3. There is no limit when you get to full retirement and I am there!!
postcard stamps are 26 cents...sm
There used to be a time when you could buy all kinda holiday postcards. Have you ever made your own postcards outta your old cards? Just cut off the front, draw a line down the middle, address and send...pinking shears or regular scissors work just fine ....I've done it for the last coupla years and the folks at the post office love it....It's economical and you're recycling as well.

Stamps go up 1 cent Monday
I first heard of it today, they're blaming it on the cost of gas to deliver mail. At least this time I won't have all my bills returned for a stupid 1 cent more postage, like happened last time.

I am using Angel Food Network for help with food (sm)
Being much more careful not to waste food. No more fast food. Soda only if bought in a two-liter bottle, not singles or fountain. Most of my money waste was spent on food.

I saw that too and mentioned
to my hubby afraid really the nipple about to show, very revealing, not just low cut but almost out like you are saying.
I don't believe I mentioned that AT ALL
I only plan to show the page to the principal and, in case he is unaware, give him the website to find this information. I stand firm that the employees of that school and any other school should be very aware of who is entering their doors. Where did you get the notion that I was going to plaster posters all over? Naturally I am very concerned about that little girl and, from what I understand, counselors are involved.
This is just want I mentioned
in a previous e-mail - unbelievable! A few posts above I spoke of a story I just read about a wife whose husband was diagnosed with Asperber's at age 60 after leading a full functioning life.
I would have mentioned about...
Sex of child/teacher and age. I need opinion regardless of age and sex. Does it suit a teacher to use word honey and sweety? ethical?

I did not see mentioned that your
grandmother wrote a will. Why did she not write a will?
Also: Why is the 'nephew' only your sister's nephew?
How is the relationship?
If your grandmother did not write a will, that means she died intestate, then the State takes over the distribution of your grandmother's assets. There are strict inheritance laws which will be implemented.
I doubt that this 'nephew' can take your inheritance away from you, since you are the grandchild and he is only the child of a grandchild. It seems that your grandmother's lawyer will be the executor, unless your grandmother gave a power of attorney to somebody else. This is the person who sees to it that all heirs get their right shares.
I have also 1 question, like the other poster:
What happened to the 'children' of your grndmother, namely the 'parents'?
They are the first in line according to succession.
I think like you mentioned in your other post
you just HAVE to wrap that and give it to him as one of his gifts for Christmas (unless he thinks of it first) LOL!
just trying to point out that the OP mentioned--sm
specifically that the franchise she was talking about began with the letter D and the above poster said "if you are talking about Pizza Hut..." shows how much they read these posts. lol.
Funny you mentioned that because
my favorite chair was the 1 they clawed to death and I put in an unused hallway until I got the time to spend making sure they loved the catnip more than my new leather. I hear them in the hallway going after that ole worn out chair. I would have had it recovered but once the scratching started, figured they would go at it again. I am doing cleaning this morning and this afternoon will have the time to put their catnip out and take my covers off. Does cutting their nails help any or will they still scratch as much as they do?
If this hasn't be mentioned before (sm)
Chances are the school has a policy regarding this. If not, the child/parent may have some recourse.
Generally school policies supercede general law and rights, i.e. search and seizure regarding lockers (they can go in them as they please).
I'm thinking if they imposed such a stiff penalty, they can back it up lawfully. It really matters not if we think it is right or wrong. If it's school policy (approved by the school board) and stated in the handbook every student gets at the beginning of the semester, then that's the bottom line.
