Your suggestion makes perfect sense to me...sm

If you had a backache and knew how your partner should massage your back to relieve the pain, you'd tell him what to do, wouldn't you? Perhaps we shouldn't expect partners to be mind readers!

You made perfect sense -- it only went to him
Unless you put her name on the CC of the new email or hit reply to all, it only went to him.  Whew - you can breathe easy again!
it actually makes no sense
to sell a sound, healthy horse at auction for a fraction of the price that can be sold outright. If the horse is too slow to race ont the track they can and are used in other disciplines. Its hard to believe that practice is widespread. When a horse finds its way to auction there are other underlying reasons..
I don't like her, but this makes sense to me.

thanks. that makes more sense anyway
just like it's redundant to have prayer request and Christianity.
Ya know, that makes no sense to me
There are bosses and I expect them to make more than me, my gosh, if not then I would have tried to be high on the totem pole- I care nothing about running a business, done that before, am just as happy as I want to be with the salary I make and concerns me not that people like Trump and others make more- they work a lot harder than I do or have in the past.
That makes sense (nm)

I think I'm going to check around with some other dentists.  Thanks for confirming my thoughts that they are overcharging.  They seem to have a problem filing insurance in a timely manner as well and I've had issues with them over that in the past. 
well that makes a little more sense
if she was selling the songs to other people. $1.9 million is a little steep just for downloading for personal use.
I agree. It only makes sense to me.....
Only in America do we spend all this money to figure out who to release a dead body to. Let's see.....a mother who hasn't had anything to do with her daughter for 20 years or.....an attorney who was living off the deceased for five years.....Lay her body at rest with her son. Figure out who the father is of the baby and let it be. One thing though, the judge is so comical, it's almost like watching a comedy movie. When he said "loose as a goose" yesterday, I thought I would die laughing so hard!!!
Your post makes the most sense in that
I had a little girl and when she first started taking, having heard my first name, she tried to call me the same. I would say, "to others I am so and so but to you I am mamma." Then when she called me by the first name I would ignore and then when Mamma I would acknowledge and answer. I told him exactly what you said. No he has not had a sex change but says hated his real name all his life, since his childhood and therefore the change. I told him he should have sent his own flowers, also but the deed was already done. I do not find it silly to want to be known by your name, though. I personally had to tell my father before when he would not acknowledge my remarrying (sending checks, etc. in the first name) that he would have to put new name on my mail or whatever. He also tried to do the same with me basically. Finally came around, though.
I'm not sure if that makes sense or just your wording doesn't.....

Men do tend to die younger, so it makes sense
to find a younger one. Mine is 4 years older, and he is aging faster because he hasn't taken care of himself. High school and college sports can take a heavy toll on a man.
True but they were estranged and it makes sense - sm
that AN would want to be with her child; not with the Smith family in TX because her mother (who she reportedly hated) wanted her in her home town (probably for appearance sake and one last jab to get her way with her own daughter, which is pretty pathetic). The mom has said that years ago she had said she wanted to be buried near MM in CA, so if that is the case why push to bury her in TX? (if she was really interested in doing what her daughter wished?) Kind of contradicts everything don't ya think? They say she is going to try to get her exumed and taken back to TX for reburial, which again I think is a horrible thing to do. Let her body be. I find it hard to believe the mom would be visiting the grave that often in TX. I really believe she is just doing it for (1) the publicity, (2) the appearance of doing what she believes others think a "mom" would do, (3) just to be one last thorn in her daughter's side. Because of all her grandstanding they could not even have an open casket since the body had decayed so much in all the legal wrangling crap. Total morons, all of them.
what you say in your post makes sense,. I agree...
Don't doctors always emphasize HOW IMPORTANT the patient's attirude toward a treatment is?
The patient HAS TO BELIEVE in the success of the treatment, otherwise it will not work.
If the patient rejects a kind of treatment, IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK FOR HIM.

THE PATEIENT MUST HAVE A positive attitude and embrace the treatment.
Linda Chavez has great articles and makes a lot of sense.
This is long but I think worth it.

As if a housing crisis, rising energy costs and a soft labor market weren't enough to cause economic anxiety for the average American, now consumers are feeling the pinch of rapidly escalating food costs. The United States has long prided itself in being the breadbasket of the world, and Americans have traditionally paid a smaller share of their income on food than citizens of other developed countries. But the days of cheap milk, bread, beef and poultry may well be over — and Uncle Sam is partly to blame.

In 2007, the cost of a gallon of milk increased 26 percent; eggs went up 40 percent; and a loaf of white bread went from $1.05 to $1.28 from 2006 to 2008. Steep increases in the price of oil have contributed to these higher costs, but the federal government has played a pernicious role as well. By mandating that oil companies increase the amount of ethanol they blend with gasoline, the government has not only artificially increased the cost of corn, which is what most U.S. ethanol is made of, but has driven up the cost of other grains as well. Inflated corn prices encourage farmers to divert more acreage to corn, which means they plant less soy and wheat, which, in turn, drives the prices of those commodities up as well. The aggregate price of wheat, corn, soy oil and soy meal in the U.S. will be $61.7 billion higher in the 2007/2008 crop year than it was in 2005/2006.

Corn prices affect a host of other food prices as well. If you've ever looked at the ingredient labels on everything from bologna to canned tomato soup, you'll see that corn syrup is a common ingredient of many processed foods. Corn is also a common grain used in feed for cattle, poultry and hogs. As a result, prices for meat and poultry are going up, but even with higher prices, some companies in the meat industry still can't make a profit, and many are being forced to cut jobs and close plants. I've seen this firsthand as a member of the board of directors of Pilgrim's Pride, the nation's largest chicken producer, where we have already had to shut down one plant and close six distribution centers to cope with record losses directly attributable to soaring feed costs.

But what is most galling about the impact of government mandated ethanol production is that it does little or nothing to solve our energy problems.
Ethanol proponents argue that it is cleaner than petroleum — which improves air quality — and that it and other alternative fuels will reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil. Both claims are dubious.

Corn-based ethanol is inefficient as a fuel for automobiles, reducing vehicle gas mileage by 20-30 percent in vehicles using E85, the highest ethanol content fuel. Fewer miles-per-gallon of gas essentially eliminates any savings achieved, even by mixing ethanol with gasoline in the lower 9 percent ethanol blends required in all U.S. gasoline today. And of course, it also takes energy to produce ethanol — for farming and distilling the corn and transporting the final product to the pump — and much of that energy will come from carbon-based fuels.

None of these arguments has stopped the aggressive ethanol lobby from getting its way with Congress, however, and pressure increases in presidential election years as Iowa farmers encourage candidates to pledge allegiance to ethanol during the Iowa caucuses.

If ethanol really were the miracle fuel its proponents claim, you'd think there would be huge profits in producing it in the free market. But that's not the case. Consumers not only pay for ethanol at the pump, they're paying taxes as well to subsidize ethanol production in the U.S. — and they're paying a hidden tax to keep cheaper, foreign sugar cane ethanol from competing with the domestic corn-based product. Subsidies to gasoline blenders amount to about 51 cents per gallon, and the government imposes a 54-cent tariff on foreign ethanol so that it can't provide a cheaper alternative for U.S. consumers.

And matters will only get worse as government mandates higher bio-fuel content in U.S. gasoline from the current 9 percent to 15 percent by 2015. Ethanol won't solve the energy crisis, but it may well lead to a food crisis in the U.S. and elsewhere. The U.S. Agency for International Development reports that the cost of providing wheat, corn, cereal and other foodstuffs to poor nations has gone up 41 percent since October 2007, which will mean we can provide less assistance to starving people around the world. Federal policy is literally diverting food from the table to the gas tank — and it's time we stopped it.

I think what you did was perfect (sm)
He will not forget you just being there letting him cry. Sometimes that's all you can do for someone who is experiencing any type of grief. He should start to feel better in the next couple of weeks but may end up doing better if he starts venturing out and at least thinking about others he might want to date in the future...? You are there for him, you listen and don't belittle him and you share in his pain. What more can anyone do? We want our children to never suffer but they do...and it makes them better people eventually. You're a great mom! :-)
Perfect, what's that.
:).

I always say about church too, when people think they are better than anyone else because they go to church every week,
well, I do not want to belong to a church where everyone is perfect. :)
(needless to say there are those that think I need to go to "pastor's wife school." LOL.
Sorry for getting off track.
Perfect
Yes this is great!
If I don't work for them or with them, I stay completely away from them. Learned that in a book called "How to deal with difficult people," and another book on verbal abuse.
It is all about control with these types. If they can't control you, they will get angry, but if you just clam up, be nice like the poster said above if you have to see them, just smile and say nothing.
For me, since I work at home, if I run into one of these at my husband's job (he's a pastor so there are a lot of these types at church), I just stay away from them completely. Use caller ID. Do not open the e mail, etc. They eventually give up on me and try someone else. But I think this is why I don't work in an office anymore and I pick and choose who I deal with or not. Took counseling though because I used to want to be nice to everyone and always especially the difficult ones, because I wanted them to "like me." Now, I want to be liked by mentally healthy people, not control freaks. Long story short, no info to them, smile, walk away and if you can stay completely away from them. Remember, it's them not you! Good luck.
Wow, Perfect example.
That should have never happened. It was malicious or intended but things happen through carelessness. I don't think teenagers or young adults really get that until they either experience something like this or close to it first hand or have children who depend on them. It puts life in a completely different perspective. What a shame.
Her mother was not perfect and she
did not "raise" Daniel either. Her mother was not a saint and all of their problems did not just stem from Anna's problems.
and I'm sure you're perfect
with no quirks at all LOL
So because this world is far from perfect--sm
we are just supposed to toss up our hands and say *oh well, that is the way it is, so just let it be*? I don't think so. Evil is as evil does. We are supposed to fight evil, not hold hands with it. BE the change you want to see in this world. Only we can change it and not by sitting on our *** saying "Oh well, that's the way of the world." jeez, how blind!
Ooohh, that's a perfect one. Thanks! nm

You must have perfect gaydar then
A person who has spent a lifetime faking being straight can be pretty darn good at it - some nerve you have acting like any wife that has been deceived this way should have known!  People who marry for ulterior motives can be very convincing and even superior people such as yourself may someday get deceived.
In a perfect world

What is your idea of a perfect world - it can be anything from the craziest of crazy ideas to very simple ones.  Here's my ideas:


1.  No more pharmaceutical commercials.  Let our doctors tell us what meds we need, not us tell our doctors we think they should give us.


2.  Pharmaceutical companies would not "rule the doctors" (okay sort of part #1, but a little different).


3.  No more "stup!d" commercials that demoralize our intelligence like the pepto bismol commercial, free credit report, and about 95% of the other commercials. 


4.  Every child would be considered a gift from the gods (whatever one you believe in), and their lives would be treated as precious as they are and there would be no killing or abuse of young children.  If parents cannot handle having children they would bring them to the nearest safe place and say I can't handle this anymore, please let someone else take care of them (instead of killing and burying them out where no one can find them).  Then couples who can't have children would have a chance. 


5.  The government would tell us the truth about why they are spraying chemicals (chem trails) into the atmosphere and poisoning all of us.


6.  The goverment would tell us what's up with the UFOs instead of keeping it a secret.  I think we are all adults and can handle the truth.


7.  Hollywood actors & actresses would quit announcing to everyone all the lavish money they are spending on themsleves (mansions, $12,000 coffee table, etc) and instead we would hear that Brad & Angelina spent that $12,000 to help the hungry and needy.


8.  They would turn all the abandoned buildings into housing for the homeless.


9.  People wouldn't be fighting against each other "only" because of what political party they belonged to, and politicians would keep the promises they make while they are campaigning (haven't met one yet that did).


10.  Lawyers would not be trying to re-write the constitution.


11.  All people would be considerate of their neighbors and not mow their lawns after 8 pm in the evenings or before 8 am in the mornings.


12.  Everyone could pick whatever time you wanted to start working and quit working.


13.  We would have an alternative reliable transportation method instead of plane, train, or automobile similar to the transporter you see in Star Trek.  So if you live in Washington state, you could still go to Maine for dinner and be back by 9pm.


14.  There would be no more gangs.  The people who want to be part of a gang would now be part of an Infantry unit.  They would learn out to use weapons but they would use them responsibly.


15.  There would be no more bullies in the school system.


16.  There would be no animal abuse.  Every person would take care of animals and love them, and if caught being cruel to an animal you get branded or something so that everyone in public would know that person is cruel to animals and they would be ashamed of what they've done.


17.  No more reality shows.  Enough with American Idol and Survivor.


18.  Scam artists would not try to swindle money out of people (especially the elderly).


19.  Everyone would grow food in their yards and neighbors share with others.


Perfect example... thank you for supplying that

This is exactly what my post was about.  I did not once try to conform anyone to my beliefs.  I was simply stating what I know/believe to be true.  So, why just because I am quoting the Bible and talking about Jesus am I all of a sudden trying to conform someone?  Why is it that whenever a Christian makes a STATEMENT, someone comes along and accuses them of forcing their opinion on someone else.  You got on here and freely placed your opinion about the Bible and if I post something that goes against that, the world considers ME wrong.

No perfect family here sm
When I was younger and innocent, I believed I had started a wonderful tradition of having my family over for the holidays because I was the oldest and first married. After many years of dysfunction, second marriages, sibling rivalry, etc., have gone back to the basics, just my husband, my kids and their kids. I no longer have to listen to, "I'm not coming if she's coming," etc. I no longer have to wash my house down from smoking and no longer have to pick up half-empty alcoholic drinks (which by the way causes more havoc and tongue slips). We are happier, saner, and sober and we enjoy the holidays much more than when I spent a whole week's pay on food and booze and much more than that on gifts for which I never got a thank you. I watch movies such as "Home for the Holidays, National Lampoon's Christmas" and other films such as those and laugh at what used to be. I'm free! Back to the basics of the reason for the season. Send nice cards, that's it, to the siblings. Miss my parents but that's in the past. I don't look back anymore. Hope they're with the angels enjoying themselves. I do get depressed but I fight it off, things have changed and I can't "fix people" anymore, I can only fix myself. I don't think there is a Hallmark perfect family. If there is, it's news to me!
He IS perfect and he's now on my desktop!! sm
He made me laugh out loud... something I haven't done for a while... so now he can make me smile every day.

I have 2 sweet mutts of my own, but I can see them anytime. He is just a LOVER!!!

My daugher used to have a boyfriend named Cody... kinda looks like him... ;-)
you are a perfect example of being 'hooked',
feeling better when you are under the influence, is exactly what drives you to be constantly in this state.
Do you know your limits and do they get higher and higher?
I bet you did not stop, but are hiding it from your children.
You will really have bad, bad withdrawal symptoms in case you really decide to stop or are forced to put a stop this.
No offence, though!

perfect example of a mother being delusional?..sm

I feel for you.....I didn't exactly have this situation but had an older sister and I was the *accident* 18 months after her birth and my mother NEVER let me forget it....


A cousin told me when I turned 40...*you tried for 40 years, don't waste the next 40* and boy THAT was a huge ATTA GIRL for me because I spurned the woman and avoided her as much as possible, realizing at about age 20-30 just how poisonous she was.  I forgave her many times in my head/heart and to myself (though she never once apologized nor said she ever might have done things wrong/incorrectly), and when I had my child I even let her in for 4 years, until she started pumping/manipulating the child and the child's responses and then booking all her $$ on what a 4 y/o could remember/say and then holding it against us (her parents).  That was the icing on the cake, the straw that absolutely broke the camel's back for me. 


I realized early too that my mother missed the entire journey in the life..... BTW, my sister committed suicide 30 years ago.....the 1st born, best loved....where was mom all that time prior.....(selfish woman emotionally).  I am so opposite and happy and have not missed a thing (well, except for the physical grief the first 18 years of life...think Mommie Dearest).


Be well and thanks for sharing.....


Thanks Marilyn. I believe anything is possible. If I were say that my life is 100% perfect, I'd b
lying but having this man in my life is a true blessing. I've had to deal with the aftermath of raising 2 children that lived in the dysfunction. My daughter has issues due to the abuse she also suffered and no one would ever believe what we have gone through with this child (she is almost 20 and still a handful)..I pray somedays she will come to terms with everything and realize it wasnt her fault. I blamed myself for staying so long.  My son is now 26, and at times, I see his father in him in regards to how he treats his GF with jealous fits, controlling etc.. and right then and there I have lined him out. As long as I am alive he will NEVER treat a female the way I was treated. I point blank told his GF that she should nip it in the bud NOW and not be so passive, because once you give them that power, you will have lost yours.  She has slowly been standing up to him, and the more I have talked with him, the more he understands that what I really endured was abuse (he worships his dad). My daughter and I got the brunt of the abuse because we're female and all females are ...well you know the rest (in his opinion)... So, needless to say, my new husband (well not so new...5 years) and the love of my life has stood by me through all the awful teenage years and more. I have stories to tell...trust me.. but he loved me and stayed there. I still work 80-90 hours a week. I became a work alcoholic after years of being single and a single mom and am not sure how to stop. Obviously, my husband does not work but he is the house husband. He does all the cooking, cleaning, laundry etc..AND..he adopted my youngest son who was just a baby when we met..I just feel like God finally heard me..all those days and nights when I didnt think I could take another breathe and I prayed for it to end...he heard me..and brought me my angel.. Okay..that's my deal for the day.. back to work.. LOL Thanks for listening to my long, long story.
YES! Our perfect season is still untouched! :-)
I kinda liked the half-time show, though. Tom Petty is my man! :-)

I didn't get to watch the first half and from what I read below, I guess I didn't miss a whole lot. The second half was probably the best well-played football I've ever seen.
Not bragging or claiming to be perfect...

I am adult enough to know how to prioritize my day and my life without it it draining me or causing me to panic or neglect myself. Perhaps you have too much on your plate and either need to give something up or delegate to others. Oprah, Marth Stewart, The View, and shows of their ilk have done nothing but depress the women of today....make them feel worthless if they can't do it all and make everyone happy, all the while neglecting themselves. I am not a doormat because I don't allow anyone to treat me like one. There is a saying that you teach people how to treat you and I firmly believe that. Why feel guilty about taking some time for yourself? I just don't get it.

Best mortgage company for not so perfect credit?

I am looking to buy a house that is $185,000.  From the sale of my current home, I will make $165,000 and will use all of that as a down payment.  Obviously, I am 20k short.  I don't have the best credit (low FICO score) so I am looking for a mortgage company that will loan me what I am short with bad credit.  Anyone know of any?
