    Roman Polanski

    I believe is hiding in another country for child molestation.  It has been Sharon's mother and sister who have been fighting to keep these people behind bars.  I don't know why the families of all the other victims are not speaking out.  It is mainly Tate's family of origin.  I just remember seeing a news clip of Sharon's mom being upset because they allowed Tex Watson, the leader of the crimes, conjugal visits and to conceive 4 children.  He would not allow Tate parenthood. 


    I do wonder though, if they would not have went after the rich and famous, they probably would be out and shown mercy. 


    hold up...are you sure this is a Roman Catholic Church?...
    First, let me state I have utmost respect for my faith and priests but they cannot force your daughter to convert...it is against the Roman Catholic faith to do so (prosyletizing). Also, in regard to all the other issues that you mentioned, any so-called "sinful activities" that may or may not have gone prior to marriage, these are reserved only for the confessional and not for the premarital screening process. The priest has no right to ask for "penitence" or to know their secrets. I think you may be onto something; my suggestion is to contact the archdiocese this priest lives in and calmly state your case without passion; he may have had other complaints against him. A wedding day should be a sacred occasion filled with joy and i hope you can resolve this issue.

    Then I would wash everything in the house in hot water, including the drapes and have the carpets cleaned, just in case it is from the dogs.
    The person who last had our number...sm
    still uses it, so we get calls for her all the time! We got this number over a year ago when we moved and constantly get calls for her. We always tell them this is not her number anymore, but I guess lately she's been using it to give to loan places because they told us this. They apologize but it still stinks. She has a lot of debt out there, especially for school loans. We don't want to change it, though, and go through the same thing again and having to tell everyone our new number for nothing. We're also signed up at the Do Not Call website.

    Is there a way to block a number...sm
    from calling your house if that caller is calling from a cell phone.  My mom has tried to block my dad from calling her house and it says this number cannot be blocked.  I was also gonna block his # from my phone as well.  I know it sounds terrible but my husband just came home today from working out of town and we were trying to watch TV and spend time together.  My dad wouldn't quit calling.  I mean we are talking every 10 minutes.  I answered it about 4 times thinking he would quit calling if I talked to him.  No he would just keep calling.  And I am not exaggerating -- it was every 10-15 minutes.  It will make you want to throw the phone out the window.  All he says when I answer is I'm bored.  I am like ok and why don't you watch TV or call a friend or something.  He will literally keep calling and say I am just so bored.  I can't take this.  Why won't your mama take me back?  Blah Blah Bhlah.  My mom said a call from a cell phone can't be blocked.  There has to be something I can do.  I was gonna block my house # and if he keeps calling my cell I can just turn it off.  Does anyone know a way to block a cell phone call? 
    call this number if you care so much...

    THIS IS WHAT AMERICAN IDOL WAS DOING LAST NIGHT - COLLECTING MONEY OF which half was going to the poverty-stricken in the USA and the other half to Africa.


    This was such a non-superficial American Idol...but again, did you even watch?


    Josh Groban brought some of us to tears with those African children singing with him, as did Carrie Underwood in Africa with the children - very touching indeed...to say the least.


     


    If you have their number call them back
    I recently bought a repo'd house, and I have been getting constant calls from the creditors of the former owner...how and why they got MY phone number is probably not very legal, based on the address I presume, as I put myself on the "do not call list" the minute I got my new phone number. Capitol 1 in particular was calling me every single day at the crack of dawn (I work 2nd shift) wanting this guy.  Finally I wrote down every number that had been calling me on a log and started calling them back, and behold it was the same company calling from a different number every time!  I began insisting on speaking to supervisors and threatening them with a harrassment lawsuit.  They promised to stop, and then started again in 2 weeks.  So I started calling them back again.  For now it has stopped, but I don't know for how long.  I guess I'll be getting mail and phone calls for this guy forever more (he recently subscribed to some magazines and they're all being sent here).  Sure would like to meet him in person and force him to fill out a change of address form!
    I have had my phone number for 6+ years.
    When I first received it I kept receiving calls from agencies for a specific person. I told them this was not their number, etc., and had no idea who this person was. After a while, they stopped calling; but now after 6 years I am getting them again for new debts, so this person is using my number (which may have been their old one) still. I just tell them I have had this number xxx years and this person repeatedly uses it for their info and eventually they quit calling. I did have to speak with a manager once, and after that they stopped.
    now divide that over the number of taxpayers
    and don't forget to figure in her tuition that we will all be paying.  SICKENING!
    Just the opposite for me - 13 is my lucky number,
    Same goes for odd-numbered years. Those almost always go well for me, and without fail, even-numbered ones are the pits.
    There was a time a number of years ago -
    when everything was so frustrating at work, at home, and everywhere else, I came within a heartbeat of just getting in the car and leaving EVERYTHING behind: Abandoning my job, my friends, my family, my apartment, even the pets in my apartment. EVERYTHING. Just leaving and becoming somebody else, somewhere else.

    But I decided to give it just ONE MORE DAY. The next day I called in sick and didn't go to work, just to give myself one more day to think about it, and to pack and close out my bank account, just in case I was really going to do it.

    The next day I went in to work, and guess WHAT? The boss had been fired! From that point on, things started looking up, so I stayed.
    A number of years ago I was discussing

    tubal versus vasectomy with the assistant pastor's wife.  They had 3 kids and were done, but her hubby didn't want the vasectomy.  Someone had told him it increased prostate cancer risk or something like that.  News to me.  Anyway, she really did not want a tubal because she had seen her mother suffer so terribly after hers, and her mother eventually had to have a hysterectomy.  That was the first I had ever heard of such a side effect, but I didn't forget it, and have since heard many people describe the same thing. 


    A vasectomy makes so much more sense if you are paying out of pocket.  My husband's insurance was through a Catholic organization so we had to pay ourselves, which is why we chose that option. 


    It's not a psychological problem.  It's just not a side effect that everyone has.


    Way to block phone number?
    I just answered the phone and same ole, same ole company calling that I do not wish to talk with. If no return phone number comes in on my ID, is there some way after the fact of blocking this number out?
    No, but I've let someone use my phone number....SM
    Big mistake. We rented out our home for a while and let the renter use that home phone for outgoing calls. I forwarded my calls to my cell phone from this number. She couldn't receive calls, just could make calls. But, now I'm getting calls from bill collectors and I wonder how many databases my phone number is in due to her using my number. Won't do that again.
    1 vote per phone number would be fair...sm
    that way they'd really know what people think and not who has the fanciest speed dial modems that casts hundreds of votes per phone line.
    Mine has an emergency phone number to
    call when things happen out of the office hours. THe recording at the office should say something about emergencies and what to do about them.
    Block his phone number and don't answer- sm
    the door. Also get a restraining order if you have too. Call a doctor or hospital and find out what is necessary in terms of committment, stop threatening him and do it if you are legally able to. If you cannot then give him some phone numbers of services that can help him tell him he has to help himself. No wonder your mom divorced him, sounds like a 2-year-old who wants everything his way and takes utterly no responsibility for himself.

    My german shepard has the number one name Max - but it is short for his registered name Max-in-a-mil
    My Rott is Rock Haus

    and last but not least I had to snakes male and a female named Felony and Miss Demeanor.

    Oh and my Bichon is Mandolyn Lee
    It may be a minor inconvenience but definitely get your phone number changed.

    I went through a similar situation, but the guy I met and went out WITH FRIENDS with only ONCE went nuts on me and did the same thing, calling all hours of the day and night, showing up unannounced, at church when I picked up my daughter from Sunday school, he was sitting in a chair next to her and had no business even being there and didn't even go to my church. I asked the Sunday school teacher about it and she said he said he was my daughters stepfather!  I said, no, he is not and he's nuts.  I quit going to that church and I really liked that church, but I had to protect myself and my daughter.  Finally, when I was at work he broke into my house, broke every pane of glass in all of my family photos hanging on the wall and stole some of my panties from my dresser and there was a note in my underwear drawer and it had the B word written on it.  I was scared to death and I called the police and they arrested him.  I was so upset that I moved to another city that was still within driving distance of my job, I changed my phone number, and my brother even got me a different car so he wouldn't know I still worked at the same place because he would drive by and see my car.  When I got to work every morning, I parked out of sight and came in through the back instead of the front the way I used to.  Oh, I also changed my last name to my grandmothers last name. 


    For the last several years I have lived in another state and am happily married to a very nice man, but I'll never forget that horrible experience in my life.


    I did notice that but I hate to put my SS number on the internet. I know they said it is secure but
    how secure is anything.  I just wondered if anyone could give me an idea of the length of time it takes.  Thanks.
    Christmas Story is my number one off all time - never get sick of that flick! nm

    When I checked the 800 number for update on my IRS refund check to be mailed it is now
    a week later and no refund check in the mail after the date they gave on the 800 line.  Anyone else have this problem.
    Last night Bravo had "The 100 Scariest Movies Of All Time" and number one was ...sm

    Not easy....
    I have been there and it's not an easy decision to make.  I did get a second opinion and that really helped me make my final decision.  In my case it was possible cancer of the uterus.  When I thought about being a single mom and how much I wanted to see my daughter grow up and after getting the second opinion I had the surgery.  Although it was difficult to go through at the time it was really freeing.  No more times of the month, no more Kotex supplies, etc.  I have never regretted the decision since!  Get a second opinion, it's worth the time and effort!
    I think it would be easy, too, IF I had someone to do all the
    chopping and measuring for me!!! LOL!!!
    Does anyone have an easy way to keep a
    dog's teeth clean if they resist brushing?  I am concerned about her. I tried to brush them a few times and only was successful for part of the lower teeth. I know that if bacteria gets into the blood stream they can really become dangerously sick and even die from this. How about some items that can be bought at pet chain stores?  We should have started her out early to get used to it.  Any advice would be so appreciated. 
    easy way
    First of all, there IS no easy way!!

    My ex-SIL had gastric bypass right at about the time I started WW.

    Just a little background: I was always thin until I started working at home. Then I blew up. Ex-SIL and BIL had not seen me until the weight gain, so it was somewhat of a shock.

    Anyhow, we were in the process of embarking on our respective means of weight loss, and ex-BIL said to me, "At least you're doing it the hard way." I told him, without hesitation, that his wife was doing it the hard way. Dang!! She's the one getting cut open!!

    I know it was his way of encouraging me because he's nice that way, but it bothers me that people think surgery and accepting the risks involved is easy in any way, shape, or form.

    Man, I'm glad you can do the Tobasco. I don't think I would live without it LOL ;-)

    Wish you the best!
    very easy -
    all I do when I cook salmon is add an egg and some flour and fry it up - don't add too much flour or it will be dry and taste flour, just enough so that it will stick together.
    Here's an easy one
    I find hor'dourves are always nice. Have them before and then if anyone stays after dinner you can pull them back out later or the next day for snacks.

    Little smokie sausages, wrap each in 1/2 piece of bacon secured with a toothpick, and roll in brown sugar. Then bake in the oven until the bacon is done. They are really yummy and easy. line the cookie sheet with foil for easy cleanup cause the sugar can be messy.

    My mom also used to take cream cheese and spread it on a platter, top with a layer of cocktail sauce, and then crab meat (real or imitation). Serve with crackers.

    Rye bread is fantastic with dill dip. If you can find a round loaf of rye bread and hallow out the center and put the dip in the middle. Then the center part can be chopped up and placed around the outside for dipping. Later people can pull apart from the round "bowl" of bread to dip. Little to no clean up here.

    My mom used to do hor'dourves instead of dinner and then just make a ham and rolls in case anyone didn't have dinner yet. I'll keep thinking. I'm sure I can remember a few more easy ones that everyone always seemed to love.
    An easy gift would be
    to just get her a gift card to the mall in your area at the service desk, and she could use it at any of the stores there in the mall.

    If you want to get a gift, gift, do you know any of her interests?
    I know this will not be easy to read but I believe
    we are responsible for how others 'treat' us because we have allowed it.... not easy to accept - I know - because have been through this myself and it is hard to swallow but if you think about it - it does make sense. When others disrespect us, either by not treating us the same as we treat them or by doing other unacceptable things and we continue to allow them to do this w/o confronting - they will continue to do so and in order to stop you need to stop allowing it and stop accepting it - and realize you are worthy of more. It's a hard step to take and a long road to haul but it can be done. So sorry! Trust me - have been there myself and slip back every so often but it is worth it to change!
    Very easy for me- I have an account
    with 1 of the major shopping channels, have my television in my work room, sometimes watching a particular show and get the number, call up the site and order. It really does not take that long and I still get 2000-3000 or over a day, no sweat.
    Just take it slow and easy

    Don't rush into anything, and don't let him pressure you into moving faster than you are comfortable with. After all, if you do get together, hopefully you will have a lot of happy years ahead of you. There's no need to rush things in the beginning.


    I have been married for a long time to the same man (never divorced) but if we had taken more time in the beginning, we probably never would have gotten married. Outside circumstances kind of put us in a "do or die" position.


    We had a lot of unhappy years, especially in the beginning. So the one thing I always advise anyone who is contemplating marriage and/or a serious relationship is take your time.


    And good luck!


    How to make (sm) It is easy
    I bought a throw blanket, about 5' x 4' or so, then bought same size blanket fabric (had to trim it some so they are both same size. You put them one on top of the other and make cuts in about 2" or so, and about 1 inch apart so that you have fringe on three sides, but leave the top alone. They you just start tying both blankets together. It is kind of trial and error depending on how thick your blanket material is so you need to tye one and see if you need to cut in deeper or not. That's it! You just tie knots in the fringe on the three sides and you are done. If I can find a pic of one I'll try to post it for you.
    easy button sm
    I gave a gift to a home for troubled kids, attached a gift card to an easy button. Still getting thank you's. Just added a simple touch to money card which I don't like to give, but in this case it worked well, as kids are older, teenage troubled kids.
    LOL!! Let me make this easy for you...sm

    Lose the attitude, B! And I don't mean blondie. ;) The word I was referring to ends in an H, it also has an I in it too. Then throw in a T and a C and well, I think you are a smart girl. It will come to you. :)

    Sure it's easy to get addicted
    to food when you eat junk food, candy, cakes, McDonalds, ice cream, etc.  I've never seen an obese person who eats healthy.  If you are obese, you too are taking advantage of the healthcare system.  What does it matter to you about my health...I don't worry or ridicule obese people.  Comes down to it's none of your business.  I do not smoke on the streets, in front of children, or people who have health problems.  When I see an obese person stuff their face with crap and they weight 300 pounds, I find that disgusting.  They too are hurting themselves.  All addictions are the same no matter what even though you are too opinionated to see that!!
    What I do a lot and is super easy
    Is just take a bag of frozen vegetables, usually whatever I have. Broccoli/caul/carrots, broc/caul... or those new steam in the bag veggies. I just cook up some kind of whole wheat pasta, whatever I have, and then throw it together with the veggies. Sometimes I add some kind of pasta sauce or even just sprinkle with parmesan. If it's one of those packages of veggies that's already seasoned, that's really good too. I don't feel like pasta, I'll use rice instead. Quick and easy and you don't feel deprived because of all those veggies.
    Easy but good

    In a blender:  1 lg can whole tomatoes, 1-3 serrano peppers (sometimes even 1 is very hot, just depends on peppers at the time), Black pepper, Garlic Salt, Salt, and just a little Comino or Cumin (I have been told they are the same and I have tried them side by side and can't tell the difference.)  Blend and season to taste.  It will take more salt than you might think and just add a little by little of ingredients until you get it just like you like it.  My friends have always had to make a couple before getting it seasoned just right.  My bunco group requires this every month.


    Or this Pico Salsa:  4-6 tomatoes diced, 1 onion diced, 3-6 serrano peppers diced very small, cilantro chopped added to your taste, and 1 fresh lime squeezed for juice.  Season with Black Pepper, Salt, Garlic Salt all to taste and about 4 shakes of Worchestershire sauce.  This is great pico for eating with chips or added with many dishes.  My family prefers this at every gathering.


    This is all with Texas preferred heat, so you may want to cut down on the peppers and it all depends on how hot the peppers are that day.  The sauce and pico will get hotter over night, so be careful.  If your pico gets too hot, try adding tomatoes to cool it off.  Hot sauce requires adding more whole tomatoes to cool off but then you have to adjust your seasonings all over again.


    It would be easy in my house. He would tell me to never cut
