    Cell phone in car ban

    Did anyone else see the news about them pushing to ban using a cell phone completely in a car? Do you think this is just another thing to take away rights or is it a positive thing. I use my cell phone in the car. I don't use it as much as I know others do but I do. I also remember when cell...

    Texting led to a Deadly Pileup

    People don't think crashes can happen to them because it hasn't, but all it takes is one mess up and it could be a bad accident. I've heard of numerous ones where I live. It's sad, but this is the world we live in. Half the people can't even drive without being on their phone and while they...

    what did you get her?

    I didn't really have a list for my lady, but I did get her some things I know she likes. We were supposed to have a cap on how much we spent, but when I was done shopping for her I was walking by Niketown and suddenly had the urge to spend a hundred more dollars on some Nike Shocks for her. Oops!

    Birthday gift for wife

    Get her flowers, a nice card that you write a romantic letter to her in, and some massage oils that you'll be using on her that night. Cook her a wonderful dinner and just be sweet and affectionate. She will love this. It's not all about an expensive gift, just make her feel special and show her...

    Basketball season

    Is anyone really looking forward to the late start of the NBA season? I think all the drama did was hurt the fans. The players will still be paid millions of dollars and all they did was have more vacation time. I think I'll just stick to college basketball for a while.

    Tired of "nice guys"

    To me a nice guy is someone that treats people with respect and is honorable. This has nothing to do with him picking up a female friend to have a relationship. I don't see anything nice about him assuming he is owed that.

    Public school

    I live in Florida too and I agree. I live in an area where there is a lot of crime and I don't think I'd want to raise children here. I also hear the schools aren't that great either. I don't know how involved the teachers are, but I'm sure they just do the best with what they get in their classes.

    BB gun

    I got my first high powered BB gun for my birthday when I was in the sixth grade. I don't remember my age at that time, but I know I was older than 10. My father taught me how to shoot and gun safety. I did have a friend with a Red Ryder BB gun when I was younger than 10 though. We were...

    Plans for the break?

    I don't have any plans really, but I do have some time off for some renovations that are going to be going on in my kitchen and bathroom. I'm having brand new flooring, countertops, and cabinets put in. We are pretty excited about it. I love new upgrades in my home.

    Unemployment Drops to 8.6%

    Christian is right, people don't understand that unemployment number. Many people stopped looking for a job. I personally couldn't ever do that if I was out of work, because I wouldn't want to be homeless. The unemployment number is actually higher than what is shown every Friday.

    It's only been a week

    Of the two radio stations I listen to, one plays Christmas music non-stop since before Thanksgiving and the other only plays it part of the time. I love listening to the Christmas music because it just brings back many memories.

    This weather is insane!

    I think it's nice out. I woke up to weather in the 50's today. It's supposed to be a high in the 70's for the next few days and then back up to the 80's. I'm looking forward to even cooler weather so I can listen to all the people complain. :D

    Took in a stray . . .

    It's usually pretty easy to tell which cats are homeless. Often times, they are pretty skinny. I've taken in three strays and gave them a nice home. I'd take in more if I could because I feel bad when I see stray animals, but I really can't now.

    If money wasn't an issue

    I would buy season tickets to all of my favorite sports teams and hire someone to professionally decorate my face and hair with paint for every single Dolphin's game. I'd pay for my friends to go with me to all the games too. I would hire a chef for at home if I was rich too.

    This is scary

    My suggestion is don't be a suspected terrorist! Joking aside, it's interesting to see what our government can keep coming up with to make our great country so much better. Seems to me like they have a failing record as of lately.

    Imaginary friends

    I'm pretty sure almost everyone has had some imaginary friend at some time in their lives. I've seen a lot more mothers and grandmothers have more imaginary friends than anyone. They are always talking to themselves. Don't deny it. I know plenty including my own mother and grandmother.

    Stretching the food budget

    I say use a lot of coupons. We have been really focusing on them to save money. The problem with coupons is that they are mainly for junk food items instead of produce and meat. I wish they had coupons for the more important and healthy foods.

    BBQ ribs

    Out of all the places I've been on my recent rib craze, not one has been at those small restaurants like you mention. They've all been at large franchises. Off hand, I can't even think of any small restaurants in my area that serve ribs. Usually, they are Italian or some kind of Spanish restaurants.

    Aging parents

    My parents are all in their 60's now, but I haven't been faced with this yet. To be honest, I'm not ready for it and would be hoping one of my brothers could help or my step siblings as well. I'm in no position to have anyone come live with me at this time.

    BBQ ribs

    Aside from home cooked ribs, what is your favorite restaurant to get the most delicious ribs from? Please don't say the McRib sandwich at Mc Donald's. :p I think Long Horn Steakhouse and Outback are my favorite. I'm always looking for new one's to try though.
