Simple Things in Life You Enjoy

Sunrises and sunsets, listening to wind chimes, playing with my dogs, hearing a great song I haven't heard in ages, laughing with the people I love the most... heck, we don't have it so bad, do we?  (23 hrs ago | post #35)

Do you believe in ghosts?

I guess OCD doesn't go away after death! I love your story. That poor lady probably loved the interaction with you guys. Kinda freaky, though! I guess I'd rather have a ghost mess with my stuff than me!  (Yesterday | post #89)

Your thoughts on tonights debate?

Yeah, I don't envy the next president one bit. I have a theory that given our current econmic situation, the next president is doomed to go down in history as being ineffective. Our situation isn't one that I feel can be turned around in 4 years. I also feel a sense of peace in finding a candidate I am proud to back. The only thing that still irks me is the media's refusal to give equal time and mention of ALL the candidates. Even though I've already decided on my candidate, I still want to know what the others are saying. I want to be informed on all levels, and it'd be great if an unbiased media actually existed...  (Yesterday | post #128)

Your thoughts on tonights debate?

Hurley, I may have to write you in... Hurley '08!! I share your concern and anger. I'm surprised I still have hair left on my head; it seems I've been ripping it out more than usual lately...  (Wednesday | post #122)

How will you vote, for Medical Marijuana? Why?

Wow, what a bittersweet story. Such a horrible way for anyone to die. I'm sorry it happened to your friend. He sounds like he was a great guy. I too, know the horror of watching a loved one die a long death full of pain. I am voting in favor of this as well. I pray it passes. It's desperatly needed and long overdue.  (Wednesday | post #756)

How will you vote, for Medical Marijuana? Why?

Yeah, like folks from AIG who thought it'd be a swell idea to dupe our government into giving them OUR money to party it up with... I suppose we'll be footing their bill either way. Send them to jail and we still have to pay to feed, clothe, and house them. We're screwed either way.  (Wednesday | post #753)

Is everyone fed up with politics and this economy?

Good thing there more than just two candidates to choose from, huh? Obama and McCain equally suck. Thank God for Bob Barr.  (Wednesday | post #4)

Has John McCain become desperate?

Really? Is that why he voted "yes" to Bush's 700 billion dollar bailout? Because he cares so much for the middle class? He sold us down the river, right with McCain.  (Wednesday | post #131)

Fed to buy massive amounts of short-term debt

Great quiz, thanks for the link! I would absolutely LOVE a debate with the other (and IMHO more qualified) candidates.  (Wednesday | post #20)

Favorite Funny Song

Is that Heywood Banks? I love Bulbous Bouffant if you can call that a song. There's some a cappella in there, that counts, right?  (Tuesday Oct 7 | post #7)

Debate stakes higher for McCain

Yeah, so why vote for EITHER of them? Don't sell yourselves short, you have more than two options!  (Tuesday Oct 7 | post #9)

Debate stakes higher for McCain

Vote Barr/Root'08. I don't think Obama or McCain would be very benefical for our country. Each have made promises that neither can really keep, especially since BOTH voted in favor of Bush's BS Bailout plan. That plan seems pretty un-patriotic if you ask me. People shouldn't believe in someone who doesn't even stand for our country's patriotism - true. But a real leader needs more than just a military history or a bunch of mud slinging campaign commericials.  (Tuesday Oct 7 | post #3)

McCain pulling out of Michigan

I have to say I take great offense to your comment that a vote for a 3rd party is throwing it away. I'd say voting for the lesser of two evils for the sake of keeping the greater evil out of office would be throwing my vote away. I will vote third party because I believe in my heart of hearts it is the right thing to do. I have researched the candidates and have considered how their values will affect our nation. I will vote for the candidate who I feel will best serve this country. I refuse to believe that because the press only concentrates on two candidates that my choices are limited to those two. I would recommend that everybody does the necessary research when deciding who will receive their vote. Don't rely on the debates just what the local press reports. It's your responsibility to cast an educated vote.  (Tuesday Oct 7 | post #241)
