Why not return the favor with his tools. I'm sure there are a number of his tools that need a new home due to lack of use.

<t>Four years old? Really?!<br/> <br/> I remember when the style was 'crew cuts'. Then the Beatles and mini skirts hit the scene. Long hair was not accepted by the hard core establishment. Progressive school were OK with it as long as it was neat and clean. Those in the middle struggled and acceptan...

<t>This sounds alot like my mother-in-law. She's been repeating herself constantly for maybe 5 years. It's been slowly, but surely getting worsel. It drives my wife nuts. She also started slurring her words one day, a couple of months ago. She also was pronouncing her words incorrectly and dropping ...

<t>Call him and tell him how you feel. Without question, it will make you both feel better. I know from first hand experience. I had a girlfriend that I loved when I was about 20, but I couldn't tell her my true feelings. Probably because I wasn't really the kind of person that expressed his feeling...

By the same token, if you showed the child that the hundred dollar bill will open a plexiglass door to the pile of candy bars (that he can also see), I'm sure he'll quickly learn that he can make that "immediate pleasure" last a hell of long time.

One of the best.

Try these:

Shawshank Redemption

Always (may be difficult to get)

Ghost

Big

Apollo 13

An Officer and a Gentleman

Top Gun

Back to the Future

The text is MOSTLY acurate.

Here's a link to a copy of the broadcast:

It makes my misty every time I hear it.

<r>In today's news:<br/> <br/> Student's Death Turns Spotlight on Hazing The death of a drum major in the Florida A&M marching band has turned a spotlight on a culture of hazing in the band and prompted four investigations into it.<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/01/us/florid...

Well, obviously, you need to take up smoking and start breathing on them like you're going into labor.

Hmmm...maybe we should also include breath that's bad enough to kill a cockroach.

Waddda ya think?

<t>I'd say, that if you're alone in the car it's OK. If there are any non-smokers in the car and you're smoking - a fine. And to avoid the fine for the driver, you have to prove to the cop that you are a bona-fide passenger smoker by lighting up right there in front of him and your teeth MUST be wit...

US law does not allow it.

At one time it was an accepted induction ritual that was thought to be harmless.

Then people got hurt and died.

Then laws were enacted to prevent hazing.

Bullying in schools is following the same path at this time.

Hi Ahso!

I'll have to check your other posts.

I tried to answer all of the post that responded to me.

I wasn't ignoring you...sorry about that.

I'll hunt them down and check it out.

Too bad there was no speedometer.

No.

<t>Hi Ahso!<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I think you're right - there are alot of children up for adoption.<br/> <br/> So, those mothers didn't choose abortion. Glad to hear that.<br/> <br/> I know there are a lot of couples waiting in line to adopt children also.<br/> <br/> So, the better question might ...

I will answer this response next week...but I wanted to thank you for greeting of "Welcome"...it felt nice.

Difficult dilemma.

A couple of months before I was born, a man died of a heart aneurism. His brain, they later found out, was smaller than normal. While an infant he didn't speak until he was 2 years old. His name was Albert Einstein.

<t>I grew up in the 60's.<br/> <br/> While it was a time of free love and all of that, it was also a time of self-centered-ness and laws not yet catching up to what people were doing. Back then, go into any movie theater, store or even a doctor's office, and everyone is smoking a cigarette. Nobody c...

I grew up.

And then I saw how helpless a child is in relation to the whims of the parent.

When I was growing up, things were very different.

<t>Pro-rape?...that almost made me laugh.<br/> <br/> That's violence - and I don't condone violence.<br/> <br/> And you're right - I don't know it's like to be raped.<br/> <br/> And I will never know what it's like to carry a child.<br/> <br/> And maybe I need to clarify my position on this point.<b...

<t>Before I was married, I was for it.<br/> <br/> After I had my son, I was against it.<br/> <br/> Funny how your perspective changes after you're a father.<br/> <br/> I kind of look at abortion as a "Get Out of Jail Free" card.<br/> <br/> In my opinion, if you're adult enough to have sex, you shoul...
