But the real sad pathetic thing is, the girl friend will wait for him because she loves him and he didn't me to do it, boo hoo.

Why did the girls have to hide the trip in November? 2. Why did they have to keep the meeting in December under the radar? 3. Who was the anonymous parent that sent the anonymous e-mail?(how can it be anonymous when parents provide their e-mail for communication purposes) 4. It is very apparent that the "anonymous parent" has sour grapes and went to her friend the Super and had it all put down.

God created the planet we live on / God created all living things on the planet / God created man in his own image / God said there is only one true God. Look at the planet we live on, is everyone the same or different? Could God be the original designer of Diversity? God created a planet of different cultures and faithes, yet only one true God. Maybe God appears to those cultures in what ever form they vision their God to be. Maybe when it is all said and done, maybe all the faithes are one in the same. For me I'm a Christian and that is how God comes to me. I believe everyone has the right to their own believes and I have the right to mine. Please do not tread on mine and I won't tread on yours.

Sure jump on the Black Friday sales and celebrate the holiday, by taking the time off of work and accept gifts or bonuses for the holiday they do not even believe in. What a bunch of a holes.

Why is it when any culture displays a symbol of their,......faith, let say, for sake of argument and someone disagrees or feels uneasy. They are being accussed of discrimination or get accussed of infringing on their rights. But when lets say someone of the christian faith, who gets stepped on every time they turn around, just as to accept it a move on. I really feel that the christian faith it is starting to become the minority. I think it is time they start to yell discrimination and fight for their rights.

The guy who supposedly kidnapped her and who she was riding around with was her brother. The boyfriend was with PD when they saw a vehicle with her in it, that some what matched what she discribed. They followed it north on I380, ran the plate and it came back to her brother.

It appeared he had already cut himself, he was scaring the hell out of other people in the store both employees and customers. The officer tried to talk with the individual, advised him to drop the knife, tazed him to comply and was left with no choice. The officer had to protect the other people in the store and himself. When you have to fire your weapon, you shoot to kill, not to wound. God shooting.

Peace be with you Doris, if no family, at least you had alot of friends.

I have heard some cities will fine a pet owner if they are found in violation. They give you so many days to comply or they add a percentage for each day you remain in violation. If you do not pay the fine they add it to your property taxes. I also noticed that through the cost of the license they do encourage pet owners to have their pet spayed or neutered.

But do they sometimes go over the top and take that power they have and abuse it.....maybe. This goes both ways. There are some people that join the military to get that power trip (I served in the military, how dare you touch me, I'm a living GOD!) Not all but some.

The military maybe in charge in another country, but law enforcement is in charge here at home. If you want respect for what you (military) did, then give respect for what they (law enforcement) are doing now. Law enforcement puts their lives on the line every day and do not receive the respect or perks the military does.

Pretty sad, the driver was a 10-96 mental subject, nothing serious. The police had delt with the individual earlier in the evening and thought everthing was resolved. How he ended up where he did, who knows. Lets just hope he is okay and gets the help he needs.

If it is a multi space meter, how do they tell which car to ticket when time expirers? 2. If you go to park for 15 minutes and you get delayed, because you're in Alliant paying your HUGH bill, does it automatically collect more off your card info? 3. Will the new meters take only plastic? If so I'll have to use my card to park for 1 hour, plus pay a debit charge or finance charge on my card..
