You are a wonderful example for others with your selfless work and heroic efforts to rescue others in need. May his family find peace and comfort during this difficult time. And thank you to the other rescuers that are still there helping the remaining hiker. You are doing a great job and we all appreciate it.

If she was this concerned, where was she when she saw the sun out knowing it was field day at the school? Why didn't she make a phone call and/or get in the car and go to the school herself. I find it funny that someone so concerned didn't even realize it was happening until after she got home from work. Sounds like she missed the memo - - or two.

We love our neighbors and realize that's a rare thing. Glad to hear that she was found and got treatment. That could have gone a lot worse.

(Not that I'm interested in finding out more. LOL) But, it did open to my eyes to yet another religion wandering our planet. It's a television show - hope it gets the ratings they're hoping for. I wont be one of them watching though.

Nobody can enforce them; the President himself finds ways around them; and ties the hands of the local officials that have the backbone to try to enforce them. They are called "prejudice" and "biased" and "profiling" - - but the criminals that refuse to go thru the already-in-place process of becoming a legal citizen are granted benefit after benefit while our jails fill up with the DUII's; the murderers; the rapists; the thieves -- all waiting for ICE to figure out what they can do with them. Ridiculous!

Sounds like a similar faith as Amish - kind of. Well, media always puts a spin on anything it comes in contact with - so take it all with grain of salt and move on. Every religion is going to have ones that don't fully "believe" and/or "comply" with the traditions and guidelines. And every religion is going to have someone that says they hated it and want to be as far away as possible from it. It's ridiculous that that is still considered news.

Is that not the same thing? NONE OF US know the truth behind either case, yet you scold those that assume guilty while you proclaim innocent under the same circumstances of cases being tried in the media. While I get your intent - be careful of the examples you use. It's not okay to make assumptions based on either guilt or innocence without solid evidence in either case. We were not there. We have no way of knowing who is telling the truth and who is lying. That's not for us to decide. It's for a court of law to decide. And that hasn't happened yet in either of these cases.

Even as I get older, I still love to go to amusement parks. Glad to hear they are updating the rides and giving people more thrill rides. They are a lot of fun! It's a great escape for a day of fun and sun.

A friend of ours had a medium sized "dixie cup" filled with the stuff. It was fun to play with. And, to those above, mercury is VERY heavy. That little cup was heavy to lift when I was a kid. I wouldn't want to drink the stuff, but come on - confiscating boots? Whatever . . .
