lol, well it kind of depends on who is asking that. When I listen to people like bosses, people giving instructions/directions/important information, I get mad, because it's like they are saying that I'm lazy/too stupid to ask them to repeat/clarify. I will be honest though. At work I never...

The first couple seasons are amazing. Just brilliant. They are almost as brilliant as the BBC "the Office". But now I will watch former seasons looking for topics that I lauhed at, but didn't realize how ingnorant I was being by doing so. Sigh, my 30 minutes of mindless fun is tainted.

My husband regrets getting out now. He was very good at it. I say the same thing "Thank God for being HOH, or I would be in Iraq right now". I failed my physical due to my loss when I was 17. I know I would be a blind flag waving war monger if I had been able to join. Instead I was...

I hate it for various reasons. When I first started losing my hearing I freaked out, not because of any stigma, but because I didn't know what to expect. After 10 years I can just barely hear myself talk without my aids. I've come to enjoy the silence. I know that I am who I am (and I...

Tis ok. I hope I don't come across as badgering. I like to talk about this, even if we will always disagree and run around each other's points. If I ever seem rude, let me know (though I will probably argue it! ha!), but please know it is never intentional.

I got your point the first time around. Yes she does (I'm not sure what she does exactly, clerical is in her profile) in a small way. My nit pick was that she is paid by tax payers, via the US Government. To say she was paid by war mongers, to me, is to say everyone in this country...

You post #16 How can you be anti-war and yet draw a paycheck from what you consider to be warmongers? That doesn't make sense. Who is the commander in chief?

hmm, maybe you haven't been reading the news. The military isn't doing so well in meeting it goal for new recruits. Which is why you see soldiers on their fourth or fifth deployment, tours being extended, etc. You are missing my point. I don't believe that the military is doing anything...

lol, my point was you aren't taking money from war mongers, you are paid by tax payers. No biggie. I didn't like the fact Reba insuated that Bush is king and pays people with his money.

Yes it is a job to many. I tried enlisting when I was 17. The only reason I wanted to enlist was for college, as my father's military pay didn't cut it. My recruiters always had little functions for their potential recruits. I went to school with many of them. Excluding one, none of us were...

true, but the money she collects is paid by you and I. It's OUR money.

love it love it love it. I never thought that one day I would find Crab Fishing one of the most interesting things! I hate seafood! But I love this show.

I would love to think that (seriously you don't know how much I love scrubs, hate most of TV), but the show has never had a problem with the characters realizing that they were being ignorant, selfish, judgemental, etc. If anything I took the episode like they were trying to show how...

I was really pissed off by this episode. Scrubs is one of my all time favorite shows, and they really disappointed me. They acted as if a CI was going to be like a pair of glasses. "voila, perfect hearing! The kid is "fixed" "

So are you saying that we should shut up or speak up depending how our soldiers feel? THAT'S the freedom you say they are defending for me right now? Wow, that almost sounds like you would wish us to be a military state instead of a democracy.

Well I was an ARMY brat, am now married to a former Russian Interpreter for the Air Force. So your dad "fought for my freedoms" to just tell me to SHUT YOUR MOUTH?. My father supports this war 100%, but my father taught me what he was REALLY fighting for, and that was for me to have no fear...

Not the person this was in response to, but it's NOT THEIR mission. It's their job. They didn't wake up one day and say "I think I'll chance getting myself killed, if I'm really lucky maybe I can kill them before they do me". No it was the jerks in the white house who sent them there. Guess...

But.....I have never heard of it before. Many friends of mine got back from the war. They're fine. But they are not to prefer to talk about it. oh well if they are fine, your anecdotal evidence must be spot on! One of my friends has been to Iraq for 7 times. Because he's sick of listening to...

I do almost burst out laughing. Usually the person means well, so I don't tend to take offense. I usually reply "I bet I'm a more attentive driver, I can't use a cell, I'm ALWAYS checking my mirrors, I'm always aware of drivers around me, etc". It usually takes about 2 seconds for the person...

Depends on who is running. I'm a borderline anarchist. But I just can't get the little bit of hope that elections might really mean something out of my heart (don't worry I'm working on it). The only way I will vote for one of the 2 parties is if Dennis Kucinich wins the primary. Since that...
