Toni LoCicero I have to add that from when I was about 4 years old mom would always put her ashtray at my place at the table. If I tried to move it I would get told that she was going to use it after breakfast. There is nothing as gross as a filthy ashtray with cigarette...

Toni LoCicero I have asthma from living with my mother's smoking. First until I was 18 years old and then when I moved back in with her when my father died when I was 27, Mom didn't make it past 74 years old and it was her smoking that did her in. She smoked Pall Mall's...

OK, so the person he killed was older: 80-years-old. And a dog lover. But she's still a human being. And I like animal lovers. If he had killed someone in the past, and had something like eight felony convictions, why was he out...

Toni LoCicero It entered my mind that the punishment should match the crime. IE, if the criminal pulls the person from their vehicle, throws them in the path of the vehicle then runs them over with the same vehicle...but too many people would yelp "That's cruel and unusual...

Toni LoCicero I got a letter from the electric company. I figured they were complaining that I didn't send them any money yet (which I had). So I opened the envelope and they were congratulating me on using less electricity than even the energy efficient homes. BFHD!!!!...

If I never mentioned it before, although I am certain I have, the neighbors we had next door, who were renters, were slobs. I mean, their garbage was often foul and overflowing. They'd leave the garbage cans out long after...

Toni LoCicero Keep an eye on the dumpster. It kind of sounds like a hollow warning, but people will cruise the streets looking for just the kind of set up that is by your place and they will start dumping their trash there, including old furniture etc. I've even heard of...

Toni LoCicero I am the same way about repeat offenders. My exhusband was a repeat sexual offender and child molester. He also was heavy into child pornography. He died in May of this year in Nevada...uhhh, he should have had some important male equipment cut off (not that...

Toni LoCicero First and foremost, don't be frightened!!! When you're out and around do you happen to notice older people that are slumped over? Thats from the bone density loss, or osteoporosis. Now, you need to start taking your vitamins. Vitamin D and calcium are at...

Well, the wifey is not feeling well today. She caught a little cold, it seems. I hope I don't get it, but I tend to take a lot of vitamins and so (knock on wood), I rarely get sick. In any event, I always keep a can or two of...

Toni LoCicero That has been one of the fastest growing industries in the U.S.. I couldn't believe how fast California's wine industry has grown over the past years...it's like we're breeding a bunch of wineo's. The thing is, how many can the nation support? We've already...

Toni LoCicero It reminds me of living out in the woods among the oak trees towards October/November. The acorns will drop and rattle down the metal roofs with a bangity bang bang that is a horrible noise and it would go on all night long. The deer would come along and...

Toni LoCicero Part of what scares a person is the unknown of death. I will say that I have lost very dear loved ones and have had them come visit me from beyond. In fact last night I had visits from very dear loved ones that have passed quite awhile ago. Like Lenore...

Toni LoCicero I wonder with so many of these hate filled people, how many learned about "HATE" from an early age? How many never learned the value and preciousness of love and expressing encouragement and good feelings? I have watched a lot of Olympic events and instead...

Toni LoCicero My two brats are pampered, spoiled, inside babies. They aren't allowed outside to do anything including hunt. Freya will chase flies when they manage to come inside, but that's about the extent of her hunting. As for a gecko or lizard if either of them...

Toni LoCicero I wish there was a way that you and your beautiful cats could move in with me. Trying to exist with a "person" that has that much anger locked up inside him is horrible!!! Somehow, someway, someone has to get to the source of that anger. It isn't doing...
