I Just Got Up From Sleep To Find Out 2 Shoes Were Thrown At Bush In Iraq.

elmiko @elmiko (6630) • United States 14 Dec 08

I saw the video just now where the reporter missed at connecting on the 2 shoes being thrown at Bush. I guess this will be a part of presidential history where people can look back at the George W. Bush years as president. Yeah...

bam001 hornswaggled --you said exactly what I was thinking! Thank you! To danishcanadian --President George W. Bush did not single-handedly send troops overseas. Our Congress voted for the sending of troops. Like Hornswaggled said, the U.S. operates on democracy. I...

Selling Handmade Items

bam001 @bam001 (940) • United States 22 Nov 07

I like to craft. My favorite hobby is making candles. I start with a very good soy blend wax --I color and scent it and then pour it into containers and/or molds. Second, I make handbeaded bracelets, necklaces and earrings....

Are you a good American?

jchampany @jchampany (1130) • United States 4 Apr 07

Okay you red-blodded Americans...lets see how you do on this test. How well would you do if you took the citizenship test? Try it out, it's educational and fun. 24 out of 30 is considered a passing grade. Supposedly 96%...

bam001 I too wonder what is happening in the schools. I know that we have hard-working teachers...I am a teacher, though not in a public system. I have friends who teach in public schools and the stories they tell are eye-opening. It seems that so many students just...

Do you think it is alright for our American jobs to be oursourced?

Monica @momoftwingirls (859) • United States 16 May 07

If you do, why? Do you understand that if all our jobs are oursourced, our nation just might crumble? Do you want this and what can we do to stop this from happening? I got it, I got it!! Do not vote people into office who are...

bam001 I understand your point...and you are looking at coming to the U.S. and joining the U.S. workforce here in American. Your working here in the fields that you have listed, wouldn't be an outsourcing of work. I would expect that if you were to come here and...

arvee17 @arvee17 (730) • Philippines 13 Jan 07

Here is the thing... my best friend, who just had her second baby a month and a half ago, started working again even though it is quite difficult for her and still painful for her to travel because she had c.s. I tried to...

bam001 I started to leave this one alone, but I just have to comment...first of all, helping the friend financially might be generous, but probably not the best thing to do in this case. Second, why would the person who posted this discussion need to get a good...

bam001 I don't think this is a good excuse for not working. When you have children to support, you work whatever job you can get...whether you like it or not. And if the job causes stress, you deal with it like a man.

bam001 @bam001 (940) • United States 23 Nov 06

Do you eat beef products? If so, what is your favorite? I do eat beef, though not as often as I'd like. I need the iron, so I probably need to incorporate more beef into my diet. Right now, I could go for a really thick...

Not speaking the national language....

Silverchic @Silverchic (396) • Australia 17 Dec 06

Does it bother anyone else when you see people that can't speak the language of the country they are living in? Now I don't mean tourists - although as a tourist I do attempt to learn at least a couple of words in their native...

bam001 I don't think we have a national language in the U.S. But, we need to get up off our B*** and push our elected representatives to get that bill in action. I am tired of enduring all the foreign languages. I am tired of a lot of things like that. It...

Do uou have increasingly painful periods? If so, you should really get it checked out with your OB/Gyn. In my forties I started having cramps so bad that I couldn't sit at my desk at work w/o taking six Aleve's! I found out I...

bam001 Algebra is relevant. It teaches you to think through a problem and use a logical approach to solving problems...not just math problems. We use some algebra when determining the steepness of a road. I think this is very important...especially when roads...
