What do you think of healthcare for all? I am on the fence about this one. I do think that all CHILDREN should get healthcare regardless of healthcondion. As for adults...there are far to many "drains on society," who don't...

blognchick Definately! I don't want to pay to support junkies. I think all jobs should require drug testing. There are too many 100% clean people who can't find jobs while dope boy is gainfully employed and supporting his habbit.

blognchick Exactly! I don't care if it's state run, government run or all the insurance companies got together, made friends and created something that works. Of course I agree that those who can't work should still be taken care of. It's not their fault, they didn't ask...

blognchick I never said they were theives, just manipulating the system. I personally know several such people as my mother grew up on what is now the "bad side of town." She was friends with several people who did this. They had gold in their teeth, the latest brand...

blognchick I don't think we can cut out the insurance comanies. Think of the job loss that would cause! But they just need to be better regulated, hospitals too. I don't know how they can get away with charging upwards of $8 for two Tylonol! I am, fortunately for me,...

Today I joined our local library. I am quite surprised that it has taken me so long, but the truth is that I prefer to own books rather than borrow them. However, joining has been a revelation. I can now access sites online from...

blognchick Our library lets you on free for as long as you want...or until there is a waiting list. Then, once you've been on for 30 minutes you get booted. If there wasn't a waiting list, you could be on from open to close an never pay a penny!

I share my birthday with Zack Morris/Mark Paul Gosslar. I used to have a huge crush on him when he was on Saved by the Bell. Do you know what celebrity(ies) share your birthday? Do you even care?

blognchick I've never been a Pitt fan so I would say Zach Morris! That cute devilish charm has always been a turnon!

I personally think it's a great idea! Video games, even ones you wouldn't expect, are educational. They sharpen cognative thinking skills and problem solving skills. Most players don't even realize this is happening due to the...

blognchick Based on your opinion, there should not be any fiction books in libraries. Everyone should pay $20+ for books they want to read by James Patterson, Karen Kingsbury, Stephen King, Dan Brown, etc. If they can't afford it too bad, no fun for you. Of course, you'd...

blognchick Actually, it increases library usage. Teens are more apt to "while I'm here" check out a book. Also, many libraries carry books about game design, gaming careers and more. The games are not played in the middle of the library out in the open where it would...

blognchick Our library has a "meeting room" they use for gaming events so they don't distrub the other library users. They do get pretty loud and love to rock out with Guitar Hero 4.

Posts about moms who play video games. Is this wrong, wierd or totally cool. Are you a mom with game? Also, this includes moms of all ages from teens to "mature" shall we say. Does your mother game? All posts should mention...

blognchick I am a 28 year old mother of 2 and totally agree. It also gives my husband and I some common interest to discuss and challenge each other. The frustrating thing is when you play online as soon as you mention you are a mom they instantly think of their own...
