gurl976 I don't think so. This website isn't about grammer, its about the ideas. I do give it s (-) if the ideas or responses are not great, but i dont give a (-) if it is poorly written. English isn't many people's native tongue, and to penalize them on an informal...

gurl976 It might look the same, but it's all about how you wear it. if you wear it like everyone else, you will look generic and like a clone. You need to accessorize it and put your own twist on things. Maybe a belt, scarf or earrings to make the look diffrent....

gurl976 Husband and wife is family. When you get married, that is your new family. If you want kids and can't have kids - try and adopt. There are sooo many unwanted children in the world, and if you are a loving couple who wants children, why not adpot a child

gurl976 I think thats a good idea. your family will all be there and I don't think your son will mind too much b/c he's 7. Your family will appreciate it and its will be more like a holiday gathering more so than a birthday - so your son wont mind. I had a big family...

gurl976 I understand why you have limits on your daughter, but don't forget - the tighter the limits, the more they will rebel. Try to understand that 20 mins on the phone isn't very much time for a teenager. She will find other ways, and she did via text. I think...

Should people who use food stamps be forced to buy generic?

crazynurse @crazynurse (7482) • United States 4 Jan 07

Since food stamps are government funded, should folks who use them be forced to buy generic products when possible? Wouldn't this stretch the dollar further to be able to help more people?

gurl976 making money over the internet is very difficult. First, its hard to find a genuine offer which is real, and when you do, they ususally don't pay too much. i guess the concept behind it is that isn't really work work, its more like sharing of your opinon.
