Father kills self, daughter by crashing plan into in-laws' house

kesfylstra @kesfylstra (1868) • United States 6 Mar 07

This sounds like something from TV, but it truly happened. Today (March 6) in Indiana, a man put his 8 year old daughter in the passenger seat of a plane, flew around for a bit, then crashed it into his ex-wife's mother's house....

kesfylstra Hey, you seem to have a very good answer already, but I just wanted to comment and say that this was very interesting. I was not conscious of this difference. It's funny because I am reading Lee Strobel's "The Case for Christ" at the moment which deals with...

Adults dating children?

lillake @lillake (1630) • United States 6 Mar 07

I was reading online a woman who was upset that her friend is allowing her 16 year old daughter to date a 33 year old man. How do you feel about relationships like that? Do you think some one that young can handle a...

kesfylstra I don't know if I would think the adult is sick, but at least a little off his rocker. I dated a man in his late 30s when I was 20. At the time I thought it was the greatest thing ever, but looking back I seriously wonder what I was thinking, and why he was...

kesfylstra @kesfylstra (1868) • United States 2 Mar 07

Guliani is known for cleaning up New York City, sometimes in ways that some considered unfair. But, he got the job done. He also made some differences on the world stage within NYC. Do you think America can benefit from his kind...

kesfylstra Hehe, you are straightforward person, huh. I do agree. Hopefully New Yorkers will put their loyalty behind the right one, if they end up the final choices.

kesfylstra @kesfylstra (1868) • United States 2 Mar 07

On March 1st, the Associated Press revealed that they had indeed put a weeklong ban on Paris Hilton news, to see if anyone would notice. Apparently, no one did. Good for us! Do you feel this was a good idea, or a misuse of...

Do you find yourself caring more about Anna Nicole Smith...

kesfylstra @kesfylstra (1868) • United States 2 Mar 07

in death than in life? I would never bother to read an article about her when she was alive, but for some reason I need to know every detail of her funeral and the ensuing legal battles over it and her daughter. Any one else?

kesfylstra I bring my purse with me whenever I leave the house. If I'm driving, I of course need my license, and at any rate, ID is always good to have on you in case of an emergency, along with your healthcare information if you are in a country that works on that kind...

kesfylstra I have been looking too, and it does seem like mostly everything is a scam. I think there are some good companies out there for from-home sales and the like, but that is not my thing. So, I make what I can on MyLot, and on Associated Content, where I write...

kesfylstra I think people who do not yet have children just don't comprehend what it is about. They think they have answers, but that is meaningless until you actually have a tiny person who is solely your responsibility. Suddenly it's like "OH, that's why parents always...

Can a guy fall in love with two girls?

boyfriend2k4 @boyfriend2k4 (398) • Australia 6 Mar 07

Do you think can a guy fall in love with two girls at the same time?

relationship

2 responses

kesfylstra I think you choose to love. You can become infatuated or attracted to two girls at a time. And yes, I suppose someone could decide to pursue an emotional relationship with two women who he begins to equally care for, but he's a jerk if he does!

kesfylstra Faith is the most powerful thing in the world, I think. It is lack of faith that inhibit us from taking advantage of that power. True faithful prayer has been seen to work miracles.

His Music...Not his choices

cyclonewriter @cyclonewriter (2168) • United States 6 Mar 07

Is there not anyone in the world besides me that sees Michael Jackson as a talented musical icon? His choices in the past have been lousy, but I sure can't take from his talent. I have a couple of his songs on my MP3 player as a...

kesfylstra I honestly do not like his music either, so really he doesn't do anything for me. But I guess I can agree with your point, which is viewing him as a musician--I just don't care for his work.
