lifeistrulyshort I saw on Oprah recently about a "choking game" kids play to pass out and feel high. Maybe it was that. Was he alone? The rope marks could have been from a previous try at that. Just a thought. He also could have been trying to get someone's attention for some...

Organic Conditioner

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85146) • Shingle Springs, California 17 Aug 08

I am trying to buy organic as much as I can, not just for food but for beauty items. I have found a shampoo that I like but I can't find a conditioner that doesn't make my hair feel dry. It's long and it's colored and I know it...

lifeistrulyshort Try Aveda products, but go to the store or salon and ask for specific recommendations for your condition. They make several products and some might not be as moisturizing as others. My favorite is Damage Remedy.

lifeistrulyshort My heart is heavy for you. I was there, just like you. Our relationship was stale for years, and I kept trying to tell him that things needed to change. I suggested counseling, but it fell on deaf ears until I was walking out the door. My kids were 12 and 16,...

know21 @know21 (1250) • United States 12 Aug 08

lifeistrulyshort That is so sad. The child was only trying to get her attention. She probably kept talking without acknowledging her, and that made the little girl repeat herself. You are right, all she had to is whisper that she'd be done in a minute. Even explain that she...

Is summers getting shoeter?

carrieandjohn @carrieandjohn (554) • United States 10 Aug 08

As a mother I can remember when I was in school. I remember getting out of school about mid-May and heading back mid-August. With my girls I have noticed that school gets out later and later every year. It starts back sooner and...

Farve reinstated

know21 @know21 (1250) • United States 3 Aug 08

What do you think of Brett Farve being reinstated? Do you think he'll stay a packer, or go to different team?

4 responses

lifeistrulyshort I responded to your discussion last week, and since then, Brett became a Jet! I also wanted to say that Brett Swain did get to play almost the whole third quarter! He did pretty well! Not bad for a seventh round pick!
