Will not Christians be saved? For example you were born to a family of non christians or a family of a different religion and therefore you don't know anything about Christ but you still follow your religion and you are good. Will...

owatagoosiam Well, the Catholic Church is careful to say "no." See, Christian churches don't want to validate other religions. That would make other religious valid competition. The Christian theologers are going to want to tell you to come to and tithe to a Christian...

Do you think Lil Bush's comments might have sparked the Dow to drop 300+ today so far? I also found it very interesting that Dubya did not even know gas prices are expected to soar to $4.00+ this Spring. It really shows how in...

owatagoosiam I believe, although I can't prove, that the small 'stimulus' given to individuals was used to hide significant business advantages for big business. Kind of like 'pork' attached to normal legislation. So, in this case, getting the money is supposed to make us...

The housing market is poor. Homes are sitting for sale. Interest rates are not at all time lows, but still low. It seems to me, if I have a good credit score that I might still be able to get a loan to cover a second house and...

owatagoosiam :) Oh, you are so funny. Actually, Mr. Roomate is looking at getting his own condo. So, soon his exacting demands on the dog won't matter.

My sister has started to make some candies and share them with my family. They are very good treats and we enjoy them very much. We now have a lot more of these candies in our house than we would normally keep on hand and I'm...

owatagoosiam Now, see, shouldn't you be putting a link up to your toffee page here. I handed out some of my candy supplies at a party last night and everyone enjoyed them. Jeff has been on a diet, so he really enjoyed the nice Keoke and the Orange sample I...

Apparently, tattoo removal has been on the rise recently. Or, at least, they are publishing articles about removing tattoos again. Some people get quiet extensively tattooed. Such that I don't think they can ever remove them...

owatagoosiam That sounds like malpractice to me. Six shots all at once. Did your son recover fully or did this affect him for the rest of his life?

First i was a bit stunned. We cannot afford a cruise. I say NO. Then I asked why. Our bank is giving cuples 2 free tickets to go on a cruise. If we take out a home equity loan. Would you do this?

owatagoosiam There are two strategies for this circumstance. First, check to ensure there is no prepayment penalty. That's important. Then see if it is a home equity loan or a home equity line of credit. (They are different, one is a loan and the other is the ability to...

There are some books, apparently written for children, which adults can read and still enjoy. One example would have been "The Hobbit" which I believe was intended to be read by a younger audience. Another, more recent, example...

owatagoosiam I read the Hobbit in Junior High. It seemed to follow it at the time. In fact, I read the whole series one after the other. I would guess that I probably didn't know all the words, either. I most likely just skipped those parts. Then again, Tolkien as a...

owatagoosiam Oh, wow. I rather thought the giving tree was a bit.. well, overly giving. But, I guess, in many ways that's a sort of symbolism for parents, isn't it. I should read it again.

owatagoosiam :) My daughter is a bit young for stories about accusations of murder, I think. But I can see how in a few years she might be more interested in it. Then again, I can read science and discovery type books to her and she has fun with them. Maybe I'm not giving...

owatagoosiam Normal wet nose. Tends to lick her skin (we were told she has skin allergies). Not a lot of whining except for attention. I've never notice her ear hair, so I'll have to make a point of checking. Thanks for the tip about not going into the ear canal. I...

owatagoosiam I'll give her a happy rub from "cami_love" and she'll look all confused, but love it nonetheless. She didn't have an infection last time, and unless I have some particular reason to mistrust the vet's qualifications, I feel a bit weird just going to another...

owatagoosiam I am certain my wife would be willing to pay for the visit. But I see no real reason to mistrust the vet who examined the dog first time around. The question was more about how long to wait before following up again.

owatagoosiam You were the only one to mention a toothache. That isn't something that I would have considered, either. Sort of a radiating pain from a tooth bothering her, which she feels in her ear. I don't think she'd get a foxtail in her ear, because we have a small back...

owatagoosiam I wanted to thank you for all the details in your response. I will have to make time to take the dog back to the vet and, certainly, I can look for this Oti-Clean product, too. I do believe there was one time that I saw scratches on her ear, which might have...

owatagoosiam I will have to take a closer look at her ears. I had just supposed that the Vet would see and tell me if there was a problem with ear wax. I don't think it would hurt to try cleaning out her ears myself to see if that helps.
