My 10 year old saw this book at a book store awhile back, and really wanted it. Hubby and I thought it was sort of pointless at the time, so did not buy it. For Easter each of the kids got $20 from Aunt Doris, and the 10 year old...

polaroidsredwine Ah yes, these are fairly common - I remember seeing these sorts of things stuck in at school book fairs when I was younger. There are girl versions, too! They can be pretty fun and some of them are even like activity books to share among friends. They're...

40 Years ago today. The insidious U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion. weather you are pro life, or pro choice. I am asking all my my-lot friends to please take a moment and say a prayer, for all the children...

polaroidsredwine Alas, God's law is not the authority where I am. That is not the only definition of death - a heartbeat is only part of what keeps the body ticking. There's also this thing called a brain that's kind of necessary to function. At fourteen days, the child...

I am sure almost everyone has a strange habit or two. I for one have one very strange habit that may be a little disgusting to some people, but researching on the net; apparently a lot of people do it so it may not be so...

polaroidsredwine My weirdest habit has to be my scalp picking ...I can sit for hours and rake through my hair, fingernails against my scalp, and if I find anything that feels irregular I carve away - usually it's just picking at dandruff but I've picked to the point where I've...

polaroidsredwine Has anyone ever mentioned the lives that were killed by anti-abortionists? Dr. George Tiller, murdered in cold blood while at church, and this isn't even touching on the threats to his life beforehand (there are entire articles devoted to documenting...

polaroidsredwine Echoing what others have said: the male to female ration worldwide shows there being slightly more females than males. As for gender-selective abortions, those usually occur in societies where males are valued more than females, so having a male baby is...

polaroidsredwine I agree. There has to be some law about this, no matter if you work for the government or not - not paying for a full month is definitely shady and far from okay. This really needs to be taken up with a lawyer or something. The government needs to abide by the...

First of all, I have to say that I don't mean any kind of offense to any tow headed person on mylot and my little boy is a tow head too. I don't think that blond people are dingy, but I do tend to think of the cliche. So on...

polaroidsredwine Oh no! That's so silly. I can't actually recall the last time I've had a moment that made me come off so dense. My sister, however - up until age 16, she was convinced brown cows made chocolate milk. Even nearly a decade later, after she came home throwing...

I went to mall nearby the office this afternoon to hear mass which I used to do during Wednesday. After the mass, I went to the mall supermarket to buy something. This supermaket used to barricade just like in the bank before the...

polaroidsredwine Oh yeah, that would've made me ridiculously mad, too. Sad to say, she will probably attempt to pull the same stunt again - having one person get on her case about it probably didn't do enough to teach her a lesson on being polite and, you know, following the...

I don't get some men at all. They have so low thinking that they go on passing comments, if a girl is wearing a short dress that means she is inviting a rapist. Or she is a open vault, and anyone can take her advantage. I want to...

polaroidsredwine What a terrible comparison to make. A person's body is not a commodity. It's not a woman's fault that society has sexualized the female body to the point where she needs to actively think about how she should go around dressed. It's not like men have to do...

polaroidsredwine You did the right thing! Those are the sort of people who act as if they're entitled to get what they want all the time and they annoy me endlessly (especially as I've done my share of cashiering and having to tailor to those sorts' needs). Also, good on her...

Whenever I hear the song Wherever you will go by The Calling, it always makes me cry. This song is the last song I played in my guitar and I sang in front of my father. A week before he died, he asked me to sing and play a song...

polaroidsredwine Oh wow, that song is really nostalgic - and certainly a loaded one. I love it, and I completely understand how it brings you to tears, especially since you've attached it to your late father. Well, I have a few songs that bring me to tears, but the most...

polaroidsredwine Music speaks to the soul - or, mostly, the brain, and by speak I mean alters it a little. But I love listening to music to help me improve my mood or, if nothing else, to find something that I can deeply relate to in the situation I'm going through at any...

polaroidsredwine Not every person has the resources (financially, mentally, physically, emotionally) to care for a disabled child. And not everyone in the world wants to have a child.

Well many people are advocating getting rid of guns in the USA. Here's a good point that I have heard. Did prohibition work? Has banning of drugs work? Well, that is about how gun control would work. Why don't we look...

polaroidsredwine The solution isn't to completely take away guns - that would just lead to situations akin to prohibition and making drugs illegal. Limiting access to certain firearms would be better - it wouldn't stop all of the gun violence that occurs, certainly, but the...

polaroidsredwine It's not the penultimate goal of a woman to have a child, and there are mothers out there who really don't have the barest inkling of concern for their children - just because a person has an abortion doesn't mean they don't care at all for life, because it's...

polaroidsredwine Just because someone has an abortion doesn't mean they will go through severe depression after. There are many people out there who don't ever want a child. I agree with you that birth control should be given out, but not only that - people should also be...
