Couple Arrested for not Paying Tip!

cowgirl2701 @cowgirl2701 (2079) • United States 19 Nov 09

I was a waitress for years and if you give bad service you DO NOT get a TIP! I can not believe they had this couple arrested. Yes I understand that the restaurant has a policy to charge a tip for parties of 6 or more. The owner...

qmeyers I have always personally felt that tipping was for when the waiter/waitress did more than their duty. I have never felt obligated to leave one and when the service is poor I don't even think about putting any change on the table.

New Wizard of Oz????

RhodaK @RhodaK (177) • United States 8 Nov 09

How true are the rumors I have heard that they are going to be making a new "Wizard of Oz."? I can't believe it. There is no way that they can redo the original. Let me know what, if anything, you have heard.

qmeyers There is already an alternate version of the Wizard of Oz called The Wiz. It came out in 1974 I believe. Starred Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Richard Pryor was also a part of the cast.

Beauty Pageants

onlinemoneyjourney @onlinemoneyjourney (235) • Australia 18 Nov 09

This is a huge market, specifically in the US, where young girls are subjected to beauty pageants. They look like miniature dolls all dressed up, make-up and hair perfect, strutting their stuff on the stage. However, behind every...

qmeyers I think that it's strange that they are called beauty pageants and not one of them highlight the little girls' inner or natural beauty without makeup and the expensive outfits. They should rename them Little Girls Looking Grown Pageants because they judge the...

qmeyers Sometimes you have to be real. Niceness doesn't always work. When people know what you will and will not take, they stop pushing your buttons.

celestialbloom @celestialbloom (204) • United States 19 Nov 09

Call me a Scrooge, but I hate the holiday season. Every year I dread its start during the third week of November and look forward to February 15th, when it's finally finished. When I was very little, I loved all of the...

qmeyers I agree with you. The holidays irritate me to no end.. Family get togethers that are too loud, too noisy, too many people, too many arguments, too many children fighting and fussing. My children enjoy the holidays and all of the chaos when we get together with...

qmeyers Just take it as a life lesson learned. The next time you get involved with a guy you will know to find out the agreement/understanding that applies to both parties before taking such drastic steps.

What do you do with your old books?

hmkoct5 @hmkoct5 (2065) • United States 18 Nov 09

If your child made a promise, would you force them to keep it?

mommyboo @mommyboo (13174) • United States 17 Nov 09

Let's open this up further and say child, spouse, significant other, parent(s), friends, etc. If someone promises you something, do you trust and believe they will keep their word? If something occurs that compromises this,...

qmeyers I definitely agree with you making him honor his word. That is the only way that children understand that they should do what they say they are going to do and if they aren't sure they want to do something then they should keep quiet. I believe that 99% of...

Then Why Shouldn't We Say "Sweetie" to Women or "Boy" to Black people?

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 16 Nov 09

Over the last couple of decades there has been a concerted effort to change the way we do things in our society. There has been the meaningless "Political Correctness" that made a power play out of common courtesy, but there was...

itsmauricecassidy @itsmauricecassidy (298) 5 Nov 09

qmeyers The stereotype that I dislike is that you are labeled a "militant" if you choose to wear your hair in a natural hairstyle. Why can my hair not be a creative extension of who I am???
