rick615 @rick615 (413) • United States 16 Jan 07

I'll tell y'all straight up. I am no Barry Bonds fan. I do not believe that anyone that obcessed about their body and body image, would not know what is in 'the cream' or 'the clear'. What a load of crap he tried to...

rick615 What you say is mostly true, but it is also true he never hit that many home runs in a season until he started using the juice (sic). Also, while you may not think it plays a role in Hall of Fame selection, it does matter to the selection committee. Don't...

rick615 The television and movies is one such place. The messages are even more insidious, such as the exploitation of children is "ok" if there is a good reason behind it. Music has its benefits, and it is not all bad.

rick615 @rick615 (413) • United States 19 Jan 07

This was a topic on the radio today. Do people think we need charge more for health insurance for people who smoke? Or are obese? The idea is that they use up more of our helath dollars and raise the cost of health insurance...

rick615 A good point. Would we then charge more for diabetics and those with Lupus? Maybe that is coming down the pike. I think they pick on obesity and smokers because it is considered a "controllable" health risk.

Diapers and Duct Tape

kassdaw @kassdaw (591) • United States 22 May 08

My son is 1 year and half old. He doesn't like to wear diapers but wont sit on a potty chair. My husband recently got the idea to use duct tape on the flaps. This actually worked. Does anyone else do this, or am I the only one?

rick615 What a negative comment. Her rating does not allow her to cut and paste. Are you jealous that she took the time to be so eloquent? I don't think your comment really adds to the discussion at all.

What's your opinion of women who prey on married men?

HeavenUnaware @HeavenUnaware (1757) • United States 25 Jan 07
