Slewis77 If the dog came after me or my children, I would shoot it. I would not think twice about it. Don't get me wrong I love animals but the well being of my family comes first. If the dog was just wondering around then I would leave the area. I told my children...

Slewis77 It really doesn't matter where you live, there are BAD people all over the world. Owning a handgun is only a preventive measure. It is not a guarantee that you won't get hurt or killed.

cupcakejones @cupcakejones (31) • United States 14 Nov 09

Slewis77 This date is all in the mind. People make this date out to be bad but it does not have to be. If you think positive, positive things will happen. If you think negatively negative things will happen. It's that simple.

Slewis77 Be very careful. Many promises are made to women by men over the web. The person promising the plane most likely has another agenda in mind. Also, if you are questioning his integrity then you do not know him enough to even get on that plane. Be safe and stay...
