  1. In fact, Jenamarie, when immigration this last year went into a few meat packing plants to round up illegal aliens the ones with children at home were allowed to go home to them. I think JD might be on to something. I would be totally flipping out if I got to hold my baby for only a few hours and then the rest of the kids taken. What the children must be going through!
  2. And I said it 5 times, too! Believe me, I wish I could have said 'tropical weather pattern' instead
  3. Here too, I started thinking about how to make a raft out of potatoes
  4. And I totally missed what the OP noticed when I watched it in April lol. It's worth repeating
  5. No kidding, keep them together if the mom's in danger. This really sent up a red flag for me because the authorities were saying nothing bad about the mom. No 'squalid living conditions' no 'drug abuse', nada. I really see no purpose for keeping the family apart, unless it is a threat to make the mom cooperate with some investigation.
  6. here I'm glad Pres. Monson spoke out about anger.
  7. Baby snatch victim loses kids to state custody - Yahoo! News Unbelievable. Horrible. Basically, a 'what on earth are these people thinking' moment. If I were that mom I would be on every single news show that would have me. I would talk to every reporter on the face of the planet. The authorities are not saying why they took the kids, and we all know by now that if there is a plausible enough reason to blame anyone at all, especially the parents, those people almost always try the case in the court of public opinion first.
  8. It snowed last night!! It was rainy most of the night (naturally my window was down). I went to my last break at about 5:15 am and that's when I saw the big beautiful flakes. About 2 hrs later I learned my car tires are not exactly great but I managed to get home. Funny how much better the snow looks if you don't have to go to work for 12 hours Did it snow anywhere else?
  9. God, being God, knows full well how to build a perpetual-motion machine
  10. Omgosh this is terrible!! I am so sorry you are in this horrible position. I'm guessing your mom does not know, does she? I don't blame you for trying to protect her. I know you are not the one who committed the sin, but you are seriously affected by it so I suggest talking to your bishop pronto. This should not be your responsibility, you should have never been put in this situation, and I don't think this will turn out in any shape good unless you have wise counsel. Ohhh give your mom an extra long hug today. She deserves one. So do you.
  11. She was the one they sent first. Then President Obama. As it stated here GOP Boss Slams Obama's Olympic Trip To Copenhagen - cbs2chicago.com Why should she have to foot the bill because someone changed their mind? Not her fault lol. BTW, everyone's favorite LDS almost-president said this I don't see any at fault. Plans change. I haven't seen anyone draw a timeline on when Mrs. Obama got there compared to the president.
  12. Talisyn is a derivative of a nickname of my favorite character, Jamethiel, of the God Stalk books. I always felt a special affinity toward her, especially when she tries to do what's right but somehow ends up burning down cities. It's also the name of my character in FFXI. I picked it instead of Jamethiel because I can never remember how to spell it
  13. BTW, here's why Mrs. Obama went to Copenhagen GOP Boss Slams Obama's Olympic Trip To Copenhagen - cbs2chicago.com Sorry JAG, I thought more people would look at the link if the headline was posted
  14. It's called cleaning out the shallow end of the gene pool, Mahone
  15. Umm you're the one who mentioned cap-and-trade. You can't make a hit like that and then run off saying 'we better be careful!' Anyways, it's probably better this way. Has any city that's hosted the Olympics, summer or winter, made a profit?
  16. The office of the president gets around $200,000 a year. I think Mrs. Obama probably could afford the ticket, John Doe.
  17. So what does that say for the kinds of 'incentives' Brazil was able to offer compared to Chicago? After the SLC Olympics I look to any city winning as kind've suspect.
  18. What a good son!
  19. What we should do is just not trade with companies that violate basic human rights (like slave and child labor). Take away favorite trading status. Take a stand. Let's look at the economy like yu-gi-oh or pokemon cards. You have a set amount of points you can use. Right now over 50% of these points are going to 2% of your cards while the other 50% is used by 98% of the rest of the cards. I'm not saying it's an issue of fairness. What I'm trying to say is more of your cards would have greater power if the points were more evenly spread out.
  20. I'm sorry. It's impressive but it looks like it was made by termites. Maybe you have to be there?
  21. But that would involve thinking...
  22. Happy future Birthday I didn't feel like an actual adult until I turned 30, and I feel a deep sense of my own power in the world, which is an awesome feeling indeed. I wouldn't trade anything to be younger. But I understand that is not common and wish you luck with coming to terms with your mortality
  23. The Boise temple is a reminder that what goes on in the temple is more important than what's on the outside My family was sealed in the Salt Lake temple, and it will always be my favorite because of that. But wowowow the San Diego temple is totally unearthly.
  24. Indeed, I can see your scenario. Scientists have recently discovered the brain centers for impulse control do not fully mature until in the 20s, I believe. But I would like to point out that 13 yr old girls mimic what they see around them. They are so precious! All children that age are. I wish people could see just how much God loves His children, especially the young ones. I fear it will take a lot more than a petition from Hollywood's 'elite' to get this pedo off from real justice.
