Just received a great gift that I had no idea

My son, who is in his mid 20s, is assistant coach for the high school girls' soccer team. The young lady, who is team captain, has injured her ACL severely and probably won't be playing anymore but shows up for every game of course. They all are getting her a little inexpensive "get well" to give her tonight. My son has no earthly idea what to get her and frankly, neither do I. He wants to keep the gift very generic, so as to not let the young lady g ...

All she wants are gift cards and money, but I would like to have a small gift for her to actually open. Any ideas what a 13-year-old might like (or tolerate?) ...

These children range in ages from newborn to 10. Money is tight, but I always try to send them something just for them. But as time has passed their numbers have increased. How much is too little? I was thinking in the range of 15-20? Any input - I don't want to be too cheap - or should I just send a "family giftcard" for all? These children are two for each family I usually send to. ...

take over the sink area, don aprons, "wash" a pot while photos are shot, then split. I'd say you can't make this stuff up, but of course SNL could--if it wasn't real. Who'd get to play the ticked-off charity director and who the bumfuzzled volunteers, I wonder?But, really, why on earth did Ryan's campaign do this? It was an unannounced stop. Just a stray streak of brilliance that wowed them all temporarily? (Maybe similar to what became Obama's first-debate strateg ...

Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money. How come we never hear about welfare running out of money? What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't. Think about it..... I have no idea who said this, but it's apparently from "Free Republic." ...

Okay, I get ads all the time in email. No big deal, just delete them out, but this one REALLY has me ticked off. It's for "Dragon Naturally Speaking". It has a button to opt out, but I'm tempted to send an email to the person who provided their email address and tell him exactly what I think of their program. Their program just cost me my job. And their twisting of words (maybe not twisting, but in my mind it is) to make it sound like it's a great program. ...

Too many links to copy. Don't believe the MSM and especially Daily Kos. They're mostly mindless idiots. The only black Republican senator was only invited to 'attend', not to speak. Kind of a slap in the face, don't you think? Oh, and who was that speaker who brought up Trayvon? That was really, really bad. Why didn't any of them address the issues that MLK would have? With it being a political (liberals only) event, i ...

President Obama: Replace Rahm with Me ...an open letter from Michael Moore Friday, March 5th, 2010 Dear President Obama, I understand you may be looking to replace Rahm Emanuel as your chief of staff. I would like to humbly offer myself, yours truly, as his replacement. I will come to D.C. and clean up the mess that's been created around you. I will work for $1 a year. I will help the Dems on Capitol Hill find their spines and I will teach them how to nonviolently beat the Republicans ...

Five members of a Pakistani family under criminal investigation for allegedly misusing their positions as computer administrators for dozens of Democrats in the House of Representatives were paid at least $4 million from July 2009 to the present, The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group has learned. Evidence suggests some of the dozens of House Democrats — many of whom serve on the intelligence, homeland security and foreign affairs committees — who employed the suspects w ...

My refugee husband, who is now a small business owner and hefty taxpayer, also took advantage of this program in the early 80s while migrating from Iran (to escape imminent persecution for anti-regime political activities) via Germany, then Iowa, under the resettlement program. He was on the dole for hostel housing, food, medical care and pocket money for around 16 months (9 months in Germany, and another 7 months in Iowa) while the bureacratic red tape ran its course and he became establi ...

Hillary Clinton's recently released emails includes a memo sent by David Brock titled, "Memo on Impeaching Clarence Thomas." The purpose of the document might suggest Clinton, or at least those closest to her and in her circle, are interested in impeaching Justice Thomas. The document contains information from Brock about his book, The Real Anita Hill, and other similar points on Justice Thomas's personal life. The document contains details of Brock himself potentially inti ...

I suspect this was originally posted here last week, but until the TDS dies down from the Soros/Media Matters/David Brock acolytes/employees/trolls here, I'm going to post about this topic (and link some updated info below about an active suit being argued against Wasserman). RIGHT on our soil we can plainly see a corrupt political operative engaged in nefarious activities (including the transfer of significant sums of taxpayer monies) with foreign nationals that the left-wing moonbat ...

This is what the unions are up to lately. I think it's ridiculous. This is a free country and they are threatening to boycott businesses that do not put their signs in the store supporting the union. They are out of control. So now they apologize....is that supposed to make everyone feel better?

What do you give to someone as a going-away gift that you've only known for five months? She's a very nice person. We didn't spend a whole lot of time together, mostly just at school functions, and a couple of times outside of that, for coffee, but with a group, not just her and me. Is it even appropriate that I get her a little something? I've been invited to a little going-away luncheon for her tomorrow and I don't have any idea. Flowers m ...

My daughters are grown, mid-20s and married. I have obtained the few things that they put on their lists but I am looking for some ideas for some "extras," unexpected things. Anyone have some good ideas? Thanks so much!!! ...

I got this from another board and it was actually funny to read. When we got married 18 years ago we got a plunger from my mom's friend thou she did get us another gift also that one was just funny. We got margaritia glasses and neither us were old enough to drink either. I used those for dessert glasses for a bit but ended up over time breaking them. I can't think of any really really bad gifts but those 2 stick out in my mind for some reason. So what has been yours? ...

Dear Diary, For my birthday this year, my husband purchased for me a week of personal training at the local health club. Although I am still in great shape since being a high school football cheerleader 43 years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try. I called the club and made my reservations with a personal trainer named Christo, who identified himself as a 26-year-old aerobics instructor and model for athletic clothing and swim wear. Friends seemed plea ...

Need help, don't want to give cold cash for college grad. It seems cards like AMEX, etc. have hidden fees when used. Also, what do you consider appropriate for a BS degree? Have several others coming up after this one and expect each higher degree should be a little more than the high school or junior college. Kind of stumped here, lots of different levels of graduation coming at once in the next 3-4 years. Just want to be fair. Thanks. ...

I had ordered 2 customized luggage tags from Zazzle.com. The printed image is in between 2 pieces of acrylic. Unfortunately, they mixed up the addresses on the backs of 2 of them and they have not gotten back to me yet. If I do not hear from them Monday, I will be contacting my credit card company about the charges. What I am curious about is how to go about separating the acrylic, switching out the wrong information and then getting it to adhere together again. Does any ...

In December, my significant other (BF sounds so young) and I will have been together 10 years. We are both 51 and basically get anything we want when we want it. He is not the type to wear jewelry except his college ring and a watch (which I got him 5 years ago) and he has anything and everything for his favorite college team. I was thinking about doing a collage of pictures from the trips we have taken in our 10 years together in a nice picture frame, but not sure. He is ...

ONE GREAT IDEA!!! Christmas & Chanukah 2011 -- Birth of a New TraditionAs the holidays approach, the giant Asian factories are kicking into high gear to provide Americans with monstrous piles of cheaply produced goods -- merchandise that has been produced at the expense of American labor. This year will be different. This year Americans will give the gift of genuine concern for other Americans. There is no longer an excuse that, at giftgiving time, nothing can be found that is produced by A ...

So-- I'm in the dentist's chair all afternoon, having $2000 worth of work done. At the end, he asks me what kind of milkshake I would like from the restaurant chain down the street. I say no thanks. He says, Please, my treat, I insist! How could anyone say no! So I say vanilla. And he sends his assistant, who brings me back a giant chocolate milkshake. Which is the last thing I feel like eating, but I take it, to be polite. And give it to a family member. Who wants something frozen tou ...

My son has been volunteering for a charitable organization and all he really wants for Christmas is to have the money which would be spent on him donated to the organization. I am happy to do that, but I would like to have a way to present the donation to him as a gift so he will have something to open along with everyone else. Does anyone have any unique ideas of gifting such a thing? Thanks in advance! ...
