on a happier note
Posted: Mar 28, 2016
I gained almost 40 pounds in the 19 years I have been working from home. Last summer I decided to do something about it. Took me til March, but I lost 30 pounds. I basically started eating a lot more veggies, less meat, and totally cut out my Double Stuff Oreos/chips/Hershey's Kisses which were my passion. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, don't get me wrong, I just needed to share my news with someone. TIA

[ In Reply To ..]Keep up the good work. I just started a diet and weight loss routine myself using the 21-day fix and PiYo. I'm also doing a lot of walking. I've lost about 7 pounds so far. Want to be down 30 total by the time I got to Hawaii for my 25th wedding anniversary in October.

[ In Reply To ..]I am where you were last summer. I really need to take off the weight I have put on due to extreme prolonged stress. You have inspired me to do better. Thank you for letting us know, and congrats on a terrific job!

On A More Serious NoteJul 31, 2016
To those of you who favor Trump and are newspaper subscribers, please look and see if George Will's column is in today's paper. I don't think his conservative credentials can be questioned. He is asking what DT's connections are to Putin and whether DT has business interests in Russia. The only way we will know this is by DT releasing his personal and business tax records. This is very important and even Trump supporters should be interested in getting ...
A Note From Nov 13, 2013
What we said was; If you think I was being honest with you about health care, you're naive, I only said that you could keep your health care and your doctor to sucker you into voting for me.... PERIOD. I am sorry you are now stuck in this circumstance, but it was more important to get your vote than it was to actually care about your health coverage. Soon you too can go to health care .gov and give your personal data to a hacker or to some unscreened employee who has previously been in pris ...
Note To AllMay 02, 2015
If someone writes abiout politicians (no matter what party) and are criticizing politicians and issues, policies, etc it stays. Period! Quit reporting posts because you don't like what people with opposing views of yours write. When people post about what republican or democrats are doing they are obviously not talking about posters here. So to make it simple...if you comment or ridicule other posters on this board your post will be gone, if you talk about politicians, policie ...
A Note About DT From A Friend In NYSep 19, 2016
we have something called star..a reduction on property tax, (not a lot..but I'm not proud.)there is an income limit..$500,000...and then there is no eligibility! He was granted star twice in 2014( I think that may have been the year)..he said it was a clerical error...pure fantasy! He had to have applied for it, and then the city checks out the application, and then, in this case..he was granted the star credit! He had to show less than $500,000 income!! ...
Kind NoteJan 13, 2013
Hi all- I'm not wanting to start a big fight here, so that's not my purpose. I just want to address an issue that many people share. And would like thoughts on both sides. It's perfume (not including scented body sprays) users who use too much. This can easily happen to the wearer, particularly if you wear the same perfume every day. Your nose gets used to it, so you might be using more than you initially did and not even realize it. (Kind of like someone who smokes d ...
Note To ModeratorOct 23, 2014
If posters continue to call us Tbag, Tpub or whatever I say you allow us to call them Communitsts and Nazi's (at least that is more accurate). Many people are taking great joy in insulting conservatives by calling them Tbags, Tpubs or referring to conservatives as teabaggers (then acting innocent as if they didn't know this was insulting). This is not true. Not all conservatives belong to the tea party. They need to get it correct too. If they want to refer to ...

If you are disgusted by the vile filth and disrespect from the left, but still want your voice heard and still want to read opinions of others and have rational discussions, there are other sites for such. I, for one, will be leaving this forum permanently. If you are not aware of another site, you may email me for information, but I fully understand if you don't. (I probably wouldn't email anyone anonymously on this site.) Bottom Line: Don't give up your beliefs and don ...

From E. J. Dionne in the Washington Post: "I was talking with an old friend who is with one of the nonpartisan polling outfits (and who also happens to be a very good and fair-minded pollster). We were discussing the large shifts in some of the polls on the presidential election and the feedback he receives whenever he puts out new numbers that make one side or the other unhappy. He offered an observation so priceless that it needs to be widely shared. 'When you give conservatives bad news ...
On Another Note, Biden And McConnell's Plan Dec 31, 2012
This was before Obama's speech. BTW, according to Sen. Corker, Obama wants to pay for the sequester cuts (and have them taken out of this new legislation) with the tax increase revenue and not reduce spending cuts already agreed to and not the deficit. Again, Obama doesn't know how to add or subtract. Taking in $80 billion and spending $60 billion does not give $80 billion towards spending reduction on the debt. This story has been updated. Vice President Biden and Senate Minor ...

on that word, as if we are not all entitled to draw when needed from the programs WE pay into that we set up specifically for US. Entitled and entitlement are not sneer words. They mean we paid for it and it's ours. But he's sneering anyway. Note that most safety net programs were created to keep people in temporary trouble from falling into a hole they can never climb out of. Getting sick. Losing a job.
