Captain, with all the appeals you'd be entitled to, you'd probably outlive us all...and you might even have your Doctorate by the time they decide that keeping you on death row so long is "cruel and unusual" and set you free.

Whoa! Wonder why I never thought of ...

Forget about "cruel and unusual". These scum should be killed in the same way they killed others. Or, throw 'em in a concrete cell all together and let them stay there until they die.

Scr** em.

<t>They are desensitized...it's the "Frog in the Pot Syndrome". Put a frog in a pot of cold water, he's fine. Turn on the flame under the pot and heat the water slowly, the frog doesn't realize he's being exposed to more and more of what will eventually kill him. Then he's boiled to death and doesn ...

Oh my Gawd!!!! You guys have me laughing so hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!:wah: :wah: :wah:

Suddenly, the gravy bubbled

The lips are definitely freaky looking. While we're on the subject, I can't get past the news anchors with so much lip gloss that their lips look as if they might slide off their face any second.

Flying, definitely.

Getting a phone call from my daughter, and finally hearing peace, tranquility, and happiness in her voice.

<t>I was standing in line at the grocery store, looking at a small package of some sort of new cookies they were selling. There was a lady in back of me, and I could just tell that she was depressed about something. She was looking at the few items she had put in her basket, and was figuring up the ...

Yep, many many many years ago.

Ever had a dream in such detail that actually came true the same way you dreamed it?

<t>zeffer, I saw your avatar and had to reply to this Q of the Day...I KNOW I would NEVER spend the night in a haunted house...<br/>

When I was a kid, just the sight of that (Alfred Hitchcock) profile on the telly, and the first two "ta dum"'s of the theme song, had me shrieking and running ...

<t>I just have to add my two cents' worth here. I always pick out the misspelled words in everything I read, be it a sign, a magazine, book, whatever. It really drives me crazy. After receiving a horribly butchered ad in the mail, I corrected each of the errors in red ink and mailed it back to the ...

Martini and Rossi Asti Spumanti, for the bubbly.

Otherwise I like a good Piesporter, and sometimes Merlot.

<t>Oh my God!!! I LOVED "The Hitcher"...as a suspense film it was the BEST I've ever seen! I was literally sitting on the absolute edge of the couch from the moment the movie started until it ended. I have told so many people about this film, but this is the first time I ever found anyone else who ...

Actually, I did hear of this several years ago...seems like maybe 10 years ago??

Anyway, I thought it was macabre, but I forgot all about it until I read your post. I don't know what company does this though. Search the web (what do you look for..."Diamonds from the Dead" ?)

<t>Well, I found out today that the reason that she can't get the parents to commit to a date for dinner is that both of them have sick parents. Keith's (my future son-in-law) paternal grandfather and maternal grandmother are both seriously ill, and his parents are always leaving on short trips to ...

<t>Wow, thanks you all for your input. I really don't think I'm going to call his parents, for the reason that she doesn't want me to, and that's up to her, not me. <br/>

As far as her not trusting me, there were situations which eventually made me realize that I had to go the "tough love ...

<t>My daughter is getting married. She's 22 1/2, her boyfriend is 26. She is getting married in November, and their baby will be 3 months old by then. She told me that they were planning to marry anyway, but now they will also be starting a family. <br/>
<br/>
I can think of a million reasons that ...

You don't know me, I am very new to this site, but let me tell you, I was married to a pedophile. I didn't know it of course when I married him, but unfortunately I found out when he did something to one of my neighbor's little girl. We had a two-year old daughter at the time, I ...

<t>Turning in the direction from which she heard the whispers, she saw tall grass moving in the distance. Merriweather ran up the beach reaching a thick wall of sea grass. Using her arms to weave her way through this living curtain, she reached an opening with a deep pool of blue water surrounded by ...

<t>As her eyes became accustomed to the dim light of the old slave galley, she realized that the ship was moving and she feared she would never see her homeland or her family again. She explored her prison as well as she could in the limited light, and felt the wooden floors and walls for any hint ...
