I'd like you all to just make a list of several things that you think of when you think of the Republican party. It doesn't matter if you're a liberal, independent, libertarian, or republican. Just make a list. I have a reason for asking for your "lists" of things you identify the Republican...

Early last summer I sold three horses to a person in Ohio. Another miniature horse breeder. She promised to keep in touch and keep me up-to-date on how the horses are doing, and I've gotten nothing! After they were delivered I received two emails and one pic was attached. She said she was very...

Sunny, I posted the pic of me swimming with the dolphin in your original thread. Didn't know if you'd seen it or not.

There is a very interesting article, written about Wisconsin, which discusses the decline of manufacturing and business and private enterprise and the current statistics that no longer are private companies the largest employers in the state, but now the government is the largest employer in the...

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I haven't been here much at all this month. I came down to my house in Florida on Nov. 3 and am still down here. I have a very *iffy* internet connection here. It's a wireless connection, but I have no idea where it's coming from. But I have a very hard time...

I have always registered my horses permanently with AMHA at five years, and all the certificates of the younger horses I have indicate they expire when the horse is five years old. However, I was just on the AMHA site's Forms on Line and in looking at the PDF file in which you can upload your...

I don't unload my personal problems on the internet, but at this point, I guess I just need a few shoulders to cry on. Things are piling up and maybe it will just be a little cathartic to unload. First... my husband's brother, Mike, is 64 years old, and in January he was diagnosed with an...

I don't know what to do about this and would like advice and input! My mom died two years ago and my dad is 86, recovering from a broken hip, blind, and heavy with dementia. He was released from the rehab center on Saturday and went back to his Assisted Living apartment, but the next day he fell...

We all know that skunks stink and no one cares for that odor at all, but are there other smelly things you can't stand? For me, there are four standouts: 1. Patchouli or musk cologne. I can't stand the smell of that stuff. Smells like musty laundry! One day we were at a restaurant and two...

So they are maybe going to "go under." When over 80% of the operating costs of an enterprise go simply to pay employee's wages, is it any wonder? I don't mean to upset anyone here who happens to work for the postal service, but as a taxpayer I just see red when I consider the salaries these...

I have been canning salsa for years, but I have never made green salsa with green tomatoes. How does that stuff taste? The reason I ask is that I have a ton of green tomatoes that just aren't going to ripen and I hate to waste them and thought maybe I should do a few canner loads. Also, does...

Mine is a wall oven that is 33 years old. It has never needed a repair, and looks really great! Of course, I'm not really a person who spends a lot of time cooking, so maybe that's help preserve it! Haha! It's still got the old dials on it, and to set the timer I have to turn a dial, which only...

I bought a Kindle 3G wireless ereader earlier this summer, and I also bought a clip on light for it, made by Belkin, and I love the light! But, I need a cover, and saw the lighted covers at Amazon. Since I already have a neat light, that I can adjust really well to hit the whole page, do I need...

We finally got the law passed in Wisconsin to allow to carry a concealed weapon! Along with Illinois, we were the only two states without that right! Of course my husband and I both want to get licensed, but we have to go to a "training" course. Doesn't matter that we've both been hunters for...

I love it really cool when I'm sleeping, and the last several nights have been in the 60's, which I would love! But I just can't open those windows! Every time I try leaving the bedroom windows open the racket from the insects keeps me awake. But even worse are the whippoorwills! All night long...

I need bifocals but the only time I wear them is when I'm driving, reading, writing, or doing things when I need clear vision up close, because they are a pain to wear. I never wear my glasses outside because I'm always sweating from work and the sweat runs all over the lenses. So, every time I...

Did you ever notice how August whines? There is the constant hum and buzz of insects in the trees that you don't hear in quite the same way the rest of the year. It almost sounds like telephone wires are vibrating at a high speed. May hums. A merry hum, a happy hum. Gentle breezes and spring...

Perry's handlers are proclaiming how much job growth there was in Texas under his governorship, but what they don't tell us is that most of those jobs are government jobs and have to do with the defense industry. These were not jobs largely created in the private sector. Also, if you are happy...

If I were to transport a horse that I sold, what should I charge the purchaser per mile? And, would I only charge per loaded mile? (I would assume so). I would only be making a trip of maybe four or five hours.

What the heck is going on? Is it due to getting older??? My eyebrows are disappearing! I KNOW I used to have eyebrows! I never needed eyebrow pencil before.... yet now when I look in the mirror I see hardly any eyebrow hairs. I had to go out and buy an eyebrow pencil today, and I've never used...
