Sooooo....if I were to get a job in a department store ....and thanks to my talent I was able to prevent losses in the tune of $100,000 dollars.... would it then be ok for me to start taking office supplies and discretionary spending money for my own personal use...trips to the spa...lunches...whatever. I mean, it is money that *I* am allowed to use...to my discretion.... and I *did* save the company thousands of dollars.... so isn't it my right?

Phred... that is not true... EIC and Child Tax Credits...both give a return when none was paid. BUT, they are for the working poor...and *I* don't have a problem with them.... I'm just sayin'...you ARE incorrect here....sorry. :D -

Well, take me out behind the woodshed.

Most of my family is of the same political persuasion as I am... but for those that are not.... I have found it is best to just refrain. Of course, if they WERE to try and argue it with me I would probably have to resort to plugging my ears and screaming nahanahnahanahanhanhanahana :lol: ETA...I don't have a blog... so I'm safe! LOL -

Here in WA we pay over 8.6% sales tax....and that is just in state taxes...how much more would you think we should pay...because, I gotta tell you...I think the idea of sales tax, to replace income tax, sounds INSANE! It would have to be around 30-40% to even come close!:confused: -

Then our society would be more balanced. And I don't know if I agree that it's penalizing the successful... for a couple of reasons...a) I don't actually consider inherited fortune a matter of success.... and b) I think the folks that can afford to... have an obligation to society to pay more than those who cannot. But, then, I'm on the same point in the socio-economic-political scale as Ghandi.:lol: -
Honey, when did you start posting on my board??? Oh, wait...you aren't my husband!?! :lol:

I am not talking about ALL the time.... but in cases where they made a decision KNOWING the risks of that decision.... like during a mandatory evacuation... or climbing a mountain.... or any number of other scenarios that my sleep deprived brain cannot think of at the moment...:glare: In THOSE cases....the rescue of those people...while not only being EXTREMELY dangerous for the rescuers... is also VERY expensive. Who should have to pay for that?

I read an article in People about the family...and it showed the tattoo the Mom and some of the other family members got in remembrance of Maria... it was a picture she had started to draw the morning of her death... it was very sweet... such a tragic loss... -

blood shot eyes.... nope glassy far away look.... nope goofy grin..... nope I think he is safe.:D -
If it is any consolation....even when I am completely even keel hormonally.... most of what Susan Sarandon says (other than when she is playing a part)....makes me want to smack her.... LOL She can just be soooo absurd! And I am not PMSing....and I think kicking the principal sounds completely justified! :tongue_smilie: And chocolate is good...it is your friend...have some for me!! :D

I had to look up hurricane names lol.... in case anyone else wants to look it up... http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/retirednames.shtml I have a Lili...and, um...I have to say, Hurricane Lili was appropriately named...:lol: -
CONGRATS DORAN!!! I have to tell you though....I'm a pretty laid back person...and I am definitely not one that gets worked up about stuff....(I think that some think I am high strung due to my posting style, LOL, so I wanted to clarify....) so, yeah, totally a, 'take it in stride' kinda gal..... but we are planning on buying a house in the late fall, early winter....and the very thought of it gives me little anxiety attacks....LOL....buying a house is just sooooooo freaking stressful! So, buying a house as quickly as ya'll are....would send me screaming to the nearest dark corner....where I would be found curled up in the fetal position and rocking back and forth while mumbling incoheritantly....:lol: How's that for a mental image....:tongue_smilie:

Powerful message from a soldier
nakitty replied to Sharon in SC's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I'm fairly certain that it is true....however, upon ACTUALLY viewing the video...I see that he is (allegedly) a veteran....and not likely active duty considering he has lost a leg.... -
Powerful message from a soldier
nakitty replied to Sharon in SC's topic in General Education Discussion Board
wait a sec....military spouses....Mrs. Mungo....verify this for me....but I was under the impression that active military personnel are not permitted to back a political candidate... so that does give me pause here.... KWIM?:confused: -
Am I understanding Greek gods correctly?
nakitty replied to rwalizer's topic in General Education Discussion Board
FTR, I was not bashing anyones religion....I have read the old testament....and that is exactly how I see the God represented there....I am not the only person to have stated this...it is a commonly stated opinion...even by many Christians... -
Well....tea is good for you...you know...anti-oxidants and all...:tongue_smilie: It is good for your physical AND emotional well being....so even when you really can't even stand the thought of tea....you should still have some anyhow. And *USUALLY* once you take the first sip or two....you start to remember that you do actually like tea... sometimes you find that you forgot just how much you love tea! :lol:
