What a horrible time you went through in you mind til you knew he was home and safe. I would not have liked to be in your shoes. I have noone in the war, and am glad. I sympathize with you and how you feel though. I feel the same way, war is useless and as for weapons of mass destruction? I hardly believe it yet. War is a mess and a disgrace in my mind. I yourn for peace and soon.

We are at the mercy of the "Ruling Class", of which, Walmart with its billions is a player. It sort of reminds one of the almighty industrialists at the turn of the twentieth century. Those good ole boys could actually have a troublesome employee "eliminated", especially a union organizer. However, Walmart is only one of thousands that insist we remain mere throwaways; evidence of this may be seen at our Southern border every night and in virtually every city across the country.

And this is the funnest time of year to be in Bullhead City too (I was there two weeks ago). I've had an ongoing dislike of WalMart (low prices because they screw everybody, from the seven year old kid who is tied to a loom in Asia all the way to the cashier who rings you up.) I've been boycotting them for several years just on prinicple (I know people who shop there by absolute necessity because they are very poor and can't afford much else-- but we aren't that poor-- at least not yet.) With your permission (my email is no_draft at yahoo dot com) I'd like to write another WalMart post using your situation as an example. (blog posts I've written on WalMart: http://tiodt.blogspot.com/2006/10/fines-just-another-way-to-do-business.html http://tiodt.blogspot.com/2006/07/attorney-general-sues-wal-mart-for.html http://tiodt.blogspot.com/2006/04/wal-mart-hiring-ethics-director.html http://tiodt.blogspot.com/2006/01/always-low-prices-low-standards.html Thank you in advance.

Thank heavens your son is o.k, and yes Ms. Smith is a bozo for not realizing America is free so we can each have our 'own opinions'. To think that we don't have a right to our own opinions is to sadly join all the other 'fanatics' in the world. I respect you for bravely sharing yours...

oh boo hoo, how selfish of you. your son did not have to enlist. There are many proud soldiers there. Afghanistan is a free nation where women now have rights and people can rule themselves, rather than by a hateful Taliban. lead our kids to slaughter. who writes your trite trash? i voted for bush and am proud of it. your facts are distorted and you sound like a mind numb leftist. fine, ahte the president, yeah clinton was sure betetr. how many women in his party accsued him of rape? didnt he kill innocent people in africa to cover up monika news? didnt he burn kids at waco to a crisp? like another writer on authors den said I don't beat around theBush, I vote for them.

It's amazing how simple advertisers make connecting sound! When I went back to college, I took a couple online classes thinking...wow this is going to be simple! Being hardware illiterate my easy English class quickly turned into computer repair 101! I too replaced my hard drive...got a new connection and actually taught myself in that first semester, how to repair my pc. Now I have 2 semesters left at a local community college and I'll have a degree in Computer Information Systems. All the information I've been taught is outdated, yet the web if used properly and with patience offers more than my teachers ever could!

I have seen many conflicts in my lifetime. Hungary, Ireland, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam to name a few. I know the fear and the anger. The pain of losing a loved one. Whereas the current US administration has not learned from Vietnam, That ideals cannot win against ideology. Let not the public forget the fate of the Asian Veteran, where they blamed the soldier instead of the Politician, this time we should give all of our support to the fighting men and women who have answered their country's call, that they shall never know the isolation experienced by other Veterans. I stretch my hand out to all who suffer as you do and pray for peace. Robin

Rape:: POPE : In God's Name - Catholic Priests Frock Up & Rape Our Children (Article) - 4/4/2009 2:28:04 PM
Write on!!! Such strong articles on truth should be posted like these! In our country priests have fathered children among young girls and have even kept concubines in apartments, I know - he lived with her next door to us! Shameless gall. The victims are innocent youth serving as sacristan and church cleaners, sad but true. One priest got stabbed to death by his male partner after the youth got so p....d off by his advances. Then they say mass like nothing's wrong.(yuk!) Cynthia

Medicare Be Aware!!! President Obama Help (Article) - 4/4/2009 2:21:39 PM
Wow. You got that right on target. In our country we lost everything. After years of paying Medicare, it was abolished and renamed Philhealth (for which we need to pay again, starting all over) at almost 60, can't pay no more. So we have zero care. You tell it like it is and write on!!! Get back those payments you made. Cynthia

Lexus SC300 - # 1 Computerized Death Trap UPDATE: JUNE 2005 (Article) - 8/10/2008 4:07:16 PM
You, my lady, are horribly mistaken and wildly idiotic. I have owned two of these cars so far and have never had intentional failure from Lexus parts. Both have almost reached 200,000 miles. These cars are equipped with many different ECUs, and the lighter ECU is not connected to the engine ECU by any means; so this leaves only your engine ECU going bad, not a "built in obsolescence" as you put it. These things just go bad over time as any part on a car. It may have been other parts of your car as well, such as a bad alternator, battery, cap/rotors, etc. So before you start ranting and raving, do some research and learn a little about your car before you drive it. You may have learned that the check engine light was on because the engine was not running and the key was in the "on" position, which it always is and that starting the car with that will not "blow up" the car.

My friend and author Bonnie May lives in Colorado, and has been the casinos when she travels. Her husband loves them. I like our new casino that opend here in PA. iT IS CALLED LITTLE HOLLYWOOD> wENT to it 8 times but didn't spend much or win much. My daughter Kathy won $200.00 her first time there. I used to go to Atlantic City but finances at this point don't allow going there often. I do love to see the ocean and find peace and forget my worries there though.

Lexus SC300 - # 1 Computerized Death Trap UPDATE: JUNE 2005 (Article) - 11/13/2007 7:00:13 AM
I am the CEO for one of the largest specialist Lexus repairer in Australia and worked for Lexus automotive in Japan for 11 years. I know for a definite fact that no such 'obsolete function' is inbuilt in any Lexus vehicle. No such technology exists. I don't know who you spoke to at Tampa Lexus or what they actually told you, but it is false. A vehicle with 110,000 miles on it is bound to present a fault, yours just happened to be a large one and a Lexus is never an cheap car to fix, full stop. Quality parts will equal expensive repair, it happens. There's no conspiracy and ECU (the brain as you put it) is not the least common problem with technology that was at the time, quite experimental. You put it as you saw it, but unfortunately this is incorrect.

Michael Jackson - Good Bye STAR (Article) - 4/27/2007 2:05:34 PM
Michael Jackson's so called eccentricities are the guise of a pedophile.If he had acted normal, as a normal forty year old man, we would have been known him for what he was years ago when he was first called to task for sleeping with a little boy. Every thing the "poor Baby" has done to make us believe he is searching for a childhood lost is just a pedophile's deception. He should be in prison, along with Robert Blake and OJ Simpson.

Hey, let's not stop with Catholic priests... let's get ALL the evangelical loonies who are raping our TVs, as well; if we're going to make blanket judgments of all potential paedopholies, make sure we don't overlook male school teachers, scout masters, brass band conductors, sports coaches, summer camp leaders ... fathers, grandfathers, uncles ...ANYONE but poor innocent (and filthy rich) little Michael Jackson.

Steroids and Sports (Article) - 4/29/2006 1:38:16 PM
It is sad that athletes think they have to use this drug to be good. I am not a "sports person" but I have gone through steroid injections given to be by a physician. I am not a violent person,,but I wish I could do to him, what doctors have done to me,,instead of "fixing" what is wrong with me by the means of surgery, they injected me with this drug, that should NOT BE ALLOWED. I hope I never have to go thru that again, and when I hear of someone going through the injections, i just want to grab and hide them,,NO don't do this,,,what gets everyone is down on drinking,,well drinking does not make you smeel like something that just came out of a grave, it does not make you grow hair, like were sheep to be sheared, it does not make you pick fights with someone that you love just because you feel a rage moment coming on,,,it's horrible and I wished we could all pull together to make this drug totally disappear,,,there is no good coming from steroids, and just think the money, that these doctors collected from me, for making me into a monster for three years, they could have given me my surgery and I would be able to take better care of my granddaughters, but instead I am still battling the pain that they said these steroid injections would do,,doctors do lie,,I am living proof,,this was a great article,,I am glad that I came across it,,,keeping passing on the knowledge, maybe some day, someone will listen and make the right choice,,,clea

Child Molester :What's a Victim of Catholic Molestation to Do (Poetry) - 7/11/2009 12:37:33 AM
Dear Karen, Your writing struck an emotional chord---my brother was abused by a priest... and I was fortunate to help him uncover the ugly mess. The fundamental irony was the whole legal and civil process---the very legal system of checks and balances that serves to protect the innocent, woefully does not---almost like a proverb. We may forgive, but forgetting is a nightmare. Aloha, Myles Saulibio Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

God Bless America and OBAMA (Poetry) - 1/31/2009 1:00:43 AM
I would say: When any president respects and obeys the Constiution, he will demand the same respect from Congress, and then a legal government will deliver what a Nation must have. This is not a THEOCRATIC NATION, it is a Republic, and its HOLY BOOK is THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. May we all respect the Constitution of USA, and see to it that every offficer of government and Congress do the same or be REMOVED. I thank You for this magnificent writing.

What is going on AMERICA? DePReSSioN (Poetry) - 11/13/2008 10:11:29 AM
Yes, it is difficult to keep an open mind when we are being shot at with unverified untruths in an attempt to influence minds--after all, where is the time to check all of this 'junk' flying our way to see what's real and what isn't when most of it is "c--p". Now that Obama is our next president, I want to wait and see what he does. Give him a chance. There is so little known about him that we really have no idea what this man is going to do. The environment he grew up in was so different from that of most whites and blacks: he had a white mother and was abandoned by his father early on. His white working class grandmother and grandfather, a veteran of WWII that served in Patton's army, raised him. What are his values: working class that pulled themslves with hard work up to become president of the United States. Abe Lincoln did that. Richard Nixon did too. A big contrast there. Time will tell us who Obama is. Let's hope he is a man with wisdom and that he knows how to use it for the overall good of us all.
