Mara 29 Posted April 28, 2008 It's spring, the crazies are out again... It's freaky, though... that was, like, a block from my house. And the family goes to my church. Apparently the girl was so freaked out, she didn't even want to ride in a car past the area where the guy was. She got a really good description of the guy, though.

Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted April 28, 2008 i wasn't aware there was a "crazies" season. it's pretty much year-round here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 28, 2008 Everywhere, I'm sure. But they just come out more when it's warmer. And waiting right at the entrance to the path that goes to the school.... how obvious is that? I'm keeping an eye out for that blue car and the SOB in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayingel 24 Posted April 29, 2008 The Diocese of Little Rock, Arkansas proves how petty they are by arguing that women should not get mammograms from the Komen Foundation: http://www2.arkansasonline.com/news/2008/f...-support-komen/ This reminds me of the billboard outside my apartment. I can't quite see it from my window but it says something like "9 months: The length of time it is legal to get an abortion in Canada. Have we gone too far?" When I first saw it, I was waiting for the bus and I couldn't help just standing there with a look of sheer disgust on my face. How can it be legal to get an abortion up to full term? Like...the mother goes into labour and is in the delivery room when she says, "You know what, I've decided that I want an abortion instead." I don't believe it. It would be no better than the doctor pulling the baby out then shooting it in the head. yeah...there are some places in the states (if i remember correctly) that do them then too...

Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted May 2, 2008 we live behind a business where semi trucks are always coming in and out and at first we thought one of them had crashed into something. we heard later on the radio that it was indeed an earthquake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
