Everything you consume can give you cancer. And no one knows what the hell we're doing here and what the hell happens when we're gone. It's no wonder we're all on drugs. Everyone I know uses something--something to drive out the fear and feelings of helplessness. Some drink. Some smoke pot. Some do coke. Others use sex, money, religion or power. These are my thoughts on the subject.Alexnoreply@blogger.comBlogger37125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27100121.post-5198647469208880442009-03-27T01:43:00.001-07:002009-03-27T01:43:12.587-07:00

Owing to the current economic situation, my investments had not protected my income, and I was in need of releasing equity. First on the list was our Club La Costa Vacation Points, it was after all a luxury and the prospect of a holiday on the horizon looked very distant. Following a research into how to sell timeshare points, I had registerd my interest with a company called 'Travel and

It's been almost 25 years since I stepped out of college. All the memories that I have retained ranges from acing exams and partying until the end of time. But one of the things that I remember fondly was how I just got by on what little money I had. What made it fun was seeing how far you could go on the food situation. Oh the days of cooking in the dorm!I can remember always coming back to the

The 2008 Apple Blossom Festival went on as planned despite several threats of rain. People were everywhere for the weekend in Winchester, Virginia on the first weekend of May this year. It is hard to figure the actual attendance because there is no gate to this downtown Winchester event. But there were as many people as there always is at this awesome celebration.There was a carnival open three

By Paul HerdmanThe quality of a tv documentary depends on a number of factors, namely the balance between information and entertainment. I have noticed many documentaries of late have went through a process of "dumbing" down and the educational merit of such documentaries is questionable. on the other hand a tedious or boring documentary will normally result in loss of interest or the viewer

When your baby can sit with support, hold his head steady, and can take food off with his mouth from the spoon and swallow it easily, this is the right time to move to the next diet stage. This usually occurs when baby is 4 to 6 months old.The first food your baby can eat is baby cereals. After baby cereals, you can give your baby rice, then oatmeal. Later on, when he knows how to drink from a

Shopping for baby clothes and accessories can be so much fun, especially when you are shopping for a baby shower gift for someone you love! Baby clothes make great gifts for new parents.Baby clothing from boutiques are very popular gifts. Many even have gift registries for expectant parents. Most larger towns and cities have these specialty boutiques, but these can also be found in quaint smaller

I know I haven't been posting here lately, but I do have good reasons.I am currently studying for my LSAT's, which I will take on December 3rd. Yes---it's true---another lawyer is in the making.

In addition to that, I have been working on some writing for publication and that has been zapping all of my creative juices.But....the pregnancy is still progressing

Is it possible for words to actually cause morning sickness?I swear every time I hear or read the words "Brangelina," "Tomkat," or "Dashmi" I want to toss my cookies into the nearest waste receptacle.

I think I am starting to figure out why we have such a high divorce rate in this country. We have ridiculous romantic expectations of what it means to be married.Yesterday I was reading one of the hundreds of pregnancy websites I read on a daily basis and stumbled upon a forum about husbands who refuse to be in the delivery room with their wives. Hundreds of men had posted comments saying they "

Okay, I know it's been a really long time since I've posted here. But that's because I've been busy doing this----making that little peanut up there.Today we had our first ultrasound. I can't really describe how amazing it was seeing that little guy move around and hearing its heartbeat. It finally feels real. I finally feel pregnant instead of just sick.

We are finally back from our surprise evacuation vacation. We hit some traffic on the way out (though not as bad as most people) and on the way back, but all in all, it turned out to be a nice little excuse to visit the family in Arkansas. After all, I don't usually get three days of free vacation. We returned to find our house completely intact except for a few branches in the backyard. So Rita

So......after Houstonians selflessly opened up our city to the evacuees of Hurricane Katrina.......after we volunteered and gave as much as we could...........it seems that we are finally being rewarded.........with a hurricane of our own. So much for Karma.Hurricane Rita is now headed directly for the Texas coastline. Our local forecasters are predicting that power could be out for as long as a

On the way to work this morning I passed an interesting billboard. It was black and white and had one word written on it in large, somber letters—DIGNITY. It was for a funeral home.I began to ponder the concept of dignity. “Dignity” is a word that has been thrown around a lot lately. News reporters have blathered on about the dead in New Orleans being “robbed of their dignity” by the failure of

My online pregnancy calendar says that my baby's heart starts beating today.I'm guessing this is why I had my first full blown attack of morning sickness today. I feel like I've been up all night doing tequila shots.Pregnancy: all of the hangover, none of the booze.

On Saturday I went to the Astrodome to volunteer. After tossing and turning all week, I figured it was the least I could do. Driving up to the dome, I was immediately shocked by the sheer number of people I saw. They were everywhere. There were many pants less children being pushed around in shopping carts by their parents and others walking around with signs looking for relatives.After being

My emotions are completely out of control this morning. I can't get over what's happening in New Orleans. My best friend's family lives down there and they've pretty much lost everything. But it's not just the news coverage that's making me cry. It's everything. It's every stimulus I come in contact with. I can’t even listen to a slow song on the radio without crying. I hate this feeling. I hate

Hi, folks.We are back from our vacation, and apparently just in time, given the weather on the gulf coast. It was lovely. I did a lot of laying around on the beach, laying around by the pool, and laying around in the condo.

Do you ever stop and think about how different your life would be if you made just one choice differently? Just one choice?I do. The most important decision I have probably ever made was where to go to college. I know that may seem trivial in comparison to deciding who to marry or when to have children, but those decisions were the direct result of my choice of where to go to school. I agonized

This is a long one, but full of good info.This following articles were taken from www.vegsource.com and www.alternet.org respectively.

Have you guys seen the new Wendy's commercial? The one with the ranch tooth? In the commercial, this dude talks about how he has a ranch tooth instead of a sweet tooth that makes him crave ranch dressing. Everywhere the guy goes, this giant tooth wearing a cowboy hat and bandanna follows him around chanting "raaaanch."It follows him to the store. It follows him to work. All the while, slowly
