Andiism alert!

So...we're trying to figure out which show was once on that entailed Jerry O'Connell ...sliding from world to world. In the madness of discussion, I yelled "I KNOW it starts with an 'F'"

The show was Sliders. Andi, you're not alone. TomTom does begin with a "g".

pretty kitty! :)

This is baby Tatiana for those who have not met her yet. She is our new kitty. Dads late bday present, just given to him in an unusual form. We found her in our back yard and she is the sweetest thing. She's going to be an indoor kitty and she's onto a great start; shes using the litter box alll the time. I have had to clean it out twice since we've had her (since last friday!!)

In a world free of common sense...

Why, Arizona, why? Seriously? This is awful for me to say, but I will laugh at the first report of a man/woman getting shot by some drunk with his/her own weapon. Inshallah, it won't happen.

...I shouldn't ever have to put "inshallah" in the same sentence as weapons and alcohol...

...I agree...more school!

To quote Chief Wiggum in a recent episode of the Simpsons:

"I'm hearing a lot of problems and no solutions!" (He had belted himself to a lightpole.

All the things mentioned can be dealt with. I'm no expert of fixing things, but all the complaints in this story come across to me as laziness. Unwillingness to adapt.

I also want to say that this will keep kids off the streets longer, and keep them from idle activities. As a man who was once a pot-smoking teenager: Summertime was the perfect time to stay up late doing illegal activity, sleeping in and letting my brain turn to mush and then spending whatever days I wasn't working my ass off at Dominos staring at the television or doing other illegal activities. Looking back on it, I wish school had lasted longer. It would have given my teachers more time to get to know me and mentor me. It would have also allowed more stuff to be learned. Why is it that every year we were never able to get through an entire text book?

There's my opinion. More time in the classroom. More time to read the entire text book above the influence of bad things.

Augh

I'm not as strong as I pretend to be, evidently. Some jerk on youtube doesn't believe I'm a Marine and it's driving me insane. Why do I care about this ONE lowlife? I've given this guy everything save my social security number and he still won't believe me!

I need a psychology major to tell me how integrity works in a person so well that it can drive him or her completely bonkers when questioned.

A very well-balanced story, I should say

The comment on the end is...really, really just plain silly. It didn't even make me angry. It's that silly. I wish I could pat Mr. Consgrove on the head and say "No, dear. But that was a cute attempt."

I'm so happy for the Ummah right now though. This was definitely the right thing to do, mashallah. Allahu akbar.
