Re: WHO IS PAYING THE MOST (OR LEAST) IN THE WORLD FOR GAS??

I am in Michigan and I just paid 2.65 a gallon. Last week I paid 2.25. Not as bad as most places I guess

Re: Inspiration

Before getting sick and being exposed to things working in a jail I was on the bone marrow list. A few of us did it in response to a co worker suffering from some form of Blood cancer. Sadly he passed before any of us could help, but we stayed on the list just in case someone else needed it. Not sur...

Re: The Safer Sex law in Calf

I would respectfully disagree with you that this a party specific type of agenda. This is one man, and one organization that deems itself to be that last word in all things relating to the adult industry even though they have no direct link to the industry. I affirm the fact that the county will do ...

Re: Inspiration

I just learned that a friend of mine is donating her kidney to another mother at her daughter's school. She went through all of the testing and is good to go. She posted a video of her telling the woman that she was going to be her donor and that gave me all of the feels! Such a selfless act and it...

Re: The Safer Sex law in Calf

I have been reading as much as possible about this since watching the meeting this morning. What I found is that this was passed solely due to the fact that they may have felt they had no other alternative. It is also an ordinance that has to be enforced by the county health dept, not the police. Si...

Re: Inspiration

Vicky I would agree with you on having an open mind and heart when you see someone else that inspires you in that moment. It reminded me of a quote I saw not long ago; No amount of darkness can extinguish the light from a single candle. That day at Starbucks, that server was yours and that homeless ...

With all that is going on with the hate from all sides and our elected officials doing what they do best, NOTHING, I want to start something to inspire people. A threat to share the things, people, quotes, books, anything at all that has inspired you to be better than you can be. To rise up and stan...

Re: Suicide

What I have come to learn about myself in the last few weeks is that I am certainly not alone. I have received some very thoughtful notes from a few of you. Rokker, you sir are a prince among men, thank you. I have also learned that time does heal all wounds but the scares remain. I opened my eyes a...

Re: Rant of the day!! - no apologies needed.

I have a rant, or should I say a great annoyance, I hate when sitting an airport, or other public place and some person begins popping their gum as if anyone around them wants to listen to you chew your cud and then make noise with it. One day I had enough and lost my shit when some person continued...

Re: Rant of the day!! - no apologies needed.

I am going to start something here. I work out quite a bit and there are those un-written rules of the gym that apply to everyone just not a few. 1) You only get to use one piece of equipment at a time not three. You are not alone in the gym 2) If you about shit yourself lifting a weight, guess what...

Re: The Official "Douchebag" Thread

Here is my slant of this. I hate bullies beyond all imagination. I think these POS are the biggest cowards that walk the earth. They exists at all age levels and some never ever grow up, they continually think they can say and do whatever they want and there will be no consequences. I hate these peo...

Re: Suicide

First I need to say thank you for reaching out. Over the last few days I have done a great deal of soul searching and trying to understand my past. A lot of what happened in the last few weeks stems from what happened to me when I was 12. I am not going to go in detail about but to say when you thou...

Suicide

I am going to apologize up front for this but it needs to be talked about in the wake of two high profile suicide. I am talking about Chris Cornel and Chip Bennington. I have read many things in regards to this subject because it is something very prominent in my life. At first glance you would look...

Re: Concerts & Other Live Shows We're Attended!

I have the opportunity to work security at our local arena. I have seen roughly 400 shows over the last 20 years from Kiss, Aerosmith, AC/DC and every thing in between. Some I just as soon forget but ones like Elton John and Fleetwood Mac were amazing. I also had the opportunity on several occasion ...

Re: The Safer Sex law in Calf

It was amazing to see first hand a small group of people dedicated and united to fight for a single cause. Although this was a fight like no other that I can remember with the performers out spent by millions of dollars they came together in one voice and came out on top. As it was said, this ass wi...

I have strong views on this subject. I served my country and am very proud of that. To me the Flag is not just a symbol of our country it is so much more than that. It is a reminder of all who served through out the years for us to live in a country that allows us the freedoms we hold so dearly. Whe...

This law will give him more power over a single industry th...
