Unfortunately, I was nine months old when JFK was killed; He died the same year I was born, the same year MLK did his I had a Dream speech, and so much has changed in that time. So much. Yet I can tell you what I was doing when MLK died, when Nixon resigned, when Reagan got shot, Elvis died, Lennon, 9/11, when Obama got elected and so on and so on.
I will say this; when I was a little girl, a... |

Not too often; The last item I bought was a dress I bought to wear to church around August that I saw in Belk's. It was something to look nice in coming to church and that was the last item I bought for myself. Week before I bought a couple pairs of underwear that I could truly use. I also put some clothes in the dry clean as well. There are too mnay other needs out there beside me worrying abo... |

I agree and from the time she told me until now, I haven't had nothing to say to her. I told my boyfriend about it too and he said he would help her since she claimed to have fibromyalgia or what ever it is called; but the thing to it all is that she had another guy coming and had me running interference and from the door, it was fishy. Thanks for your answer. |
 | Savvynlady commented in a discussion called Where were you when you found out Michael Jackson died? in michael jackson. 5 days ago
You know it is funny that you mention the things he was talking about; I got to hear Earth Song AFTER his passing sadly, and I think about what he was trying to convey and to tell us and I am sorry we weren't good listeners. I agree. We in our way should try to keep his work going in our own little way. |

Well I wish one would come my way because I sure don't see it down this way and yesterday, I heard that unemployment in Alabama was over 10%.so if it's so, some of that should come this way; though there may be a ring of truth to that because that may consist of federal jobs. who is to say? |
