There's one big problem with the extension bill: Unemployed people in Colorado won't be able to receive the benefits because Colorado's unemployment rate is below the national average. I have been actively looking for work since being laid off. The companies at which I've applied either told me I didn't have enough experience or they simply picked other people for their open positions.

I haven't heard about all of the episodes yet, but at least two of the Black family were in the debut episode. Whether they remain on the show could depend upon whether Larry reunites with Cheryl. The story arc with the "Seinfeld" reunion will likely make way for that (since Cheryl said she liked Larry being at work on "Seinfeld" all the time.) |

There have been a number of these types of calls in the past few years. I remember reading about a man who called 911 because Subway wouldn't make his sandwich the way he wanted, then he called again because the police were taking too long to respond. Another woman in England called their emergency number (which is 999) to report an assault which was happening to a character on a TV soap opera.... |

One of my online friends actually invited me to play the Twitter version of Mafia Wars. It seemed like fun. Unfortunately, until another friend told me about this, I didn't realize the application was sending direct messages to everyone on my followers list (some got more than one message) inviting them to join. I went ahead and canceled my Mafia Wars account. Losing followers/friends because o... |

I originally signed up for LiveJournal to participate in a Web cartoon's blog/discussion page. I had started a blog at another site, but I later deleted that one and began blogging with LJ. My first blog post was made about a few weeks after I was involved in a car accident, while I was still recovering at an assisted-living facility I only made occasional posts at first. The posts became more ... |
 | jtr115 responded to a discussion called Oh No!! The Death Of Another Icon in life. 4 weeks ago
I didn't watch the Soupy Sales Show since it was before my time, but I remember seeing him on various talk shows, comedy specials and game shows. He appeared from time to time on the "Tonight Show" and even guest hosted a few times. Later on in life, I heard about how he got in trouble for telling kids to look in Mommy's purse or Daddy's wallet and send him "the little green pieces of paper wit... |
 | jtr115 responded to a discussion called 21st in travel. 3 weeks ago
So far I've only taken Caribbean cruises, but I've experienced some great attractions at each port. Each ship should have a desk featuring information about the shore excursions and their prices. I'm not sure if all cruise lines offer this, but Carnival passengers can book their shore excursions via their in-room TVs.
My favorite destination so far is Grand Cayman Island. Some of the attract... |

I guess I spoke too soon. At the end of the second episode, the Blacks wound up moving out following after Loretta assumed Larry was doing something intimate with another woman. |
