clary21 I pick up every penny I see because it is a learned habit from childhood. My first-grade teacher did not believe me when I told her that a dime she found was mine. So, in order to get my brownie-scout dues paid, I searched for pennies underneath the monkey...

clary21 I understand because I have been there. How come your fiance said some things you can't repeat? I hope he was not cursing in front of the children. It is human nature for mothers to be protective of their young, and us mothers do not like to be told we need...

Canada has strict gun control rules, and the average citizen does not carry a gun. The United States differs as they have a right to bear arms. Some people say that the Virginia Massacre may never have happened if there was at...

clary21 I agree that my brother could have used other weapons. It's just that his girlfriend was screaming out for help, and it took him 8 quick shots to kill her. There is the possibility that if it had been something else, then maybe an onlooker might have been able...

clary21 I know what you are going through because I listened to all the excuses my ex used to give me. Finally, I got an attorney that handled the situation for me, and I never went without the payments after that. It's strange how my ex came up with the back child...

clary21 I have to definitely agree with you. Unfortunately, twice my younger brother achieved a gun through his acquaintances on the streets. The police took his gun away from him the first time and did not return it. Even though he tried to burn his girlfriend's...

clary21 I know after a certain amount of time (I think it's 7 years in Texas) you can have your records sealed. You can go to a law library and get the paperwork to do the legal proceedings yourself for a fraction of the cost to hire an attorney. For an example, an...

I want to get this off my chest. Cho Seung-Hui killed 32 people at Virginia Tech. It was an evil, violent act and he should be condemned for it. However, I'm a little annoyed at the way people are reacting. Over and over,...

clary21 I guess I am pretty cheap, too, because I prefer cloth towels so I can use them again and again. It just seems so wasteful to throw them away. I know paper towels are probably a better way of fighting germs, but I just hate to waste the extra money on them.

Yet another "school shooting", this time in Virginia at Virginia State University. A gunman goes on a rampage and kills 30 people, within a span of 2 hours time. This seems to be a very "typical" headline anymore for a certain...

clary21 Yes, you may say whatever you want but not to anybody. Try calling a police officer a bad name and see if you do not land yourself in jail. And it is up to the crowd if they want to get offended or not. For example---when Al Sharpton called the poor white lady...

clary21 Rozie37, I hardly know how to respond to some of your beliefs. You say that freedom of speech should have limits. How can an individual think twice before offending others when he/she does not know they will be offended? I think intention must be a part of it....
