Why Is She Just My Friend?
2008-03-20 14:44:00 So many guys have (repeatedly) asked me this question.Why is it that I have feelings for my (girl) friend but she doesnt have the same feelings toward me? I'm sure that many women have wanted to tell those friends interested in them the REAL reason they turned them down, they just didn't have the heart to. So I'm going to tell you.R E A S O N # 1We're not physically attracted to you.It could be just as simple as that. It's just not there.R E A S O N # 2We've kissed you before. We've slept with you before.It was bad.R E A S O N # 3You're a jerk. Seriously.We love you as a friend, but we know that if we have to spend any more time with you, (i.e. the amount that we would spend with a boyfriend) we would have no hair left because we would pull it all out.R E A S O N # 4You know all those times that you told us you had a one night stand, the girl that you got the number from for the hell of it and never called, when you ch...

5 Random Facts About Me
2008-03-19 15:19:00 Another installment of "5 Random Facts About me"1. In Kindergarten I went to a Catholic school. We would have to go to assemblies by having the students in the upper grades hold our hands and walk with us in a line. Well I had a crush on one of the boys in the sixth grade and refused to take the hand of the girl who was supposed to walk with me. Needless to say I got into trouble.2. My hair goes from really dark blond in fall and winter to light dirty blond in spring and summer. People constantly ask me if I dye my hair.3. My eyelids have a very light bluish tint to them that you can only notice depending on how the light hits it (and eye makeup I'm wearing). I used to get asked when I was little why I was wearing eyeshadow. My bf makes fun of me telling me at least I don't need to ever consider getting permanent makeup.4. I despise white bread. It tastes like I'm chewing on thick cotton.5. I get very affected whenever I see a stay animal. I want to take them all in but for right...
JPMorgan Chase acquires Bear Sterns
2008-03-17 17:01:00 JPMorgan Chase announced yesterday that it acquired Bear Sterns for $2 a share. That's not just ugly it's downright brutal. To give an example of how ugly this whole situation is, BSC's 52 week high was close to $160 a share. At a current check of the stock, their price is 3.91. I feel bad for the more investors that got smashed in all this.
Tattooed Tile Decals
2008-03-17 16:45:00 I love these decals, they add a punch to plain tiles. Consider it a small, inexpensive renovation technique. They stick on to the tiles, are water resistant and leave no annoying, sticky residue when they are removed. They currently come in 6 different styles.
Is There Really Something Wrong?
2008-03-17 14:27:00 Poor Guys. Some have really crappy communication skillsbut some really do try to make an effort.Here is one trait that some women havethat guys cannot stand.Why do women say nothing is wrong,when something obviously is?There are three possible answers.***We don’t want to answer you right then and there. Why? Because you did something wrong. It’s bad, probably very bad, and we don’t want to yell at you or say something we’re going to regret. We'll curse you off in our minds, think of all the things we could do to you, and basically fume to ourselves. We would rather take our time to do that then cool off and breathe, decide whether or not we’re overreacting (and yes, I’ll admit it, we do overreact sometimes) and then talk to you. We feel like if we open our mouth to even tell you that we don't want to talk right then, everything will come flooding out and we'll look insane screaming at you.***Nothing really is wrong. You didn’t do anything. We can’t look happy and ... More About: Wrong
The Economy's Two Biggest Enemies
2008-03-14 23:23:00 Can you guess what it is? In my opinion, it's PANIC and FEAR. A looong time ago, before the economy wasn't as bad as it was now I noticed it. It started slowly. The market would have an okay day and I could see people start twitching. A second day and people started ringing their hands as well as twitching. By the third day, forget it, sweat is now pouring out and the once pale skinned person is now as red as a tomato. Buy, sell, panic, buy, sell, fear sets in, panic, cry, borrow money, panic some more and now their fear is bigger then they are. And this was BEFORE the economy turned to crap. So let me ask a question. Does anyone think that part of the reason we're in this mess is because people are panicking and have a deep sense of fear? Let me put it this way. When you get into a horrible argument with your significant other and you're crying and upset, what's one of the worst things that you can do? Drive. Why? Because you're not thinking clearly and you're panicked and c... More About: Enemies
What The Hell Is Going on?
2008-03-14 22:07:00 Okay really, I'm fuming. Why you ask? Well I just listened to the news for 5 minutes and heard that "Kristen" aka the high priced hooker, was offered 1 million dollars to pose for Hustler, her song is being played on what of the most popular radio stations in the area and apparently she's getting money thrown at her left and right for (non-sexual) offers. Does anyone else see a problem with this? Is that what people need to do nowadays? Instead of busting their asses working doing a legitimate job, I guess they have to bust their asses (yes, pun intended) in the bedroom. I'm not saying to burn the girl on the stake, but I don't think that society should be rewarding this girl for selling her body for money. I don't believe that this is someone that children should look at and say "Well if she sold her body for money, why can't I? I need money just as bad as she did. I had a rough life too."

Is The Call Girl To Blame For Bringing Down Eliot Spitzer?
2008-03-13 17:11:00 I'm hearing this question all over the place. The media is questioning whether or not the call girl is to blame for bringing down Eliot Spitzer . The only person to blame for this whole mess, is him. Now don't get me wrong, I don't condone prostitution in any way, shape or form. However, last time I checked, he contacted the escort service, she did not seek him out. This was (unfortunately) her job, that was not his. He is married and has children, she does not. I don't consider her a victim because she chose to live this life and be involved in this lifestyle, however. I don't see why the media needs to plaster her address all over the place.In one newscast alone, they showed her building, her address, said what floor she lives on, showed her myspace page, talked about her past abuse, how she wants to be a singer and how she loves music. Since when did is the focus off of him and onto her. It's reminiscent to me of the Monica Lewinsky/ Bill Clinton Scandal. Everything was more... More About: Girl , Eliot Spitzer , Call
What Makes A Man
2008-03-12 15:39:00 “I’m a man” says the guy standing in front of you. Congratulations to any “man” that says that but do you actually have anything to back that up? Me personally, I have a difference between what I call a man and a guy.You can be strong and sensitive and not be afraid to show it.You pay your own bills. I mean all of them. Your parents are not an extension of you. If they pay for it, it doesn’t mean that you do.You’re honest and you DON‘T LIE.You say/know a woman is great. Just because she shows a flaw or some flaws, you don’t go running away.The whole getting completely and totally wasted and acting like an idiot? (I.e. getting into fights, punching things, spilling things all over the place, being nasty, etc) …Not cool. Nor is driving drunk.YOU. DON’T. CHEAT.You don’t shy away from problems/issues. You know how to express yourself and get your point across through a conversation not through being nasty, ignoring it, or blowing it off. You can talk a problem ou...
Gas Prices Inch Toward $4.00, So Where Are The Changes?
2008-03-12 04:41:00 Ever notice that despite what everyone says about the price of gas, you never really see anyone cutting back on driving? Sure there are a couple of people somewhere but for the most part you never really hear anyone say "I'm just going to take public transportation instead." or "I'm going to walk." Hey that's an idea...people actually stop wasting gas- because you need to drive five minutes to pick up a loaf of bread. I know someone that drives TWO BLOCKS to pick up a pizza. Now don't get me wrong, there are people that have cut back on driving and do take advantage of other measures to get where they need to go. But there are people, like a man I saw that was interviewed on the news, that stated that he drives from down by the Jersey shore up to NYC because he doesn't feel like taking public transportation. He stated he spends close to $200 a week driving his car. He can save probably about $400 a month if he took the train. The majority seem to be willing to pay the extra mon...

12 Ways To Save Money When Dining Out
2008-03-11 03:46:00 Every once in awhile it's nice to just get out and not have to cook. Visiting different restaurants and trying different foods are an experience in itself. Eating out can be horribly expensive, but it doesn't need to be. Here are some tips to save you money when dining out.Before going to their restaurant, check out their website first. Many restaurants have coupons listed on their website that you can bring with you.If you visit a restaurant often, sign up for their e-mail list via their website. Through these emails you can receive coupons, notifications of special events, or receive discounts only available for subscribers to their e-mail list.Local restaurants deliver flyers to homes in the area to drive up more business. These flyers are usually packed with coupons.Skip the entrée, eat the appetizer. Portions seem to be growing and getting larger. In some restaurants, the appetizer is enough to make you full.Instead of eating dinner, go out to lunch when prices are usually c... More About: Money , Save Money , Save , Dining
NY Governor Eliot Spitzer
2008-03-10 20:24:00 I heard last week about some people being arrested for being part of a high end prostitution ring. Well allegedly, NY Governor Eliot Spitzer was also involved in it. I hope he enjoyed it considering he's been married for years and has three children.So what leads someone, especially someone in his position, to do something like this? Is it just the power that gets to their head? (no pun intended of course) There are his children he was supposed to be a role model for, a significant other that depended on him. Whether you're in a relationship or you're married, it's still your significant other and promises are still made. Doing what he did is inexcusable. He just left his family embarrassed and having to rebuild. I really hope it was worth it for him to lose respect, dignity and possibly his family. He can say he's sorry all he wants, but he still did it, got his kicks doing it and obviously thought nothing about his wife, his kids, his family, friends, supports, job or positio...

Screaming At Your Child
2008-03-10 20:14:00 While I was getting into my bf's car this weekend, I heard a loud screaming. I look across the street and saw some woman standing outside of the side door of her van, body hanging in the back seat screaming at her son who from what I heard, wouldn't put his seatbelt on. The boy must have been 3 years old and she was cursing up a blue streak at him. "You better F'n put your seatbelt on G** damnit!" etc and so forth. I absolutely cannot believe the way that this woman was talking to her son, no wonder the kid was screaming and crying hysterically. The language was just atrocious. This is why some kids know the "F" word at such an early age. If she's that bad out in public I can only imagine how she is in private. I stood there to make sure she didn't go psycho and beat the crap out of the kid (she didn't hit him while I was there, but if she would have started beating the hell out of him I would have said something), yes that's how bad she was screaming at him. She saw me, seem... More About: Child

I can make a popping sound with my eyelids.4. I adore crime shows. I could watch episodes of Without A Trace, Criminal Minds, Cold Case and CSI all day long.5. I love taking pictures and this is one of my favorites.I think these ducks are absolutely adorable. Apparently they thought I had food or mistook the camera for food. They ran right up to the window of the car and the duck tried to stick his head in the window. As soon as I got the picture, my bf proceeded to honk the horn and try to not run them over while I threw invisible bread trying to get them to move away. The ducks eventually ran for the fake bread.

"Does This Make Me Look Fat?"
2008-03-04 20:03:00 I don't understand why this is considered such a horrible question for a woman to ask her significant other. If you look fat in something, why wouldn't you want to know? Would you rather go out somewhere where your butt looks as though it's about to explode from your pants? I never understood this. If I ask my significant other, I expect him to give me an honest answer and he does.Guys, if she can't accept the answer, then next time she asks you just walk away.

Outdoor Experiences You Should Try Once In Your Life
2008-02-28 15:45:00 I love trying different, exciting things so when I had the opportunity to do these I immediately went for it.SkydivingYour life is never the same after doing this. Right before I went into the plane I was terrified. I got on the plane and then I was okay. Then the instructor started strapping himself to me. As we went toward the door I dragged my feet and started to panic. Finally at 13,500 feet I fell out of the plane. It was absolutely stunning especially since I went at sunset. You feel like you're floating and when you're done you want to go back up and do it all over again.

We Can Elect One, But Not The Other
2008-02-27 17:21:00 Ever since I started voting, something has bothered me. Why aren't the potential vice presidents chosen BEFORE the primaries? If the president and vice president position happens as a pair, shouldn't they be chosen as a pair as well? In my opinion the vice president position is almost as important as the position of president itself, especially since if something happens to the president in office, the vice president takes over.Also, I'm getting a little tired of hearing insults and stupid bickering. I feel like I'm watching children go back and forth with each other saying "You said I could play with that toy" with a response of "I'm sorry I have no memory of saying that." I don't care if the president is yellow, green, bald, tall, or Willy Wonka's cousin as long as they can do the job CORRECTLY.I would really just love to hear the facts instead of fighting.
