2007-03-24 22:38:00 Is there a rule against me posting two videos in one day? I hope not, because I am going to do it anyway.

Thank You Fernley Volunteer Fire Department and EMTs
2007-03-24 18:12:00 Today started out bright and early with me rushing a husband and a eight year old out the door for breakfast before a den meeting. For those of you who don't know, I was suckered into being a den leader with our local cub scout pack. My son is a member of cub scouts, and they were desperate for leaders. So I took on my son's den. I say suckered, because at the time, that is how it felt. I More About: Department , Men , Fern , Fire , Part

A Movie Quote
2007-03-24 04:42:00 The following is a quote from the movie, "A Few Good Men". Although the character in the movie who was saying this, was considered evil because he was using these words to defend an obvious wrong that had occurred, I can't help but quote these words now. I quote these words only in regard to what I am seeing occur amongst Americans who oppose the war. "Son, we live in a world that has walls, More About: Movie , Quote
[PPP] Home Security
2007-03-23 07:06:00 Home security is important to most everyone I know. Our homes are our sanctuaries, and the one place that we should always be safe. In this day and age, this isn't always the actuality. I know I have thought about home security on a number of occasions. Especially since I live in an apartment, and until recently was raising my son alone. Living in an apartment meant an alarm system was out More About: Security , Home , Gathering

2007-03-22 07:29:00 Um....I am not going to say that there isn't a human cause to global warming, but I do think that still remains to be proven with hard evidence. All that has been proven to my way of thinking thus far is that that we are in a warming trend, and that we pollute everything. Regardless of whether global warming exists as a human caused problem or not, the pollution is a problem. They may not be More About: Stars , Life , Star , Alli , Miss

[PPP] Verizon Phones
2007-03-19 21:17:00 I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for years. I love their services, their calling plans, and their coverage. In my opinion Verizon has one of the best wireless networks in the country, yet they haven't always been known to have the coolest phones or great prices. I just got a Motorola RAZR phone, and I am enjoying that immensely as well. It plays MP3’s on stereo head phones (head phones More About: Phone , Phones , Izon

2007-03-19 00:13:00 Yesterday was a day that really caused me to look back on my life of the last few years. The history that leads up to yesterday's story, is this.

It had not been a good marriage during the last two years of those five years. That is a very long story, it involved his More About: Yesterday , Este

Will Iraqis Ever Live in Peace?
2007-03-18 01:13:00 Many, many years ago (I was in high school) I was watching one of those silly awards shows on TV, and Whoopi Goldberg was hosting.
