I've never even seen or heard about facebook. I've just found your site and I'm adding some comments on some of the things I'm reading. I've just retired and I'm 60+ years old new to using a computer and my son said this is the thing for me to do, look for site that I enjoy reading and make comments, and I'll find friends or sites I like.

Haven't hear of an OpenCoffeeClub? Of course I live in a rural area in the south so I'm not sure we would even have a place to meet. Probably we could meet in one of the barns at my neighbors and all bring our own cup of coffee, only as long as the cows hadn't been in it over night, if you get my meaning.

I once started a business with $35.00 and stayed in the business for 10 years. I did not become rich but made enough to help support our family of 5. It depends on the type of business and how you are going to market it.

As a US citizen we need to take care of our on first. I understand there are others in other countries that need our help. However, it is now time for us to pull back and concentrate on our own citizens, they all need houses, jobs, new way of dealing with prisioners, drugs, immigrants. We can not cure the world ills. If the movie stars or millionaires want to try then more power to them, but charity begins at home.

Re: The World is Now Dominated by Women, Where Have I Been?

What was that Walt Disney movie about the Lion King. The circle of life. Welcome to our world men, now how do you like it. Being 60+ I can remember when women did not work away from the home, they stayed home and took care of everything. The few women who did, it was expected of them to still take care of everything and work outside of the home, as my mother did. With 6 kids it was very hard on her. My husband was raised with the same mentality as my father. I resented having to work outside the home and do everything, so when I raised my children they were all raised gender did not matter, they all worked in the home, men and women could do whatever they wanted to do, marriage was 50/50. Raising kids was 50/50. My son does the cooking, takes the kids to the Dr more than his wife. I think a lot of women changed the way their daughters and sons were raised when it was required that they work outside of the home.

Re: Pro-Lifers Say No to Habitat for Humanity

annakat — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 20:08:14 -0000

Why in the world would anyone want to stop the Habitat for Humanity from helping low income families having a home. That is the most ridiculous thing I've heard of in a long time. Did they state the homes had to go to unwed mothers? If not the homes could have gone to anyone that needed a home and was in line for one. Myself I think the Habitat for Humanity should have gone ahead and bought the land for $10.00 and built the houses.

Re: Crisis Pregnancy Centers Having to Tell People They Lie? Hells Yes!

I had no idea that they were telling such things. I agree they should only tell true factual medical facts. Matter of fact there should be a medical pamphlet that has been approved by the medical association given to the girls. Any clinic that give's any other advise needs to be closed and the personnel prosecuted.

How true it is. Wise words for anyone to use no matter what business they are in. I'm going to print this out and hang it up in my office to refer to, especially when I read and start to respond to something that I highly disagree with. Great Job!!

Love to read, so naturally I love the site. A few of the books I've already read but there are some of them I'm going to have to get from Amazon. Its so much easier for me to order from Amazon than to go to the store and buy them. I pretty much buy everything on-line now a days.

Re: New York Historical Photos

Look at the price of the shave 10 cents, it would have to be old. Great black and white picture of the era. I'm glad the government had a program so there would be so photo's and pictures of the time. Wonder if there were very many pictures done of the rural areas of the south.
