Should we concern ourselves with the effects of smoking, alcohol, pollution, obesity, safety from accident, and so on?

Now that they have been shown for what they are...impotent imbeciles. I think we the people should sue them for all the money they cost us tax wise to play "repeal and replace" so many times. I don't know about you but I like to get a good return on my investment. What substantive return did we get from these sad sacks? NADA! Don't you like to get your money's worth? Why aren't you outraged at these imbeciles who wasted millions of your dollars playing "let's pretend"? less

A formidable opponent for anyone. Will The Donald start TWITTER BASHING HER NOW? Now that could be a very interrrressssting presidential election. Woodenit?

After raising 4 children, who are all well adjusted adults now, to varying degrees (LOL), kiddo number 5, an eight year old has me stumped. He has always been a picky eater. Somehow his late mom was able to get him to eat some items I never thought he'd eat (like mushrooms, onions, and broccoli). For the past three months he has not only refused to even taste new items but on occasion he has refused his old favorites (like french fries). I need a simple effective, non-violent systematic method to get him to eat. (his favorites are spaghetti and meat balls, plain beef cooked medium with mashed potatoes, breaded chicken pieces and plain bread.Any reasonable ideas would be appreciated. The Ancient One is worn out. less

When I was 13 I was a little innocent baby lol, more concerned with reading fantasy novels and going on bike-rides than diving head-first into the slums of adult problems. My parents had it so easy with me. What about you? Were you easy on your parents?

I really have no idea what that was. I ate late, but I often do and the worst that usually causes is heartburn. This was something else. I feel perfectly fine now, though.

Seems like the Icelandic doesn't seems to have a word within the same category like the rest of the Nordic countries. However, they already got their own word in English: Geyser! Will that be the reason? Here together with the Northern Lights.

I'v been adding mulches and natural soil conditioners to it for over 20 years, When I first started the garden the soil was horrible but now it looks like the soil you buy in a bag at a fancy garden shop. Cheers!

Soooo wasn't Hilary accused of being a war monger? But Trump isnt? Hmm sure looks like he is to me! .. he's telling us that he wants to spend more money on military.. a fine and noble cause... he's not sure where the money's going to come from, or he IS but no one else thinks the numbers add up.. and that's without the cost of the big bad wall he's going to build...The US already spends more on defence than the next seven highest-spending countries combined. More was needed, however, because “we never win”, Mr Trump told a gathering of state governors. “We have to start winning wars again. When I was young, in high school and college, people used to say we never lost a war,” he said. “It’s a mess like you have never seen before.” less

Makes Bush look like a genius? They say intelligence is revealed in the language we use, more intelligent people use complex language.. how does that relate to Trump? less

Seat-of-the-pants Trump is a loose cannon who goes anywhere at anytime for any length of time and stays there or bouncity jounces around like a billiard ball.

In Trump’s vision, the nation is infested with “criminal cartels” and drowning in waves of illegal immigrants who are gunning down Americans with impunity. The Affordable Care Act is “imploding,” a total disaster, and the streets are awash in drugs.Look.. I go outside now and then, and I don't recognize that place..excon

I've never experienced them but I have read about kids committing suicide because they were driven to it by the evil folks who hang there just for that purpose. I don't get why anyone finds that worthwhile. I just don't.
