That's president Bush we're talking about here. If tears are a sign of weakness, rolling down his cheeks become a sign of stregth and courage.

It's funny so many people say they are just not good at something and with enough practice that would be great. Practice is what makes you good at something. Talent can only take you so far.

In response to:DRINKING GIN AND TONIC THROUGH A STRAW

Thu, 24 Jan 2013 07:05:18 +0100

Drinking through a straw still exposes the back teeth, however this is still the preferred method. As an added bonus, straight after your wine etc, swish your mouth out with water. This will do wonders to help remove the harmful acids, sugars and bacteria that would otherwise be stuck to your teeth. But a word of caution: with some meals you should never brush straight after, as you'll do more harm than good. Just swish with water and brush two times a day (especially at night) and you'll be fine. When brushing, spit out the fluoride.. it's better than swishing with water unless you're a minor in which case swish.

my husband is having memory losses the last one being this morning i.e. the green bin was emptied on Saturday morning and we did gardening on sunday and half filled the bin again,. Today whilst at work i received a telephone call from him saying that someone has filled our bin up with leaves. i told him it was us on Sunday and he has no memories of us doing the gardening at all. Is this something that he needs to go to the doctors for, he has been forgetting things quite frequently lately.

You bring up a number of sound points here. I've always wondered...what's the point of having this little chip anyway? Is it really *that* much of an inconvenience to swipe your card the old fashioned way?

Your baby is so adorable! I remember my niece because she was also born with natal teeth. Have you encountered any minor problems? Other parents ask their doctor to remove the teeth because it might get in the way of nursing. Removing it is fine, since it’s just an extra round of teeth. Your baby will still get his baby and permanent teeth.

I wouldn't call that 'a view!' It is a horrible sight of congestion and over-built high-rises. To think it has come to this, to be expected to pay a fortune for such a miserable sight!

I read this morning that Obama is to ask NATO this coming week to build an Afghan army that can defend the country after 130,000 Internation troops pull out.
There will be 60 countries and organizations expected to help, although many such as Japan are far away and naturally not involved, or even interested.

As long as amazon will still continue to deliver its good service to us and they will be not bankrupt or anything worst than that, i think we don't have anything to worry. Not bad to pay a little tax because it is for our own benefit. I think we should just continue to support them, buy goods from them. i you guys need a reference regarding the amount of tax that we are going to pay just check out the computation in here chicago tax help it is the one use in US.

In response to:IT'S CHEAPER UP NORTH

Where I live, is on a par with Hull. We have familes of three and four generations of unemployed - not all lazy either! We have high streets full of take away shops and charity shops and empty shops. The Netto that we all used as a corner shop, has closed and replaced by an Asda that is very expensive in comparison, although they have introduced a large range of goods at a £1.00.

You will have to move a few hundred miles North for economic living!

The good side - we are very close to open countryside, there are big open skies. The land coved by mining activity is now reclaimed into Country Parks. The new housing developments are bought by the Commuting workforce. I would not want to live anywhere else now.

Perhaps we should have the same law here. I live in the South and have to pay the higher prices. However, I am only on a pension and do not receive the high average wage paid in this wealthy area.

That is just terrible. I don't think that sort of price for a famous name is allowed to change prices acording to the area, here in the States.

That sounds so very awful. I only remember once, when I was taken into an empty 'royal' room with my husband, and offered champagne. It had a lovely bathroom with loads of stuff to clean-up with for it had been a long journey.
something had gone wrong with our booking, and it was their way of trying to make amends. Must say, it was extremely enjoyable and we took naps on their long settees!
A tiny example of how the 'others' live!
