    Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

    I was offended. Never said I was. I was just generalizing. There's such a big deal about saying "merry Christmas" or "christmas party". Everyone is supposed to say "happy holidays" or "holiday party" so we don't hurt someone feelings. :rolleyes: I was just wondering if the same was try about...

    Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

    I've never really thought of St. Patrick's day as a holiday. I've never worked at a company that gives you a day off work for St. Patrick's day. I've never bought or received a St. Patrick's day card. I've never gone to a parade on this day. I don't drink beer so going out and drinkin'...

    RIP Corey Haim

    Accidental overdose....... Do the people that sell illegal drugs put dosage labels on the bottles ?

    RIP Corey Haim

    I have similar feelings to yours. It sucks the guy died. He didn't overdose on purpose to commit suicide, so I guess that's why they call it accidental overdose. If he's abusing drugs and dies from it they should just say - Death due to drug abuse instead of accidental overdose.

    Umm, James Arness isn't dead! It's pretty funny you posted the same mistake in both threads. :D

    R.I.P. Peter Graves

    The OP must have missed the thread titled R.I.P Peter Graves that was posted 12 hours before this thread.

    DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME BEGINS SUNDAY MARCH 14

    :haha I was referring to what some idiot at work usually says on the Monday after the time change. On April 14th when someone mentions April 15th is the due date to file your taxes the same guy says - Really ?!!, The taxes are due tomorrow ?!!

    Man kills brother

    I've gotten plenty angry at relatives and even strangers, but I've never had the urge to shot, or stab anyone. It's really bad that this guy got angry enough to shoot his brother. He lost a brother and now he'll spend xx years in prison over it. His life will never ever be the same. :no

    DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME BEGINS SUNDAY MARCH 14

    It's mentioned on the wall calendars, in the newspaper, on the TV news, etc.. and there's always some person that says - I didn't know we changed the clocks last weekend. :rolleyes:

    home insurance

    There's tons of things that affect this. Like you said low deductible, there's also multiple things(car, boat, house, cabin, motorcycle, jetski, etc...)discount, or they have half as much coverage as you, no total replacement coverage. It seems like every time people start talking about...

    RIP Corey Haim

    I would have never recognized him from the last picture. I could have walked right past him on the street and not had a clue of who he was.

    Man kills brother

    :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Just remember If he wouldn't have had a gun he'd have probably stabbed him in the chest with a knife, or bashed his head in with a lamp. I guess some one in the same city stabbed a brother to death recently. KSTP TV - Minneapolis and St. Paul - St. Paul man...

    My home insurance and taxes go up every year but I'm not getting priced out of my home.

    Signs of economy improving

    The more cars on the road might also have been people going to the unemployment office to apply for unemployment pay in person, going to resume writing seminars, interviewing seminars, using the unemployment office computers to do job seaches, or going to the casino.

    Help my wife identify this sci-fi short story

    It was pretty funny in STARSHIP troopers when they were fighting the bugs on the ground and all the people were getting slaughtered. What kind of idiot would decide it's a great idea to fight an enemy like this face-to-face? :rolleyes:

    Official first look: Sony 3D Blu-Ray Player

    I don't think that picture will get you in trouble. Could be pretty much any DVD player, or CD player. I can't even make out SONY in the picture.

    Signs of economy improving

    A friend of mine said it was the same for for him. He had to go to the state unemployment website every monday, answer 6 questions, got direct deposit 2 days later. He did have to go in once and discuss his job search. He brought his updated resume, talked about how he searches for work, what...

    Signs of economy improving

    If you get laid off or fired and you qualify for unemployment pay you should take it, that's what it's there for. I'm not saying you should collect unemployment money and sit home waiting for the phone to ring with a job offer or go fishin' or snowmobilin' every day like some people do. You...

    Signs of economy improving

    Your several friends that have been laid off over the past 1.5 years but got back to work within 3 weeks is great, but that's not the norm, and it also doesn't mean anyone that can't get a new job within 3 weeks isn't trying hard enough. In most cases if it's a really good job someone is...

    Signs of economy improving

    Sounds easy, but not really true. Are you currently retired lakebum ? Maybe some unemployed people don't want to or can't afford to just move to a new city or state right now. Maybe some people can't change their income and still pay their house payments, car payments, family expenses...

    You're just now beginning to really get concerned ? That happened to most people about a year ago.
