How to Attract as Many Insane People as Possible to Your Website, by Judy Bachrach

terminally ill. “No one gets out of here alive” and yet………. Facing death through an illness that defines the last moments is heart- wrenching. Makes most feel emotionally unstable and insane at times. On the brighter side, loved “Tuesdays with Morrie” for insight on facing both life and the end-death. Me? I still cannot fully emotionally ummm, handle……losing a child by miscarriage. Second trimenster, well-formed little boy. Miscarriages, that is something so taboo no one wants to talk about it. anyone?

Greenspan Shrugged? Did Ayn Rand Cause Our Financial Crisis?

Hi DeBurca, link worked. Those elephants are read by the minds of Republicans, (at least those I have spoken with recently,) that theelephants are claiming the Democrats are responsible for everything.! I see the “elephants” saying they themselves are responsible. Talk about novels. 1984 Doublespeak comes to mind. Power of words and lack of responsibilty……….. This is something I credit Greenspan with—the guts and intelligence to own up to his policies. I do respect the truth when spoken and the speaker.

Greenspan Shrugged? Did Ayn Rand Cause Our Financial Crisis?

The folks that should go to trial are the CEO’s and CFO’s and not Mr. Greenspan.

Greenspan Shrugged? Did Ayn Rand Cause Our Financial Crisis?

Marjorie, Alan Greenspan has the integrity to say that policies followed came to un-intended results. I admire this integrity in a world of “spinning” of the news. Personally I think “checks and balances” of our form of government, economy, and legislature is the source of American democracy that keeps us strong. We lost some of the essential checks and balances with deregulation. Calling Obama names,such as socialist, as his political opponents are doing, is also very dangerous. This will only hurt our economy more to stop good policies from happening just because an erroneous name has been tossed at it. Respect and careful thoughtful responses and less “spinning” of the news are required now. We all can learn from CSPAN, as you do. The folks that should go to trail are the CEO’s and CFO’s,

'The Hummingbird Sex Position' Demystified

Saw the new TV show ” My Own Worst Enemy” and this term was used that the wife enjoyed. I imagine it has something to do with humming or buzzing the lips on a sweet spot. :)

Minnesota Congresswoman in Hot Water Over Obama 'Anti-American' Remarks (Video)

Respectfully, showing support for a Presidential candidate by definition cannot be anti-American. “Guts of everyone” do defend the right of a two party system, yes? Dissenting voices, opinions? Barack Obama is as American as a person can be: a product of our education, a mixture of ancestry, understands the right to free speech and respectfully disagreeing, and willing to work very very hard for our country as a public servant and President. President of everyone actually.

Hillary: I'll Stay in Senate, Where Obama Will Need Me

Hillary, Thank you for ALL that you do. Getting calls for advice will be just the tip of the iceburg for your newly enlarged state of influence. In some ways you will weild more “push and power” in our Congress than the Pres. or VP when it will comes to getting things done. AND. without having to live inside the box, the white house becomes. You will have freedom and strength and an audience ready to listen. Health Care programs for all, please. We are counting on You.

Hillary Says 'Zero' Chance for Another Run for President (Video)

Senator Clinton, What a power team. You at the helm of the Senate and Obama/Biden in the white house…….the health care policies will have Care again. ……… we need you now more than ever. thank you for being such an immense inspiration

Do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever had an out-of-body experience or felt an otherworldly presence you couldn't deny?

Ghosts. Spiritual beings. Guardian Angels. By any name you give them, we share a link through our spirit, our soul, our awareness of self. Perhaps the spark of life connects us to the after-life. Provable? Not so much. Can we experience it? Just read the stories here. Thanks for expressing these touching moments in your lives.

Global Stocks Continue Free Fall, But Why?

Oil prices fell to a one-year low below $83 a barrel Friday as global investors participated in a panicked sell-off of both cruse and equities.” Huge money. People we may not be able to name or recognize; are making eronmous profits out of this selloff. In 2000 a barrel of oil fluttered around $20 a barrel. Huge amounts of money. No regulations on buying/selling/insider deals/no regulations at all. Those who bought commodities then, still made billions selling at $100 or $90 and lower. When the economics say this situation is complicated, this is part of the point of reference. It does not have to do with our price of gasoline for our cars. It has to do with high stakes use of money in “their world”. The money makers and money pushers and those now buying stocks really really cheap….those unknown folks will billions and somtimes trillions to invest (certainly none of their money will be “saved” or “invested” at 1.5 % interest rates!!! No Way!!!) These low interest rates were fuel to our crisis and continues to be.

Liz Smith: John McCain, How Old Is 'Too Old'? … Conservative Queens: Sarah Palin vs. Ann Coulter

Liz, Forgive me for putting this “out of place” but I want to share this non-partisan website that is chock full of good information for voters: LWV, League of Women Voters has a website that provides non-partisan information on topics such as Am I registered?-good for first time voters or those who have not voted for a few years. Where do I vote? locate your polling place This is not as easy as some might think. What do I use for ID? Will I need ID? How do I get an absentee ballot? What is the deadline for applying for an absentee ballot? What is the deadline for the Election Office to receive the voted upon ballot? VOTE411.org

HerTube: Happy Birthday, Jackson Browne (Video)

Many Happy Birthdays to you Jackson! You have given the visual image and the music that may best fit the Boomer generation in your album we call Road . Sure, the music of Detroit, the Beatles, the Stones, The Dead, James Taylor and many more are part of a musical catalogue; but, if one iconic image fits the personality best of this generation, it may well be the image of a road going off into the distance as on your cover. Searching, travelling, not knowing what will happen as a result of the travels(good and bad) and it seems, living life as if running on empty. Thank you for giving voice to inner angst that we listened to first in our youth and now as well.

Talk to Tom Brokaw! The Author of <i>Boom!</i> Takes Questions From Our Readers

Do you think the under-thirty voters will stand in line for hours to vote or just turn away? ————————————————- In 1968 I was leaning toward a solid row of policemen with gun barrels pointed out, to put a flower in a barrel; when my astute friend said. “Stop! These are Philly cops, you can’t do that here! ” Now, years later, after college, teaching high school, then managing a business while rearing children, and becoming part of the establishment of my church, school board committees and local government; I am still a boomer. Loved your book. My observation on current election here in Pa. I am surrounded by people my age driving the registering of voters. The boomers are out on the streets again. It is now up to the now under-thirties to stand in line and make their voices heard for the first time by voting. Will they? That is my question. —————————————————— meanwhile I would like to say this: I live in an area of huge foreclosure rates. Families moved here from north NJ and NYC areas to live. Our schools are almost 50 % minority. I love that families want a better education and better life for their kids; however,the 70-100 mile each way commute is virtually killing the parents, balloon rates are killing their marriages and finances. The ones caught in the worst of it are the children. We have gang colors, heroin raids by police, and…oh yeah, we still have bear hunting in our miles of woods here in the Poconos. We are a microcosm in Pocono Mountain School District. 52 languages as primary language of parents. Low literacy rates, high drop out rates, gun violence between young people at the local Wal Mart. I love our country and I am praying and working hard in this election. I think the Obama policies will speak to these very problems. We have been invisible for eight years now.
