Under fire for promoting violence, Beck doubles down to rally support for “radical” gun group » Posted By boomer1949 On October 19, 2010 @ 11:11 am Kinda’ like earning your Eagle Scout badges and paraphernalia. Silly if you ask me, but then I was only a Jr. Girl Scout. 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On October 17, 2010 @ 7:53 pm kesmarn, First…YGM Second, aren’t you special? Did you know you can get a Super Woman Halloween costume @ Farmville? Has absolutely nothing to do with Arianna Huff&Puff, but it sounds really credible to blame her, eh? Re: H&P…I read once in awhile, but haven’t posted there since mid 2009. Too many faves are gone, Hume being one, and too many of my fave POV loyalists have jumped ship for the notoriety; kinda like kids wanting to win a Wii game. Just sayin’… » Posted By boomer1949 On October 17, 2010 @ 7:49 pm Sock Monkey Fear dear…sock monkey fear… If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck? It’s pretty much a duck — aka ole’ fashioned RACISM. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 9:56 pm Oh kes, Given what I believe is your proximity (OH-I-O) to where the daughter teaches, I’ve no reservations that she, her boss, or her peers would have ANY objections to you hanging around for a day or so. Truly an eye opener; kind of like sensitivity training. However…as a nurse, I know you “get it”; as a Mom, we both do. Let me know (and anyone else who might want to be enlightened), and we’ll try to work something out with her and the Administrator in her school. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 7:00 pm kes, et.al, As I’ve mentioned before, my daughter teaches Kindergarten. OMG the stories I could tell. My point is this crap starts early, very early (depending where these little ones live). I’m a firm believer in NURTURE, children, mimic, express the feelings and opinions of the adults in their lives. What they experience. By example…duh. It ain’t rocket science Morans (present company completely excluded btw), it ain’t rocket science. Have someone displaying bigotry, foul language,disrespect, as an example? What can one expect from a little kid then? Anyone who BELIEVES a 5 or 6 year old is capable of thinking for him/her self is beyond squirrely…so beyond. Seriously., take parenting classes. This comment is so OT everyone — must say I love Sela Ward in CSI:New York. Liked Melina K, but Sela? No comparison — none. Grownups are supposed to know better. If the adult doesn’t, his/her parents missed the boat. Hugs & all that warm & fuzzy stuff, » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 6:22 pm kes, AdLib, bito, & For me, the parents of today are my kids or my friends’ kids, their kids are our (at least mine :-)) grand kids. Always thought I was doing better than my parents did with me (and in some respects I think I was successful) » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 6:06 pm Dear bito and AdLib (and of course anyone else reading this), My cousin is Gay and although I’ve not seen either he or his partner for a number of years, they have been together for a long, very long time. Years ago, when my daughters were minors, and although I never told them or my cousin, if anything had ever happened to my former spouse and me, I would have wanted my cousin and his partner to have custody. Period. Why? Because my parents and my former husband’s parents would not have been acceptable role models (my acceptable role models) for the girls — now adult women. In my heart and mind, my cousin and his partner would have been able to teach acceptance and tolerance, neither of which either of our parents could fathom, much less mentally process or teach — especially by example. Eewwww, and I’m totally embarrassed. More later online or off, because I don’t want to steal your thunder bito and dear Sheriff. However, City Councilman Joel from FORT WORTH TX has my respect and admiration for putting the lives of many, many young people before his own agenda. As I expressed before, God bless this man for, for…simply taking a stand and having the courage to speak out. boomer » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 5:40 pm God bless this man…for doing what he did three days ago and if his actions saved just one life…who can argue with that?
and..in the words of some guys from my generation…*edit* sounds much better with the four of them, but the MESSAGE is the same: » Posted By boomer1949 On October 15, 2010 @ 4:06 pm Hidden treasure maps? » Posted By boomer1949 On October 13, 2010 @ 9:32 pm Oh AL, I was married at 22 — long ago — but still 22. Had an infant to care for by 23. Where was my therapist then? 😆 Married for close to 24 years before I tossed in the towel. Long story and not appropriate for an open forum. What bothered me most was this young man’s (the 22 yo, indifference to the world going on around him; his lack of compassion was the biggest red flag. Night all, it’s 12:21 a.m. EDT. As Kalima will attest, our furry ones are on a totally different body clock than the rest of us Far beyond my “stay awake capacity” and it ain’t Vox See y’all on the other side…++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ » Posted By boomer1949 On October 13, 2010 @ 9:29 pm Okay, talk about disheartening… Just went to the convenience store and the 22 yo clerk said he was so disgusted with us, our country, that he was saving his money to move to AUSTRALIA. What’s wrong with this fucking picture? btw — at the time — Christine O’-what’s her name was on CNN. Isn’t it sad that a 22 yo guy is so disillusioned by what he has seen in his short life wants to leave the United States and move to another fucking country? I don’t care what country, it could be any country, it’s sad he is tossing in the towel, so very sad. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 13, 2010 @ 5:26 pm From Think Progress: Exclusive: Chamber Receives At Least $885,000 From Over 80 Foreign Companies In Disclosed Donations Alone » Posted By boomer1949 On October 13, 2010 @ 1:15 pm Just Received This From Sherrod Brown… Tue, October 12, 2010 11:11:28 AM ——————————————————————— If you saw that disclaimer– » Posted By boomer1949 On October 12, 2010 @ 8:39 am Ah, Sam Waterston…my favorite District Attorney 😉 » Posted By boomer1949 On October 12, 2010 @ 1:43 am Didn’t get it from MoveOn, but a PlanetPOV friend posted it on her Wall. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 4:47 pm Patsy, Re: the magic wand…those who listen and follow Limpballs, the Beckster, Fuck News, the Tea Pottiers, and can not think for themselves. boomer » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 4:42 pm Oh kes, we had a false alarm at work on Friday, but still evacuated the building. You should have seen the guys s all suited up and jumping down from the fire engines and EMS. Sigh…too bad every one of them could be one of my kids. 😆 » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 4:26 pm 11 out of 14 = 80%; given I’ve not been to church or studied religion in a very long time, I think I did pretty darn good. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 4:21 pm bito, He’s a player and a partier and, as I think I’ve mentioned before…his eyes, the bags under them, and the swollen nose — used to see it all the time in my father. My father is an alcoholic. One never forgets. » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 4:14 pm From the Columbus Dispatch Sunday 10/10/10 Boehner has plans for ‘his’ House Rep. John Boehner is positively animated about how he’d change daily House processes, but many look at him and see an unlikely reformer. They say he’s too fun-loving — and too tan. 😆 😆 😆 » Posted By boomer1949 On October 10, 2010 @ 7:05 am I’m telling you bito, they’re all off their meds, not to mention their rockers! » Posted By boomer1949 On October 7, 2010 @ 12:25 pm Is there no end to these idiots?

IMO anyone working in rescue is a saint, whether it be child welfare, furry friends rescue, or elder welfare; any instance where the innocent are put in danger. Nothing frosts me more than when I hear, “It’s just a cat”; or dog, or bird, or whatever. Totally sends my blood pressure off the charts. btw – I’m still sniffleing. And, being a gluton for punishment, I will undoubtedly watch this more than once. » Posted By boomer1949 On September 20, 2010 @ 7:22 am Good Monday Morning Everyone! Arrived at work this morning and this was in my Inbox from The Daily Tail — http://www.thedailytail.com I am sure those you in CA have heard of Eldad Hagar and Hope for Paws — http://www.hopeforpaws.org Anyway, I opend the link, the video began, and I am sitting here bawling. I have seen some of his other rescue videos and should have known better 😥 😥 :cry but watched it anyway. Everytime I see one of these, I want to quit my job, pack up, and go West to work with this man and this wonderful organization he has established. Have your tissues handy…
» Posted By boomer1949 On September 20, 2010 @ 6:06 am Yes, for real. However, this was in conjunction to a video PatsyT posted, in conjunction with a video I posted, in response to bito’s thought provoking question. Rather than spill any more kitty litter on Keven’s post about Christopher Hitchens, I walked my furry little paws to OT. 🙂 bito: Is this an opinion that you, boomer and Kalima respect? . me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JuVHCJVYf4 patsyt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg-pMiNiZ_c » Posted By boomer1949 On September 16, 2010 @ 12:00 pm Message sent, message received. It’s all in the how. 🙂
» Posted By boomer1949 On September 16, 2010 @ 5:46 am I borrowed your post bito, because I knew it was too intense for the main page (raw meat and all). Please accept my meows. 😳 *edit* I’ve been sent to moderation. Sigh. » Posted By boomer1949 On September 15, 2010 @ 7:08 pm @Patsy, Seriously, there is something to be said about the raw food thing for cats. I lost one of mine last year to renal failure. After Zoey died, I did an enormous amount of research about the condition. Cats are obligate carnivores. Cats “guts” are much shorter than ours. They do not have the ability to fully digest and utilize the nutrients in plant material. Although theoretically, they might get enough protein from plant material to exist, they need taurine in order to thrive. Taurine is found primarily in the muscle meat of animals, and is most highly concentrated in the heart and liver. In the wild, cats may get a small amount of grain and other plant material from the stomachs of their prey, but our domestic cats really do not need large amounts of grain. Corn is a good example. Corn is a cheap source of protein, and many of the “supermarket brands” of dry cat food are packed with corn in various forms, e.g., corn bran, corn germ meal, ground corn, corn gluten, corn gluten meal. If I could give you one rule of thumb only, it would be to shy away from any cat food containing corn, especially listed at or toward the the top of the ingredients. (Pet food ingredients are generally listed in descending order by dry weight.) It has taken nearly a year to transition my furry friends to moist food, not raw mind you, but moist canned cat food. Some are higher quality and more expensive than others, but according to Dr. Lisa A. Pierson, even the less expensive brands are far better than any dry food.
