Cludgie, I was afraid this would not go well. I think what you REALLY need is a nice little investment property in OR/WA. A little studio apartment you can take off to. MUST be too small for company! Or we can still run away to Northern Italy :)

Creeping up on women in dark parking lots is stupid. There are many other places they can bother people. Go stand in the area in front of the store where there are lights and people can see who you are. Go hang out at the park. Stand on a damn street corner. Go door to door. Creeping around dark parking lots is asking for trouble.

Agree 100%. When a relationship is "come here so I can hit you again" it isn't healthy. Shared biology does NOT mean you are required to have a relationship. I am going through some crap about this too EB. You do what is right for YOU.

LOL of course not if you are in your car. And lethal force is a whole other issue. Your example does not apply. But if you are in a parking lot alone and some guy pops up at you I can sure see pepper spray happening. ExMos, especially those that did their two, may instantly recognize who they are (and have warm fuzzy feelings) but to a lot of people they are just rando dudes. A white shirt a

This isn't about religion but I think it helps to explain why so many of us questioned and left. It also makes the point that information you work for, you value more. Yes, it is a bit simplistic. You can only pack so much into 8 minutes but I thought it might be of interest :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5YmIqYSqA0

I ran into this last night and thought it was well done enough to share. Fear of female independence runs deep. I find it interesting how little thought seems to be done about WHY the woman finds the situation intolerable. Maybe if Adam had not been such an ass, she would not have been willing to sacrifice so much just to get the hell away from him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEF0IPdEm

For me a great book is one I read so many times it falls apart and I have to replace it. And I am very careful with my books! When one of the kids brought a girlfriend home and she was shocked how many we had and couldn't understand why we would read one twice, well, I knew she wasn't a keeper. I often will read a great new book three times back to back. First time for the story, second to sl

I am glad that my little town makes their own electricity. Almost all lines are underground. In 25 years we have only been out for more than an hour twice. The people that work for power live here (for the most part) so they are invested in making sure the lights are on! Our rates are low too. It is one reason we will stay here even when we downsize. Plus, we do our own water and it is deli

Hi Snake :) Everyone pretty much covered things but there are a few things on the front page (exmormon.org) that may be of interest.

Is anyone going to try something new this year? Giving something another shot? I am going to try to add more fiber. So far, I bought some Bob's Red Mill Muesli and we are loving it. Hub eats granola bars at work but he will only eat the Chewy Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate. Sigh. At least one of the few vegetables he will eat is broccoli.
