What to do....

It is I again,the Farmgirl Agoraphobic. I too,tend to collect too much stuff. My cabin is small,and I love EVRYTHING,from dog statues to vintage kitchen items,to spatterware,and on and on.ALL HAIL EBAY! I also love to restore old,wooden furniture,and have tons of it stored up,waiting to be worked on.I try to whittle it down every now and then,but get discouraged,and quit before getting a lot of it done.

     I have tried to find somewhere to donate things to and believe it or not,have gotten nowhere! I have boxes of beautiful,plus-size,ladies clothing,some of it still with the tags on.So,I thought maybe a womens' shelter or homeless shelter would be thrilled to have these things.Wrong. No response from anyone I contacted. I want to know where the stuff is going,not just toss it in a clothing box at the gas station,you know? I live very close to Albany,NY and Pittsfield,Mass.,so you would think there would be a need somewhere! Any suggestions out there? Help me gain space,PLEASE!       Joanna

OJ-Oh Brother!!!

FINALLY,justice is served! I have the show on right now,and the Black woman in the audience who is mouthing off about the 2 women being excluded from the jury due to race,should get real! The ONLY reason OJ got off the first time was due to race! There are not enough SWAT teams in the USA to control the outcry of the black communities when a black criminal with any notoriety is convicted of a crime! Blacks will riot with little or no provocation,and they were just WAITING for the jury to DARE to convict OJ.

    I am SICK and TIRED of the race card always coming into play! You do the crime,you do the time,black,white,green or purple,I don't give a rats' a--! Blacks are NO longer a minority in this country,and it is well past time to take away that label that gives them so much voice and so many freebies and excuses. Let them make their own way and be responsible for their own mistakes and situations,it is overdue. Wanna help needy minorities? How about the NATIVE AMERICANS who live in poverty,alcoholism and rampant diabetes? Who is more deserving?

    Get over it,black community,and GROW UP! Thank you NAACP and ACLU for making them so dependent on handouts and the book of excuses!

NO Gay Marriage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is going on in this country!?!? NO ONE has any right to "amend" the Constitution,for starters.It IS what it IS,PERIOD! Now,for what God has to say about homosexuality? He says,"NO WAY!"  It is a perversion and a sin,no room for argument. I believe in free choice as granted to all people by God and the Constitution. If two men or two women choose to have an intimate relationship,they are free to do so,unmolested by society. It is the couple who will have to live with thier decision and the eventual consequences of that decision,and it is no ones' business what they do behind closed doors. BUT, do NOT tell our children that gay marriage is acceptable,it most certainly is NOT!

       This country is in the mess it's in BECAUSE of amoral behavior and the excuses that Liberals have made for it. I don't care if you were BORN that way,or not,it is immaterial to the fact that it is NOT acceptable,NOT moral,NOT normal and NOT pleasing to God. Any church or clergy that claims to be Christian yet sanctions or performs gay marriage needs to be brought to account for thier hippocracy,if not by Moral Americans,then God will take care of them when the time comes for judgement.

     So far as Church and State goes,gays feel that the church needs to keep its' nose out of state business and out of thier lives. Yet,it is acceptable for the State to tell Pastors that they cannot speak to thier congregations about politics or candidates without losing thier tax exemption status?!?!? So,the State can gag ministers in the name of so-called,"Fairness", but the church cannot object to perversion?

    Wake up,people! Your country and its' people are going to Hell in a handbasket and the only people who seem to care are the Christians,the TRUE Christians,not the wanna-be,know-nothings like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton,who give REAL Christians a bad name. We are now facing a Socialist America under Obama,and we must stand together to preserve our freedoms,our Constitutuional Rights as they were originally written,and the MORAL FIBER of America that has been so savagely attacked by the Liberal Left in the past few decades. If America and its' Constitution and Ten Commandments offend you so deeply,it is still a free country,you are FREE to leave! If not,get off your dead bottoms and SPEAK UP against liberals and thier "if it feels good,do it",mentality!! Gay marriage? NO-NO-NO!!!

No,young lady,no...

Quote From: courteustace

I think everyone who is against same sex marriage needs to re-think this again. If all parents are worried about is there children getting tought about same sex marriage in the class room then you have problems.  All you guys are thinking about is yourselves. If you dont like the how a teacher is teaching then go to the school and get your kid out of that class.
 You were all given the right to marry someone you love. And you were all given the right to be parents and have families. Same sex couples are still humans. they all still people. And they deserve the chance to be happy. They deserve the chance to have a family, and be accepted in there communities. I am all aboard for same sex marriges. I have friends who like the same gender, and really these people arent any differnt. they all speak the same language as we do. they all look the same, no on looks like an alien.
  Ellen Degeneres is an amazing women. No one has shut her show down. A lot of people like her. I didnt know that she was in a same sex relationship. That didnt change my opinon about her.
  So really, start thinking and come up with a better reason to be against same sex marriages. This is an on going fight for rights. And its not going to stop.
  I might only be just a teenager who every thinks doesnt get the right idea about this, but i do. and nobody can change the way people feel. If someone has feelings for someone in the same sex, then all the power to them !.

Dear Courtney,  We have,in fact,removed our grandaughters from public school as a direct result of Liberal teachers,and they now attend Christian school. America was founded and flourished as a direct result of the Bible and Gods' Commandments and word. It is the Manual for Life,and any question or doubt or fear you ever experience,can be found there. The Constitution was written to ensure Americas' freedoms and for the protection of its' people from all enemies,INCLUDING our own Government!  Unfortunately,our government today treats this essential document like a sheet of toilet paper,and as a result of that,and the many people who care only for themselves and NOT for the good of ALL,America has become the laughing stock of the world.

     Our once strong,proud country is now a melting pot of hate and selfishness and crime,and sexual perversion that has profound ripple-effects on every aspect of American life. Homosexuality is a choice some people make,and yes,they are free to do so in America and it is thier business and no one elses,. However,it is still perverted and gross,and plainly stated in the Bible as a SIN. Period. God destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because of such sexual perversion. Gay marriage is NOT okay. If Americans do not stand up for morality very soon,it will be too late and there will be no hope for salvation of a great many human souls.

      I don't know what your spiritual beliefs are,or if you believe at all.I DO ask you,as a favor to a Nana of two girls like you,to PLEASE read the Constitution and the Mayflower Compact,and discuss them with your friends,family and teachers. If you are not familiar with the Bible,ask someone who is,to show you what the Bible says about Homosexuality and anything else you have questions about. Just for your own information,if for no other reason. Young folks like you are the hope for Americas' future,and you MUST be informed.

                                God Bless!   Nana JJ

Ummm....

Quote From: nursebecky1156

I watch Dr. Phil almost everyday when I am home and I found myself unable to watch the episode on same-sex marriage. Those of the debaters that were against gay marriage infuriated me and made it near impossible to watch. The fact that these people believe that they have any right in designating who can marry and who can not, is unfathomable. I went to Catholic School and went to church every sunday when I was little, and was smart enough to know that marriage is only worth-while and withstanding when it is based on love. Yes, in heterosexual or traditional marriages, procreation is possible, but we as a human race have come so far in regards to medical science and adoption, and I do not believe that we can be so narrow minded as to think that same sex marriages cannot have and raise a very happy and functional child. Love is the foundation to any good marriage, I see no relevance of the government or religion in creating a long lasting healthy marriage, so why do we allow it to come into play? If two people love each other, not a single person in the world should have the right to decide whether or not they can marry. You cannot decide who you fall in love with and nor should you have to, if you love someone and want to spend your life with them, then you should have the freedom to do so, not in a civil union, but as a marriage. God put us here to love our brothers and sisters, to care for our neighbours and to be good people. I am unsure if when God looks down at his children, and sees those who are against gay marriage, that he is proud of them. These people are forcing their beliefs and insecurities on the rest of the world, they are stiffling the love and the lives of people who merely want to live full happy lives and love those who they wish to love. If we are of the belief that God is creating us, then by saying that gay marriage is wrong, as is homosexuality, then are those people not saying that God himself is wrong? The Bible was written thousands of years ago, much different from our time, so is it not clear that these stories are lessons, that we are supposed to see meaning from them not put them literally into practice in our lives? If those who love are able to unite and create loving families and raise healthy children, be good to their neighbours, be caring and empathetic for those around them, and to be good people, then they have been successful children in the eyes of God, right? So then I ask you, does it matter or change anything, if that couple that fostered so much love was in a same sex marriage? No, it doesn't and it shouldn't. People have every right to love and they should have the right to show that love through the greatest and most with-standing expression, marriage.
Typical Catholic outlook! Ever open a Bible?
