thongs???!!!????
Comments (8)Oh yea, I saw the thongs alright. I was so excited I clicked on it to see more. But, damn it, nothing came up. It showed a very healthy male body, in 3 pictures, wearing 3 different thongs (front view) - looked like Speedos actually - and the ad wanted you to click on the one that looked the funniest. I thought they all looked great, though one did have a picture of fruit, including grapes, on it. Wish I saw that on the beach. Anyway, it was an ad for a certain American television station that's trying to find out what people consider funny. Like I said before, I clicked on the fruity thong and couldn't get through to the site. Sigh. Guess I gotta keep on thinking about winter-sowing....See MoreLyndon Lyon Greenhouse Issues
Comments (3)Lori - Lyndon Lyon greenhouses were in business for so long, have such a great reputation - so I wouldn't be doubting them because of the petrocosmea error. About your credit card - the easiest way to get the info stolen - is to give your card to the waitress to pay for your meal in a cafe. And we do it all the time. You just hope for the best - and keep all your receipts stashed - and check every mothly statement. And they will still steal it. But if you catch it on time - the credit card company will compensate it. I got hit twice. Second time - the thief was using my card info to pay her phone bills, insurance and what not. Credit card company never even bothered to investigate this genius lady - they just compensated me. Best Luck and You Did Your Checking!!! Irina...See MoreTelling secrets....
Comments (37)oakley, given the few times you get together, she may not feel that close to you...not close enough to want to share a traumatic event. You must be very careful as she may not want anyone to know and you could hurt, embarrass her, or worse if she caught on that you knew. She may still be too wounded to discuss it. Or she may be trying to get beyond it. You just don't know and you certainly don't want to cause her more pain. Remember too that you are in the "shock" stage of the news as you just heard it...this is old news to her as she's been dealing with it 5 years already...it is not fresh for her at all and she may not want someone fresh to it picking at her scabs. About the only thing you can do is let her know that you are her friend, that you care for her, and are willing to lend a strong shoulder and a tender heart should she ever need or want that. Beyond that, it is really up to her to choose what to do and to set the pace. My gf had completed her chemo treatments but was still wearing a kerchief due to hair loss. She complained to me that this stranger on a plane noticed, asked her about her cancer, and shared his own cancer story. I'm sure he meant well...often strangers tell more than they would otherwise as they think it's a safe place to reveal their story...to someone they will never see again...but she felt violated. She was at the stage where she had kissed her cancer good riddance and was trying to move beyond it and really didn't need a reminder or want or need his tale. So you just don't know and it's best to let the other person set the pace and tell the tale how much or if at all. Be a friend to her and just forget that you even heard about it....See MoreThere should be a law - companies selling your personal info
Comments (6)I don't mind the grocery store ID card. If they want to know what I buy then go right ahead, be my guest, dig through my receipts and figure it all out. I don't mind getting a discount on my groceries either and at my local store they have a gas station out front where I get a nickle off of each gallon of gas I buy simply because I have one of those cards. They really only want marketing info. It isn't to track down what you have hidden in your cabinets or down in your basement. "You" don't matter all that much. They want to know which brands get picked over other brands, and what happens if we put it up on the high shelf, or over at the end of the row - does any of this make more people buy it??? Most of my friends just give out false addresses and phone numbers anyway - the stores know this. Like I said, their marketing survey doesn't really need accurate personal info just what you buy and how often you buy it. As consumers get more and more savvy on how info is shared and how products are force fed to us, most of those marketing tricks start to fail - the day will come that people will only fall for a sales pitch the first time and then punish the company for hounding them by never buying from that company again. I have a long list of companies I refuse to do business with and whenever I get the chance to bad mouth them I do it. It usually shuts them up....See More- 11 years ago
