I'm worried about the pine trees in our yard. I never counted just how many we have until tonight. We have 11 in our side yard and 3 in the front yard. They are all more than twice as tall as our 2-story house.

I just saw this on the local news tonight. I just can't wrap my brain around how someone could forget a child in the car. The news report I saw said there has been 26 deaths this summer from being left in hot cars, with 4 of them being here in Harris County.

This is so sad. My prayers to all the families of those involved in this tragedy.

Comic actor Bernie Mac died early today of complications from pneumonia, according to a family member and his publicist. He was 50. http://www.cnn.com/

I read in your link that downtown Houston has already received an inch of rain today. I'm in the northwest part of the metro area where the sun is still shinning and we haven't received a drop of rain (yet!)

Former White House press secretary Tony Snow has died at the age of 53 after a second battle with cancer. "The Snow family has lost a beloved husband and father," President Bush said in a statement. "And America has lost a devoted public servant and a man of character." http://www.cnn.com/

I totally agree with you, Dean

Allowing unruly children out of their seats can be more than just an inconvenience to be tolerated by other passengers. I was on an early morning flight once where a young child was allowed to run up and down the aisle. A sudden jerk of the plane caused her to fall into me, dumping the cup of...

What a sad tragedy for his family. They will be in my prayers.

I have XP Pro on one computer, XP Home on another, and Vista on my laptop. XP Pro is the best, as far as I'm concerned.

Congratulations to Miss Michigan! Miss Indiana was my favorite.

I don't think it is any more unusual to sell the car than it is to park it and take the keys. I haven't read all of the links, but if she told him he had rules to abide by in order to keep the car and he broke them, then I totally agree with what she did by selling the car. What I do not agree...

No, I never have. But I have witnessed the opposite side. Just a few days ago, I witnessed a lady tell a salesclerk who wished her "Happy Holidays" that she was a Christian that celebrated Christmas and if she could not say Merry Christmas to her then she should just keep her mouth shut. I...

IrishMist, I came back to this thread to ask the very same question. I guess it's true about what they say about "great minds......", lol.

I agree with everything you say, MREG2. But adults should also be able to reason that if I wish them Happy Holidays, I'm not trying to take Christ out of Christmas. I don't want to have to worry that some group is going to boycott my business because I choose to say Happy Holidays to my clients...

If some Christians have realized that Christmas is truly a pagan holiday in disguise, I believe they are wrong. So what if the date coincides with a pagan holiday? Christians are not celebrating a date on the calendar, but an EVENT - the birth of Christ. It shouldn't matter when we celebrate it...

X and XP are ancient Christian abbreviations for Christ's name, so it has never occured to me that seeing or writing Xmas instead of Christmas is taking Christ out of Christmas. Edited to add: Sorry, I didn't read Ember's post before posting.

He was a favorite of mine. Rest in Peace, Dan.

I didn't realize this until today when I got an email from one of the girls I went to high school with, but one of the victims of the shootings was in my high school graduation class.
