Society & Lifestyle > Personal Morals & Values Living with the past

10 of 204

When I was getting divorced, and fighting a drug case in court facing a lot of time in the state correctional institution my first thoughts were to run. I did just that, not run on my responsibilties, but I ran from having to face who I had become at 30 years old. I'd ran a muck since I was a teen. I've pretty much been ther... More..

Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms Our next generation: Are things getting better or worse?

17 of 202

On the surface it would appear that things are on a upswing from the past. In all honesty you'd have to look at the entire picture here before actually saying things are improving. Yes, there are technilogical improvements that make our lives seem easier, and the nation is moving itself towards healthier eating habits or so ... More..

Home & Garden > Home Repair (Other) Kitchen remodeling horror stories

1 of 7

As we moved into our second home after selling our first home we knew that a kitchen remodel was well overdue. We had our plan all together, and the new appliances were on order, some of which were back ordered or were to never show up at all. What we knew was that we hated the 1960's Brady Bunch appeal that the entire home ... More..

Society & Lifestyle > Personal Morals & Values Challenging authority

3 of 10

Who's to say that authority is not to be challenged? I have been challenging authority my entire life. Sometimes I win, sometimes I loose. I stand by my convictions though, at all costs. Nothing in life will be fair, there's always a winner and loser the winner usually becomes the authority over the loser, or so we'd all lik... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Climate Change Predicting the end of the world from global warming

10 of 29

Global warming is just a indication of the state our planet is in. It's slowly on it's way out and is going to take us with it. Changes are happening more rapidly than predicted by the scientists that monitor the polar ice caps and the holes in the atmosphere above them. More and more floating ice bergs are seen in our shipp... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Police & Prisons Are the police violating the law when tasering an unarmed citizen?

12 of 33

Yes...Yes...Yes... Our nations police have time and again violated the rights of citizens in many ways, but the use of tasers on suspects is used at times when it is unnecessary. My case in point; a brother of mine who rides with the same motorcycle club as I do was killed this year in a motel room in front of his wife as th... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Police & Prisons Problems of harassment in law enforcement: Why you should report bad cops

9 of 22

Well, this is something that I've been dealing with personally for most my life. Living in the same county I grew up in and have gotten in trouble in from time to time the cops pretty much know me. For the most part there's really nothing I can say about the local police, it's the Sheriffs of this county that are worthless. ... More..

Politics, News & Issues > Political Issues Are high taxes on cigarettes fair?

29 of 66

I smoke. So what? To punish me for what I choose to do at a rate that unequals any other taxed items sold here in the United States is beyond me. I hear all the time that society pays for the victims of smoking or other arguments ranging from second hand smoke, all the way to it causes cancer that puts the victim in the care... More..

Home & Garden > Gardening (Other) True gardening stories: How it all went terribly wrong (humor)

63 of 140

If you've ever gardened or helped someone with an average size vegetable garden you know it's not the easiest thing to do. I myself can honestly say I can't grow anything. My hunter and gathering instincts are what I'd have to rely on if we didnt have grocery stores. My mother however, bless her heart, as she's one hell of a... More..
