Thursday, April 3, 2003I like it, I really like itI like the proposal for the VAT-style national sales tax for one simple reason: it's much fairer in the long run than the current setup. The reason why it's much fairer than the current setup is that we all eat. Yes, the rich person probably buys different things than what the poor person might buy,...

Frankly, I don't expect that this blog will make it into the "best" category, for a very good reason. Much of the work I put on this blog is from the old days at...

No, I don't mean we should stuff a suitcase full of hundreds whenever we go to pay for a house, or hand our favorite auto dealer an envelope full of twenties when we...

I ought to know - I have a teenager in the house, and she watches a lot of MTV. Much of the programming borders on softcore porn, and of course I do make her flip off that. (Of course, this is the same child that runs screaming from the...

My daughter had to be born by c-section for a very good reason. She was what the docs call a...

Did you know: 1. That you can't drink grapefruit juice AT ALL when you take cyclosporine? 2. That you can't wash Depakote down with grapefruit juice? 3. That some prescription...

Although veterinarians are just now getting the technology to save animals which would have been put to sleep when Alameda East was founded, human biomedical ethics is now where veterinary...

I would wholeheartedly recommend reading Solomon's material; he's come up with some real goodies lately. Words really do backfire on us - we need only make our words sweet, because we may end up having to eat them one day. Thanks for reading Solomon's blog!

To those who have no idea what the heck I'm talking about, click on the words " this blog " and read Maralite's most recent post in that blog. You said a mouthful, and I agree with you completely.

Now, I could post this in my blog on abuse and relationships, but I chose to post it here - it's a judgment call, pure and simple. But I am frustrated. I wonder about something - my inability to help deliver consequences to my former partner. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I...
