GO BROOKE!!!! Fantastic dance!! Drew's freestyle is still my all-time favorite, but that ranks up there pretty close!!! WOOHOO!!!! I'll be glad when The Lacey Show is over. Carrie Ann said it best in TV Guide this week when she said it was hard to see Lance because Lacey is focused on...

While I think it was wrong that nobody at the school offered her something, I agree with this. She had the "breakfast" sticker on her bag, so like someone else said... obviously the mom cares. I don't think I've eaten breakfast in thirty years! I know my mom used to try anything and...

All three New York teams won yesterday :p

I am so sick and tired of people on this board telling me what is and isn't worth my time. Well, I read yesterday that they are hoping to do a movie. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a made-for-TV or a theatrical release. That sounds promising :thumbsup2 I think more than anything...

How's that a debate? I said nobody in her family considers themselves to be African American. Unless you know them and can say otherwise, I fail to see where the debate comes in. I'm so sorry to waste your time. In the future, perhaps you can hand out the approved "items worth...

But again, why is that your employer's fault?

That's very true.... I guess in some ways, the government and all the demographic studies perpetuate the need for labeling. We should all just check "other" :) (The baby in your sig is absolutely adorable!)

I don't care how Obama refers to himself. That wasn't my point. Because of comments on the other thread, I was just thinking about my niece and how it would hurt my brother if she called herself black. I also think there's a huge difference between comparing the race of your distant...

I'm not saying you can't literally notice it... but I think it should be noticed in the sense that you notice the color of someone's sweater. That it doesn't make a shred of difference about anything. It is what it is. As for weight...well... I wish we didn't put so much emphasis on that...

Thanks... that's all I'm really trying to say!

Blessedly, we aren't living in that society anymore, though. We've come so far from that. The next step is to not notice (or care) at all.

Whatever. I said I wasn't going to engage. You expect us to understand your POV but you refuse to see someone else's. Have a nice day.

My parents will be away for Christmas, so we're celebrating on New Year's. I'll go to my sister's house for Christmas and her daughter will open her Santa gifts; we'll do everything else when my parents get back. Both of my brothers and their kids are always away for every holiday...

You don't need to "simplify" anything. I'm not a child who doesn't understand. Her skin is darker than someone who isn't completely white. But it probably will not be how she defines herself. She wasn't raised that way, by either of her parents. The way I would describe him if he...

I guess I just don't understand why you need to call in sick/gay/whatever to accomplish this. Why is it my employer's fault? If it's important enough to do all those other things (volunteer, support businesses, etc)... shouldn't it be important enough to do it on your own time instead of...

This is the best thread :thumbsup2

Just a disclaimer: This is meant with the utmost respect... if someone wants a fight, I'm not going to engage. I started reading the thread about the school that was renamed for Barack Obama. I stopped reading after it turned into a discussion on whether or not he should consider...

A Boyfriend for Christmas :) I also love Elf and all the animated movies.... including ones I haven't seen in YEARS. The best one was about a little girl who was in a wheelchair and the animals in the woods helped her decorate the Christmas tree. If anyone knows the name of this, I will be...

Okay, but when you're already done that and they cancel it anyway the viewers still want to do something. It worked for other shows, I'm hoping it can work for this one. The last episode that was filmed is supposed to be a huge cliffhanger. At the very least, I think the fans deserve to...

Umm... pretty sure there's nothing in my employee handbook that covers "calling in gay". I don't think most employers would allow you to use your sick time for that. Besides, it seems counterintuitive to me. Why would you want "being gay" to be the same as "being sick and unable to work"?
