Sleepwalking more common than thought, research shows
Mon May 14, 2012
- Parasomniac myself. Walk, talk, eat and occasionally uh, well, have sex during my sleep. All four of my boys have inherited it. They all talk and walk in their sleep so far.
Does it pay to be a warehouse club member?
Sun Apr 22, 2012
- I have a Sam's membership. Need it with four boys. I am there nearly every weekend buying perishables and "stocking up" every month and 2x a year (spring/fall) on different items. Sam's Club saves me a LOT of money.
Deputies: Texas mother-shooter snatched baby to hide miscarriage
Wed Apr 18, 2012
- She is estranged from her husband (with whom she had 3 children with), but was planning a May wedding with another male, who she was supposedly pregnant by? Estranged doesn't mean divorced. It means separated.
Woolly mammoth caught on video? It looks fishy
Thu Feb 9, 2012
- He borrowed my cell phone, obviously. *laugh* I knew the "camera" would come in handy. Takes 15 seconds of video at a time. Sorry folks (I said I didn't want a camera phone). It is just a bear with a good catch of the day. Any Alaskan can see that.

- Yes - June is a great time to come up. If you're heading to Anchorage (where I'm at), then the snow will be gone by June, except for higher elevations and glaciers. Depending on what you want to fish for, and where you'd like to go, there are options.
Forced abortion for a mentally ill woman? No way, says Mass. appeals court
Thu Jan 19, 2012
- *sigh* Look, I have to look at this from many angles. She has already had one abortion and one child, that her parents are raising as their own. She is now being cared for by her parents. She is on heavy medications to attempt to regulate her mental illness(es).
Questions linger in US soldier's death: Was it a game?
Wed Jan 11, 2012
- Thank you for your service alphabet26. You (and the military) still have my support. I wear my military lineage proudly.
New e-book pricing scheme a surprising assault on the wallet
Thu Dec 15, 2011
- Never got into the e-book fad. I prefer the satisfaction and sound of smacking someone with my leatherbound edition of the Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It's just not the same when you smack someone with an e-reader. Plus, you're out $200 because you've damaged the equipment.
Hottest woman of all time! Jennifer Aniston?
Fri Dec 9, 2011
- If you're going there - then Madeline Kahn too :) And "Hedley" was a male, Heddy is a female. We're talking gorgeous women, not jerky characters.
What to say, and what NOT to say, to a woman who's had a miscarriage
Fri Dec 9, 2011
- I have four kids, and I've had many miscarriages. The worst always came from my disapproving family who felt that I should have stopped at one child. I wouldn't tell my family about a pregnancy until I hit my second trimester. The two that I miscarried after I hit that mark were terrible.

Questions & Answers

Itty bitty cocktail police: Kids, don't be a buzzkill
Yes, and I don't hide it.
Moms' picks for best and worst celebrity baby names
Declan
Yes, we spoil our kids: 6,000 moms come clean
Less spoiled than most. Other people's kids are way more spoiled than mine.
Babies with knives? Co-sleeping ad angers some parents
Yes
Crib notes: Is it OK to post pics of other people's kids online?
No, you should have the parents' permission
Want another bedtime story, sweetie? Here's one: 'Go the F@#k to Sleep'
I am too sleep-deprived to decide what to think
Pregnancy pains that won't go away: What's your experience?
I recovered pretty quickly after giving birth, and haven't had any lingering pains
- 1-3 OK. With my 4th my hips healed crooked and so I ruptured 3 discs in my lower back. Needed a brace, injections and soon, fusion surgery.
What do you think of the 'twiblings' story?
I think it's great
Would you induce labor in the final weeks of pregnancy?
- Out of four successful pregnancies, I have been induced twice. My first son was induced. They insisted my due date was May 1st of that year, and by my calculations, and the sonogram, there was no way that could be possible. They induced me 15 days after my due date, and I'm glad they did.
Is it appropriate for Bristol Palin to campaign against teen pregnancy?
I don't think her example will help other girls. If anything, it will teach them that you become a celebrity if you have a baby as a teen.
- Here's my take: I was a teen mother myself. I don't want to see some well-to-do 19 year old from a well-off family with admittedly a bunch of support to be the face of anti-teen pregnancy ads. I want them to show the homeless teens. The ones who dropped out of school and work minimum wage jobs.
