    So...IFBB champion Kelly Ryan may be a murderer.

    From the story: "(Titus) was really nice and every time they went somewhere, he always waved," a neighbor of the couple said" How do they always manage to find one neighbor that says how nice and normal the killer was? As for Ryan, I was surprised to find out she was only 33 years old...

    Anyone carve out their pumpkins yet?

    *Sigh* I live in Florida. We can't carve them until the 31st because with our heat and humidity they grow "black fuzz" and attract little fyling critters in one day. Its still fun, though.

    O/T - Happiness or Security?...LONG

    Hi, this may not be the answer you are looking for, but have you considered counseling? Even if you are not married it could help. You could go alone to determine what attracts you to Mr. Not-So-Secure (some people like the "adventure" of never having a commitment, I'm not saying this is your...

    Those last 10 lbs are a struggle...need advice

    divagirl: I've been using the 1600 balanced slim down custom plan from Mybeachbody.com. It is free for the 1st 30 days and then $5 per month after. (You do have to sign up with a credit card, so I don't know how easy it is to cancel, since I haven't used up my 1st month yet.) It has helped me...

    RE: Appalled With How Federal Government Handled Katrin... I think that discussing this event is very important. It would be convenient to just blame the feds (and I am sure there will be blame on that level) but it does no good to ignore how government completely lost it on all levels, not...

    Why rebuild New Orleans?

    Actually, you never notice the pumps. The canals and levies, yes, but never pumps. I always thought the weather (humid in a way that hits you like a soft hot wet sponge and a constant drizzling rain most of the time) would be what would keep me out of NO. Plus, between the food (heaven) and...

    RE: Appalled With How Federal Government Handled Katrin... For anyone interested: This book, Isaac's Storm by Eric Larson, did more to change my DH and my cavalier attitude about hurricanes, evacuating and preparing for them than Hurricane Betsy, Camille (my DH lived through those as a boy)...

    Why rebuild New Orleans?

    Yes, it is part of our heritage. It could be restored a little more intelligently, though. My MIL left there last year and even with the hurricane, she's still not glad she left! You can take the girl out of the Crescent City but you can't take the Big Easy out of her! People in New...

    Family okay, but lost everything in Hurricane

    Sandra: I'm sorry for your loss and hope the future is brighter. We also have family who lost everything (4 houses so far), but thankfully not their lives! I know it will be hard but you will make it and so will our family. Take care.
