    Striptease Aerobics anyone???

    OK, I'll admit it...I bought 2 of Carmen's striptease aerobics videos. IMO....they are horrible. To even refer to this as "aerobics" is laughable. And to say that you can actually lose weight using the videos....uh, no. They didn't get my heartrate up...the moves were very basic and boring...

    Evidence of Harm -- Mercury in Vaccines?? ADD, ADHD, &...

    Just want to correct some misinformation here....about being able to go to public schools. There are exemptions to every rule. And it wouldn't be "public" if they are able to keep certain groups of children out. As far as vaccines go, a parent can get either a medical, philosophical or personal...
