Good story!— May 18, 2009 3:34 p.m.
Dog Days of Doom
My friend has been volunteering with the Baja Animal Sanctuary for years and has spoken of electrocutions.— May 18, 2009 3:24 p.m.
Dog Days of Doom
The sad thing is, I've heard that euthanasia is not done as humanely as it's done here--by tranqing first. I've heard they electrocute them anally, or worse.— May 18, 2009 10:56 a.m.
It's That Time of the Year -- Yearbook Controversy
Something is wrong with parents who go after the school instead of the kid. It was irresponsible on the school's part, but my daughter woud never do this, partly because she's been raised right and partly because she knows she'd be dead meat.— May 17, 2009 8:56 p.m.
Your Son is Student of the Month? My Son is on American Idol!
Adam, if you're out there, my song pick for you would be "Sweet Child O'Mine" by Guns N' Roses. That'd be hot, hot, hot!— May 16, 2009 10:47 p.m.
Your Son is Student of the Month? My Son is on American Idol!
Twelve top contestants x seven previous seasons = 84. Subtract 4 and that leaves 80 careers that have crashed and burned, not counting the fact that Kelly had a tour cancelled due lack of ticket sales. I wouldn't give two nickels to see any of them.— May 16, 2009 12:51 a.m.
Neighborhood Blog Contest
This story had such a freak beginning. I talked to "Ken," which I hadn't done for awhile. We were talking about the old days and memories of when we first met came up. When I hung up, I sat down and took about 15 minutes to write it. I thought it was trash, but posted it for shock value. When I was notified that I won, the editor had to tell me what won. I didn't think I had anything in the running. Go figure... Thanks for the comment, mommajay. It must have had an impact for you to bother to post.— May 15, 2009 1:57 p.m.
Your Son is Student of the Month? My Son is on American Idol!
If my friggin'house was on fire, I wouldn't leave if Adam was on T.V. As far as I'm concerned, he's the only star who has ever been on the show. The rest are just contestants. That's why most crash and burn. Adam is savvy. He knows what it takes to make it. He's had some hits and misses, but he's always been interesting. It's like Randy said, he's a little Elvis, a little twilight guy, I've even seen a hint of Freddy Mercury. I can't wait 'til his album comes out. I'll be there at the front of the line.— May 15, 2009 1:39 p.m.
Searching for San Diego's Sea Turtles and a Job
Hey Nasreen! Isn't it amazing how the people like jmc (on my blog)among others haven't done squat in the Reader and yet they are authorities on what makes a good story? How embarrassing for them! They really should have enough class not to let their jealousy show. They are making themselves look small. I can't wait to read your next one!— May 14, 2009 8:24 p.m.
