On being fat

Apparently, every single woman on the planet is fat. I weight 115 at 5'4" and in my gardening clothes, I look "fat".

What in the hell propels people to say such things to other people?

And yes, I got told that today, and I work out 3 days a week.

Should I weigh 80 lbs.? No, then I'm "too skinny".

It's an ugly barb that people throw to shame people.

Crazy ants - broke the A/C

by building a nest on the contacts. I thought it was lack of freon - no it was a wad of tawny crazy ants that when they receive an electric shock, send out a pheromone to summon more crazy ants. It results in a big nest of ants that have a substance that prevents conductivity and the acid that fire ants produce.

Whacky, I know, but it happened to me. I'm on the Gulf Coast, and I've read up on these little invasive bugs from South America, but I didn't think too much of them. They can defeat our FIRE ants because they are impervious to the acid and shorts out electronics when they are there.

Get rid of them before they get rid of you.

Ceramic Pocket knives

Anyone used these? My old reliable needs to be replaced. I need something about 3 1/2 inches, but mostly used for cutting boxes, etc.

I'm thinking about this for the sharpness and light quality.

Just plain, useful and very sharp.

This "Nader" talking point is convenient

but you are placing the blame in the wrong lap.

Had Al Gore actually fought the counting of votes, he would have been President. I was in Florida in 2000. That was the most crooked election and counting of votes in industrialized countries. Blaming Nader is convenient, but Gore is the one that all of you should be pointing the finger at. Harris is crooked as a barrel of snakes, everyone knew it at the time, but Al Gore just gave up quietly. In retrospect, it makes me wonder what they had on him.

Nader is convenient because he is used to say "See, this is what happens when you don't vote for a Democratic candidate even if you can't hardly recognize the D in him/her except for the attachment at the end of their name, and what happens when you naysay the policies of the third way!".

The reality is that Gore folded like an accordion when he should have fought the decision. You have to ask yourself why. I know I do, because I fucking voted for the man, my girlfriend voted for the man and we dragged other people to the polls to vote for the man.

Your talking point is invalid. Too many of us GOTV in Florida for Gore, but he threw in the towel without a fight. So NO. I don't blame Nader - I didn't vote for him. I blame GORE for not stepping up to the plate for whatever reason.

I won't entertain the idea of anybody else that cries NADER when Gore was his own worst enemy by not fighting the decision, and neither should any other good Democrat. I don't have to be in love with third way to be a Democrat, and I can vote for Democrats that I want to vote for. That does NOT make me a Nader lover, since I didn't vote for the SOB in the first place.
