No need to apologize, Lori. We've all been there; sleep deprived, short-tempered, angry. In fact if you do a search on it, you'll find you have lots of company.

Things will get better for you!! Hang in there!

I simply related an article in the current Reader's Digest & you jumped all over it. I'm not going to argue with you because I have found that people like you can't see any one elses point of view anyway, you simply want to vent, argue, spew, whatever. So here's hoping that you will be blessed with some peace in your life so that you don't feel compelled to rant over a simple article & attack someone who simply typed it. The article was worth thinking about, whether you think it was valid or not. And thank you to the people who actually saw my post for what it was, a simple typing of an article in a magazine (which I DO like, by the way), not intended to cause a ruckus for sure. That's one of the reasons I don't frequent chat boards. There are too many people who would rather spew hatred than actually get to know someone or actually READ the posts. I am finding a lot of good information here & will ignore the "ignerants". And again Irving, I'm sorry your life is so bad. We all have trials of one kind or another, but life is much more fulfilling & enjoyable if we can find the blessings in each day.

Well Lori, YOU need to lighten up. My comment was about the Readers Digest article. Not you. You took a bit of my sarcastic humor about readers Digest dumbing down their facts and twisted it. Your comment was about
ME . I have a great life . I enjoy it. I have nothing against overweight people as I am currently fighting that neverending battle with my scale. If I offended anyone I apologize. I stand by my comment about Readers Digest.
I'm answering this on Monday because I had other things to do for the weekend. Like spend it with my friends and family. YOU need to get a life!

The really scary part about this is that you are a teacher. Filling our kids heads with your Hate. What do you do to your students that disagree with you? Fail them. Send them to detention. I know , you fabricate a story to get them suspended. Thats what you did to me.

Oh by the way. I also have 3 jobs. One of them is teaching

Don't worry about me Lori. I can handle it.

I've been on cpap nearly 4 years. It works!

Honestly Irving the fact that you were being sarcastic about readers digest did not come through in your original post. In my initial read I was a bit taken back by the seeming attack on Lori and her post. Your follow-on post didn't offer any clarity to me, and then the next couple follow-on posters seemed to pile on with criticism.

The fact is, by criticising a reference someone provides, you in effect do criticise the person who offered it up, especially if that person thought the information in the reference was valuable.

I vote for calling it a big misunderstanding and letting it drop.

Thats OK by Me. Like I said . I apologize if it offended anyone. I guess I should have used more of my emoticon buddies.

Now. What was that remark about wasting $ on small town America.
