  Help! I've fallen and I can get up on my own but I'm going to sue because I'm embarrassed.

  Who knew it was her? Only the lady who fell and the people she told. So, her *humiliation* was manufactured.

  Self-induced humilation has no place in a courtroom.

  Throw the idiot out. She deserves what she got.

  On a side note: I was walking through a Marshall Fields store in Chicago and they had huge, very clean glass separating the areas. I didn't see one as I was walking, looking straight ahead. Didn't own a cell phone. Guess what I did?

  Yeah, face first. Bounced off, fell to the ground, got up, looked around, horrified I was such a dummy and went home. Just thought of that when Beks mentioned the glass. At least I didn't break it.

  BTW, I was humiliated. Did I sue? What do you think?

  Oops!

  This lady sounds like a JW mother. No sleep overs, no play dates, calls her kids names, etc.

  Anyone hear about her parenting style?

  Link above is for state laws regarding first cousins marrying.

  Personally I wouldn't want to marry any of my cousins. (shudder) (ewww)

  I think that there is a reason the majority US states figured out that close family members should not *reproduce*. Think about it. Try not to use Awake magazine logic.

  I Got Called By One of the Elders Yesterday (I think)

  let me start by saying that the congregation i was in split into two congregations long ago.

  let's just say i was in "north" and i know everyone from "south" but i have actually never ever set foot in "south's" kingdom hall.. so my cell phone rings and displays a local call, but not a name.

  that means it's not a stored number.
