If 3 patrol cars speed through town with lights flashing and sirens blaring anytime anyone needs a manager's phone number, that's even worse, sheriff.

Over a freaking whopper! This was totally an abuse of power. I'd love to see what happened to make the employees feel so unsafe that they'd lock the doors.

Stalking. It was a typo.

If someone is attempting to use her card, maybe it's time to talk to police? That's illegal, right?

His mom is in assisted living, not a nursing home. My mom is also in assisted living. She's got a stove in her apartment, she can cook her own meals if she wants to! Until recently, she could drive herself to Walmart if she felt like it. She has decorated her apartment in her own style because--get this--it's her home!!

Plus he hasn't said one thing about pointing a camera at his mother's bathroom!

It is her home. How disheartening to see you think it isn't.

Do not give your senior pet to an animal rescue. I think the mental anguish they'd experience they'd suffer from feeling abandoned would hurt them so, so much.

Do your best. Talk to your vet and ask for guidance.

We all face this, eventually. It is hard to face that our cherished pet is aging, but it's our duty to see them through.

I do not know where I got this from, but I thought all dogs were male and all cats were female. I thought this while I had a dog named Betsy and a cat named Sebastian.

If that's not bad enough on its own, I think I was in first or second grade when I learned the surprising truth. I wasn't a dumb kid, either. I learned to read when I was about 3.5 yrs old and started 1st grade as a 5 yr old.

I'm now in my 70s and I still can't figure out where I got that from!

I love the name Otis. It's such a classic.

Are you living life on your own and making it ok? Are the voices/conversations interfering with what you want or need to do? Are they interfering with your relationships?

That's a lot of questions, but my nephew would have answered No to the first question and Yes to the others. He's a diagnosed schizophrenic, and I'm telling you about him because getting on meds turned his life around. He's working now, has an apartment and is maintaining relationships.

I know it's frightening, but you've had two doctors diagnose you. It might be worth trying the meds. Ask if there are programs that can help you pay.

I hope things work out for you.

Someone called me a libtard under his breath, but loudly enough to make sure I heard...in a CANCER center, where many of us were having our immune systems weakened by chemo.

You can't fix stupid so I don't even try. I've been in remission for almost two years, I'm healthy and he's out there sucking in viruses. We both have ticking clocks, but mine is ticking much more slowly than his is.

It is exactly as quacky as quacks.

That is a rough looking 31. He could easily pass for 5 to 10 years older.

I'm happy they got him and can't wait for him to be held accountable.

When done correctly, this is always the outcome.
