That's a terrible thing. No one should ever have to buy their child. *sigh*
It is something I never allow myself to truly consider. I have 3 kids (they're 18, 11, and 7) and man... it's just not a thing I can put into my head, yanno?
You take care up there... snow! Woah... it's still all hot and humid down here!
Have a good weekend!

Sorry to hear you are disappointed with the way the nat'l campaign is going... Maybe I haven't been following as closely as you but I think she is holding her own very well against viscous attacks from the left. I really haven't heard anything but praise from the right, folks like Newt, Rush and other pundits...
I'm still waiting to hear more from her on things like privacy, freedoms, and other libertarian leaning views but I imagine she might be waiting until after the election to let that part of herself shine through, which is a shame. Sometimes you need to get your foot in the door first I suppose...
Anyway, hope you are having a great weekend my friend!

Nice to hear from you again.
I see that y’all from up there in the big AL state have livened up the political scene a bit. Good! It definitely needs it considering what our other choice is ....
In case you can’t guess, she’s got my vote ....
School is becoming a bit stressful – it’s not easy being the world’s oldest graduate student (well, maybe) and also working 40 hours/week – but I should be out in about a year. I’m still not quite sure why I’m doing it. I guess maybe I think that “Doctor” will look good on my tombstone ....
Anyway, stay warm up there. We just crossed that magic Fall date and I expect it will get a hell of a lot colder up there than it does here.
Later,
Len (aks STS)

Pretty good place. I live close to downtown historical SP. Not far from the Weymouth Center. Jack sent me an email in regard to you being from here. Have a great one.

The 'deer in the headlights' analogy MAY actually be true here (bear with me).
I think her stumbling performances in tv interviews is NOT because of any mental deficiencies. My thought is that she's simply 'star struck'.
Think about it a moment. Going from a 'local' celebrity to 'national' celebrity literally overnight.
Now she finds herself interviewed by the 'stars' of tv news.
Putting myself in her postition, I'd be thinking, "OMG!! I'm talking to Katie Couric!! (or whomever)"
THAT, I think is her problem at the moment. Maybe she'll finally get over it tonight and we can see the Palin that Alaskans know.
Peace

Since I returned from the war, trying to do my part for this country, she has failed to be there for me when I needed her. You see, I am no longer able to hold a job because of injuries sustained, and the government has denied me my disability benefits that I have paid into all these years.
So, I am just pushing her aside, and trying to live my life off of the land as much as possible without being a burden to the economy or anyone else. I have 10 acres that can provide me with everything I need, not want, but need. We are living comfortablly, and without near the stress of what used to be.
I am not mad, letdown a little maybe and hurt, because of the others I see benefitting from the programs I should be allowed to use that are not even citizens.
But, I am a survivor! Take care

Don't know if you heard, but I quit my job and went off on my own. Haven't had this much time off in 25 years.
As for the drug thing, consider this: I would be willing to be that 95% of the addicts in this country do not get offered or have access to rehab until they are caught. Most of them fail at rehab. But I've seen enough succeed to think it is worth the effort. If nothing else, I don't want them out on the streets driving the same highways as my family.

An officer is justified in conducting a carefully limited search of persons whom he reasonably suspects to be dangerous in order to discover any weapons which might be used to assault him or other nearby, even in the absence of probable cause for arrest. Any weapons seized may be introduced in evidence.
The young man was lawfully searched under this ruling. This is the ruling which give LEO's thier authority to intrude on 4th Amend rights. The key wording is the officer does NOT need probable cause. All he needs is to "feel" someone may be armed and the search is on. The reason he used - drug para was found and the supreme court has already ruled that drugs and weapons go hand in hand. I would consider another attorneys consult if I were you or try to come to an amicable agreement with the school. Was this AST, Fairbanks or Anchorage???

A "terry" frisk is a brief pat-down of the outer clothing; ie; the carefully limited search. If during the frisk, the officer feels something he may remove it and verify it under what is called "plain feel." Going into the pockets is a little more intrusive and would require the plain feel requirement absent probable cause. Of course, when a subject is arrested the intrusion is no longer limited as the search is conducted incident to arrest. These are supreme court rulings and not state ones.

Before one might dismiss the fact that Sarah Palin is Commander of the Alaska National Guard consider this.
Alaska is the first line of defense in our missile interceptor defense system. The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard is the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It’s on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units.
As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counter terrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden's and certainly by far exceeds Obama's.
She's also the commander in chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counter terrorism plans. Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire c
