Ventura by a mile, though the Wellstone/Feingold ticket is the average Atlas Democrat's dream ticket, so I hold little hope.

I would recommend that you retitle the thread so if you decide to cite the forum it will not look like you got all your info off of us.

Tried to start conversation with a certain girl again. I have one more day to try and get her number before the year ends and she is not on Facebook so if I don't get it tommorow I won't be seeing her at all until August.

We expect results young man!
Results: Saw her in the hall, talked to her for a little bit, and I totally forgot to even ask for her number. On the other hand, I did get a few other peoples numbers. Schools out for me, as I don't have any exams tomorrow. I have a job interview at the funeral home sometime next week.

Then I'll assume you're not so infatuated if you forgot to ask. You didn't chicken out. Good. Now we just need to get snowstalker a set of gonads so he's confident when he talks to his love interest.  Man you teens are a lot if work. Tongue
No, I was working my way up to it but just decided to wait to the beginning of next year when I have my license and car to appear more impressive. In other words, not I guess I was not that infatuated.

No, you do not have a "right" to employment. That being said, it is not decent to fire someone without a cause.

Exams today and tommorow. Geometry was hard as I cannot do the most basic math, and I may have to retake the class online. Tried to start conversation with a certain girl again.

No. I have a rather moderate hero view in regards to life-it begins when the heart starts beating.

Our paths don't path on this forum too often, but he seems alright. We disagree a lot I am sure, because I remember Dr. Cynic being a Humphrey style New Deal Democrat, while I am a paleoconservative.

My second favorite Republican in the 2012 field after Paul, and one of only three I could have voted for (Roemer is the third; counting Johnson as L rather than R).
This.

Went to the cast party for the school play because I was part of the stage crew. Tried to talk to a friend of mine but she was busy talking to some other people so I stood by in amused silence as a middle schooler tried to flirt with her. He wasn't really serious, so it wasn't that funny.

Poured rain all day. We had at least nine inches of rain all day, or something along that line.

@OP
Liberals like you are the real racists. It's obvious to me that there simply should be no history month. It's that simple. Keep it classy, lib.

Uh oh, did someone wander out of the Fox News comments section?

You need to change the title. Despite the best efforts of the far right Florida is not Mecca.  You will not get arrested purely for "being in a same sex relationship."  No one cares about that.  If she said the girl was her girlfriend and they went to the movies and chatted on the phone there would not have been an issue.
They would not have bothered to investigate if it were a straight couple.
24  General Politics / U.S. General Discussion / Sebastion FL girl arrested for being in a same sex relationship. on: May 20, 2013, 05:24:21 pm

The 18-year-old is accused having a relationship with an under-age female student at Sebastian River High School.

According to an arrest affidavit, Hunt became involved with a 14-year-old female student last November.

The teens had a sexual relationship on multiple occasions, including on the grounds of Sebastian River High School, the affidavit says.

When asked if she thought it was wrong, Kaitlyn said she did not think about it because the alleged victim acted older, the affidavit states.

In February, the sheriff's office set up a controlled call with the younger girl who asked Kaitlyn if the relationship meant anything to her.

Kaitlyn said it obviously meant something to her.

The next day she was arrested and charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious activity on a minor 12-16 years old.

Kaitlyn, a former cheerleader and basketball player, was expelled from school after the arrest.


Very sad. The law is pretty cut and dry, but that does not mean that the school and police are not using this as an excuse to attack young same-sex couples. Indian River County is my favorite place in the state, if not the world, and while it is very socially conservative, it does not usually go this far.

I believe that we can move toward renewable energy, but we're going to have to have a bridge product. Everybody wants to draw from the sun and draw from the wind, and I'm here to tell you that eventually that will make sense, but today the economics don't work. We need something like natural gas. It is ours, it's affordable, and we should begin the conversion process.

Debate response.
“I am a proud supporter of a “Right to Life” amendment to the Constitution. I have signed every piece of pro-life legislation that has come across my desk, and I will continue to do so. Regardless of our policy views, I know full well that Mr. Cain, Congressman Paul, Governor Huckabee, Governor Daniels, Senator Hutchinson and Senator Ayotte have and remain strong advocates for pro-life policies, and if there is one thing that can unite the Grand Old Party, it is our unwavering belief in the sanctity and value of human life.”

Jon Huntsman arriving at a rally in Davenport, Iowa.
“I do not hold much hope of winning this state, but I feel that the voters of Iowa should hear my message ahead of the caucuses before they go to the polls in a few months. I don’t plan on visiting all 50 states for the sake of visiting all 50 states, but my political strategy is not so cold and, well, political, as to ignore some key parts of the country who are hurting right now under the Obama economy.”
