so very cool and impressive.. whether its finished or not!. I know it's probably common knowledge around here but I am unsure.. what are you going for? what was your masters?

No, I don't throughly vet every company or charity I have ever done business with, but the SA thing is actually pretty well-known. I'm not the ONLY person in the world who feels this way. If you good Salvation Army and Homosexuality you'll see some of the info.

I'm sorry you feel I've insulted your favorite charity. I'm not campaigning to bring them down, or anything. Just donating elsewhere. I guess we're just going to have to disagree.

[QUOTE]This I think needs a disclaimer - I love Tide and think she's great and beautiful - but I did not like her maternity pics and I feel like I must be a b!tch for thinking that because everyone else was fawning all over them.  I guess they're just NMS.

I'm with you on that- between naked stomachs and cheesy poses, maternity pictures give me the creeps.

I'm not sure why Mermac should have to like the Salvation Army just because Sarah ( or anyone else) says so.  If she doesn't agree with one of their principals and chooses not to support them because of it, thats entirely her business not to mention a perfectly legitimate reason.  wtf would it be anyone elses concern?

Fair enough. I'm just more focused on what they actually do than on their company bylaws and such. I also want a kindle for Christmas, so there ya go. Some common ground!

Count me in on the group think.

I dont think its fair to criticize anyone for the charities they support or dont, she gave a valid reason, that doesnt make her a bad person.

How does one get punked into getting a shot?  I'm intrigued.

Did the weird peach holding picture in someone's signature get explained?

i like the new and improved dani.

i don't understand how rach went from orange brunette to pale bleached blonde overnight.

bbyckes

I got guilted into it by my office mates.  They were offering it at work and basically I got nagged into getting one.  Had no intention, but it's over now.   They were all like, "OMG, what if you get it!!!  Think about your son!  Who's going to take care of him if you get sick???"  So, punked.

People can like or dislike whatever the hell they want to. But I think it's pretty lame to claim to be against a company that exists to do charity work.

I was wondering this too. I think the caption was something like "must take picture" but I can't help but wonder if it's a joke. It looks really creepy.

Well, not really Dani.  I was asleep for over half of it!

ZOMG opposite day!


Yeah, Sarah, I've been dropping hints to FI the size of boulders. He's pretty good with present hints actually. It comes from having a mother who's highly picky about the gifts she gets.

I'm glad we're sort of cool now.

Ah, thanks Capri.

That was NCV, wasn't it?  I think it was a joke.  Her last sig was a bizarre headdress of some kind.

Well, I have that AND the iphone on my list. I think I'll get one or the other. Hmmm. if you get it and I don't you'll have to tell me what you think of it!

I think it's pretty darn smart to research charities before donating. I just looked up the Salvation Army's Position Statements (on their website) and I definitely understand why people would choose to donate money elsewhere.

salt78

That picture is hilarious.
Although I'm really happy to hear she's kidding.

I don't think that's valid at all. I'm against Amnesty International. I'd never give them a dime. I disagree with their stance on a few things and I prefer to give my money to OXFAM. It's a matter of opinion, there isn't a right or wrong in this if the opinion can be backed up.

Definitely. I haven't seen one in person yet, but I'm obsessed with looking at it on Amazon. At first I thought, "Whatever, I can get books for FREE from the library," but it will b so convenient when I travel. And there are a ton of classic books for kindle that only cost $1 or $2 instead of the $9.99 they charge for new books.

I think it's silly. You don't. We aren't going to change each other's minds. I appreciate her explaining her reason on here since she didn't in the previous thread and we are past it. Jump on the kindle train.
