I have been looking all over the net for a decent writing website, but when I found WDC, it was way beyond being decent. I have been here for about a month short of a year and I have enjoyed every moment of it! The members of... [More]

Can we talk?		Rated: E
My blog. I'm opionated and I just want to sound off.
by: pumpkin	Avg Rating: (4)

It's a collection of editorials or even mini-sermons. I know it's wrong to give unwanted advice if you want to have a few friends. But I can't fight the urge that I know better than they what they should or shouldn't do. I have all this wisdom and experience and it's such a shame not to share it!
Our culture needs some sound advice and I'm just the one to give it.

153 Days 14 Hours ago, in response to "The Thorn Birds"

said:

It's all about free will. God loves us and wants us to love Him, but He cannot MAKE us. If He could, what would that be worth? Thought provoking entry.

Can't stomach Trump, and Joan Rivers makes me gag. Nope. Not my kind of TV.

203 Days 14 Hours ago, in response to "Enhanced Interrogation"

Kay Jordan

said:

excellent post, my friend. Funny how our liberal friends don't seem to pay any heed to the senseless death of an American at the hands of those we are now supposed to embrace as our friendly next-door-neighbors in this "one world community" we seem to be careening toward at breakneck speed. Probably because they are too busy defending the rights of those who have vowed to wipe us from the face of the earth. It's a scary world we inhabit.

285 Days 2 Hours ago, in response to "My WDC handle"

Nada

said:

Hi Pumpkin! Thanks for visiting my blog today!

I find the name Pumpkin very endearing, a wonderful symbol of a time of year transitioning from one season to another. I laughed at how you got it as your handle, because when I signed up they asked for a handle and I could not think of anything, so the word nothing, or nada came to mind. And so I came to WDC as Nada.

I'm sorry about the ongoing heart problems, my household has been dealing with it for a year and a half, open heart surgery last year to start. If I can be of any comfort or help don;t hesitate to ask, misery loves company.

~Wind in my Wings~

said:

Hi there pumpkin! Since turnabout is fair play, here I am.

- Hubby and I economize by carpooling to work. Granted, it only saves 20 miles a day, but that adds up quickly, both in dollars saved and emissions.

- I use cold water to wash pretty much everything these days. In the warm months, I try to hang wash out on the line.

- I have gone back to making menu plans and lists before shopping. Makes a difference!

476 Days 3 Hours ago, in response to "safer driving"

Mel aka Mrs Tor

said:

Sounds like an interesting class. I will have to look and see if they offer it around here. I have found that the older I get, the more I hate to drive, especially in city traffic. I hate speeding down highways through large cities going 70 miles an hour in bumper to bumper traffic. People are just so much in a hurry these days. Try to slow down to at least the speed limit and you get run over. Gosh, slow down and relax, enjoy the drive !!!

486 Days 1 Hour ago, in response to "Socks and Sandals"

Nada

said:

I suppose some would/could make the same arguement for the underwear up and the shorts or half-pants down ....either look ridiculous.

Distinctive, a great word.

493 Days 23 Hours ago, in response to "The Bible outdated"

Rowan

said:

If she asked that question she should have been prepared for an answer like that. There are many things in the bible that I find incorrect regardless of time period but also many that seem true and good for everyone, everywhere, at any time. People are free to have their own opinions about religion and if she expects to have her own she should grant you yours.

497 Days 4 Hours ago, in response to "PUBLIC LANGUAGE"

Debi Wharton ♥

said:

You're absolutely correct on this issue.

I love it when I hear my son speak up and tell someone who has just used God's name in vain that his God is so awesome that he doesn't need a dam, he can walk on water.

497 Days 4 Hours ago, in response to "What are you going to do to him?"

Debi Wharton ♥

said:

I couldn't have said this any better myself. Over the past few years I have completely lost all respect for Jesse Jackson, and refuse to honor him by calling him Reverend. He doesn't deserve that respect in my opinion.

It seems as if there is any type of controversy he always tries to be involved in it in some way as if HE can help the situation.

Excellent entry...
