I am NOT saying this is my view (although it is my view, I would not actually have a problem w/ a gay person being in a leader capacity around my child as long as sexuality is not a topic of discussion) and I am not trying to start any arguements... just saying that is a case we had locally.
    Is this the situation involving the female Tiger Leader ?

    Tyrrell decided to lead Cruz's first-grade Cub Scout troop last fall. "It was a very community-oriented group of kids," she said. "They made me treasurer to get the books in order ... I found some discrepancies -- things that didn't add up."

    She said she met with local representatives over the financial matters, but afterwards, the scout master called her and said, "We have to ask you to resign."

    "Everyone locally knew I was gay," said Tyrell. "I was devastated. I cried for two days. Those kids were my family. All my parents were devastated."
    She was a Leader for a year ... and everyone "knew" she was gay ... and after she found mismanagement with the money ... then she was asked to leave. ??? Maybe is has nothing to do with being gay and everything to do with someone "borrowing/stealing" money from the Cubs ??

    I thought that once you had MRSA...it was in your system and could re-occur at anytime. I have a friend who got it while in the hospital. Now, when she is admitted for any other reason...she is still isolated because she 'tests' positive for the MRSA virus.
    Never argue with an idiot. It will bring you down to his level and he’ll win because of experience.

    I really need to stop reading my "liberal" relative's links on FB.

    There's nothing more hypocritical as a sympathetic liberal.

    Sometimes people are just happy where they are and who they are, it is only when the liberal "enlightens" them to their "short comings" that they begin to feel bad about who they are and what they haven't got nor accomplished.
    Mrs Pepperpot is a lady who always copes with the tricky situations that she finds herself in....

    I always try to look at the bright side of things. We were not poor but rather, financially challenged. We taught our kids the important things like, honor, empathy, character. When they boo hood, I would point out that our vehicle was not new but, it was paid for and had cheap insurance. That left us $$$ for other things. Hubby and I saw the bottom coming. We would joke with the kids on who would have it roughest when it happened. When it happened, nothing changed much for us. But for the families of my kids friends, it seemed disastrous.

    Be thankful for the things you do have and for the things you don't (like bills).

    I have a friend who has MRSA. He was hospitalized twice. This was 2 years ago & he is till on antibiotics. Said MRSA will never go away & that it will always be in his system. Needless to say my only contact with him now is via text messages. I have a compromised immune system so I can not knowingly be around someone with an active infection.

    I stood in line for 2 hours to get my son's tux for prom tomorrow. The company sent the wrong size shoes so I have to go pick them up tomorrow. I told them I expect them to take some off of the rental for the inconvenience. It is just frustrating they couldn't get it right the first time.

    I have to take my oldest son to Philly tonight for a 6 AM flight to Florida & I am still feeling like crap. Why he couldn't go down today with his friends I still don't understand. Then again they have been sitting in the plane since 5:00 & still have not taken off so by now I would be driving back to take him off that plane. What part of find a flight from a closer airport in the afternoon didn't he get? He wanted to save himself a few $$$ but it is costing me $$$ to stay overnight at a hotel, gas, tolls & food. Well that is his birthday present.
    Youngest one is coming along & wants to take me to Center City Philly but all I want to do is sleep on my couch. Got to call the doctor on Monday.
