		<description>I'm an Imus fan and believe that what he said about the Rutgers team was wrong and hurtful and he should pay a price. I don't believe that he should be fired and am sorry that he will not be on MSNBC or CBS. He will surface elsewhere.

Steve Capus, MSNBC and the NBC family of companies should be ashamed. Capus and NBC caved to pressure and fired Imus because sponsors began to pull their support. For Mr. Capus and NBC to say otherwise is shameful and dishonest. He and his board caved to pressure from the sponsors and to a lesser degree to the rants of some members of the NBC staff. Capus and the other leaders of the NBC family of companies made a gutless, shameful and wrong decision to abandon Imus and it will cost them. I, and I believe many others like me, will not watch any NBC news product anytime soon.

Capus and the other leaders of NBC who allowed liars and hypocrites to influence their decision and demonstrated that they are cowards and care only about the bottom line. This was purely a business decision and I understand that. For Capus and the other leaders at NBC to contend that it was anything else is insulting to us all.

Ask Al Sharpton if he has said he was sorry for the hurt and the lies he spewed during the Tawana Brawley case. he was a small-time huckster who made his career on the back of a lie and nobody has ever held him accountable. He has no credibility; and for corporate executives to bow to him is truly shameful.</description>

		<description>My husband and I don't argue too much. Our disagreements often are about the kids.
Other times he might tell me that I spend way too much time blogging and on the Internet. Hmmm...I think he definitely has a point there!
C'mon, Neil &#38; Sophia, making up is the best part of a fight. Laughing about the fight come sometimes even be healthier to the mind and morale. Keep laughing you two.</description>

		<description>Oopsy, it is fine to tell a Jew "Happy Easter."  We're not very jealous of Easter.  The last thing any of us want to do is sit around with our families AGAIN and play with colored eggs.  We don't want you to say "Merry Christmas."  Christmas we ARE jealous of because of all of the good songs.  You can keep "Easter Parade," written by a Jew, of course.</description>

		<description>What I am wondering is how we are going to top your birthday next year.  maybe we will just all show up on your doorstep at once.  Be sure to order enough chinese for us. Hot and Sour soup for me please. 

BTW, I think I told you Happy Easter in my email to you when I was replying about the lottery tickets.  My Jewish sister in law sent me an email today telling me that it was appropriate for me to have sent her an Easter card. (Excuse me for trying to be nice)  Now I am thinking about all my Jewish friends that I said Happy Easter to.  Oh shit! I guess I shuldn't have sent my Jehovah Witness friend a Christmas card either. My bad.</description>

		<description>There are some immutable laws of the universe:

1) However much Chinese takeaway you order, you always think you've haven't ordered enough.

2) However little Chinese takeaway you actually take home, you've always got more than you can possibly eat.

3) Other people's arguments are invariably about trivial stuff that you couldn't possibly get so heated about.

4) Except for when you're really, really angry.

5) If you can't find the books (or whatever you've misplaced), look for the hammer you wanted last week and you'll find the books. You won't find the hammer until you're looking for something else altogether.</description>

		<description>Laini found two NW cookbooks in her house and she didn't know where they were from so they must have been yours. 
You and Sophia are a wonderful couple! I could read about your fights all day long!</description>

		<description>Twenty five years of marriage. We had few arguments the first 13 years, and then we had kids and started becoming irritable and testy. Being endlessly patient with children and chronically sleep deprived doesn't leave much energy for the spouse, though it gets better as the kids mature.</description>
