my my...how often do we look in the mirror.
I am an addict....to smoking....and nail biting....some would agree both can kill me.......
hope none of you are overweight.....food is an addiction.....
was it easy for you to lose weight?
hope none of you ever took a drink and drove a car....shame shame....
even if it was 1 or 2 beers, alcohol drinks....whatever...you should have never gotten behind a wheel.
Don't throw stones unless you live in that glass house, and if you do...tell me where....i may just want to throw a rock as i go by.

YEAH Bashthe Fat People they are jacking up my healthcare costs, it must be true I saw it on the news...
The people that arent upset about this are the same types that are responsioble for letting our country get this way. And they still want to bring up obsolete things as a food addiction.... I have never seen a 350lb man run into a Village Pantry put a gun in the clerks face and demand twinkies...but I have seen and caught strung out crackheads and other addicts for puttting guns in peoples faces for $27 out of a VP register to get a rock. SOme people really need to be shown what real life is all about, not just the good stuff they are used to seeing. Most only read about the "bad"!!

You all must feel real blessed...that none of this has ever happened to you or your family...the question I have, is that I pray, I believe in God, I go to church, occassionally, so why am I not as blessed as most of you? I consider myself a good person, and so are most of my family and friends...but some have had some troubled times...even if it is breaking the law....I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY I CAN'T BE BLESSED AS MOST OF YOU SEEM TO BE? Why does GOD choose to bless some...and not all the same way when it comes to temptation.
are there pills, drinks, I need to take to be so blessed? tell me what to do...and tell all the other families out there who's lives are not so perfect? I sure don't go around praising the devil, but pehaps he found a way into our lives at one time or another....and now we have to over come such lives....how do you keep the devil out of yours?
Even adam and eve had a visit from the devil
clue me in....this outta be interesting.

It seems like every time a topic like this comes up there is a large number of people that think this is acceptable. That excusses need to be made. That there needs to be exceptions. This has nothing to do with addictions. Being addicted to cigarettes is LEGAL. Being addicted to junk food is LEGAL. If you want to drink beer it is also LEGAL to a legal limit. So if you want to sit on your couch and feed your 300# face while chugging a beer and puffing a big fat cigar go for it. That is LEGAL. It is NOT LEGAL to do illegal drugs. I dont care what the reason is, its NOT LEGAL. NOT at home. NOT in public. And NOT in a race car. It was a CHOICE. The CHOICE that was made broke the law. Period.

Stealing peoples life savings is not legal, but the head of Enron, not only got off with a slap of the wrist, but also got named to serve on bush's cabinet until he was indicted. Wonder if he or Aaron hurt more people? If you compare who's crime impacted more people, Mr Fike got a rough sentence. Just for the record America has a horrible, corrupt legal system that is totally based on money. That is why we need more and more jails. I have a friend who's family moved to America to flee Italy and Mussolini. He said in Italy the were very tough on crime, and executed many criminals. They still prefered freedom. Imagine that.
