    Addiction is not a funy at all

    So how do you explain the people who continuously try to quit smoking or doing drugs and fail time after time after time. 1/3 are successful, 1/3 relapse and 1/3 die. Too many studies out there that show addiction is a disease.

    Addiction is not a funy at all

Yes, it was the persons choice to originally try the drug, but once they are hooked, they are controlled by the drug until they make the choice to stop and depending on how much of a hold the drug has on them will determine if they can successfully end...

    Perhaps you should get Morgan to wear ear plugs for a day and let her experience what you do on a daily basis.

    He also lies an average of 6.3 times per day! Not angry, just amazed that he got elected! Not a history professor, I just do my homework before I cast my ballot. BTW I didn't vote for Clinton either!

    Family wants to keep life support for girl brain dead after tonsil surgery

    Could get ugly when the City of Oakland charges Jahi's family members with involuntary manslaughter for feeding Jahi the same day she had her surgery. There actions led to her death. Sadly the family is in complete denial.

    Love it! As in the parable by Jesus with Trump and his followers It basically boils down to the blind leading the blind! Trump and his knowledge of history: 1. Trump said that Andrew Jackson, the populist rabble-rousing President with whom he has begun to claim political kinship, had strong...

    All it will do is lead to higher prices and inflation. Wood products (anything coming from Canada) has already gone up 60% in the last few months. Go back in history to the late 1920's and the Smoot Hawley tariffs and you will get a good idea of what an all out trade war can do to the nations...

    Problem with Hearing Aids - need an advice.

    Take it back and tell the person who changed out the tubes that the HA was working fine before they changed the tube and now it's not working. they can easily check it to see if it's amplifying anything and if not they can then get to work to solve the problem.

    Will hearing aids lower self esteem?

    Your hearing loss is way more obvious than any HA will be. Also you fellow worker will be happy that you finally addressed your hearing issues and got help. Good luck!
