    Forget the Dollar stores...

    I actually did some looking online and discovered that the sleigh is from Woolworth's! It also has "Japan" stamped on it.

    Forget the Dollar stores...

    Oh I love this sort of thing! Yesterday I got this kitschy 1950's Santa display for $1: I also got a large Rubbermaid storage box full of 1950's Noma candoliers for $3 total, so way less than a buck for each! And they all work and just needed some cleaning. Oh, and a Victorian prayer book...

    Another ebay question!!

    You're bidding on auctions that have more than one item, so that's why there is more than one "winner" with the same bid amount. And when you "outbid" yourself you were buying another. :eusa_doh:

    According to the auction you bought two of the items. ;) Click on "bidders list" link to see. There was more than one bidder, too, because they had more than one of the items.

    Which religious group?

    I want to add one more thing. I don't mean that it is unfortunate that there are belief systems that state that "if you do not do ____ you will burn in hell." That is anyone's right to believe that and I respect that fully. I also understand that means that some people believe I will face that...

    Which religious group?

    Fortunately we live in a country where there are no consequences for participating in one's own religion, or not at all. As Doran and many others will tell you, they prefer to be true to what they truly believe, or not, and will pay any price to be able to do so. It's most unfortunate when a...

    "The Death of the Grown-up"

    wikipedia: Ad hominem argument, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: "argument to the person", "argument against the man") consists of replying to an argument or factual claim by attacking or appealing to the person making the argument or claim, rather than by addressing the substance of...

    Which religious group?

    My point being that one can communicate one's faith without words, so that while a Christian may be "quiet" by your definition they can still be quite effective in conveying their truths with their actions.

    Which religious group?

    I'm not sure at whom this is directed but I don't think it's necessary to label someone "selfish" simply because they prefer to keep their beliefs private, and often with good reason. Edit: Keeping the verbalization of their beliefs private. I had a friend who was a born again Christian. She...
