I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY,IF THERE IS ANY QUESTION REGARDING SOMEONE'S GUILT,THAT TIME CAN'T BE TAKEN TO RE-VISIT AND RE-INVESTIGATE BEFORE PUTTING A POSSIBLY INNOCENT PERSON TO DEATH....TOO LATE LATER TO SAY "OOPS..MY BAD!!!".

For Deep-Sea Squid, Same-Sex Sex Is Only Half the Story - NYTimes.com

ok..for those of you who are interested in weird science..here you go!

i found this very interesting. Besides the sex part...i found it a bit sad that they live basically a solitary existence. however,since they've never lived any other way..do they know what they are missing? do they see other sea life in pairs or groups and feel left out? ...i wonder why these questions go through my mind. Maybe because i think every living thing needs another living thing!!..but, obviously not..as it says at the end of the article..there are still squid!

just "food for thought"...one of Ann's "I wonder"'s !!

SCAREDY KAT!!!

I amFurious..(do not read if you are upset by profanity..I am really angry)..

Some one please explain to me why the state of California allows an able-bodied man to go on General Relief..California tax dollars at work, and then order that his child support payment..which he hasn't paid in 6 years and as of today he is 33,000.00 in arrears, be dropped to zero!  he recently went on relief.....what is happening in this world! can't he collect cans,be a day laborer..anything!!
My daughter went to court today for this child support issue. my husband took her...he called a few minutes ago with this info and he was pissed!!  He had a COURT ORDER to pay..he never has...he has had a civil contempt charge place in 2008..his driving privileges have been taken away. If he had a DUI and a COURT Order to pay a fine and didn't..he'd be in jail. Why not with this court order? the court doesn't care of you don't have money to pay your DUI fine..you have to!! Why aren't ALL court orders enforced? Why do the tax payers have to help support children of deadbeat dads?I tell you all, I am so very angry at the child support system. these fucking asshole deadbeats can get away with not taking responsibility and NO ONE DOES ANYTHING!!! He doesn't choose to work,says he can't afford the minimum amt of child support(he would pay 1/2 of the bare minimum the state finds as POVERTY LEVEL!!!..), the general relief doesn't have to be used to feed his kids when he has them for visitation...WELL ,IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY ANYTHING HOW CAN YOU AFFORD  TO HAVE THEM FOR VISITATION? IF YOU DON'T THINK YOUR KIDS ARE IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO DO ALL YOU CAN TO PROVIDE THE BARE MINIMUM FOR THEM..WHY SHOULD YOU GET TO HAVE THEM FOR COURT ORDERED VISITATION? If my daughter refused to take them..she would be in contempt of court and could face jail time!!!  ...why is one court order ok to ignore and others aren't?
I AM SO MAD I COULD SPIT!! I WANT TO GO TO HIS HOUSE AND SHOOT HIM!! HE LIVES AT HIS MOTHERS..ALL 3 OF HER KIDS HAVE A TOTAL OF 10 CHILDREN!!. 1 DAUGHTER HAD 3( ADOPTED BY HIS mOTHER),1 DAUGHTER HAD 5 AND cHAD HAS 2(MY GRANDKIDS)...ALL OF THESE SPERM AND EGG DONORS ARE RECEIVING STATE FUNDS FOR THEMSELVES!!!!!! MEDI-CAL(STATE PAID HEALTH CARE),FOOD STAMPS AND CASH AID!!!!  YEP..NO WONDER CALIFORNIA IS BROKE!!!!
AAAARRRGGGGHHHHHH....i want to kick the walls and throw stuff!!!1
I have gone broke supporting my grandchildren..(my daughter has a learning disability which prevents her from getting a job)....i gladly pay my daughters portion to support my grandkids..but why should I pay that fuckers half!!
that little fucker knows how the system works..he was raised on it!!! 
When are the taxpayers going to say enough is enough? Why do we have to pay for the able-bodied who don't?
I would hire an attorney for my daughter to try to get his visitation stopped..but I don't have the money...I'm supporting his kids!! They came home Sun from visitation hungry and dehydrated..my granddaughter was told they couldn't afford milk for her,but they bought cigarettes and beer!!! She cereal and  chips only all weekend..my grandson ate Top Ramen noodles. They were both so dehydrated  neither one pee'd  until monday..they got home to our house at 5 pm Sunday..both drank water,juice and milk all evening...never pee'd till the next day!!  But, the court says they have to go .
I am pissed off and feel so helpless against this system. I want to cry!!! 
Ok..I'm going to go cry! after that I'm am seriously going to think about sending bad Karma his way...a dark spell might be just the thing.
Please don't think I'm awful..I'm just tired of watching this system..it lets the deadbeats, lazy and slothful people get by without taking responsibility...AND HE WANTS TO BE CALLED DAD...I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO TELL MY GRANDKIDS THAT THEY CAN CALL HIM A MOTHERFUCKING,LAZY,UNCARING ASSHOLE..but for now, I can't !!The court says ,in the court order, that no one can make a negative comment! Hah!! pretty funny...he doesn't have to follow the court order,but i can't call a lazy,no-good deadbeat a lazy,no-good deadbeat for fear of being hit with a  contempt of court and  fine for not following a court order..and you best believe that the court would make me pay..BECAUSE I'M NOT ON STATE RELIEF!!!
AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!
