I guess I should be glad that my mom doesn&#039;t watch much, if any, television. She also lives 2,000-ish miles away, so if she were to worry of my being kidnapped, robbed, raped, and then murdered as a matter of practicality she&#039;d have to come up with a long distance kind of solution. It&#039;s unlikely that she and my dad would move back to SoCal - financially their pensions go further out there, their 4 grandchildren are there, they sold their house here 7 years ago give or take to move out to Omaha where they&#039;ve built a home and can enjoy their golden years. 

I like to say weird and off-putting to my mom because it&#039;s weird and off-putting. :P My dad finds it much more entertaining than my mom does, but he knows I&#039;m just being sarcastic. :)]]></description>

NO! I found a creative way with dealing with what I call my mother&#039;s Dateline NBC way of thinking.  In her brain, if I&#039;m going anywhere by myself, I will be in certain danger of being kidnapped robbed or murdered.  I found that saying silly outrageous things like that avoids having  an argument. and makes her laugh.:)]]></description>

Hi Lady Squash and everyone....has anyone noticed recent pictures of Laura Prepon?  Once an adorable ginger on &#039;That 70&#039;s Show&#039; and quiet on the $cieno front, she appears to being groomed as a potential Cruise-mate and has become much more public about her ties.  Hmmmmm.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;We see reporters get into this problem again and again when just a phone call to someone like Mike Rinder or Marc or Claire Headley or any number of other former important Scientology executives could confirm that Foundation for a Drug-Free World, its “Truth About Drugs” campaign, Narconon, and a dozen other front groups are not just “affiliated” with Scientology but are Scientology, and they don’t do a thing without the approval of Scientology leader David Miscavige.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


Or how about a quick Google? It takes all of 0.23 seconds. How do reporters not know how to Google things?]]></description>

The other difference is that only men (and very few) became angry enough about the experiment to threaten the researchers.

It only happened a few times, but it was only men who started yelling and getting in their faces and denouncing them.  

Women who became outraged left. A few tried to contact the authorities.  None started screaming at the researchers.

Notably, none of the men carried out their threats.  And it was only a handful who blew up out of hundreds.  None of the men tried to notify authorities.]]></description>

I&#039;ll have to come up with something else for the new business that all of this has inspired me to create - Outcall Adult Performers of either gender which can be booked to appear at random places like co$ building openings. 

Just kidding, with so few people showing up to those the performers wouldn&#039;t want to be booked when it&#039;s for so little in cash tips. :)]]></description>
