PMS: The empty womb cries out.
Funny things are happening at my house now that I have two daughters of reproductive age.
For one thing, the truism that women who live in close proximity to one another will get "in sync" resulting in days of bathroom crush is found to be true.
And secondly, the proof that "the empty womb cries out" becomes very evident. PMS probably should be called "pregnancy missed syndrome".
A generation of women is very, very cranky as we deny our wombs the gift of having children.
Realizing that it is after ovulation, when the body hormonally "realizes" that it isn't pregnant and trips the "prepare to start again" switch, that my girls have these huge, nonsensical meltdowns is very sobering.
Yes, it's "just hormones". But it isn't without reason. At a deep place, a woman wants to be a woman and bring forth life from the womb.

One great thing about living in a "flyover state" is that I can do a bit to grow my own food, and stay under the radar. We can live on goat milk and greens for a little longer than our citified neighbors can live without Wal-mart.
The elitists are shooting for total control of our food supply, but twisting incidents into policy, manipulating the media and making decisions that make our food non-nutritive.
But they truly are poisoning their own well, and it can't last. I guess the big question is: Will agribusiness bring about the "Big Bust"? Or will it be a political crisis that brings American down?

Scientists Discover...
Scientists Use Brain Enhancing Drugs
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080409/ts_afp/healthscienceresearchersdrugs
DH: Did you read the headlines that scientists are using brain enhancing drugs?
Moi: "Is that how they discovered global warming? Yeah... Does it seem hot in here to you?"
Son: "So... will they have their Noebel prizes revoked if they get caught?"
DH: "Yeah. 'Peace, man... Wow.... I've discovered peace.' "

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
International airline to allow cell phone chatter on planes (http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/12/21/wired.airlines/index.html)
Does anyone else think this is a HORRIBLE development!!!
So, it's not enough that I have to be trapped in a tiny little seat in "the most upright and uncomfortable position", worry about the comfort of the person next to me, rub thighs with them, worry about when and whether they - or I- need to go to the restroom, whether or not they are done with their drink... all without food or healthy drink...
I'm now going to have to listen to them guide their spouse through their Wal-mart shopping trip, find out what their boy/girlfriend things about their exboy/girlfriend.
If the airlines think this will be SAFE they obviously have no clue how much damage a middle-aged housewife with candidiasis can do when she flips out!
Does anybody have the power to stop this? Smaller seats I managed to live with, longer periods with my seatbelt on I cope with, no more peanuts and I said nothing... But this is the last straw!

Well, if they weren't raped before, they have been now! I'm talking about the children of the so-called "Reformed Latter Day Saints" raided on the basis of one phone call. I note that "more 50 cell phones have been confiscated..." Doesn't that indicate that the people there had pretty good access out, and were hardly being held prisoner?
The egregious crimes that "Child Protective Services" commits against families and children are unbelievable!
The assumption that because one child among 300 complained of sexual abuse means that the entire ranch of children should be "abducted by strangers" (police) "sexually assaulted" (by doctors) and held in captivity (by well meaning do-gooders who don't recognize that they are part of a government kidnapping program) is criminal.
(Notice how the media tends to use inflammatory words like "compound" about housing that is very ordinary - if a developer did it, we'd call it a subdivision. If religious people do, it's called an "enclave" or "compound")
The tone of articles about this mess makes it sound like it is unconscionable that families would want their children to dress modestly, not be raped by boys in the lav ( or science teachers in the lab), and that it is shocking that there would be parents who don't think there is anything worth watching on television.
These people thought the "the world was hostile and immoral"... well, Hello! Have you watched Youtube lately? Read the headlines? The RLDS people can hardly be considered kooks because they think things are getting pretty scary out there.
Deep breath in... out... Don't get me started!
Unfortunately, it is common practice for tyrannical government to use people on the fringes to implement disastrous policies against those who don't rely on the government, and don't conform to society's norms. I do believe that abuse may have been happening at "The ranch".
However, I don't think that dressing in pioneer dresses, home schooling, avoiding television or valuing family constitutes abuse. If these families need help with de-programming, I think it could be done without destroying their children.
May God have mercy on them all.

Twisted Justice
A polygamous sect has been rounded up. Shocked journalists write that there are 13 and 14 year olds who are married and pregnant.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,350768,00.html
I am in no way pro-polygamy... or pro teen marriage... However...
Meanwhile, our easy divorce laws, winking at adultery, and fornication with no consequences means that anybody can have sex with anybody any time they want. Schools teach children "If it feels good, do it!" including sodomy. Parents are prohibited from interfering in the "personal lives" of their children.
I know of one young lady who was raped at 13. She was placed under house arrest, while the 24 year old who had sex with her (statutory rape, regardless of circumstances) was released because he said, "She said she was 18!" Yeah, right. He's a wronged suitor, but she is a criminal.
So... let me be sure that I have this straight. If I want to rape a 13 year old, sodomize him/her, with or without consent, the law is on my side. But, if I actually marry that same 13 or 14 year old (presumably with their parent's permission, in this case) then I am a criminal, on the ATF hitlist.
A man can have an infinite number of sex partners, but if he pays them (I'm thinking of the recent expose on the New York Governor) that's a problem.
A young man can have an infinite number of sex partners, but if he actually marries some of them, he's busted. Unless, of course, he divorces them in between, a kind of "serial polygamy" that leaves the woman to try to fend for herself.
As a society, Americans need to decide whether people can be accountable for the sexual behavior or not. The schizophrenia represented by having Polygamy Laws be the only sex-related laws that are actually enforced is ridiculous.
