I don't hear it much here in Minneapolis, but I blame that on "city folk". Interestingly enough, I had never, ever heard of "kringle" until I met my college roommate from Wisconsin (in Winona), and was surprised to learn how ever present it was, just across the River in Wisconsin while it was nowhere to be found in MN. |

I had never heard of kringle either until I had a boss who thought that the angels made it. We were all forced to contribute some money for each weekly office meeting and got a lousy, skinny piece of dough with a dab of something. I figured it out one day. For what she charged us each week I could have supplied everyone with orange juice, blueberry muffins, coffee hard boiled eggs and bacon. What a rip off! Janet US |

I made some beef tomato which is a Hawaiian adaptation of a Cantonese dish. I'd like to use red or yellow peppers but they cost over twice the price than the lowly green bell pepper so no dice. OTOH, they pretty much taste the same to me. https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/cnvW-caTT06uixBt4QYdkg.6JuzQG0GU2o2guiYah9fXt |

If you disagree with her point of view she simply insults. In this case she has failed to post anything that would justify waking up 10 million people in the middle of the night. Apparently this these alerts provide essential information for those who are rudely awakened. They can either ignore the blaring tone or they can go and check the details of the alert and then go back to sleep and forget about them.Then they wake up with a sore arm from patting themselves on the back for being so kind and caring, even though they did absolutely nothing to help. |

The Thai people weren't used to seeing a tow-headed girl. I remember walking down the street to a movie theater to see Franco Zefferelli's 'Romeo & Juliet' with my parents and my brothers. I was looking forward to it. I suspect my brothers hated to be dragged along. It was interesting to note the reaction of the Asian people to my natural very light blonde hair. It felt odd to be noticed but I understood why. Looking around, no one else had my hair colour, either. Now let's put me in that same time in a US city. Walking to the movies with my family. I'd have blended in with any other child. I doubt I'd have been particularly noticeable. Jill |

I have what I refer to as a dumb phone, one of those cheap flip phones that I buy a 30 dollar card for that pays for two months of service. In an average month I might make 2-3 calls, and I receive 2-3 calls, usually from doctors or from CVS telling me to pick up my prescriptions. We still have a land line, and the only reason we have that is because of the bundling of cable and internet that it is somehow cheaper to also get phone than not to get it, and the only calls we get is from telemarketers, which we ignore, and I guess it is handy to have for an emergency. > Everybody I know who has one of those smart phones, they cannot go more than two minutes without picking them up. This was most annoying when I was in the business sector, and I would walk past people's cubes, and half of them would be on their phones. Checking Facebook or Twitter, texting somebody, reading a text, looking at pictures, sending emails; at a guess, I would estimate people with smart phones spend about at least one hour of their work day on their cell phones. Unfortunately, Steve Jobs is already dead so we can't shackle him and make him pay for his crimes against humanity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnrJzXM7a6o |

Reasoned argument? Like you do that always! I still say, I do not mind being disturbed by these alerts, I am thankful it is not my child for whom they are searching. If there is a picture, yes, I am so sorry for the parents I will try to spot the child if I am anywhere near the area. I fail to see what you find wrong with that, but I do understand from all your posts you are totally wrapped up in yourself and NO! of course they shouldn't disturb YOU because some kid is missing or in danger!!! |

You don't have to know the child or remember what the child looked like. Maybe you just see something a little hinky that makes you slightly uncomfortable. You take note and maybe you think you should call someone. That's all that is wanted. Just a little heightened awareness. Janet US |

When I was growing up, I'd hear the gas lawn mower going every Sunday afternoon. That was how I knew it was Sunday. The guy across the street had some Chinese grass that was beautiful and pokey. That stuff is slow growing so it was odd to be mowing it so often. When I became an adult, I realized that the guy was OCD. When my mom died, he got the case of the nerves and retired. He's dead but it is unfortunate to spend your life worrying about things and the future. |
