caroljane Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Men's Health Mag jhas compiled a fun (well, sort of ) list of America's 10 Saddest Cities based on suicide rates, antidepressant use, crime and unemployment rates. Brace yourself, Las Vegas: Fun City is No.1.Sad news for Ninth, and Floridians in general, Miami and two other gloomy corners of the Sunshine State grace the list. Memphis for crying out loud, has a lot of Heartbreak Hotels. And Detroit carries the mournful honours for the Northeast.So everybody from everywhere else can cheer up; things really aren't that bad in the miserable burg you are stuck in, honest !

Dennis Hardin Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 A year ago, Men’s Health reported on the drunkest cities in America, meaning those locations where people may be totally miserable but they are scarcely aware of it. The rankings were based on DUI stats, deaths from liver disease, etc. Las Vegas was number 11 on that list, and Miami (#96), Memphis (#71) & Detroit (#34) were way down even further.Obviously the folks in those cities need to start doing a lot more drinking.

My husband went to a conference there, taking a meagre entertainment allowance. He was no gambler but hoped to enjoy some shows or hang out in the lounges. Well, he tried, but reported that it is impossible to get a drink in Vegas without gambling in some form. Of course he lost all his money the first day, but it was not his fault,That was his story anyway.

Dennis Hardin Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 And as soon as anyone starts gambling, of course, the drinks are on the house. . .No doubt the cynics among us would suggest ulterior motives. . .Some people just refuse to accept the warmth and benevolence inherent in human nature.

Selene Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 MSK please note my last post says Edited but should say Attempted to be Edited, since I tried to delete the quadrupes but it did not work. I am starting to feel like the Octomom, I will just Reply from now on.Hmmmm.... Octomom Reportedly To Do Porn VideoNadya Suleman Octomom9:42 am, May 1st, 2012It’s come to this.“Octomom” Nadya Suleman, completely broke, will reportedly shoot a porn video — albeit alone.The mom of 14 had long vowed not to sell her body for funds, but recently posed topless and has now signed with an on line adult entertainment company to film a masturbation video, according to TMZ.Yes, the project would be of the “solo” variety, thereby not violating Suleman’s public promise not to do porn in which she has sex with another person.The film is expected to be shot and released soon.=======================Do we get to review yours?

caroljane Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 I had a fairly funny rebound for that, but I lost the heart for banter when I saw what that poor deranged girl has been reduced to. What a grotesque byproduct of liberty and the pursuit of happiness she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a grotesque byproduct of liberty and the pursuit of happiness she is.Yes. A perfect example of the complete degeneration of the civil society. The "Doctor" who implanted the embryos should be shot. There is some discussion that he should be forced to pay for the raising of the children. The cows left the barn and no amount of money can make up for the unethical behavior of this "doctor." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caroljane Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Well as you know, my reaction to the grossly unethical elements of society would not be to shoot them. Lots of people think doctors who remove embryos, and fetuses, should be shot, and some of them have gone ahead and shot them. It's a slippery slope.I know how you loathe socialized medicine but I cannot forbear from mentioning that no doctor in our health care system would have been able to do such a thing.Maybe somebody can sue that medical disgrace on behalf of those 14 kids for wrongful birth. Meanwhile he should be exiled to whichever Top 10 Sad Cities would be least congenial to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

william.scherk Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) The easiest solution for the troubled mother of a-few-too-many-for-her-budget is to sell (or rent) her children. Surely there are lovely (capitalist) homes for her spares.Are there no poorhouses? Are there no jails?
