I take issue with the author's premise ("Targeting Virtue," Faith & Ethics, March 22) in such statements as "modesty undermines women's relationship to themselves, to their sexuality, and to men," and Mormon women who adhere to modesty standards are "suppressing our sexuality." To state that modesty "contributes to the objectification of women" is distorted perception, making light of a sacred topic.
The author holds to a view that tells a woman who dresses modestly that she will not have any way to express or relate to her sexuality. I suggest that tasteful, fashionable modesty serves as an invitation to both look at and beyond outward attire to discover who a woman really is and to unveil her true worth as a daughter of God -- both to herself and to those with whom she comes in contact.
Modesty says I love and respect myself, my God, my husband, brother, father. I deem my body a temple that is home to my spirit. It is my responsibility to care for and protect it, not flaunt it. I dress modestly, but not unattractively, as a way to affirm that I know who I am, where I am going, and that my life has meaning and purpose.
Immodest dress with low cut tops, emphasis on cleavage, short skirts, and revealing attire delivers a different set of messages: "Look at me. Come and get me. I do not have limits, boundaries or standards beyond what an overly sensualized world dictates. I do not know who I am. I am hoping that if I can draw attention and approval from others, maybe I will feel like I am worth something, maybe then I will feel important."
The apostle Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, taught: "If there is anything virtuous, lovely, of good report or praiseworthy, seek after these things."

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
michael good: it looks like (as i thought) that there was nothing to fear regarding property destruction from any demonstrator or protester.
absolutely nothing negative happened as a result of days of protest.
hope that crow tasted *good.*
thank you cat brooks, for all you do . several people commenting are more interested in undermining your message than in understanding it . sad for them
I've heard the "diversity of tactics" so many times before. It's code for property destruction. I can see taking over space, or blocking a roadway for a period of time. But the babies who want to smash windows and light things on fire should be exposed and ejected by the group.
I think you are understanding my point. There is no true clarity that Cat Brooks (or you?) is actually opposed to property damage. Nor is it clear that is she supportive of it.
Her lack of a call for property damage is, therefore, not an indicator of her support of lack of it. My call is for her to speak plainly about it.
If you trace back to your earlier postings, you said:
"For the record: Neither I, nor APTP, have ever made a call for property damage."
what part of this is unclear?
some of the readers are playing stupid. cat made it crystal clear what the stance is on property damage.
So, hello, you do see what is unclear. It is clear that she did not make a call for property damage. It remains unsaid and unclear exactly how she actually feels about it.
Up to her to make decide whether or not she actually wants to be clear or obfuscate. And, as I said, maybe there is no nuance here. Maybe, she is actually quite opposed to property damage. That would be nice.
michael good also wrote:
Of course, causing death is not the same as property damage. But, you appear to have missed the point. Just because you do not call for an activity, does not mean you are against it. So, in war, just because you did not order the soldier to kill does not mean you are against the soldier killing. And, in Oakland, just because you did not call for property damage does not mean you are against it. Silence is not innocence.
it is not that i've missed the point, it's that you've failed to make a sound one.
in ordering a sandwich, just because you did not ask for pickles does not mean that you hate pickles - nor does it mean you like pickles. it only means you didn't ask for them.
in oakland, just because you did not call for property damage doesn't mean that you are for it, either.
it's neither here nor there.
you're trying to force a confession to determine guilt of an imagined war criminal when there is no need to do so.
michael good replied:
Come out and say it if you think any of these things are OK. Then tell us exactly what you and / or Brooks support."
regarding the last part of your response, i have no obligation to tell you what i personally do or do not support. you're no authority to me, and this isn't an inquisition or a trial. i'm only responding to that which is available for both of us to read and react to - which is this piece written by cat brooks.
there is no way i can tell you what books supports. i'm not a mind reader, and neither are you. we are both reading what has been published in EBX.
Adding a bit:
Thanks you for the correction on the quote. She did not say she that she had not made calls for violence. She only said she had not made calls for property damage.
And, correcting my own post, I meant to type "pretending that all is clear" but I inadvertantly type "pretending that almost clear"
Of course, causing death is not the same as property damage. But, you appear to have missed the point. Just because you do not call for an activity, does not mean you are against it. So, in war, just because you did not order the soldier to kill does not mean you are against the soldier killing. And, in Oakland, just because you did not call for property damage does not mean you are against it. Silence is not innocence.
So, let us know which form of destructive or harmful activities are condoned and which ones are not. And, if it is OK to cause harm for some and not others, how does that work?
Thank you.
If I knew I would not ask.
But, while pretending that almost clear, you dance around and obfuscate. Violence has many degrees. A much lesser degree is vandalism. Worse is bodily harm. The most heinous results in death.
I would hope that no violence is supported against anyone or anything. Keep dancing and avoid the point.
Come out and say it if you think any of these things are OK. Then tell us exactly what you and / or Brooks support.
Michael Good remarked: "Well, Michelle Metiche, I hope it is that simple. Maybe there is little to no nuance intended by Cat Brooks in her remarks.
She never made a "call for violence." Not calling for it - is that the same as not condoning it? Is not actually issuing orders for the soldier to shoot and kill the same thing as being against the war?
"We not only emphatically condemn violence against the people" - Who are the "people"? Is that all of us? Or only the ones that Cat Brooks wants to support? Does it mean that she emphatically does not condemn violence agains the police and/or anyone at all?"
well first off, you misquoted cat brooks. she said, "For the record: Neither I, nor APTP, have ever made a call for property damage" in response to being accused of supporting vandalism. your war analogy makes no sense here, as a broken window is clearly not comparable to people's bodies being injured or to people being killed.
next, in response to your question about who are the people, let me ask you this: who is it that you THINK cat brooks is referring to?
Well, Michelle Metiche, I hope it is that simple. Maybe there is little to no nuance intended by Cat Brooks in her remarks.
She never made a "call for violence." Not calling for it - is that the same as not condoning it? Is not actually issuing orders for the soldier to shoot and kill the same thing as being against the war?
"We not only emphatically condemn violence against the people" - Who are the "people"? Is that all of us? Or only the ones that Cat Brooks wants to support? Does it mean that she emphatically does not condemn violence agains the police and/or anyone at all?
Sandy Sanders: "Disrupting the status-quo non violently." Good, one hopes you mean just that. Throwing rocks at windows is pretty violent, right? Throwing rocks at police? Burning trashing cans is pretty violent as is smashing up cars. Take it a step further - imagine blocking the freeway. Imagine a person having a heart attack or a woman in labor, maybe in an ambulance and maybe not. They can't get through to the hospital. They die. Is that OK? The death was a direct result of your deliberate and illegal act. Running out on the freeway and trying to stop traffic. Someone gets hit and killed. Is that peaceful? We are at great risk of these acts of violence.
It would be good if we could hold the protestors to the standard of behaving non-violently. And really mean it without wiggling out of it with excuses or rationalizations. Hope you are right.
We all have the right to peaceful assembly. Let's keep it peaceful. Everyone and in every way.
Been reading the comments flowing in and glad to see support for the rights of people to be protected from police violence vs the rights of Commerce to do as it pleases without protest, disruption or inconvenience of any kind.
As per George Lakoff's theory, society is broken into two factions. Those who want equality, an egalitarian society, and those who like authoritarianism. The egalitarians love freedom, equality, openness and sharing. The other loves order, control, and the certainty of uninterrupted business as usual by whoever is in power of authority... usually themselves.
I am glad to a part of those seeking equality and justice for all. We will continue to speak out and disrupt the status quo non-violently while the Praetorian Guard of the 1% tries to crush us with distortions, lies, trickery, confusion and gibberish meant to keep themselves as overlord. Like tRUMP has done. Bon apptit America!
"For the record: Neither I, nor APTP, have ever made a call for property damage."
what part of this is unclear?
some of the readers are playing stupid. cat made it crystal clear what the stance is on property damage.
"Overwhelmingly, communities of color in both West and East Oakland have said they do not want a torn-up Oakland. A busted up Youth Radio building or family-owned downtown business alienates us from the very people we say we are fighting for."
can you people read?
cat books clearly says that property damage is not the will of oakland communities that ATPT is fighting for.
Ms. Cat Brooks, I would like to take this opportunity to say that you are one of my sheroes and I am so proud and humbled by the great work that you are doing on behalf of our people.
I share your sentiments exactly and am so tired of the violence being perpetuated against our people being compared and conflated to destruction of property. I'm tired of our ancestors efforts being thrown in our faces as if their way of organizing is the only way, or as if the white people throwing it in our faces actually know anything about how or why they organized. As if we weren't at home digging through their words, searching for direction and finding in it exactly the direction we are going.
For all the people writing in opposition to Cat, I laugh at you. How amusing it is to see people sitting on their asses complaining to a revolutionary in the midst of a full and successful revolution that somehow you know better how this revolution should be conducted. Cat Brooks name will be written in the history books and your will too, but only when we quote your racist, hateful comments. I'm writing a book now about the movement and it's naysayers. so thank you for providing me with such rich material.
And Cat, I hope I get the opportunity to meet you someday soon. In Solidarity, Phoenix.
David Cohen: well said..
I mentioned that it was a slight of hand because it seemed to me it was out of step with journalism norms. When a journalist makes a correction, they normally own it and point it out.
Either way, it further highlights the ambivalence (or support) Brooks appears to have about vandalism.
Thanks to Michael Good for pointing out the change in the headline (appropriately deleting "vandalism"). However, I don't see this as a sleight of hand, but rather just a correction, for which the editor of East Bay Express deserves credit. As for Ms. Brooks, she may want to reflect on exactly what her thesis is, and focus on that core message when she next writes an opinion piece, rinsing out some of the distracting off-point rhetoric.
Interesting that the East Bay Express changed the title of this opinion piece -
Protest Trump's Inauguration in Oakland, But Please Don't Vandalize or Become Violent
Protest Trump's Inauguration in Oakland, But Please Don't Be Violent
Seems to me that East Bay Express has made a correction to reflect that Cat Brooks was so vague about vandalization. They must have realized she is not really coming out against vandalization - she seems to think it is OK. Remember, it was the "independent" protesters doing this anyway.
Very slick slight of hand by the editors..............
I stand with Cat Brooks and the APTP.
This reads like a lot of nifty phrases - "the people", "diversity of tactics", "the masses", "the struggle", etc. all pieced together to sound like quite the revolution. But, if you read it again, it becomes more clear that it is like gibberish.
The "movement?" What movement? Not described here. Cat Brooks seeks to "illuminate the clarity of our message" with no real description of what exactly the message is and who the people are behind "our."
She seems clear on who is protesting as part of the movement and who is not. No one else seems to be clear. The mobs that gather and wreak havoc - do the good ones have ID cards that say they are the real movement while those that are not the real movement are the bad ones. How can anyone know this?
Is ATPT a real thing with lots of members or participants or supporters that are clear on a message? Does ATPT have membership that can be the "we" that Cat Brooks referred to? Check out the website:
- no leaders or members identified. - "is a group of concerned and committed institutions, organizations and individuals" - none are actually identified to be members of this group
- seeks money
- is NOT not-for-profit
- seeks to end state sanctioned murder and violence against Black, Brown and Poor people. Gee, I did not know Jerry Brown sanctioned this! Or is it the Feds? Great buzzwords that make it sound like a vast conspiracy with some shadow group wanting to kill all these people. Really?
-writes and posts everything anonymously
Seems like this ATPT is nothing more than Cat Brooks trying to look like more than Cat Brooks.
I appreciate the clear and constructive thoughts from Kai Chang. Seek a way to do things differently. A way that will help send a clear message from fine, upstanding people that want things to be better. That want to be heard. Get press and publicity that will make people want to be more supportive.
Or, keep doing stupid things that create environments to be conducive to violence, blaming the bad on others, and facilitating people running amok in the night. Get bad press and publicity. Get less support than ever.
David Cohen's comment about the incoherence of a key paragraph is quite on point. One thing seems be clear - bodily harm (to protestors, not necessarily police) seems off limits and vandalism and property damage do not seem to be off limits.
For once, it would be nice if protesters stayed off the freeway so that no one gets killed or hurt. The "real" protesters can take photos of violent people and vandals and step up to identify them so the police can put them in jail. Protest their actions right there on the spot. After all, they are "independent" and not part of your deal.
Peaceful assembly please without excuses.
Well, golly. If only we knew all it took was a nicely worded editorial to stop vandals from using well-meaning protests as cover for their crimes.
The really simple thing for protest organizers to do is to set a concrete end time for a protest/rally in the late afternoon, about an hour before sunset. By doing so, you'll have had the publicity you wanted: During the day you do have that impact of a civic action stopping business as usual. By being during the day, you can have more people participate, like seniors and children. You'll have finished in time to make the national news on the east coast. You'll give local west coast stations plenty of time to organize a report, for papers to cover it for the morning news. You'll have well-lit images for the cover stories and news leads.
Nothing good happens when protests go into the night -- it's too dark to get a good picture for the news, you won't get into the news until tomorrow, by which time the narrative from the vandalism may become the focus. Less regular citizens can participate (work/school/child obligations the next day). The only thing it does is give vandals and looters both crowds and the cover of darkness to perpetrate their crimes.

Infowars- Proving David Hannum right on a daily basis
I said no, not because I thinkit is wrong to shoot a big boy, but if you only hunt to shoot a so called trophy. To me an animal is not a trophy, it is food or beast of burden. I know too many men who seem to measure their manhood by the size of the deer they kill. I killed all does this year, and would have killed a buck, but the shots were never right.
A true hunter interested in conservation and welfare of the species will do his part and kill some females to keep things in balance and the herd healthy. If there are an over abundance of does, it leads to continued mating later in the year than normal, and later than normal births of fawns. The bucks kill themselves by chasing all that tail and losing fat reserves, which can lead to their death in the harsh winter months, and the fawns that are born later may not be strong enough to make it thru the coldest part of winter.
It creates a bad situation for the deer herd, and can ultimately cause a population crash.

It should be done only to be used as food and I so voted. The fact is I stopped hunting several years ago, even for food. I love getting out in the hills but I guess I just lost my taste for shooting animals.
By gosh, if you can't eat it, don't shoot it. I wouldmake an exception for ground hogs.........

I'll just go ahead and post my vote based on a number of things.
YES, it is ok to hunt animals purely for sport and trophies, as long as populations are not endangered.
My reasoning behind this vote may have more to do with where we live...and deer specifically. In these parts, they are a nuisance animal. What I'll take down personally gets taken down for the meat and not the mount. In a way....I'm against game farming and paying for a trophy in a rather controlled environment. I think every true hunter should find what they're after in the wild and do their own work for the purpose. Again...this is going to rely mainly on where you live and conditions. Never waste edible meat...either leave it for the coyotes, or donate it to a local shelter. Sometimes it's what happens after the kill that's most important. Don't forget that there are still hungry right here at home. If you take a trophy, just remember that, and give credit where credit is due. I'm just saying......the only thing that could be wrong with a "trophy" hunt would be not finding a place for the other 90% of the take. Just my opinion. Plenty of folks in need especially this time of year.
I voted "NO, if one kills an animal, it should at least be used in part for "useful" purposes like food."
I don't hunt. Never been into it. But I don't agree with trophy hunting. I do, however, think if you own a farm and varmint are destroying your crops, you have every right to kill them, because it's for a specific purpose other than "for fun".
Just my opinion of course. I love animals. I'd have a difficult time purposely killing something that's not doing me any harm. But I also love me some red meat, and deer meat :)
EDIT: After reading other posts, using the animals as a trophy is fine as long as the meat is used. I'm only against hunting for the sole purpose of using it as a trophy.

I voted the first, by mistake, but I feel it's ok as long as the animal gets used for food.
Better to die on your feet, than to live on your knees.
I voted no, because the wording of the poll implied that the meat of trophies would not be used. I have laways been a meat hunter and you can't eat horns, no matter how big they are.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
^^ Correct. The first option is meant to imply that no meat would be used for food. For example, old African hunts where animals of all sorts were hunted simply for sport (or for the "trophy").
This still happens, but nowadays the hunters will donate the meat to a nearby village, who can survive off the meat for a few weeks. (this scenario would fall under the "NO" option). If you hunt and eat the meat, but also use it as a trophy, that still falls under NO.
I hunt on a family owned ranch, so we are big on the management aspect. Most of the bucks I shoot need to be culled...older spikes, missing brow tines, etc. and does. We of course shoot the cull bucks to get their genes out of the pool to help produce nicer bucks. I like taking a nice big buck every once in a while. I do eat everything I kill.
If I were hunting on a lease, I'd try to get the bigger bucks. I do see the side of trophy hunters, and I think that almost all of them eat the trophy deer they kill also. I am against someone shooting a buck just for the rack and not using the rest of the animal.
I do shoot coyotes just for sport, and also to keep our deer herd populated. I leave them lay. There's no useful part of them unless they have a nice pelt.
I shoot feral hog for population control. Used to eat them, but the meat isn't very good, and we shoot too many of them. They are destroying the land, so we shoot them for population control.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
i kill an animal, i eat it, unless its a dog or cat i kill in self defense, snake is especially tasty cooked on an open fire, and yes i have actually eaten a snake, the meat was mostly all muscle, no fat, and it tasted better than any chicken i have eaten, at least in my opinion.
"The value you put on the lost will be determined by the sacrifice you are willing to make to seek them until they are found."
Don't forget the garlic and butter for sauteing the snake. MMMMmmmmmm
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
I hunt for trophies, yes, but I'm not gonna shoot anything if the carcass won't be harvested. If I shoot a trophy deer or turkey, it will be eaten by someone and it will be mounted. If the freezer's full or if I won't be able to donate the meat, out comes the camera.
A CCW is like a parachute; if you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again.

Toffee Talk
Gourmet Candies
"Pieces of Conversation"
Catherine took note and no, she won't reveal the family recipe, but she shares her delicious knowledge through CJ's Toffee Talk. She started this sweet venture with the help of family and friends, who have helped spread the word throughout the San Francisco area. We heard about it from Carolyn Porter (left), a friend Jules met in Dublin (and Toffee Talk's web designer) who arranged for Jules and Catherine to meet this past summer. Carolyn's entire family is crazy about Toffee Talk, including her health-nut husband Tony, who's not usually into sweets. They're not the only people who find it irresistible: This summer, CJ's Toffee Talk won two awards at the venerable Marin County Fair (a blue ribbon for the best toffee plus best-in-show for the entire confections division).
Catherine calls her toffee "pieces of conversation" because you cannot eat one without comment. We can attest to that at Daily Grommet, where we devoured Catherine's artisanal toffee treats and then couldn't stop talking about how delicious they were. From San Francisco to our East Coast offices and everywhere in between, we think Catherine's toffee is about to make a big splash in candyland. Psst…the gossip on the street is all about Toffee Talk…pass it on. Read More Read Less
Grommet Launch Conversation
My name is Catherine Hughes and I am Chief Toffee Talker and Founder of Toffee Talk ~ Little Pieces Of Conversation. I recently made my passion for cooking treats for those I love, my profession and left the corporate world behind. I decided to take my godmother's toffee recipe, the advice of all those who encouraged me and the incredible chatter about how delicious my toffee is and launch Toffee Talk. This journey has been a dream come true and being featured as a Daily Grommet is the icing on the cake. Once you try my award winning toffee you will love it, want to talk about it, and share it with your family and friends! See what everyone is talking about and order some "Little Pieces of Conversation" today!
I've been looking for a gift to give some of my hire's for their first day of work. THIS would be a nice gift to have on their desk on day one!!!
Absolutely!! Toffee Talk would be a perfect welcoming gift on the first day!!
At my office, we are very familiar with the magic this toffee weaves! The phrase "can't eat just one" will never be associate with chips again, once you have tried Toffee Talk.
If you ever want to be someone's best friend, get out of the doghouse, make a good first impression, be the best neighbor on the block…just give a gift of Toffee Talk and you are golden!
~ Huge Fan, Jaki
Toffee Talk has been a wonderful gift option for my clients and coworkers. I have worked directly with Catherine to select the right size and packaging to send gifts to clients and coworkers. Susan (SkillSoft Corporation)
Catherine's toffee is fabulous! She shared with us on several occassions in the office and we all can never get enough. I plan to share with my family as gifts during the upcoming holidays! A wonderful gift for all occassions. So glad I was able to experience Catherine's toffee.
When someone asks me, what's your favorite type of sweet, Toffee Talk immediately pops into my head! It's not just the taste, but the texture is amazing also! I've told Catherine, but I'll say it again, Toffee Talk is better than See's and in my opinion, it's the best toffee ever, hands down!
I give Toffee Talk to all of my girls' teachers for the holidays and they just rave! I cannot promise better grades for you kids, but...
Toffee Talk is the best TOFFEE your lips will ever touch. Catherine has created a top notch product and goes above and beyond to serve her clients, friends, and family. I continuously order Toffee Talk to relive the moment of tasty goodness. So go ahead, indulge...it's worth every bite!!!
C.J's Peanut toffee has the East Coast screaming for more ...
Can't wait for the distribution set up
Wait until you taste Catherine's amazing Toffee Talk - peanut is my favorite! It brings a smile to my face because I can't stop thinking of Mike Myers on SNL playing his mother-in-law Linda Richman on "Coffee Talk". "Talk amongst yourselves" and spread the word about this wonderful confection that Catherine has created. Congratuations Catherine on being featured on The Daily Grommet today.
Love love love your toffee; it is..... Yummy-licious
Catherines' Toffee Talk is the best!!!!! I love it and highly recommend it to all my fellow chocalcholics! Yummeee.
Great to see so many of my fans here on The Daily Grommet site and thank you for your kind words. It is the sweet pleasure you give yourself and others ~~ and with Toffee Talk it starts the conversation ~~ people want to tell others about how wonderful it is.
The toffee is absolutely yummy...my favorite is the pecan and red walnut. I bought a bag and started munching on it on my drive home. By the time I got home....all gone! So delicious and I keep coming back for more!
Best toffee I have ever had! I sent a tin to my Father who is a candy hoarder- he enjoys sweets but can make a box last forever. His toffee was gone in two days. The perfect gift.
Love your toffee especially the one with the red walnut! Yummy!!
Being British, I pretty much grew up surrounded by various and numerous kinds of toffee and never cared for it much, however, my wife brought home a pound of this and and it was not enough. Bravo! I'm a huge fan.
I love munching on this toffee. A truly superior product, and so beautifully presented. A perfect gift for almost any occasion. I would be hard-pressed to pick a favorite, but if I must, I guess it would be the almond. Look for my orders Chief Toffee Talker!
Love this web site and I really love the toffee from Toffee Talk. I think the red walnut is the best!
Brace yourself for the most mouthwatering piece of 'deliciousness' you will ever experience. Seriously, no one can eat just one piece of Catherine's toffee. It is melt-in-your mouth incredible! Beautiful packaging for all sorts of occasions, and a great hostess gift.
Its expetionally delecious toffee with the right cruch to it. I love it.
This toffee is exceptional! My entire family loves it! It is always the perfect gift - mouth watering and beautifully packaged.
Fabulous, Catherine! I've had the opportunity to try all of the flavors and I'll just have to try more before I pick my favorite. They are all so good.
This is the real deal! Have had deliveries to both New York and California for dinner parties - and without question, Toffee Talk is a hit coast to coast! If you know a true toffee lover - they need to try this!!!
I absolutely love this Toffee... I own a flower and gift shop ( J Miller Flowers and Gifts in Oakland) and place Toffee Talk in each gourmet gift basket that we send out for our clients. It is a hit with everyone that receives this delicious treat!
Two weeks ago we hosted some Japanese students and I even sent 6 festive packages to their families in Fukuoka, Japan!!!
I definitely will be placing another order for the upcoming holidays!!
Thanks Catherine for a FABULOUS product!!!
Can't stop talking about Toffee Talk. It's by far the best toffee I've ever had!!! Once that package is opened it's a struggle not to finish off the whole thing. I know oink oink oink all the way home.
I'm ABSOLUTELY addicted to this AMAZING toffee. The texture is Perfect, it just melts in your mouth, leaving you wanting for more. I have shared these AMAZING toffee treats with my employee's at dress, they can't wait for me to bring them more. They tell me they would rather have Toffee over coffee. These tins are a BIG hit at my son's school and even my health conscious Bikram yoga friends, can never get enough. If you want to be a big hit at any party, bring a tin of toffee, instead of wine. This toffee is Hand made with love....I'm thinking, little pieces of conversation will make this Holiday Season even sweeter!
Ditto, Ditto, Ditto -- this toffee is the best. We don't give a party without having some Toffee Talk as part of our gifts to our guests -- you really have to try it to truely understand how wonderful it is. ENJOY.
Hi my name is Sam, I'm 9 years old. All my friends at school love Catherine's toffee. My second grade teacher has a big sweet tooth, so I always knew what to give her as a gift. When ever we have a bag or two in our house, I have to hide it from my mom, otherwise there would not be any left, for the rest of us. This is really good Toffee!
I should know, I'm a kid.
Catherine's toffee is the best ever! Once you have tried this you will never want another type of toffee! Adding it to my Christmas baskets!
I love Toffee and this is the best!
Talk about Toffee! After trying just a sample I'm sending Toffee Talk to all my clients.
What a day at Toffee Talk HQ. It has been a pleasure working with everyone at The Daily Grommet to launch on your wonderful website. I plan on doing all my holiday shopping at this one stop shopping site.
The first time I ate a peice of the toffee, I calmed down, I didn't hurry, I didn't worry, I just enjoyed the conversation. It was delightful.
Catherine's Toffee speaks for itself!Exquisite and absolutely delicious!I received some as a gift initially...and was thrilled! Now,it's my gift to give...and the response has been overwhelming!
Yes,there is quite a buzz around "Toffee Talk"...
Thank you, Catherine!!
Toffee lovers look out- this is the best! Great crunch, deliciously buttery, just the perfect sweetness and never skimpy on the chocolate : ))) You have to get 2 when you give gifts - one for you and the other for friends- true story!
Great care package for that student in college, can't wait to receive it in my mail box every month.
Also amazing photographic advertisement
Thanks to all of the fans of Toffee Talk for stopping by today! We have been fairly warned - these toffees turn people into raving fans looking toward their next chance to share a nibble of toffee!
Toffee Talk is the perfect corporate Christmas gift! We sent tins to all our clients last year. Everyone loved it!
In the last year, I have given Toffee Talk as gifts dozens of times. In about 6-8 cases, the receiver has told me that toffee is their favorite treat and that they're either self-proclaimed "toffee snobs" or that they have secret unsurpassed family toffee recipes. I'm happy to share that amazingly in EACH case, some regrettably so, they have succumbed to Toffee Talk! It hasn't been any one thing in particular, but rather how the toffee ingredients complement one another. Toffee Talk is a can't-miss-hit gift surely to please. Don't trust me..trust the "toffee snobs". ;-)
I adore Toffee Talk! The secret recipe and all of the natural ingredients make it so delicious! I hope that it will be available in Europe at some point. It would be a huge success, there is just nothing else like Toffee Talk!
Toffee Talk is the ideal Teacher Gift! My son gave beautiful gift bags to thank his teachers for writing college rec letters, and they loved it! Several said they hid the candy from their families so that they could savor it themselves!
What a fabulous 24 hours to have a spot to chat about Toffee Talk!!! and be a part of this "Citizen Commerce". I look forward to a long relationship with The Daily Grommet and lots of future orders!! The holidays are right around the corner and Toffee Talk is the perfect gift.
@Catherine/Chief Toffee Talker - and we have enjoyed featuring you and meeting your many fans! We also look forward to a wonderful ongoing relationship with you and your exquisite toffee.
Amazing toffee! I think Catherine is the "Toffee Whisperer". Magical!!
This toffee is the best! Pecan is my favorite, and I have to keep it in the basement as it is too easy to snack all day. I give it to my bookclub members at Christmas and they are waiting again.
i am thrilled that toffee talk is so successfull. english toffee is usually made with almonds| but cathys idea to also use walnuts', peanuts, or pecans is brilliant. watch out see's!
"meltingly good toffee" is a good descripton. Red walnut is the best toffee I've ever had. Good job toffee talk!
Sensational toffee! Buy it and be happy.
I received my Toffee Talk as a gift and what a wonderful, delicious surprise! The best ever - and a true reflection of the wonderful person who thought of me.
Catherine gave me a bag as a gift to take home... one bite... and the entire bag was eaten on the span of the Bay Bridge. It's the most delicious candy I've ever eaten... honest!! The red walnut is exceptional.
Catherine's toffee is the BEST!! We have given it as gifts and everyone loves it. I keep her Toffee Topping around to add to almost any dessert - FANTASTIC! I can't keep the toffee around because we eat it too fast and then want more!
Catherine's toffee is amazing! I brought some home to my family and friends and they loved it. I used the Toffee Topping to sprinkle on cupcakes, which was awesome. The toffee truly is a piece of conversation because I cannot stop talking about it to people.
I stopped at the Toffee Talk booth at the Junior League of San Francisco's Home Tour this past weekend and sampled their wares---DELICIOUS, buttery toffee--yum!
Does the toffee crumble product contain a mixture of the different types or just one ?

But is it made of... wood? A 13.3g rimless shrimpie repository
Display tank
i would personally skip on the moss balls, and get some cool moss, maybe fissidens? Just my .02 cents on that. Pics! ( followed your link from nano-reef and surprise, i am also on planted tank & nr)
Yeah, the balls tend to just get stringy if they don't move around in current, which this tank has little of. The AC30 doesn't seem to be filtering near its capacity, but the plants in it show some good growth! And I haven't even stuck the Amazon sword into the substrate yet, it's just been hanging since I put the tank together lol
i recently switched my failing shrimp tank (15g) to all sponge filters. I must say, i should have done this from the start. I will be re doing the tank soon. Looking at a 10w led flood light, and making it strictly a shrimp tank (started at as a planted tank). Leave the filter running till the sponge filters get established if you do switch them. PICS!!! (followed your link from nano-reefs, ironically we are both on the same sites)
Only thing I don't like about sponge filters is the bubbling at the surface and the 'spray', but at least it isn't salt spray like in a marine tank. :)
I took the guppy from my tank at work home for Christmas break (won't be back there til next week, so had to babysit him) and he's seeming at home in here, except my two cats have previously decided that the tank is their new water bowl and refuse to drink from their actual water bowl, and when they noticed him, they both immediately started watching him lol. They swat at him from time to time but very quickly realize OMG THERE'S WATER IN THERE and run off!
i run a glass top on my tank, so i don't get any splash outside the tank. Currently housing a birstlenose pleco in my 15g shrimp tank...kinda funny, he just hides out all the time
do you have a shallow rimless 80g reef?
opps nvm saw you had it in your sig.
nice plan!~
So revisiting this after almost two years lol. Not too much has changed. Still using the same filtration, though I added a Koralia nano for more flow, moar flow moar bettar. I've had a Sunsun HW-302 here for the longest time but never hooked it up. I've got glass lily pipes (with the 'violet' outflow) for use with it, and going to use an inline CO2 diffuser.
I've been debating CO2 for a while now. A while back I bought a Milwaukee 957 regulator, but I've read mixed reviews, so I'm getting rid of it. I bought a Concoa 212-3301 regulator on eBay for $72, just need to add a check valve, bubble counter, needle valve, and solenoid to it, so looking at less than ~$250 total. Looking at needle valves now, not sure which I should get, thinking Ideal 54-1-12? Not 100% sure, there are so many choices it is difficult to narrow it all down and locate the proper parts.
Right now the substrate is black diamond blasting sand, that'll be switched out to Caribsea Moonlight and Tahitian moon sand mix after I get some biofiltration media on the tank, don't want to remove it all since it houses the biofilter.
Plants, I haven't really added much. Just some anubias a few months back, Staurogyne repens, and my peacock moss all died out but is now coming back from some that I had sitting in a bucket, unlit and covered by another bucket, for six months. There is also some kind of stem plant that I got with the blue pearl shrimpies, I have no clue what it is but it seems to like the tank.
LEDs will be determined. Pretty sure it'll be a mix of warm, neutral white, lime, blue, royal blue, and violet, mix of Rebel ES and custom violets. Working with Dave at Nanobox now to figure out what should look best.
The tank looks good! So does your reef, that LED is insane! Makes me want to start saving up.. Too bad SW tanks cost more than my car..
Also, in this tank's news, so I had a shrimpie decide he wanted to eat some algae growing on the HOB filter. He was up OUT of the water snacking. Never seen one do that!
This was the tank 12/6/2014
And 12/14/2014
And this was 1/3/2015
So I did a MASSIVE trim. This is 1/7/2015, haven't taken any more recent pics.
Tank looks good, love the shrimp on the filter haha. Always have liked bowfronts
Got my new light finished a little while back. http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=840722
PAR at 50% (lime at 12.5%)
This past weekend I put a SunSun HW-302 on the tank with a set of lily pipes. Once the thing was packed somewhat loosely with filter floss, flow is seriously cut back. I had to put a Koralia Nano 425 in the tank to keep flow where it needs to be.
It could also be from the lily pipes used - I could only get 13mm instead of 17mm. I know that it would kill the flow a little bit, but it can't be THAT much. Not sure if I want to get a 17mm set to see if I am hampering it or just get an HW-303. The only problem with 17mm lily pipes is that the inflow are usually ~30cm tall - too long for this 12" tall tank lol.
New pics. Added a carpet of Staurogyne repens and some sort of stem plants. It has been raining here lately, and the ditches are beginning to hold water, so soon I'll have more of a local species of Ludwigia than I'll know what to do with lol.
Did I mention this tank is also the cats' water bowl? They downright refuse to drink out of anything else.

BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's economy has slowed for the seventh straight quarter, growing 7.4 percent year-on-year in the third quarter of 2012, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced Thursday.
The figure was lower than the 7.6-percent growth seen in the second quarter and the first quarter's 8.1-percent growth but was still in line with economists' predictions that third-quarter economic output would grow between 7.4 and 7.5 percent.
China's GDP reached 35.35 trillion yuan (5.61 trillion U.S. dollars) in the first three quarters, NBS spokesman Sheng Laiyun said at a press conference.
"The GDP grew 7.7 percent in the first three quarters and the economy is generally stable," Sheng said.
During the first half, the GDP grew by 7.8 percent.
"Compared with the first half, we have seen some improvements in the third quarter," he said, citing a trade rebound and other major economic indicators showing that growth has picked up.
NBS data released Thursday showed that total retail sales in September hit 1.82 trillion yuan, up 14.2 percent year on year, with a month-on-month growth rate of 1.46 percentage points.
Industrial value-added output grew 9.2 percent in September, up 0.3 percentage points compared to August.
Fixed asset investment rose 20.5 percent year-on-year to 25.69 trillion yuan in the first nine months, with growth accelerating slightly by 0.1 percentage point from the first half.
"We are fully confident that the economy will meet its growth target of 7.5 percent this year," Sheng said.
China lowered its growth target for 2012 to 7.5 percent amid sluggish demand and global economic woes.
"We are seeing positive factors that will drive a rebound for the economy," said Tang Jianwei, senior finance analyst at the Bank of Communications, China's fifth-largest lender.
China's exports saw a surprise surge in September, rising 9.9 percent to 186.35 billion U.S. dollars. Export growth sharply increased from 2.7 percent in August, according to customs data. Imports grew 2.4 percent to 158.68 billion U.S. dollars, ending three months of consecutive drops.
Tang predicted that exports will continue recovering in the fourth quarter on improvements in the EU and U.S. economies following a new round of quantitative easing (QE3) in the United States and the launch of a permanent bailout fund, the European Stability Mechanism, in the eurozone that aims for financial stability in the region.
Tang said a rise in people's disposable incomes and a stable employment situation further paved the way for recovery, which will be boosted by more consumption and a faster pace of investment following an upcoming leadership transition.
NBS data showed that China created 10.24 million new jobs in the first quarter, exceeding the annual target of ten million. During the same period, the disposable incomes of urban residents rose 9.8 percent, while those of rural residents grew 12.3 percent.
Tang predicted that the GDP will rise 7.8 percent this year based on the nation's growth-stabilizing efforts.
"We are maintaining a 7.7-percent growth forecast for the year and a similar forecast for 2013," said Alaistair Chan, an economist at Moody's Analytics.
The country has made stabilizing growth a top priority this year amid the economy's downward pressure. The government has expedited export tax rebates for enterprises as a way to stabilize trade. It has also approved a raft of investment projects to shore up growth.
The central bank has twice cut the reserve requirement ratio for banks and lowered benchmark interest rates this year.
During recent talks on China's economic condition, Premier Wen Jiabao said China's economic growth has started to stabilize and witnessed positive changes.
However, Wen said that the foundation for a stabilized economy is not solid enough due to significant drops in corporate profits and fiscal revenue growth.
China's inflation eased to 1.9 percent in September from 2 percent in August. Despite the lessened pressure, Sheng said the country should continue to be wary, warning of imported inflation likely to be caused by QE3 and loose monetary policies in the yen and euro regions.
Sheng Laiyun said that the nation will continue to prioritize growth-stabilizing efforts while pushing forward economic restructuring and industrial upgrading.
The NBS's preliminary data showed that the tertiary industry grew 7.9 percent to 15.5 trillion yuan in the first three quarters, accounting for 43.8 percent of the GDP, up 1.2 percentage points from one year ago.
Zhuang Jian, an economist at the Asian Development Bank, said cost-effectiveness will improve if growth is increasingly powered by restructuring, the healthy development of small- and micro-sided companies and more private investment.
China's Q3 GDP slows to 7.4 pct
BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's economy grew 7.4 percent year-on-year in the third quarter of 2012, slower from 7.6 percent in the second quarter and 8.1 percent in the first, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced Thursday.
The growth rate has slowed for the seventh straight quarter. However, it was in line with economists' predictions that third-quarter economic output would grow by between 7.4-7.5 percent in the world's second-largest economy. Full story
China's retail sales up 14.1 pct in first nine months
BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's retail sales grew 14.1 percent year on year to 14.94 trillion yuan (2.37 trillion U.S. dollars) in the first three quarters of this year, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Thursday.
The total retail sales in September hit 1.82 trillion yuan, up 14.2 percent over the same period last year. Full story
China's fixed-asset investment up 20.5 pct in first nine months
BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's fixed asset investment rose 20.5 percent year-on-year to 25.69 trillion yuan (4.08 trillion U.S. dollars) in the first nine months of 2012, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Thursday.
Investment in property development climbed 15.4 percent, down 1.2 percentage points from the first half, the NBS said. Full story
China's industrial output up 10% in Jan-Sept
BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's industrial value-added output grew 10 percent year-on-year in the first nine months of 2012, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Thursday.
The rate of growth was 0.5 percentage point lower than the first half of the year. Full story
Fewer Chinese cities see home price rises
BEIJING, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- Fewer Chinese cities saw home price rises in September from August as the country continued efforts to curb property prices and speculation, it was revealed on Thursday.
In September, 31 cities, down from 36 in August, out of a statistical pool of 70 major cities recorded higher new home prices than a month earlier, according to figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). Full story

Hope you guys can give me a heads up, since I'm new to this.
I have an '05 with the auto trans (1500mi), and recently since the weather has been getting colder I have been experiencing a hesitation or judder when accelerating from a stop when the car has been sitting for awhile.
It only does it 3 or 4 times, but its rythmic. It feels as though someone is letting off the gas a bit and then stepping back on it. Once the car shifts to second, its fine. And if you immediately stop and put the car in park or just accelerate from drive, it wont do it any longer... Only when cold, and only once. It's not bad per-say, but just want to know it's normal without having to make an appt. at the dealer.
Did a search, nothing...

Pandemonium prevailed in Tau Devi Lal Stadium here when thousands of spectators vandalised the wrestling ring, electronics display boards and even the cricket pitch when international wrestler Dilip Singh Rana alias Khali — slated to make an appearance — did not show up on Sunday evening.
Children and women ran for their safety inside the stadium, where about 100 bouncers clashed with the spectators.
There were no police personnel in sight.
The event "Yodhaon Ka Maha Sangram" (War of the champions) was co-organised by fashion designer Sanjana Jon to fund a charity organisation for children.
A fashion show was also scheduled at the venue as part of the programme.
The organisers later claimed that Khali did not turn up at the venue as a sports channel with which he had a contractual obligation, reportedly barred him making the appearance.
Amit Swami, Khali's spokesman denied the wrestler had signed any with the organisers of the event.
"We had clarified verbally to the organisers about 10 days back that Khali would not be able to attend the event and we also had returned them the money," said Swami.
"Despite that the organisers went on to publicise Khali's supposed appearance for reasons best known to them," Swami said over phone.
Wrestlers, including those from South Africa, and Bollywood actor Sharad Saxena were evacuated by the police from the stadium as spectators turned violent and started hurling bottles at them.
Police arrested one of the organisers, D S Babbar, and booked him on charges of cheating and breaching the trust of spectators, who claimed that the organisers sold tickets in Delhi and many towns of Haryana, including Gurgaon, in the name of Khali.
A Gurgaon resident, Kulbhushan Bhardwaj, on whose complaint the police registered the FIR, claimed that the tickets carried Khali's picture but did not show a price.
The tickets were sold for anywhere between Rs. 300 and Rs. 5,000 each.
Many people were seen black marketeering the tickets near the stadium, said Bhardwaj.
Bhardwaj alleged that as per the schedule given in the tickets, the show was to start at 6.00pm but when Khali did not appear even till 10.00pm, the spectators turned furious.
Gurgaon police commissioner S S Deswal said the organisers had not received a no-objection-certificate from his department nor did they ask for the security cover.

That doesn't necessarily mean Viacom will skimp on spending where needed, CEO Philippe Dauman told investors at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia Conference. For example, Paramount has a new Transformers film planned for next year that has "a very high budget but very low risk. Same with Mission: Impossible and some of the other franchises." With new versions of its latest franchise, World War Z, "we will alleviate the risk by bringing in co-financing." Broadly speaking, though, "we have a history even in tough times of maintaining or growing margins" and that means keeping "a tight lid on expenses, including in programming." At the movie studio Dauman expects to distribute about 15 films a year including three animated titles in 2015. But he adds that he's "excited" about next month's Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa with Johnny Knoxville, which Dauman calls "a fun movie, and a profitable one." He's also optimistic about Paramount's revived television production operation. "They will work with our own networks, with third party networks and there's a lot of opportunity now to grow it organically." Asked about the possibility of pay TV cord cutting, Dauman — like other programmers — says he's not worried. "Overall it's a healthy system. The value being provided to consumers continues to increase" although he acknowledged that "sure, people would like to pay less." Nor does he fear that Congress will support Sen. John McCain's effort to promote a la carte sales. "When you explain what would happen in an a la carte world, it's not good for consumers….People are fundamentally rational once you talk to them, and I expect that everything that will unfold will happen in the marketplace, not from Washington."
Viacom CEO Vows To Promote Profits By Controlling Movie And TV Costs
5 Comments
Three animated titles in 2015! The market for animation is already over-saturated. Risk is going to go up, not down.
In the long run, bean counters invariably under perform their bolder counterparts. Viacom is doomed to under perform under dullard Dauman.
"A tight lid on expenses" also means they are not spending on paper, ink, & toner cartridges.
I for one would actually like an a la carte plan for my TV subscription. There's very few channels, and shows, I watch regularly and would totally prefer only having to pay for those ones instead of having to sign up for a particular bundle package just because it contains those channels. It would certainly be more cost effective for me.
for starters they could cut back on Dauman's $50m salary, then move onto the bloated middle and senior management at Paramount and MTV etc
they barely make any movies right now so hard to see how this "new" strategy will take effect

"Under Cover of Darkness" is reportedly scheduled for a Feb. 9 release, according to 107.7 The End's Twitter feed. In my eyes, that's the landmark date that I'm looking forward to most.
But earlier this morning, Rough Trade posted a promo pic of The Strokes as well as the tracklisting. I guess that's noteworthy, even though we don't have the corresponding songs yet.
The tracklisting is…
'Angles' Tracklisting:
1. Machu Picchu
2. Under Cover of Darkness
3. Two Kinds of Happiness
4. You're So Right
5. Taken For A Fool
6. Games
7. Call Me Back
8. Gratisfaction
9. Metabolism
10. Life Is Simple In The Moonlight
So what do you think your favorite song will be? I'm going to go with Life Is Simple In The Moonlight Machu Picchu. I'm a sucker for rock bands using hip-hop beats (15 Step being the perfect example).

Hello, Im Mac with Double Tap Shooting School in Oklahoma. I look forward to reading the posts from this forum as a way to help me better understand the needs of students in training, finding my downfalls or anything Im not covering that I need to be, or just some good old picture posting of mine is bigger than yours. I am former Military, Law Enforcement and along with firearms instruction am currently into private security. I have been shooting since birth, started out wanting to do nothing but long range, but have progressed into a CQB mindset as most engagements are up close. Long range is a skill to have, however I believe that most engagements be it in the Military, LE or as a civilian are up close and personal. I look forward to seeing what the members of this forum can teach me, and Ill throw in my 2 cents from time to time. For the mods that are going another guy here to advertise, great! Im not here for that, we get over 100 students a month which is almost more than I can handle, Im not here for that Mac

Carmel Valley Dog Park Up for Discussion Again Monday
CARMEL VALLEY, Calif. - The issue of a dog park being placed in Carmel Valley will be up for discussion again on Monday at a Land Use Advisory Committee meeting.
The dog park has been a hot issue for Carmel Valley residents for a year now. They think traffic and noise from the park would become a major issue.
Residents also say the park will bring the home values down in the area, but dog park investors are confident they will gain more public support after the project is finished.
If you're interested in attending the meeting, it will be held at Saint Phillips Lutheran Church, across from the Saints Episcopal day school, Monday at 6:30 p.m.
There will be a visit of the site where the dog park is supposed to go beforehand at 4:00 p.m.

Things Get Ugly Early In Buffalo
The Bison came right back to score another 2 runs in the bottom of the 4th, on a double by Figueroa and a 2-run homer by Duda. Gallagher also gave up a single in the 5th, and another walk to Figueroa in the 6th. He finished his day's work having allowed 9 runs (8 earned) on 9 hits and 3 walks over 6 innings. He had thrown 94 pitches (62 strikes).The Indians managed only one hit over the 5th and 6th innings, a single by d'Arnaud into right field, but he was erased in a double play. The Tribe went down in order in the 6th, then threatened again in the 7th. C Eric Fryer walked and CF Gorkys Hernandez singled with one out. They both moved into scoring position when pinch-hitter Andy Marte grounded out to second, but a fly out ended the inning. The Tribe...

The secret to achieving a salon-quality manicure at home? It's all about the prep work. Tweezerman's Cuticle Pusher and Nail Cleaner helps you get smooth, tidy cuticles and clean nails. Next step: nail polish!
Tweezerman always makes great products, this one is no exception to that. I do wish the under-nail cleaner side was just a little smaller. It works perfect for hands, but it is just a little too big to clean under toes. Other than that, it's perfect. Will probably have this for 20 years at least.4
I've had this tool for over a year and it has held up well over the test of time. The cuticle pusher works wells and is far more sanitary then those throw away wooden ones you sometimes see in drugstores. It also works wonders in for cleaning out any junk that has built up underneath the nail.4
Well, this is a pretty decent product. I initially thought it was like the one my nail tech used on me the other day, but it wasn't exactly like her tool. It did work effectively, but I wish the thinner side did more than just clean underneath nails. However, it's a pretty nice tool.4

How to Build a Chicken Coop
A few years ago we purchased the oldest, ugliest small shed I've ever seen. We paid $75, which I thought was a lot for a piece of nothing, but hubby assured me that he could make something from it. When you are homesteading you don't always have the best options so you make do with what you can buy or get.
Last year I told you how to build a chicken coop and how we had fixed up the inside to make it a nice little coop for our hens. Hubby invented a feeder and nests with scraps of wood and we used some old barnwood to create another layer of wall inside and make the door. We also used old feed bags to insulate the walls for wind protection.
This year we have expanded on how to build a chicken coop, and we've focused on fixing up the outside of the coop since we plan to sell our home soon. No one would be buying it if the coop still looked like it did! I was happy that it was a decent, functioning chicken coop, but the outside needed some TLC. Let me show you...
Ya, words aren't really necessary to tell you how ugly that thing was. It worked though and we made due with it just fine until we could afford to fix it up!
In the last 3 years we also build a garage on our property. In the process of building, it was blown down, twice. (No, I'm not kidding.) We saved all the somewhat bent, scrap steel to be able to tin the chicken shed.
After just a day of work and buying a little more trim, the chicken coop now looks like this:
Much better don't you think? We kept the old barn wood door on the front because it looks pretty neat and now it matches our garage and house! Since we used scrap steel for this project and only purchased trim we kept our costs very low. (And if you don't happen to have scrap steel on hand because your garage didn't blow down, you can always ask around or watch the bargain area at Menards!)

i like that one!
A married couple is driving along a highway doing a steady 40 miles per hour. The wife is behind the wheel.
Her husband suddenly looks across at her and speaks in a clear voice. "I know we've been married for twenty years, but I want a divorce."
The wife says nothing, keeps looking at the road ahead but slowly increases her speed to 45 mph.
The husband speaks again. "I don't want you to try and talk me out of it," he says, "because I've been having an affair with your best friend, and she's a far better lover than you are."
Again the wife stays quiet, but grips the steering wheel more tightly and slowly increases the speed to 55.
He pushes his luck. "I want the house," he says insistently. Up to 60. "I want the car, too," he continues.
65 mph. "And," he says, "I'll have the bank accounts, all the credit cards and the boat!"
The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete bridge. This makes him nervous, so he asks her, "Isn't there anything you want?" The wife at last replies in a quiet and controlled voice. "No, I've got everything I need," she says. "Oh, really," he inquires, "so what have you got?"
Just before they slam into the wall at 65 mph, the wife turns to him and smiles. "The airbag."
