  • Who pulls the trigger? You?

    Thanks Prudie for the insigh into you twisted little mind. I really do mean little too. I thought I had seen it all untill a few minutes ago then............Bam, some low grade internet advice hack has to weight in on the matter of slandering a great democratic candidate and former First Lady of The United States of America.

  • Fake Letters this week.

    These letters have to be fake. I mean, the first two are straight out of the movies or off of the television. Letter #1 is about some random guy who has a fetish about being in diapers. CSI had the same thing on last season. Letter #2 is objecting to a supposed family ''tradition'' where an older unmarried sibling has to dance at the wedding of ...

  • Life and Death

    The answer Prudence gave to Life and Death about the care of monor children following both parents deaths was incomplete.

    Regarding the fiancee who refuses to be naked at night as long as there are children in the home: Islam addressed this matter 1400+ years ago. This is one translation of the Quran regarding this topic: 24:58 O ye who believe!

  • A Man's Rant: Spandex and Public viewing

    After going to the gym nearly everyday over the past couple weeks, I am compelled to rant on a matter of public decorum which is visually distracting but seems to escape all public mention. WEARING SPANDEX CLOTHING IN PUBLIC WITH NOTHING OVER IT IS IMMODEST, PROVOCATIVE, AND at the very least PUBLICLY OBTUSE and at worst PUBLICLY SALACIOUS. ...
