that there are that many loyal followers of Fox, then you certainly don't live in Nebraska.

Remember Johnny Carson's Floyd R. Turbo?

Well, Johnny was from Nebraska, you know? He had ample inspiration for Floyd R. Turbo. Typical Fox News viewer, I'd say.

I just about can't go to Applebee's because most of the big screen TVs out there are turned to Fox News. I almost gag on my food.

Well, the statements they get are from Wells Fargo, evidently.

They have decided they want to get out from under this bad mortgage. They haven't tried to modify the loan and have not considered a short sale.

I tried to get them to take measures under the Making Home Affordable Program

http://www.makinghomeaffordable.gov/pages/...

They do qualify for help there, but they just want out. They are thinking about entering a senior care facility. I think that's a good idea because they are both facing mobility issues.

I just wondered how they should go about walking away from this load (and what the ramifications could be).

It's a full-time residence in Oregon. I think it's a conventional loan (not VA or FHA to my knowledge).

She will be 84 years old next month. Her husband will be 78 in August.

They bought the house in July of 2007 for $155,000. Comparable properties in their small town are now selling for $40,000-$60,000.

What kind of advice does anyone have in dealing with and living through the foreclosure process?

that it tends to degrade the message. I know it probably shouldn't feel that way, but it does.

I've been looking for that clip online ever since I saw it on the program last night.

It's so funny. Yes, it's all about crushing the stereotypes. Just SO witty. I love it.

into an alternative school in 7th grade because he was the subject of bullying by a dozen or more kids. They had room for him in the alternative school; they didn't have room for a dozen kids, so in he went. He thrived in the atmosphere of stringent discipline of alternative school. He was taking community college night classes at the time.

if I want to see the President slammed, I can watch Faux News.

Constructive criticism is one thing.

This ain't it.

Most of the paper products I like are made by them (Bounty, Charmin, Puffs), but I don't know the status of their workers?

I don't, but it was postulated that it was so. It sounds reasonable to me that a guy wouldn't do this to her unless somehow provoked further than by her simply standing in a parking space.

If that isn't what happened, it can still be lesson not to hit.

I'd rather not be cited into court for assault by mutual consent, so I'm not going to hit someone, even if I feel threatened.

If I felt threatened, what I would do is get in my car and lock the doors. If I were on foot, I'd sit down on the ground and cover my head with my hands. Taking this posture lets someone know that you are not going to fight, and it can cool the situation. I know this from experience.

should be hitting another person.

If women want equality (and we do), then we should realize that we can't go around indiscriminately hitting men and expect it not to have ramifications.

Sadly, maybe it's too late for this woman, but the rest of us should take note.
