Sticks, Stones and Self-Esteem

Posted on February 19, 2009 by D3 Support

Coming to America?

Posted on February 18, 2009 by D3 Support

Two Attitudes

Posted on February 17, 2009 by D3 Support

Mean It

Posted on February 15, 2009 by D3 Support

Stimulate Me!

Posted on February 14, 2009 by D3 Support

Politicians say “stimulate spending.” This sounds like a good idea if you’re not a critical thinker. If you THINK for all of three seconds, you’ll soon recognize that it’s government doing the spending, with money government took from private individuals. … Continue reading →

Dealing With Another’s “Spin”

Posted on February 13, 2009 by D3 Support

Goals are an Everyday Thing

Posted on February 12, 2009 by D3 Support

“This is America”

Posted on February 11, 2009 by D3 Support

Do Something!

Posted on February 9, 2009 by D3 Support

“Feed Me, You Greedy SOBs!”

Posted on February 8, 2009 by D3 Support
