Offers / Re: Question About Credit Card Offers

« on: April 30, 2011, 09:57:55 am »Message ID: 346437

If you really want to do the pre-paid card, then honestly why not make money of it, FC has offers for them here. I think it is "Account Now", which by the way I did on here, and I even use the card. I am sure the "Account Now" offer is still on here too. I ONLY use pre-paid cards online. They are really great. One bit of advice for you though, is read all the charges and fees, be sure you want what ever one you are looking at. They all usually charge a monthly fee, which can be between $2-$9 a month. Some of them charge activation fees too. But yes if you get a prepaid card, then it is not like you have tons of money balance, for anyone to rip you off. Also I have found that the pre-paid card people work with you a lot more, than the actual credit card people when it comes to someone trying to charge you something you don't want to pay for. Oh also for anyone interested in them, and lets say you have bad credit or can't get a bank account, and etc... now a days, most pre-paid cards DO give you routing and account numbers, so you can also use the account as a checking account. Pay bills online as if you were using a checking account, even set up direct deposit to have your pay checks, or money put right onto your card and etc.... Oh also watch out for charges to like call them, or check balance and etc... some cards will charge you for these things. Like charge you per call to them, or per min, or charge you if you call to get a balance.

The one card/company I like the most, is one called GreenDot, the url is MyGreenDot.com or GreenDot.com anyway they do not charge you to call the, and their monthly fee is like $5, plus if you use ATM's in their network there is no ATM fee to withdraw money off the card. All their others fee's are low, if any, and their people have always been great, helpful, and etc...

My account has been at $24.60 for days now, and no matter what offer I do they just will not go through! I have been trying to get the last .40 cents I need to get my payout and it is just not working. I do not know what is going on... I understand some offers might not approve... but some of them that I have done.. there is just no reason why they are not approving. Like the download toolbars, or that "create a card etc..." I am doing them right, I am using new emails, and correct info... Just 40 damn cents... and can not get anything for days now... Even the little 15 cent offer things are not approving for me. Is something wrong with the site by chance? Is it because it is the weekend or something?

That does sound frustrating. Sometimes offers don't approve for me either, but it seems strange that you aren't getting any approvals at all. You might try clearing out your history and temporary internet files. Also, I've read in the forum that sometimes the toolbars and programs installed don't credit if you download them with Internet Explorer. So you may try Firefox. If that doesn't work, you might try to contant FC. There could be some other technical issue going on.

Thank you for the advice, but I have tried all of that, the cleaning of cache, cookies, files and etc... even tried them in firefox which I use mainly, and then after a couple of days of it not crediting I tried it in explorer also. I was posting here to see if anyone knew what was going on, before I try contacting them about it. BTW I have not just tried the toolbars and etc... I have tried the surveys, dailies, trials, instants, new, etc...

Debate & Discuss / Re: is the world coming to an end?

« on: April 27, 2011, 10:23:04 pm »Message ID: 345301

I honestly think no matter WHAT you believe in... if you look at the "signs" or what has been happening, and going on around you in recent times... then YES I think this is the "end of times".

If you know GOD, read your bible, know the bible and pay attention... then you should know or realize if this is not the "end of times" then it is not far off...

Even if you don't believe in GOD... still look at everything... look at the state of the world. Look at how close we are, and have been on the verge of a World War 3... and if you know anything about that, then you should know if there ever WAS a WW3 this world would not survive it. Just look at TV alone... and do not start yelling about freedom of speech when I say this... but just LOOK at what is allowed on TV now, versus even 10 years ago... 20, 50 years ago... Look at what this generation is being taught around them. Look at the LACK of values the average family brings their children up with. Look at all the violence, hatred, and intolerance around us. Look at what human beings are doing to each other. What is on the news every single day. Mothers killing their children, a person killing another person because they looked at them funny, shooting spree's almost becoming a monthly thing... People just don't value human life like they used to. So yeah I can see this being the "end of times" just based on this alone... because I can see the human race destroying itself, or most, just from maybe a WAR, or some other means one day soon.

As for nature... well either way you look at it... you might think GOD is behind this, or that mother nature is behind it, or that it is the human races fault... but however you look at it, it all comes down to the same thing... nature is not doing so well, and it is throwing bigger tantrums more and more often. Nature is kicking our asses all over the world, and nature could be the reason we are destroyed in the end, regardless if you believe GOD is behind it, human beings or just mother nature.

I personally believe that we are in the "end of times". I believe this has to do with GOD and the bible, but I also believe we human beings are playing our own part in it too, in a BIG way. From trashing the earth, to lack of values and morals, and etc...

Off-Topic / Re: WHEN SHOULD SINGLE PARENT DATE?

« on: April 27, 2011, 09:45:42 pm »Message ID: 345282

My advice is to think about everything before you decide to date. Regardless of it all, you should never bring anyone around your children, until AFTER you have taken your time to get to know them first, I would even say maybe not bring the person around unless the relationship is truly turning serious, and the possibility if marriage is coming. There is a lot to think about in this situation. Your children could react to someone you are dating in many ways... they could reject them, give them a hard time, think you are replacing their mom/dad or etc... if any of these are the cases, then it could damage your relationship with the person you are seeing, AND/OR damage the relationship you have with your children, so you REALLY need to know that this person is in it for the long haul, and not going to be gone next week. Another thing about this is if it is a NEW relationship, and maybe you have only known the person for like a week or something, if they are suddenly faced with your children, and the children are reacting badly to them it could be more than they can take, and might not think you or your kids are worth it, since hey they just met you, and there is no love in their hearts yet or etc... However if you have a person you have been dating for a while, have taken the time to get to know, and there is "love" between you two, that person is going to be more invested in you, your life, come good OR bad, which means most likely when they meet the kids, if the kids react badly they will be more likely to be able to help you and them work through it, more understanding, accepting and etc... in this case you have a much better chance of everything working out.

Not all children will react badly though, and this can be a good thing but in many ways it can be a very bad thing. What I mean by this is... if you bring someone around and your children except them right away, enjoy having time with the, and react well this is great, however, if this person doesn't turn out to STAY in your life, and they are gone the next week or month, it is going to have a BIG and bad impact on your children. In many cases it would be worse damage on them in the long run. If your children are sensitive, excepting, and etc... you really need to be careful of ANYONE you bring around them, even if it is just friends, they don't even need to be someone you are dating, it can be anyone the children might attach too.

I personally would say you should never bring anyone to your house, until enough time has passed, and you and the person you are dating have gotten serious, and committed to each other. Even at this point, I would say start by maybe having dinner out with the kids there, or go to some place like chuck e cheese, with the kids. Give them chances to meet this person as your FRIEND, in a safe environment, that is not a threat to their "personal" space or home. After some time passes, and there have been a few interactions with them outside the house, then maybe have them over during the day, maybe to watch a movie or have dinner with the kids there. Just progress slowly, and handle any reactions the children have with understanding and compassion. Remember some will think you are trying to replace their mom/dad, some might become fearful that they will "lose you" to the person you are dating, or etc...

Most importantly, you will be teaching your children a LOT of things in this time. Do you really want your children to grow up and develop into a person who sleep with anyone and everyone? Someone who goes through relationships like toilet paper? Children learn by example so remember this.

Now two more things, which no one has mentioned yet...

If you are bringing in different men/women each week, or month, and word about this gets back to your ex, you could have the possible problem of the ex seeking custody based on this. Depending on how your ex is, you could risk losing your children because you are thinking about your libido more than your children, or the impact your sex life is having on them. It could easily be used against you in court or etc... Also depending on where you live, like if you live in a small area or town... if you date a lot of different people, or bring them home, word could get around that you are a "*bleep*" or etc... and this could have an impact on your children, and their lives like in school, or around their peers.

The second thing no one has mentioned, and possibly they VERY most important thing... you NEVER know who someone is... remember the person you are dating is NOT the biological parent. They could be an abuser, sexually, physically, or mentally. You could risk your child's mental well being, physical well being or sexual well being. I am dead serious about this, in this day and age... do not be so gullable to meet some man OR woman, and after a week of being woo'd think "oh this is a great man" and bring him around your children, only to find out later he is a child molester, or he drinks more than you thought originally, or etc... I don't care how nice the person seems when you meet them, they CAN be any of these things. Most people hide who they are on many levels from someone they are dating. It could be that they are hiding the fact they chew their nails, have stinky feet, fart a lot, or etc... or they can be hiding something much darker. TAKE the time to find out what if anything they are hiding, take the time to get to know them, learn about them, meet their friends, family and etc... NO amount of sex is worth ruining your child's life. NO man or woman is worth it.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN, instead of just FEEDING YOUR LIBIDO, or FILLING AN EMPTY SPOT LEFT BY YOUR EX.

Off-Topic / "Dog" The Bounty Hunter...

« on: April 27, 2011, 09:14:39 pm »Message ID: 345279

Has anyone watched this show on A&E? It is called "Dog" the bounty hunter. Well if you haven't seen it here is a quick run down. It is about a family, husband (Dog), his wife, his brother, his son, and his daughter... they are all bounty hunters. Dog himself looks like some huge hulking weight lifter, with this wavy long blondish yellow hair, and he is almost always wearing these big sun glasses. The wife is a VERY voluptuous bleach blond, with these HUGE, and I mean HUGE *bleep* that stand straight out like big bullets. The son and brother are both like weight lifters also, but not as big as Dog is, they actually look more like bikers. The daughter is a cute, sexy skinny athletic blond. They seriously look like a mix between some "bad *bleep*" biker family, that lifts weights, and works out every minute of the day possibly LOL.

Ok now when you watch this show, in the beginning they talk about who the person is they are going to go after on this episode. The people they go after have been different types like: bouncing checks, drug related, gun related, theft, robbery, and etc... I have not seen anything as serious as like murder yet... but still the people they go after are not just wanted for jay walking or something, LOL. So anyway after they give the details about who and what the person did, then they talk about last known address, or etc... friends & family of the suspect. Now after all of this is done, out they call go to track the person down. Sometimes they meet up with "informants" which are usually people they find related to, or friends with the suspect, that the suspect has usually screwed over or pissed off LOL, so they turn on the suspect and inform the hunters where to find them or etc... towards the end of the show Dog and family end up tracking down, then taking down the suspect. This is almost always fun to watch, because most of these people do not go down quietly. Over all it is a very entertaining show to watch.... BUT...

Here is the twist, and a very nice surprise to me.... I did not expect this at all... but at the very end, after they capture the suspect, they drive them to the jail place to turn them in and etc... well in the first episode they had gone after this guy who was wanted for burglary and a few other things including drug charges. So Dog and his wife are in the back with this guy, talking to him about how Dog understands and knows all about addiction, because he too had a problem long ago. Now this is not the surprise... I mean from the looks of them all you would probably think they ALL (except maybe the daughter) might have had drug use problems in the past if not STILL. But the surprise came after he revealed this about himself... is when Dog suddenly starts talking to this guy about GOD. How GOD saved him, and helped him over come his addiction, and has blessed him, his life, and his family. He actually sort of starts preaching to this guy about GOD, but NOT in that over bearing type way... he preaches in an understanding, good way. In the end the suspect has tears in his eyes, and his face is filled with conflict, then Dog and his wife both start to Pray for this guy right there in the back seat. The suspect as he is about to enter the building to turn himself in, with the help of the police or whoever is there with him, he tells the one officer that he is grateful he was caught by Dog, because Dog helped him to realize things about himself, and that he will be seeking help now to get off the drugs and go straight etc... and he thanks GOD for putting Dog into his life and helping put him on the right path.

Some of you might think this is bullshit, or dramatization etc... but I went online and tried to find out what I could about this family and show. From what I saw this is all 100% real. This family is really like this. They are all really heart felt Christians, who follow the path they believe GOD has put them on as a family. They really DO talk to every suspect like that, and not just for TV sake. They have helped tons of people come back to GOD, and get on the right path. Most of the profits from this TV show that they make, they turn around and put into helping the suspects that they capture. They help them get their lives back on track, help put them through rehabilitation, help them get out of bad housing situations and etc... and NONE of this is ever mentioned on the show. I think I saw once on one show Dog mentioned he would submit a recommendation to the judge for one suspect, asking he be sent to a rehabilitation program, and given probation or something instead of a sentence in jail. This is one of the main reasons I feel respect for this show and family. It is entertaining, but it is REAL, this family is not fake, and not in it just for the money or etc... they do this show to help get the word out, that you do not have to be some holier than thou, straight laced, stiff collar, person to be a Christian in order to live for GOD, do his work, and help others by guiding them to or back to him. They also show that it is not about them wanting to be praised or etc... for what they do, because like I said it is not shown on the show what they do with the profits of the show, or what help and things they give the suspects, and community in general or etc...

Over all I think this is a great show. You see this family, and at first think bikers, tough guys, weight lifters, bad asses, or etc... and you ARE right, but they are much much more. Once you watch the show in full you see they are a LOT more, they are these things, they are VERY human, they have made mistakes, and etc... but they are also a VERY close family, very loving and protective of each other, very Christian, and just over all GOOD human beings.

Don't get the wrong idea though about them. They are not just some squishy do gooders. They do not like nor take bullshit, they really dislike fake people, people who just make excuses, deny what they have done, and etc... They DO call people on their bullshit, and they don't let them get away with it. It is nice watching them when they do this, because I know I sit here and want to slap the crap out of some of these people with the things they say.

Payments / Re: Do we need to pay taxes???????

« on: April 26, 2011, 08:21:32 am »Message ID: 344479

Taxes were only supposed to be a temporary thing... but greedy politicians continued it. It was only supposed to help during the Civil War here in America, in 1860/61 I think. Also when it was put into "law" at the time it was not meant for everyone, it was only at the time a small percentage like 2-3% of Americans who made over a certain amount of money, I think the amount was like $900.00. It was supposed to end, when the war ended, since it was only supposed to help with the war effort. Within 5 years of the tax being put into action, they had collected over 300 million. Now here is the thing to think about... if they collected OVER 300 million, in 5 years time, just by collecting from Americans who made like $900.00, and they were only collecting a itsy bitsy percentage... just HOW much do they collect now? Seriously think about it... I can not even fathom the amount the government collects from us Americans now... our hard earned money, yet our country is on the verge of bankruptcy so to speak? Ok I am done, LOL. I usually don't get this "educational" on here, but I actually was looking this stuff up a few weeks ago, when a friend of mine and I were talking about taxes LOL. I had told my friend about this, without the "facts", just told from what I remembered from learning long, long ago. Anyway I went online to show my friend the "facts" cuz he did not believe it was originally supposed to be a temporary thing.

Freedom of choice should be just that... FREEDOM OF CHOICE. Regardless of what it is, we should or are SUPPOSED to have the RIGHT to choose. It starts small... today it is things like smoking, abortion, and etc... so what about 10, 50 or 100 year from now? Are we going to end up like those science fiction movies about the future? You know like the ones where everyone on the planet has a bar code embedded in their arms, and are tracked everywhere they go, what they do and etc...? Are we going to end up in a society were even swearing is illegal? Are we going to become a race of beings that can not go anywhere, or do anything without every moment of it being captured on camera, or caught by tons of "drones" floating in the sky watching us? Are we going to have a future where we are implanted with a chip to prevent reproduction, until the day we are married, then get the chop removed by the government, ONLY to be allowed to have 1 child because they deem that is all the married couple can have?

Seriously I know some of this sounds out there, and stupid... BUT think about it like this... what about not so many years ago when people walked freely smoking a cigarette, you saw them in almost every movie, it was accepted, and even doctors said they were not harmful... ok so back then wouldn't you think people if they were told one day in the future it would be illegal to smoke in public place? Wouldn't they laugh at you, and think THAT idea was science fiction? Just think about other freedoms we have had in the past, and do not have now. So if they keep taking our freedoms, little by little, in the end where are we left? When the little things become big things? Where does it stop? The answer is unless people realize what is happening, and do something TO stop our freedoms from being taken away... it will NOT stop, and one day in the not so distant future, even me writing this topic, in this forum, could be illegal.

Debate & Discuss / Re: Why do people like life so much?

« on: April 16, 2011, 09:00:03 pm »Message ID: 340994

Life is Life, plain and simple. If you are living one that you don't like, then do what you can to change it, or look for those who can help you change it. If it can not be changed... well try to make the best of it until you can change it. I think in most cases people make their lives hard, or easy by the actions they do (not all cases). Just try to make the best of the life you have, change what you can that you don't like about it, by try above all to live your life the best you can, while you can.

To answer the actual question asked... I think people like life so much mostly for the good moments, for the joy it can bring, for the possibility of what tomorrow might bring. I don't think all people "LIKE" life though, I think most just live it, or just go day by day but don't enjoy it, or "like" it. In reality most people don't like their lives for one reason or another. I also feel most people waste their lives, or don't do what they CAN do to make it better or change it.

Just think of this... if you were to be told tomorrow, that you only had one month to live... what would you do? what would you change? How would you live your last month? NOW all of those things you thought about... can you do them now, even if you are not going to die in a month? If you can then do them, why wait till you only have a month to live? You could die in your sleep in a month, or get hit by a car in a week, or etc... so for all anyone knows, we only have a week or a month left... so LIVE your life with that in thought, and if you do, most likely your life will be better. Just realize we are given this life from the moment we are born, but it can be taken from us at any moment...

Debate & Discuss / Re: Planned Parenthood

« on: April 16, 2011, 07:39:54 pm »Message ID: 340973

Here is what I think... I did read some of the posts, but not all so I might repeat what has been said already LOL.

First off my personal opinion on abortion... I would never get one, for me personally I do not believe in it. I feel from the moment of conception the fetus IS A BABY, a human being, WITH A SOUL.

Now that being said... I also think it IS the woman's choice to do with her body what she deems necessary. I do not think the government has the right to take THAT right away from a woman. I also know from when I wrote a paper on this in college, and after researching things on the subject... if anyone out there knows about the history of abortion... then you know the very gruesome facts. Women were having abortions, WAY before they became legal. Women were doing them at home with coat hangers, or going to "doctors" in "under ground labs" to get it done. In a huge % of these cases, the women did not survive, or in worse cases it made them ill and disabled them physically. Not to mention the WAY the baby was removed... or as I believe KILLED, was hugely barbaric. So my thought is even if I do not personally like the thought of it being legal... it IS better than how it was when it was illegal. Because no matter what women will find a way if they want to abort, regardless if it is legal or not. Just like those who smoke cigs, if one day they made cigarettes illegal, it would not suddenly stop everyone from smoking, people would still find a way.

Ok and on the other hand... I honestly think there should be more strict rules regarding actually getting abortions. For like those underage, or etc.... I hate when I hear of the shows on TV that do stories on this subject, and show some stupid *bleep* female who is basically using an abortion as "birth control". This thought sickens me... "oh I can have all the unprotected sex I want, if I get pregnant I can just get an abortion..." I really wish sometimes I could just beat the living crap out of these women. Hell my ideal thought would be that if a woman was like this, then if she came in for a second abortion put her under the knife and tie her friggen tubes, then she wouldn't have to worry about getting pregnant ever again. AND if she "grew up" and became responsible, and stopped this way of thinking THEN she could always have her tubes "untied". A huge part of me thinks that abortions really should only be used in cases of rape, incest, or medical emergencies.

I actually just watched a show on HBO a few days ago. It was about this abortion clinic that was opened in 1991 on the corner of this street, and then in 1999 a family planning center was opened right across from the clinic on the other corner. It was interesting to see both sides of the issue, without only one side being propped up. Just from this show, people can learn a lot. In it they showed or told you how the babies are aborted... and I have to say it brought tears to my eyes. The thought of the fetus being TORN apart piece by piece and pulled out of the woman... yes I know you might not want to hear it, but it is true. It is graphic, and gruesome, honestly almost enough that I had a moment of thinking abortions SHOULD be illegal. But that was only for a moment... until I thought about the women out there who have been raped and made pregnant, or who have a serious illness and if they go through with the pregnancy it could kill them and the baby anyway. I want to also add that in this show they also showed something else that is just as disturbing as the thought of how the babies are killed... and that is the people who work for the planned parenthood, or family planning centers. The anti abortionist... those signs they hold up and walk around with. The same signs that ANY child can see while walking home, or to school, or sitting in the back seat of a car... I never understood HOW these people can say how they are for the "families", and all about protecting children... yet just HOW much damage do those damn signs do to CHILDREN? How the about extremist bombing clinics, or kill doctors over this subject... how they can take another humans life, yet they will stand there and rant about how these doctors take the lives of human beings by giving abortions... that never made sense to me as well.

So that all being said... where do I stand personally? I am against abortions except in the above mentioned cases of rape, incest, or medical emergencies. BUT beyond how I feel personally I still think it is the woman's RIGHT do to with her body as she deems necessary, and the government has NO right to dictate what she can or can not do with it.
