Allen Hunt said in the OP...3) Have a lot of kids. Contrary to what our culture teaches right now, kids will likely be the best part of your life. Have a bunch of them.

I'd like to have kids someday (but as George Costanza correctly pointed out, you have to have a date first). However, in today's world, aything beyond 5 kids is ridiculous and more than 10 is grotesque.

The Duggars are some of the most successful Americans.

The Duggars are quite insane (only adjective fitting having 19 children!) and can only provide for such a humongous brood by pimping their kids to Discovery Health (not unlike John+Kate+8).
If everyone behaved like the Duggers there would be 60 billion people on the face of the Earth within a generation! Within 2, 600 billion. After a century, 60 trillion! Gotta love the exponential function.

Allen Hunt said in a tweet...And yes I know, this is the last year of Idol. Once Simon is gone, it is ovaaahhh.

We can only hope. And pray, if we're so inclined.

Lost my cell phone overnight, then my home phone got hit by lightning this morning. God has given me a nice gift today. Silence is golden.

You keep crediting your god for weirdest (and not all that improbable) things. Instead of taking away your gadgets why doesn't he just give you a modicum of self control? But I guess such drastic measures fit better with GMatt. 5:29-30 and 18:8-9!

Does anyone besides me not really care whether Wal-Mart charges less for black Barbies than for white ones?

I don't know how I will sleep at night. But seriously, who is upset this time? White soccer moms who have to shell out a few more pennies for a toy for their precious daughters or professional black offended-ers complaining that that means black dolls are less desirable (and thus cannot command as high a markup.)

So, the goverment doesn't do it's job on the borders, the mexicans come into our country illegally take our jobs at a much lower wage, use our resources,Many have committed crimes and have killed american citizens ( many through drunk driving) and you want to give them citizenship! Hey dude maybe it means nothing to you but there are a lot of americans that don't have jobs and I personally don't think they should have to be competing with people who broke the law to enter the country in the first place.Furthermore, the fact that you think a national I.D card is a good idea is short sighted at best, the goverment would use it against us. Why should our rights and freedoms be abridged because of someone elses criminal actions? Let's not forget that along with a growing number comes political power and that means easing the immigration laws, they are doing that already and they're still illegal.The only thing the hispanic illegals offer is cheap labor and that just lowers the wages across the board. Compasion is a good thing, maybe a little for the americans that can't feed there children or the construction workers that lost there jobs to mexican or the relatives of those killed and mamed by your beloved illegals would be in order.

Allen wants to give illegals citizenship because they tend to be uneducated poor from Latin America and thus most likely very conservative Catholics. More such citizens --> more politicians like Bart "I only listen to Catholic Bishops, Focus on the Family and National Right to Life" Stupak ...
