Eddie, is it possible to put on gloves without touching the exterior of the glove?

There is no question about it. Its not a matter of " right to choose" Its a matter of isRead More abortion murder...I was so upset with the Orient and what they do to cats and dogs... Look what America does to our children...Cuomo will have their blood on his hands....I am not for abortion at all. But aborting the fetus in the third trimester has to be stopped.. Its murder..

CMOS, The surfers from out of town come here all year long and add to the economy 12 months a year,Read More what additional benefit do those people pushing shopping carts full of kid's toys add? Last summer the surfers were give only 1 in 3 beaches and that was base on increased demand, and this year more surfers are expected so it makes sense that more beach be set aside for them, or some kids are going to get hurt and then the city will need to pay for that.
Castles Made of Sand May 17, 2013 at 09:30 am
Paul, after you give us numbers on the "driving" economics of surfers, please tell us howRead More many surfers come the beach in the summer. Do you know? Or are you just guessing? Your argument that surf shops continue to exist as a result of surfers shopping there is darn near brilliant. I heard a report that supermarkets in town are being solely supported by hungry people. I can't attest to that though. I do know that Empire Kayak is secretly kept in business by Whirling Dirvishes from Instanbul, and not kayakers. But I digress.

I think u r right Joseph. Its really disappointing..:( What the hec r they doing...????? Well theyRead More have 100 days to complete the boardwalk in the middle section. contract started March 12..or the 15th...60 days already and they did nothing...They have 40 more days to complete it.

Paul as a life long resident, the first surfing school in LB and home owners hit hard by Sandy IRead More thought it was only right to reduce our fee for summer camp.We have had many families here in the same position and just could not afford camp this summer and asked if we can help with local families so we did just that , we will fill up fast so please sign up soon as we do limit our camps to avoid any over crowding. We also have posted our dates for the ONLY 501c3 special needs surfing foundation in Long Beach, please check out surfersway .org for more info.Its free and open to all special needs kids. Elliot
paul.d.spellman May 16, 2013 at 07:51 am
Now if we could only get the City to reduce the outrageous fees forced upon the surf schools one canRead More only imagine how low these prices would go. Does anyone actually know where the fees the schools pay go to?

Women don't have the right to commit suicide, to become a dope addict, or to sell their body parts.Read More No one really knows how many post birth murders are being committed. Requiring a camera in abortion rooms would stop post birth murders.

Eddie, you mislead a lot and lie occasionally. "Gosnell's actions wouldn't be criminal in aRead More more enlightened state like New York, would they? " Yes, they would be. And you know it. In fact, if the reproductive rights of women were properly respected, pond scum like Gosnell would not take advantage of women whose options are limited and find it difficult to obtain the quality prenatal care and a safe abortion if the need one. I respect your right to be against late term abortion and I am not cheering them on but reproductive rights, control over one's body ought to be protected. And doing so would not only eliminate the Gosnells of the world, but would allow for a full range of services that decrease the likihood that women would face situations that bring them to abortion mills like his.

Maybe instead if bitching you should get out there and vote your people into office. It's aboutRead More political connections. It could be that the diocese is helping. Tax exempt homes are wrong. Everyone should pay taxes especially when you can afford to send your kids to private school and camp that costs a lot of money however that goes for all people not any specific groups. I can think of a lot of people that got money that probably didn't need it. I know of many firsthand. Did lbc actually apply? That's what I want to know. Find that out first and then start complaining. It may look like on paper they have more money than misivta. Maybe they don't have any, or at least on paper they don't. There are a lot of variables that go into this. Just remember its the politicians who will act in your best interest and that applies to things like this. Get out there and vote.

I was wondering who this Ronald was. Thanks. I am also very happy if folks choose to live aRead More religious lifestyle, but I don't need to be hit over the head with it. My mother in law is deeply religious, and is happy to answer any questions about her belief, but would never foist her views on anyone else. She lives her life and other people can live theirs. And at the end of the day we should all be able to get along somehow.
Charlie Cheswick May 13, 2013 at 11:23 am
Hey, where'd Bobby/Ronald go?! Took his ball and went home?

So Mr. Cheswick writes, " I view ALL religious fanatics with the same contempt and willRead More challenge them whenever I can. "Fanatic" being the keyword here." But thats not enough for Bob Jamison (his name for this week). He, defender of the faith that he is, decides that Mr. C must " show us a link to ONE post where you used the type of bigoted language towards Jews & Muslims that you use towards Christians. You can not because you are a Christian hating rat and a moral coward" Oddly Bob, when he is not villifying teachers or surfers and a host of others with his favorite label, POS, feels that Mr. C is a "stone cold bigot" and "Christian hating scum" while he assigns the title POS to every person or group that sees the world a bit different than he does. Methinks Jesus himself would reject your defense Bob. Your perversion of his message might lead him to conclude that you are "a Christian hating rat and a moral" empty suit.
