*Not every child is or was brought up by biological parents, and not every pair of biological parents has only that one relationship or “coupling” under his or her belt. For that reason, no assumption is made in asking this question that each and every one of us was raised by our biological parents, nor is there an assumption that everyone’s biological parents only had that one relationship either before, during, or after your conception.BACKGROUND. I am the product of my mother’s third of six pregnancies, which were themselves sired by at least four different men. My childhood was far from the nuclear family setting that may or may not exist in reality for others. My mother married and divorced twice, the first one I was much too young to know anything about, and the latter one just prior to my 15th birthday. Neither of her husbands were my biological father, a person to this day I have never known. One thing that always impresses me about my mother and stepfather was that no... less

On the east coast people call freeways expressways, but in the central USA freeways and expressways are two different things. In the middle of the country, a freeway is a highway that has at least four lanes, has a grassy area or wall in the center and has only exit and entrance ramps and bridges.
An expressway is a highway that has at least four lanes, has a grassy area or wall in the center, but it has regular intersections at some junctions, traffic lights spaced far apart and bridges with exit and entrance ramps at some other junctions. So, what do people on the east coast call that kind of highway? less

“Set Adrift on Memory Bliss” by P.M. Dawn.
LYRICS:Set adrift on memory bliss of you
Baby you send me
Baby you send me
Set adrift on memory bliss of you
The camera pans to a cocktail glass
Behind a blind of plastic plants
You found the lady with the fat diamond ring
Then you know I can't remember a damn thing
I think its one of those Déjà Vu things
Or a dream that's trying to tell me something
Or will I ever stop thinking about it
I don't know, I doubt it
Subterranean by design
I wonder what I would find, if I met you
Let my eyes caress you
Until I meet the thought of Misses Princess who?
Often wonder what makes her work
I guess I'll leave that question to the experts
Assuming that there are some out there
They're probably alone, solitaire
I can remember when, I caught up
With a past-time intimate friend, she said
"Bet you're probably gonna say I look lovely
But you probably don't think nothin' of me"
She was right, though, I can't lie
She's just one of t... less
