I was about 50 feet away and as I was running over to break it up I could see that they weren't goofing around or holding back. Then I noticed that our family dog was going nuts with confusion he would try to stop one boy from throwing punches then the other boy and so on. When I got to them I got between them and said - look what your doing to Sundance they did then hung their heads in shame and went to their corners. Pretty sure if I would of said - boys look what your doing to me they would of said - so what old man (back then I was getting on their 17 year old teenager nerves too). We have a great relationship now so I'll always be grateful to Sundance for playing a part in it (might be different these days if the fight turned into a 3 man fight). Cheers! less

Conservative groups have tried to capitalize on this through "astroturfing", which is using paid commenters to try to affect perceptions of the news. Right now the two largest employers of conservative astroturfing trolls are the Koch funded think tank FreedomWorks, and conservative activist and Breitbart news publisher Steve Bannon.
Along with this rise in astroturfing has come the rise of the "Aggressive Democratic Commenter", who are private individuals with an interest in politics who have taken it upon themselves to skewer and satirize the astroturfers. ADCs have no Republican equivalent, and if you look at most news stories you'll see the conservative comments appear childish and inane, while the comments from liberals are factually accurate, and often contain a biting wit that appeals strongly to readers. There is no Republican equivalent to the ADC, as Republicans are generally less intell... less

My brother and sister also have no children, so once they pass away (and due to known health conditions it's practically guaranteed they'll both pass away before me) it'll just be me.
Sometimes I wonder what I'll do when I get older, and the notion of living independently for as long as I'm able, then committing suicide if and when I'm ever given a terminal diagnosis seems like the best option. If I were to reach my 70s and end up being diagnosed with Alzheimer's or Organic Heart Disease, I really see no value in spending my winter years in a nursing home run by the county.
What are your thoughts on this issue, and do you agree with assisted suicide for those who are given diagnoses for chronic and terminal diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and MS? less

• Just a little here and there
• My favorite saying is, "Shaddup or I'll give you something to cry about"
• It's my weakness, one drop and I melt
• Zero, don't even start with me
• Wait, are we talking about my own crying, or someone else's?
