In 2000, 857,475 legal induced abortions were reported.
The abortion ratio for 2000 has approximately returned to the levels reported in 1974. The ratio was 246 legal induced abortions per 1,000 live births, compared to 256 in 1999. (This is almost 1/4 of the possible population)
Most abortions were obtained by white women, unmarried women, and women less than 25 years of age. As in previous years, about one-fifth of women who had abortions were 19 years old or younger. Of the women who had an abortion, 39 percent were known to have had no previous live births.

Liberals Conservitates and Why I Hate Them Both
Ok maybe hate is to strong of a word to use here. Uh how about a strong distain for both of the said parties. Liberals and conservitives are equally as closed minded, they are the same in esscence. For instance on NPR yesterday one of their personalities was interviewing a woman, a filmaker, and asked her what she thought about the work of Michel Moore. She said that she loved his work because he said what he had to say and cared not for what anybody else thought of him. O you mean he is closed minded. Consevitives and liberals alike believe themselves to be the most open minded people in the world. But the funny thing is that they are just as close minded as the other. Do not get me wrong I really enjoy Michel Moore's work but at least he fesses up to being close minded as he said something to the effect of, "I make political films about my personal view." It is not that i do not like michael moore i really enjoy his movies but i will not take them for fact like most people seem to do. That is the very thing that he is constantly coming out against and the very people who love his films the most do this with them. That is to say the people who are micheal's biggest suporters, which i know is a very broad term but you know what i mean, see to take everything he says for the ultimate truth. Know do not start crying conservitive just yet as i will get them to in a future post. Find the sources and read the stuff from both sides. Here is a great news source that is about as balanced as they come

Ah this is so terrible. White chocolate, can I go on? Long flowing hair cut close. Life coming to an end. The phone rings silent in my head. I hear it, it rings so loud? I live between time and space, here on Earth and Moon and Universe. The stars can no longer hold me. Alas, alas there is no end.

No one wants to read old blog material. No matter how good it might be. I know when i go to a site that has not been updated in a while i leave pretty quick. If there has been an update as of late i will usually go back a few entries to check out the quality of the stuff. But other than that, that is where most of our searches end as bloggers. It is like going back to read old news paper articles, only a very (and i mean very) few people do that, if any.

Ok so I met this girl here about a month ago. We hit it off, started hanging out did some stuff together you know nothing serious. Anyway so I ask her out to dinner, not like we are getting married, yesterday (11\7) for tonight. Well I call my mom up to talk to because I hadn’t talked to her in awhile. Well she asked what I had planned for the weekend I think or I just told her what I was doing, I can’t remember, either way I told her I was taken a girl out to dinner. Well she asks me about her, you know the basic mom stuff. Well then I tell her this girls age she is 21 turns 22 in February, I am 18. Well they, my mom and dad, pretty much asked why is she going out to dinner with some 18 year old. What a freaking double standard! If I was 21 and took an 18 year old out there would be no questions asked. But when it is the other way around people wonder what is wrong with the girl. The other thing that gets me is that my mom is what, 3 or 4 years older than my dad. I mean what the heck. I am not mad about it at all, I just think it is really funny. The point is what a double standard.
