I belong to a neighborhood news group that posts garage sales, lost dogs, and
the like. Most people I have no idea who they are.

A woman posted that, while washing her hands in a neighborhood restaurant,
she left her diamond ring on the sink top. When she remembered, she went
back, but it was gone, and it was too large to have slipped through the drain.

She insists that a person or persons unknown stole it.

The question: how stupid was she? Do you ladies take off your rings in
public restrooms? If so, do you stick them in pocket or purse, or do
you leave them on the counter?

The answer: pretty damn stupid.

Nope, I would never take my rings off in a public washroom. Why would
you? Afraid of a little soap scum? It's easy enough to clean jewelry
with a mixture of water, a little white vinegar and baking soda. Hard
stones only, of course. Not something soft like opals.

I did once when I was very young. It was a 17 carat aquamarine in a
very pretty setting that was made up of 3 types of gold (a remembrance
from my grandmother). Took it off to wash my hands, left it on the
sink (wasn't used to wearing rings) went back and it was gone. No one
turned it in to the management. Too bad for me (I still regret it)
but I learned my lesson - the hard way.

Years ago, I lost a ring due to this exact scenario. That experience
taught me to hold my ring(s) with my teeth until I've finished
washing/drying my hands. Then, I put the ring(s) back on my finger(s).
Can't forget the rings with this method.

And why would she remove it to begin with? I never remove my rings to wash
my hands. I might remove them if I am working with dough or something but
not to wash my hands.

Same as Lucretia except mine was not a pearl ring and I was a bit younger. So no, they don't come off for hand washing.

How many media markets are even faintly progressive? Turn on the
radio and all you hear is right wing I Heart Radio blathering on every
station. Clear Channel (a Romney corporation) owns the airwaves.

Do you really think AM talk radio is the full spectrum of media?

Please.

Pew does study media bias, and their results are unambiguous.

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1919999

A recent study by the Pew Center for the Public and the Press looked at
the state of journalism, journalists and journalistic attitudes.

Details of the study can be found at the Pew Web site (See link in Web
Resources below). It surveyed 547 journalists in broadcasting and print.
It also looks at attitudes comparing journalists who work in local
newsrooms and those who work for national media. The survey replicated a
similar study done in 1995.

More Pessimistic

Overall, the poll shows that journalists are more pessimistic than ever
about the state of the profession. Their confidence in their management
is low and their fears are high about the commercial pressures on
journalism.

This is a study that is bound to have some serious consequences for
American journalism in large measure because of one aspect of the poll:
the political leanings of the journalists who responded to the survey.

Confirmation for Conservatives

It found that a majority of American journalists say they are liberals.
Not surprisingly this has been grist for conservatives because it
confirms the impression that journalists are overwhelmingly liberal
compared to the public in general.

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/211238/economics-media-bias-ridhancock

A new poll from the Pew Research Center has again raised the issue of
liberal bias in the media. A growing body of academic research at top
universities supports it. Unfortunately, those in the major media still
don’t get it and are unlikely to change their behavior, resulting in
further declines in ratings and circulation.

An interesting study in this regard was recently done by Tim Groseclose
of UCLA and Jeff Milyo of the University of Chicago. They devised a
method of measuring press bias based on the way members of Congress cite
various think tanks. By looking at their rating on a
liberal/conservative scale based on votes, they were able to determine
which think tanks were viewed as conservative or liberal. They then
looked at how often these think tanks were cited in the media. The
conclusion of the Groseclose-Milyo study is unambiguous. “Our results
show a very significant liberal bias,” they report. Interestingly, they
found that the Internet’s Drudge Report and “Special Report” on Fox News
were the two outlets closest to the true center of the political
spectrum, despite being widely viewed as conservative. Groseclose and
Milyo also look at the political orientation of journalists relative to
the population. They note that just 7 percent of journalists voted for
George H.W. Bush in 1992 versus 37 of the voting public. This means that
journalists are more liberal than voters in the most liberal
congressional district in the U.S., the 9th district in California,
which contains the city of Berkeley. Even there, Bush got 12 percent of
the vote, almost twice his support among journalists.

Yep. I own a couple of diamond rings. The one I wear all the time is
not a wedding ring, although I suppose it could be used as one. And
when I got divorced I had the diamonds removed from the setting and
mounted on a different stylish setting. I'd call it a cocktail ring. :)

But no, I don't take my rings off when I wash my hands in public
restrooms. IMHO, that's merely inviting trouble.

so what the article is saying is that conservatives are just incapable

I never, ever take my diamonds off and you'd have to be insane to take it off in public. I worked in a jewelry store for years (early 70s) and had many beautiful pieces, and with the current price of gold they were worth a lot of money. A few years ago some asshole kicked in my front door and stole every piece of jewelry I ever had, except what was on my hands at the time, my dad's 14kt gold watch (from work) and my gold charm bracelet, both of which were not in my jewelry boxes. He even stole my husband's pillowcase to put the stuff in. I was only out of the house for one hour. The little bastard even kicked my two little dogs who I'm sure barked and tried to bite. I told the cops that I would formally press animal abuse charges against the little twit if they caught him, which they didn't. The cops said that the stuff was probably pawned within hours of the robbery and melted down right away. Our area has such a bad drug problem that any jewelry left unattended is gone forever. Stupidly, I didn't have a rider on my insurance policy. I only got $4,000, most of which I spent buying and installing new doors. I always wondered if he would have broken in had I been home. I used the little bit of left over insurance money to buy a .38 with a laser pointer and my CC license.

So what you're failing to admit is that the gatekeepers (editorial) are
overwhelmingly liberal.

That's why conservatives had to form their own media outlets.

At least back in the day PBS used to host WF Buckley.

Yes, I know that I made things too easy for the robbers. It's just one of those things that you know you should do, but never actually get around to doing. I've since told a lot of people to hide their valuables and doubt very much that anyone actually did. We usually think bad things won't happen to us. For at least a year I jumped every time I heard a strange noise. We live in the woods and it can be scary sometimes, that's why I have barky dogs. I especially miss one of the jewelry boxes that was stolen, it was custom made with a music box that played our wedding dance song. I never feel absolutely safe unless my husband is home. They stole more than material things.

Yes, technically this is true. A robber must be in his victim's presence
while a burglar is one who enters your home to commit any felony. But
practically...?


A man is flying a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts, "Excuse me. Can you help me? I promised my friend I would meet him half an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."

The man below says, "Yes, You are in a hot air balloon, hovering approximately 30 feet above this field.

"You must be Bryan," says the balloonist.

"I am," replies the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am no better off than I was when I ran into you."

If you're going to hide things, you need to come up with very creative
places. When our house was robbed, Angela's things were spared only because
she had an assortment of things blocking the doorway to her room, including
a bean bag chair and some stuffed animals. Otherwise they pretty much
ransacked everything. Every drawer overturned and dumped out. Things flung
out of the closets. They even dumped out the paper bags full of outgrown
clothing that were waiting to go to Value Village.

At that point in time, I really had only the one diamond ring and I was
wearing that. But they did get my pearls and mostly costume jewelry. I had
made it easy for them too. It was all in a travel tote, but you could tell
how stupid they were because instead of taking the whole thing, they took
the time to empty it out. But they dropped a tiny bird earring on the floor
where I stepped on it later.

Angela actually had more worthwhile jewelry than I did at the time. They
got none of that. They did get my husband's brand new GPS and his X Box.

I told my husband that we are getting a German Shepherd and he will carry my valuables in a little pouch around his neck. Yes, I realize someone here will tell me a German Shepherd is the "wrong" kind of dog, and his tail is too short, and his toenails are too long, and my pouch is the wrong "color", or any number of absurdities. Burglar/robber/animal abuser, who cares what I "should" call him, he's still a sick f**k.

You know, counseling might help you get over the trauma without wasting
the rest of your life living in fear and coming up with stupid ideas
like this one.

yes, Faux News and Limbaugh demonstrate that there is no way to get past
those damn gatekeepers, even though the conservatives have so much money.

===================================

You messed that joke up royally. It takes place in Seattle in a
helicopter lost in fog, and seeing a guy on top of a building
they yell out to ask their location and the guy says "in a
helicopter". Pilot immediately gets his bearings and heads for
the heliport. He says when the guy on the building gave him an
answer that was completely correct and completely useless, he
knew he was at the Microsoft building.

views are. cowardly lot

so what you are saying is that the vast majority of conservative
journalists are failures, not that they are the victims of some
conspiracy. good, we are making progress
