when fran’s standing in the audience at the hockey game and everyone is chanting her name she makes a speech about being a jewish girl from new york in madison square garden. she then says it reminds her of something and she starts to sing. who is she alluding to?

I’d love to do something like dog-walking, or possibly be a nanny… but is there much of a calling for this?
I’m American… ha ha.

“Criticise”… I didn’t even notice that! I’ve been to the UK one too many times.

I thought the Supreme Court said I had a “constitutional right to privacy!” Hey, sodomy carries health risks too, but it’s been deemed unconstitutional to ban it. So why is this different?

I’m being partly sarcastic – you’d be hard pressed to find a “privacy” right to start with. But is government going too far? heck, smoking bans at least have the arguable justification that you are hurting others. Seat belt laws may help you keep control of the car, so you don’t hurt others, if you are hit. Drug laws may prevent you from hurting others when you are high. And yes, laws against harmful food may lower everyone’s insurance costs.

But when is enough enough? How do you feel about possible encroachment of “the nanny state?”

I’ve mashed together a lot of thoughts here, but give it a go. thanks.
Hey Stifle, I’ll assume your answer is a joke.

No one could have misread the question so completely for real.

to another: i want to nanny now and get the experience because i don’t want to do it next year and miss all my friends grad parties and everything.. and i don’t want to miss out on a year of college and plan to have my own family and liife after college..

i really want to do it because i really want to get away from my home.. i neeed a full time summer job so i can pay for college.. i want to go out of state because i honestly hate where i am from..
