You cannot make another post so soon after your last; please try again in a short while.
Hey, why did that come up when I tried to post?…never seen that before!
p.s If he did care he wouldn’t let these polls stay on here, so I guess it works both ways lol.
He doesn’t give a shit, but I kinda like that..at least you know where you are with him.
I think PB is a cool dude!
(I think you’re right !!!! ….. Ed)
I’ve never heard of organised stalking. What is it?
“Well a hell of a lot of stalking is a figment of the “victims” imagination for a start”
I don’t think that is true at all, although, the word is used a lot on the net in a joking way pertaining to overzealous admirers.
The term isn’t being manipulated to “describe what men do” both men and women alike are referred to as stalkers. The term bunny boiler is not a whimsical term it is evil and quite frightening.
“stalking used to be commonly done and still is by women”
The most recent figures from the government’s Criminal Statistics for England and Wales show that in 2003, 5,640 prosecutions were dealt with in magistrates’ courts. Of those, 4,884 defendants were men, 756 women. Of the 2,810 convictions, 2,500 were men, 310 women.
United States National Center for Victims of Crime, one out of every 12 women and one out of every 45 men will be stalked during their lifetime.I think the stalking laws have been in force for some years so how can it be a new thing?
I knew you had made a typo hence no hypocrital blahs (I wanted to tho lol) anyway cant type much right now on the vino and donuts but would like to say I do enjoy replying to your posts, they make me think!
That’s a disgraceful thing to say Emma. I am really shocked, I can’t believe you said that!
How can it be both?
I know mistakes will be made, but it seems to me that misspellings, incorrect names and inaccurate facts are out there in abundance lately.
What a gamble though, think of all the people and animals that would die or get sick. Oh but they are already! Interesting point!

BEIJING (Reuters) – The boss of a Chinese toy manufacturing company involved in a Mattel recall after its products were found to contain excessive lead levels has hanged himself, Chinese media reported on Monday.
Zhang Shuhong, a Hong Kong businessman in his 50s and boss of the Lida Toy Company in the southern province of Guangdong, was found dead in his factory workshop on Saturday, the semi-official Southern Metropolitan Daily said.
About 1.5 million preschool toys made by Lida Toy, a Foshan-based contract manufacturer for Mattel Inc.’s Fisher-Price unit, were recalled across the globe by the U.S. company last week.
The recalled toys included popular preschool characters such as Elmo and Big Bird and dozens of other items. The case was the latest in a deluge of product safety scares that have tainted the “made-in-China” brand.

China – On Thursday hit out at the foreign press and “irresponsible people” for raising fears about Chinese-made toys and other exports that have been recalled due to safety concerns.
“Some media and irresponsible people take a small problem and make it into a large one,” Commerce Ministry spokesperson Wang Xinpei told reporters when asked about various recalls, most recently by US toy giant Mattel.
“The Chinese government steadfastly opposes these actions by irresponsible people.”

New Zealand – Chinese-made blankets are being recalled in Australia and New Zealand because they contain high levels of potentially dangerous formaldehyde, the importer said on Wednesday.
Amid rising concerns about the safety of Chinese exports and tests showing high levels of the chemical in Chinese clothing imported into New Zealand, consumers were warned to return the blankets.
Wholesale firm Charles Parsons said the level of fomaldehyde in the Superlux brand of blankets “may cause short-term skin or respiratory irritation”.

Two US toy companies on Wednesday recalled more than 300 000 Chinese-made toys, saying they contain potentially dangerous levels of lead.
Two other companies also recalled nearly 22 000 pieces of children’s jewellery, saying they, too, contained excessive levels of lead.
The alerts come eight days after a massive global recall by US toy giant Mattel, of 18 million toys that were made in China.
The latest recall included 250 000 Sponge Bob spiral address books and journals, 66 000 spinning tops, including some from the popular Thomas the Tank Engine series, and 4 700 pails, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission said in separate statements issued jointly with the two companies concerned.
The paint on the metal spiral bindings of the address books and journals, and on the metal handles of the tops and pails, “contain excessive levels of lead,” the US importers of the toys, Martin Designs of Ohio and Schylling Associates of Massachusetts, said.

BEIJING (AFP) – A design fault was mostly to blame for US toy giant Mattel’s recall of millions of products, not the Chinese manufacturers, China’s chief safety watchdog said Monday.
Li Changjiang also said Chinese factories were in the clear over the alleged discovery of the dangerous formaldehyde chemical in clothing sold in New Zealand, as he sought to reassure the world over the “Made-in-China” label.

Some 9 500 Chinese-made steel-toed boots were recalled on Tuesday in the United States amid fears wearers could suffer electric shock, the consumer protection agency announced.
“The recalled logger boots could be incorrectly labeled as resistant to electrical current. This poses a shock hazard to consumers who come in contact with an electrical current,” the statement said.
This recall involves Caterpillar brand steel toe logger boots. The boots were sold in women’s and men’s sizes. Women’s boots were sold in black and have stock number P88030. Men’s boots were sold in brown and black and have stock numbers P88033 or P88034. Stock numbers are printed on a label on the tongue of the shoe. The Caterpillar logo and “EH” are also printed on the label. The word “Caterpillar” is printed on the outside of the boots.
