...rest of the lineup for the Republican convention is a little washed up: Sammy Hagar, Gretchen Wilson, Styx, Smashmouth, the Beach Boys, Cowboy Troy, the Bellamy Brothers, Robert Earl Keen and LeAnn Rimes. Some organizers who had great success at the DNC are having no luck booking their RNC event. Even in St. Paul the Democrats have a better slate, with anti-Bush protest shows planned from Steve Earle, Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Billy Bragg and Lupe Fiasco...
After David Lee Roth left Van Halen, upset fans took time to embrace Sammy Hagar. Likely to be more welcoming are Wiggles groupies, partly because some are still potty training. The new Yellow Wiggle, SAM MORAN, replaces the Australian kids' band's lead singer of 15 years, Greg Page, who left due to an illness that kept him from performing standards like Yummy Yummy and Toot Toot. The ubiquitous group has sold more than 15 million CDs and DVDs in the U.S. Van Halen has sold more, but Van Halen fans don't have such grateful mothers...
...fact, parents often spank out of fear, not anger. Kristy Hagar, a child neuropsychologist at the Children's Medical Center in Dallas, has spanked her daughters occasionally, when, for example, her toddler charged into oncoming traffic.

Your reference to Sarah, Abraham and Hagar is not parallel to surrogate parenting. That was a simple case of polygamy, which was allowed during the early period of Hebrew society.

It matters not whether this act takes place in bed or in a laboratory. As to the legality of surrogate parenting, the law will keep floundering as long as it operates without...
...nothing sacred? Long before Bridget Jones and Carrie Bradshaw made the suffering singleton chic, a neurotic, noseless career woman was a pioneer among Neanderthals like Hagar the Horrible. Now CATHY, the funny papers' eternal (or since 1976) bachelorette, will get a marriage proposal. The chubby cartoon icon has been warring with boyfriend Irving in recent strips, but he will finally pop the question on Valentine's Day. How Cathy responds is under wraps. Next to a photocopier somewhere, Dilbert is kicking himself...
