agogos Depends on what you use it for and the specific article. Some articles are very well thought out and cited well, whereas others need a little work. Because it is a user-contributed encyclopedia, it does have more relevant and detailed information, but you have...

Favorite Count Basie song?

agogos @agogos (32) • United States 11 Feb 07

For me, I would definitely have to say "Blue Skies". The piano and jazz that goes with it is so amazing!

Who is your favorite artists, and from what period? I personally love Rembrandt, particularly his "The Return of the Prodigal Son."

agogos I have to agree with you there. However, with this particular Rembrandt, I feel almost as if the holy is everywhere, waiting to be discovered. Also, the way that the art slowly springs from the darkness is also so moving to me... Rossetti I feel does the same...

agogos Love being blind means being blind to faults. Once in love with someone, you tend to overlook their failing and only see the good in them.

Do U like remixes of old songs?

antidote @antidote (108) • India 11 Feb 07

Do u think djs spiol it or do u think they r making it better.

3 responses

agogos it definitely depends on the song, but several oldies like "Got to Get you into my life" were remade several times to appeal to a newer generation. I guess it just depends on what you are into music-wise.

Are girls closer to their Mothers than boys?

bigstret @bigstret (484) 11 Feb 07

and are Boys closer to their fathers than girls? I was always a daddies boy!

agogos It just depends. For a lot of children, the opposite is true, with mothers and sons being closer, and fathers and daughters. Hence, "momma's boy" and "daddy's girl" euphemisms.

agogos I'm not really into fashion blogs, but about 6 months ago I stumbled onto A Dress A Day, and I kind of like it. I think that its appeal is more about creativity and ingenuity for me than the fashion.

Serious question. If people leave their affiliate links do your report them?

WebMann @WebMann (4731) • Canada 11 Feb 07

The reason I ask is because it really bothers me and I see it as a very negative thing. I wonder if you feel there are exceptions to the rule, no affliate or referral links? I was 100% against giving out referral links as it...

agogos it's the same here in the U.S. I think that at 15 or 16 you should definitely step in! Once they're 18, it's their choice, but until then, you have the power to stop them and you should.
