p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 20 Oct 08

OK. That's got you all baying for blood! I read a similar statement in a discussion recently. Personally I think that it depends on where in the World you are and your approach to life. However, I am sure that there is some truth...

cyclegmom1400 Hi p1kef1sh, I couldn't help myself in responding to this comment. True that it depends on where in the world you live. There are so many poor people in countries who cannot do anything to change their status because of their government. And yet if you live in...

singout @singout (980) • United States 21 Oct 08

cyclegmom1400 Guess who, right again. I don't think it gives you confidence. I believe that if you are chewing gum you would be moving some other part of your body. We seem to be nervous or fidgety with our busy lives that we have to keep on moving. So the chewing of the...

Would You Shoot?

singout @singout (980) • United States 21 Oct 08

cyclegmom1400 Hello again, It's me! I would have to know for certain that mine or my family was in danger before I shoot. The intruder would have to be seriously a danger to us. To take another person's life is a drastic action. I would like to think and know that I would...

cyclegmom1400 Hello sweet singout, There is such a thing as the town or local not being on the map, yet. Or you could have been in such deep thought that you didn't realize that you have passed it so quickly. I don't think you fell asleep because if you had you would be...

cyclegmom1400 Hello lordwarwizard, As you said there comes a time when we just don't have a choice in wearing glasses. As right now. I need them for seeing, reading, and preventing my right eye from turning into the tear duct. It does seem that a lot of smart people do wear...

Why do people feel the loss of a pet is any less painful than other family?

Barbietre @Barbietre (1438) • United States 17 Oct 08

My sister just lost a pet today and I feel the pain she is feeling, because when I lost my last pet, it was as hard to take as a family member. Pets, unlike people love us unconditionally and in some cases are there for us when no...

cyclegmom1400 Hello Barbiere, You are so right about the pain in losing someone or of a pet. They are the only love that some people have, when they become like family. Or if you grew up with one all it's life-that really hurts. I lost my cat Gizmo, after 17 and 1/2 yrs....
