2 months ago
I haven't got cable. There are two main reasons for this decision. The first, I think my 9 years old child would not do his homework and would watch cartoons all day instead.

I would not say that they were my favourite food, but I liked them very much: cow brains. I can't eat them anymore, for health reasons, but it wasn't my doctor who forbid me to eat them any more (even when they are "pure cholesterol").

Nowadays I don't drink much coffee, because my doctor told me it's not good for reflux. When I do it's black coffee. Some years ago I used to have a lot of cups along the day, while working.

oriental responded to a discussion called Which section of the daily newspaper is your favorite? in reading.

My favourite section is National News. It's the first one I read. Then I will go to the World News and after that, to Business. The last section I read is Sports (it's at the end of the newspaper, but I would do the same if it were in another part).
