Help about a... poem or song?

timmeh0910 @timmeh0910 (1168) • United States 17 Feb 09

Hello! I've recently decided I wanted to start writing poetry, but when I think of it I think of it as if it were to be in a song. So either way could be taken and know that it is just beginners work, but if your smart in the...

Co-Sleeping HELP!

3SnuggleBunnies @3SnuggleBunnies (16374) • United States 2 Feb 09

I've been fed up for months now with my 6yo & 3yo co-sleeping. It's to the point now that I just sleep with them because otherwise one of us gets kicked out of our bed. And additionally my hubby needs his rest for work as he...

Esbatty The best method is to create a good bedtime ritual of tucking the children in. Since the six year old is the most insistent of the two, and the three year old is at the cusp of the normal end of Seperation Anxiety, right now is the optimal time to get them...

Esbatty Barak Obama didn't win because he is a great man or hero, he's yet to prove either of those things yet. He won because of a combination of factors: 1) Change. He promised Americans a change from the "Good Ol' Boy" system Bush jr. and Cheney were milking...

What is best abdominal exercise

1 response

Esbatty You can't really target body fat, its just you have to burn more calories than you consume daily to remove excess body fat. And its best to lose weight slowly so that your skin doesn't remain stretched and loose where your fat deposit were situated. I...

What time do you start washing your clothes?

CRSunrise @CRSunrise (2981) • United States 2 Feb 09

Most of the time, I can start washing my clothes around mid-day, if it's just clothes. If it happens that I'm washing all of the sheets and comforters, I have to start doing the laundry a lot earlier in the day. When it takes five...

How selfish are you???

ketybhagat @ketybhagat (4123) • India 2 Feb 09

I have to still find one person who is totally unselfish in life. I too am selfish to some extent, but I also am kind hearted enough to think of others. When I have something a little extra, I tend to share it with the less...

Esbatty I say take a few hours out of a long uneventful day and read "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. She gives a wonderful argument, in fiction no less, about how everybody is selfish due to our inherent "survival of the fittest" instinctual programming. That...

Esbatty I tend to be a more frugal shopper so I tend to really bide my time before making a television purchase. About 3 weeks before christmas I ordered a 32 inch Vizio HD plasma television from Walmart.com. I got it for a little under 350 after shipping, and so far...

The Watchmen Motion Comic

cd_lear @cd_lear (74) 31 Jan 09

I've been watching The Watchmen Motion Comic on iTunes. I've really been enjoying it. I've never read any of the Watchmen stories, but I think that it is really well written. The motion comic works really well in my opinion. I...

Esbatty So far I've seen the first 3 installments, and will eventually get around to watch the 4th. Its really well done but my only gripe is that they should have gone the extra mile to get a full cast instead of a single narrator performing the voices. To me it was...

TLChimes @TLChimes (4822) • United States 1 Feb 09

When you are writing... a story, blog, paper, whatever... do you know more then just a general idea of where it's going, where it'll end? I tend to have a story idea but as I write it, the story tends to go where it wants. I...

Esbatty Can't say its the norm but I can say you're not alone. My tendency towards writing by-the-seat-of-my-pants is renown in my writing circles. I tend to work in fantasy and science fiction genres and the characters really take on a life of their own after a...

Esbatty Going "Green" as they say, is a great idea. But one thing you should think about, if you live in the United States and in a residential zone of a city or town, is to make sure that your solar panels and your wind generators meet specifics of the codes and...

So who is really mad about the outcome of the game, who is happy? Personally Im pissed off, but they did put on a good game.

Esbatty I'm a Cowboys fan so I didn't really feel disappointed with the outcome or which team won. All I know is I saw a helluva football game. I wish EVERY game was that exciting. The Steelers and the Cardinals gave me an awesome Super Bowl experience. Heck I even...

Esbatty Laredo, Texas. Wow, this place is considered one of the "safest" place in the United States to drive due to how few accidents are recorded by Auto Insurance companies. BUT, and this is a big 'but', statistically half the drivers on the road are uninsured,...

Would you restrict on your Girl Friend's dress code?

kguru1979 @kguru1979 (381) • India 2 Feb 09

Many of us are possessive on our girl friends .. Even me too. They have their own dressing sense. Sometimes we may feel it as good and some as bad. Is it their wish that they can wear anything and roam around? Or do boys restrict...

Esbatty I'm not one to seriously object to what my girlfriends wear, sometimes if its too "sexy" for certain places we're going together or where she's going I make alternate suggestions of my own. But ultimately I don't own her. She's not my possession, I tend to...

cheating in marriage

okoyskabo @okoyskabo (186) • Philippines 2 Feb 09

i am often told by older married women that cheating on the hubby's part is inevitable in marriage. i hope this is not true to all marriages. :-(

3 responses

Esbatty If you want the truth, men in relationships do have fantasies of being with other women. These are simply fantasies but they do go on in men's heads. But as for actually cheating, that's another matter. It does happen, but its not "inevitable"; not every...

Esbatty Good old fashioned courtship is really missing in this day and age. I'm a big believer in it myself, but from what I gather from your statement the guy who's interested in you is being honest and upfront with you about what he's expecting: His first step...
