I will survive!

Toni @toniganzon (82624) • Philippines 27 Oct

For two nights now I've been crying. I think of the pain my family caused me. But this will pass. I know it will. It gave me some realizations that I failed to acknowledged before. Peace will come someday. I know. As of...

Max Crisp Sorry I’m a bit late reading this, but I felt I should just come and give you a hug. Families are always the ones that hurt you the most, because you love them. I think we are all just trying to survive. Hope you’re feeling better today...

L.A. Top Ten Songs: Tiny Dancer (#3)

Four Walls @FourWalls (89886) • United States 29 Oct

No, I didn’t plan it this way, but two of my all-time favorites show up on both sides of the countdowns about songs mentioning Los Angeles and Hollywood. Whodathunkit? Well, they’re favorites for a reason. Let’s head to L.A.,...

Max Crisp Yeah, great song. I know for a fact that Elton has no interest in “hot A$$ ladies”. More for me I say! Incidentally, Bernie Taupin was on “The One Show”; on our BBC1 last week promoting his first solo album for 40 years. He also said he was...

Do you get the laughing gas?

Amber @AmbiePam (132143) • United States 29 Oct

I’m not sure how many countries use “laughing gas”, but I had some today at my dentist office while she was fixing what grinding one’s teeth can do (I thought I was just getting a mouth piece made). I mentioned I was starting to...

Max Crisp I remember having it as a kid, but I don’t think it’s used in our dentists anymore. Certainly not the ones I’ve been to. Usually they administer a numbing agent with a needle if they have to do things like root canals, and with a more than concerning look of...

In other health news …

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (77) • United States 27 Oct

So I guess you’re wondering what I’m doing about my enlarged liver. Nothing. My gastroenterologist who is also a liver specialist can’t see me until August 2027. I asked for anybody in his office at all and all I could get was...

Max Crisp They should be investigating the root cause. There are many reasons your liver is enlarged. It could be your medication and the doctors are causing it. I’m not suggesting stopping your meds, but those prescribing them should be more interested. What’s the...

Eight Hours.

rakski @rakski (163867) • Philippines 27 Oct

Yes, it's been a while since I slept 8 hours straight. I am so used to sleeping 6 to 7 hours and usually have a toilet break in between those hours. I must have been very exhausted. The moment I lie down and closed my eyes, I'm...

How Does This Happen?

Courtney Dutton @MommyOfEli2013 (91215) • Rupert, Idaho 27 Oct

So today my mom went to get new tires on her car, and replace the sensors that tell her if they need filled with air. Well, she just messaged me to let me know she got home and that all 4 tire sensors went out on the way home!...

7 responses •

Max Crisp No, it’s never happened to me. In theory these sensors are a great idea, but only if they work; saves you having to manually check the tyres. For all four to go at the same time sounds like dodgy workmanship. She should get them to come out and sort her car...

A New Bond Contestant

celticeagle @celticeagle (195369) • Boise, Idaho 26 Oct

A new actor has been added to the group being scrutinized lately. Looking for the new actor to take the place of Daniel Craig. He's 30-31 and his name is Jack Barton. I like his look, so much better than the 5 or 6 Harry Potter...

Max Crisp Sean Connery was only 32 when he played Bond in Dr No. Looked much older though. There was a piece in our media recently discussing who would be next. There was 3 actors named, but Jack Barton wasn’t one of them. Maybe the powers that be didn’t like the 3 and...

Banana Split.

rakski @rakski (163867) • Philippines 25 Oct

This is a classic, right? This is hubby's favorite whenever it is available. So whenever we go to this particular cafe, this is definitely his order no questions asked. We used to have Magnolia Ice Cream House way...

Many people are cutting back on the Halloween candy this year.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (64565) 25 Oct

I have heard some people say that this year's chocolate prices are so high that chocolate is not on the list to buy for Halloween. From what I have seen of the prices in stores, I can definitely understand that. Some say they will...

Max Crisp I’m definitely cutting down on eating it. Chocolate has rocketed in price and has become a luxury item. Call me a misery if you like, but I don’t like giving kids sweets, so no use coming to my door.

The Final Countdown (I hated that song)

Amber @AmbiePam (132143) • United States 24 Oct

Chilled Papaya and Passion Fruit Soup is what I had as an appetizer followed by Teriyaki Salmon, and Baked Alaska as dessert. It was a wonderful last night, with sunshine all day and a thankful feeling at dinner. We’re all glad...

Max Crisp I don’t like that song either. I would probably swap your soup for the broccoli and cheese. I love soup, but warm not chilled. The rest of your meal I could definitely go with. I don’t think I’ve ever had Baked Alaska, so I would definitely opt for it. Yes,...

His Problem Not Mine

YoghurtGal @flapiz (24478) • United Kingdom 25 Oct

I Think Our Scheduler is Taking a Piss

YoghurtGal @flapiz (24478) • United Kingdom 23 Oct

Crazy weight fluctuations

Max Crisp My ideal weight for my height, according to the BMI guidelines is 133 to 179 pounds. I am slightly over that, so I’m not concerned. 133 seems very low, and I don’t think I will ever be near that, unless I’m seriously ill. For a female of height 5’6”, you...
