Feelings of Martha

gaminemadcap @gaminemadcap (160) • United States 29 May 07

I'm curious as to other people's reaction to Martha Jones. I loved her in the first episode, but I feel like the character has been struggling ever since. She's a little too wide-eyed at times (and a little stupid at others) and...

Pythonis Martha is boring compared to Rose. The romance can never happen, so that story line is cut short, and its a real change from the old show where companions werent romanticly involved. I think Martha is just a bit bland, and I wish she'd have more oppurtunity to...

Do you think a lobster suffers when its boiled alive?

mssnow @mssnow (9484) • United States 30 Aug 07

Most people know that the way you cook lobster is to drop a live one into boiling water. Some people say lobsters don't suffer because they have no nerve endings. I still think they must suffer some. I refuse to eat lobster and I...

Pythonis Lobsters don't hane the kind of nervous system you would need to feel pain, so I don't worry about it too much. theyre so tasty! And I hear they die or go unconcious immediately, so even if they could suffer they arent suffering.

Do you use Public Transportation?

LightninStrike @LightninStrike (5915) • Saint Vincent And The Grenadines 29 Aug 07

Some of my friends are really lazy, and they never use the bus, subway or taxi. Only the taxi when they go out and they want to drink, so they cannot drive. They are stuck to their own cars! Do you use public means of...

Pythonis Most of the time I use public transportation. My car is used to go to the grocery and for long distance trips, but to go to work every day I take the trolley. This is because there is nowhere to park where I work, so the trolley is cheaper than paying for...

What do you hand out to kids on halloween?

Laurla98 @Laurla98 (786) • United States 30 Aug 07

Pythonis I alwats hated people who didnt give candy for Haloween. Its just what you do, and my parents wouldnt let me have it if it was fruit or a home-baked item. Afraid of poison or deisease or razors or something. I like to give out the kind of candy I loved when I...

Pythonis I usually talk to her about once a week. But if I am upset about something, or worried, then I could call everyday. Its good to have someone to lean on when things are tough, and my mom usually has good advice. When I see her in person she can get annoying- I...

I tried getting a book on knitting, but the pictures were hard to understand. Do you knit? Is it hard to do? What kinds of things do you like to create? Can you suggest some ways that I could learn to knit?

Pythonis I have seen him twice. First time was at the Area2 festival in DC and the second was the Reality tour in NYC. It was awesome. He does a really fabulous live version of "i'm Afraid of Americans," which is particularly valid now.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer seasons on DVD

brokentia @brokentia (10389) • United States 12 Dec 06

Do you own any seasons? How many do you own? Do you plan on buying them? I own all the seasons. I absolutely loved the series and wish it would carry on with one of the potentials (now slayers) in the future.

What do you serve at a shindig?

twilight021 @twilight021 (2059) • United States 1 Apr 07

If you are like me, you love spreading the word about Firefly and Serenity by hosting Shindigs ( parties where you have friends over to watch Firefly). When I do a shindig I like to have themed snacks. Perhaps some strawberries,...

Pythonis You could do those ice planet things that River had in the movie- make a mold and put a tring in then fill it with sorbet and freeze it solid. Would be fun!

Pythonis Your parents sound abusive to me. Thats classic behavior. Please be aware that emotional abuse is just as real and seious as physical abuse, and try to get help or get out.

David Bowie Turns 60 Today!

Idlewild @Idlewild (6090) • United States 8 Jan 07

Yes, the man who gave us Ziggy Stardust, Heroes, Young Americans, and Suffragette City is 60 years old. Are you a Bowie fan? What are your favorite CDs or eras? I like his early Ziggy Stardust era stuff, his Let's Dance...

Pythonis Happy late birthday Bowie! I got to this thread a bit late. I'm right now really into Heores, especially "Sons of the SIlent Age." It showed up in a Niel Gaiman short story, whcih really set the tone for the tale.

Stuck On David Bowie: Are you having trouble adjusting to new music and bands?

DarlingGirl @DarlingGirl (745) • United States 13 Mar 07

I'm hopelessly stuck in David Bowie mode. Ever since high school I've been a loyal David Bowie fan. Bowie already had an impressive body of work by the time my friends introduced me to Ziggy, so I had a lot of years to catch...

Pythonis I totally agree. And he's 60 and still fabulous! He really ushered in several different eras in rock, so don't try to get over him! There's no use! He will forever be in your mind. Good stuff, Bowie.
