My Passport Came in Just 6 Days

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (85) • United States 29 Oct

That’s incredible. The U.S. Government never works that fast. And that included processing and mailing time. I’m simply amazed. They’ve changed the format of the pages. Or passports here are good for 10 years.

Scott Ganschow @teamfreak16 (48640) • Denver, Colorado 29 Oct

We’ve just three songs left before Go Away goes away. Forever. (The “forever” sounds better if you read it in the voice of Squints from The Sandlot.) Anyway, time for some classic 90’s funk rock, courtesy of the...

Ron Rybs I am a great fan of black cats. My first two were black and polydactyl. Gaia is mostly black, with some white patches underneath and Missy is a tuxedo

Yes, I really sang rap music during my eye surgery

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (85) • United States 28 Oct

Leave it to me to do something weird. They were playing music that was not from my generation in the operating room today during my eye surgery so I asked, why aren’t you playing 80s rap music? Yes, I was allowed to talk during...

Does she look like model material to you?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (85) • United States 28 Oct

I am not a person who is particularly interested in beauty. I do not think anyone is ugly, and everyone has their own beauty, whether it be internal or external. So I guess my title is a bit misleading because what I’m actually...

It isn't even Halloween!

snowy @snowy22315 (214366) • United States 28 Oct

Have you heard of ‘slam poetry’?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (390563) • Rockingham, Australia 27 Oct

I’d never heard of slam poetry but it originated in Chicago in the 1980s and was first brought to Australia in the ‘90s when Words Travel CEO Miles Merrill moved here. Merrill says there is no such thing as slam poetry and it...

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (85) • United States 26 Oct
