SimplyMe I actually sort of like Simon sometimes. He was right last night, it seems that Paula always says yes when Randy says yes to someone. I also think this year will be a good year. I sort of lost interest in the show when Taylor Hicks won. There is nothing else...

Mother-In-Law Name Calling

SimplyMe @SimplyMe (373) • United States 30 Dec 07

What would you do if your mother-in-law called your daughters (ranging in age from 15 down to 6) "b*****s"? Is it ever alright to call children b*****s? I am totally beside myself at this behavior and now have lost all respect for...

SimplyMe This is totally new behavior for her. Our family has had a tough year (all of us), and my father-in-law died in April. She has been saying weird things to my six year old like: "I wish I were dead so I could see Grandpa." I didn't like that either. I thought...

Do you take your pet/dog to the groomers or do you cut and groom them yourself?

UDDERONES @UDDERONES (887) • United States 8 Jul 07

We used to take our cocker spaniel, Sassy Sue to the groomers and it costs us approx. $35 each time. Well we bought us some doggie clippers and my husband has been grooming our dog. The last three times he groomed her and he did...

SimplyMe My dog hates to be groomed. She has been professionally groomed several times, but I feel terrible for the groomer because my dog turns into this evil creature. They have to muzzle her just to do her nails. I recently purchased a trimmer thing because it has...

I just saw that the TB guy, Andrew Speaker, is in the news again.

SimplyMe @SimplyMe (373) • United States 8 Jul 07

When the story first broke I thought the whole thing seemed a little fishy. Does anyone else find it curious that Mr. Speaker has one of the rarest forms of tuberculosis, and his father-in-law just happens to be a specialist in...

keywis @keywis (18) • United States 6 Jul 07

School Lunch...Do you pack one???

babygurl850406 @babygurl850406 (1322) • United States 12 May 07

Do you pack one for your kids or do they eat at the school cafeteria? What do you pack for them to eat? I have heard so many horror stories about school cafeterias....expired milk from like 4 months ago, moldy cheese on a...

SimplyMe I guess I'm just lazy, but my kids eat the school lunches. It is just easier for me that way. The lunches are made onsite and only cost $1.40, so I can hardly get cheaper than that by packing. If the girls do not care for the lunch that is on the menu on any...

SimplyMe I like Charla and Mirna the best. They are so funny and dramatic. Mirna is a nag, but she is a lawyer with a big mouth. They just make me want to root for them and they have done quite well in spite of Charla's stature. I was disappointed that Danny and Oswald...

A Sad Parallel...

Trace86 @Trace86 (5030) • United States 30 Apr 07

I got this in an email from a friend this morning. It seems very true but sad. What do you think? I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking...

SimplyMe A very good example. If only it weren't so true. And how do we undo the things that have already been done and people have already demanded and received. It is all quite a mess, as with the birds.

Are you a procrastinator?

buldwgz @buldwgz (1489) • United States 17 Apr 07

Several years ago my wife and I were both working at a hospital when they offered a class on helping to overcome procrastination. Knowing that I was a pretty bad procrastinator my wife asked if I wanted to go to the class. Without...

SimplyMe I am a professional procrastinator when it comes to certain things like folding laundry, cleaning the house and returning telephone calls. For other things I am right on them immediately. I guess I tend to put off things I believe are unpleasant, or tasks that...

SimplyMe That sounds like a terrrible dream! No wonder you remember it. My worst dream happened when I was living in an apartment above an elderly lady (she owned the home) and I dreamt her ghostly figure was walking down my hall and it stopped and stared at me. I lay...

Jennifer16628 @Jennifer16628 (184) • United States 12 Apr 07

I was wondering if you show affection toward your spouse or significant other in front of your children? What do you think is considered appropriate? My husband and I need to kind of rekindle that aspect of our relationship :). I...

SimplyMe I am sort of like you. My husband and I have been married 17 years and have 4 children. It seems all our time is taken up with the activities of family life and we don't get a chance to spend time together. We don't show much affection in front of the kids. A...

Will Americans always have to live with the threat of Terrorism ?

Swtrose @Swtrose (3385) • Canada 10 Apr 07

A CBS pull found that 81 % accept the threat of Terrorism as something that they will always have to live with. What are your thoughts on this?

SimplyMe Unfortunately, I think we will always have to live with that threat. More countries than ever hate us and want to harm us. The only thing we can do is slowly try to regain the respect of other nations and always be wary and on guard.

SimplyMe The worst movie I ever saw was The Cat in the Hat starring Mike Meyers. It was a total waste of money and time. It ruined the fine work that Dr. Seuss had. I think I fell asleep at one point during the movie. It was TERRIBLE!

Who does Juliette work for?

twilight021 @twilight021 (2059) • United States 12 Apr 07

Do you think Juliette is really spying for "the others" or do you think she feels some loyality to Jack? My thoughts are that Juliette will do anything it takes to get off the island. Weather that mean helping Ben, or halping...

SimplyMe At the end of the episode, I thought she was a "double agent", but now I don't know. This was one of the better episodes in recent weeks. I felt like they were letting the viewer in on some more information. The show had been bogged down until last night. I'm...
