Kandase @Kandae11 (49170) 2 Nov

The elderly man who made this comment was not referring to failure in business, relationships or life in general. Even though his actual words were: " As we grow older all we can look forward to is failure.". He was actually...

Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special

Kelli M @spiderdust (12357) • San Jose, California 27 Nov

This was something I didn't realize I needed in my life until I saw it on the Disney+ menu Friday night. It's irreverent, offbeat, and silly, but full of holiday cheer. If you get nostalgic for the Star Wars Holiday Special...

A few days ago when I watched a Fifa football match and it was the first time for me to see a football player wore such kind of mask. Since he was a Korean football player. At that time I had no idea why he wore a mask like that....

High Winds Yesterday Here

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (78033) • United States 3 Dec

Yesterday the winds in Rocky Flats were 90 mph plus. Rocky Flats is only 20 minutes drive from where I live. So a high wind day yesterday, though I did manage to walk around the complex at least. I find the high winds...

One o'clock and all was not well

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (148214) • United States 3 Dec

The internet went down just before one this afternoon. Probably some wind damage from yesterday. So I took a nap since Bob was napping too. When we got up we went to El Dorado to get gas in his little car and all the grocery...

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (78033) • United States 2 Dec

But I must. I get no time not much to be here anymore and by the time the evening rolls around, I have to unwind and stop typing too. What time do you usually wind down in the evening? I usually try to get offline by 7PM. Now it...

popciclecold @popciclecold (27858) • United States 3 Dec

Just got home. I was lucky it didn't rain anymore, but clouds are heavy, might do so any minute. I made good timing. Stores not crowded yet. It is lunch time I think I'll have a couple of hot dogs, and take a much needed nap. Just...

Got the hooks on the ornaments...

Stacey @xstitcher (26100) • Petaluma, California 23h

And then got the rest of the ornaments on the tree. I still don't think that it looks like much, but it is what it is. I don't know what happened to the angel from the house, but maybe I'll find it yet. The top of the tree...

Where To Run?

Kandase @Kandae11 (49170) 1 Dec

Have you given any thought to what you would do in the face of a global disaster or Apocalypse? Where would you run ? Where could you hide? Some have given it much thought - so much that a number of entrepreneurs are remodeling...

No wonder people don't send as many Christmas cards these days!

snowy @snowy22315 (146383) • United States 2 Dec

I had visions of sending a lot more cards than I usually send this year, until yesterday. I spent 6.00 for 10 stamps!. I remember when stamps were 7 cents a piece. Something needs to be done about...

Is This True?

popciclecold @popciclecold (27858) • United States 2 Dec

For years, I have heard about a snake, called the courtwhip, guess that how you spell it. Well, first what I heard is that it whistles, and stands upon its tail, chase you down, when it catches you, it wraps itself around you, and...
