I have mentioned before that I am ambidextrous and, during our recent trip to London, it was a good job that I do possess this "gift." We stayed at a Premier Inn, this particular hotel was in Brentford. Premier...

TrashQueen NO, not everyone is right handed, but the majority are. Back in time, children with left handed tendencies were "taught" not to use the left hand, but to use the right hand instead. As they tried to do things with the left hand, the knuckles were smacked. I...

TrashQueen I just watched it again this week... I'm too nit-picky though. I hated that the boy who played young William was left handed & then the adult was right handed. That was something that was so easy to have eliminated in casting. Someone wasn't paying attention,...

TrashQueen You say Christianity is about love, unity & brotherhood, yet so many have died horrible deaths in the name of Christianity. As a whole, we are human before we are Christians. And as humans, we fail to see others as humans. We tend to compartmentalize &...

TrashQueen You can spray your foliage with a soap solution to help control pests. A teaspoon of dishsoap in a quart of water, & spray it on. I've heard that using a cigarette in the water is also a good deterrent... something about the nicotine, but I've never used...

TrashQueen Actually, I agree with you as to Rodriguez' for several reasons that the court explained better than I could. However, the expert witness testimony was accepted to show that Rodriguez veered into Hughes' lane, causing the Yukon to swerve into his lane to try...

TrashQueen Problem with that is I try to stay organic. I can't remember the last time I used a pesticide on the garden. And the only fertilizer I use is yard clippings, household waste, newspaper & sometimes a trip to the farm for some composted manure. Got any...

TrashQueen You sound like my parents did. Dad couldn't see anything that needed to be done at home but let a neighbor's yard need mowing & he was ready to volunteer. Used to drive Mom nuts. But they are both gone now, so no more fighting over it. I've always had a...

TrashQueen I didn't see the caption. Now, I'm left to wonder if s/he made it from a pattern or from a kit .. or if s/he designed it.... I wouldn't have thought the busy pattern in the background would have looked so perfect with the plain silhouette of the cowboy & the...

TrashQueen They do have those Singer sewing machines that are made just for children to learn on. They are battery operated so they don't have enough power to pierce a finger or anything, but they do sew well. I gave one to my niece a couple years ago, and when her...
