cinnamonwoods I agree in part with what you are saying. The big 3 do need a total makeover. They ship jobs overseas, or to Mexico/Canada. They buy parts from China, all in an effort to save money. However usually the work and parts are inferior to American made. Also these...

cinnamonwoods I agree that couples should try many different avenues before they divorce. Counseling, making dates with their spouses, whatever. Especially if you have children. But on the other hand I know of people who SHOULD be divorced-they fight constantly and are...

cinnamonwoods I love vegetables especially asparagus, peas and corn. Luckily my daughter is following in my footsteps. My husband does not eat vegetables or fruit (another thing I love!!!), and neither do his children. They are missing out on a lot of flavor, as well as the...

Is there such a thing as a good or bad person?

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 15 Aug 08

That is a question that I have thought about many times over the years, and I have been convinced for some time now that the answer is no. People are not good and bad, they are simply different. As a young man, I assumed that...

cinnamonwoods Hi Pose123-I believe that there are good and evil people. Take serial killers for example. Studies say that these people are born missing something in the frontal lobes of their brains. Or could it just be that they had such a horrible childhood that they...

Is there nothing taboo here?

Barb42 @Barb42 (4214) • United States 13 Aug 08

cinnamonwoods Personally it is much easier to open up to a complete stranger, one you cannot see. You will more than likely never meet this person-they don't know you or anything about you other than what is posted here. They don't know your real name, your address or...

cinnamonwoods Growing up I went to church every Sunday, so I was raised to believe in God. But, I am an agnostic. Just not quite sure. I lean toward there being no God, simply because if he created the world, then where do the dinosaurs fit in? We have proof of dinosaurs...

Do you believe in spanking your child?

tlb0822 @tlb0822 (1410) • United States 11 Aug 08

I personally don't see how spanking your child to discipline them helps. I mean my fiances sister, smacks her daughter for smacking. I mean isn't that a little hypocritical. I understand that parents have the right to spank their...

cinnamonwoods People need to discipline children, and I think spanking helps reinforce the discipline. You can tell your child no, and try to explain to them why you are saying no, but that doesn't always work. And when a child deliberately does something wrong, spanking...

saundyl @saundyl (9783) • Canada 11 Aug 08

In thinking that I'm going on holiday in a couple days...I got wondering what do others do with their pets? Do you take them with you? Have them stay with a family member? Leave them home and have someone check on them? A kennel?...

cinnamonwoods We travel constantly, and in fact are full-time RV'ers. So our pet goes with us most of the time. Occasionally we will fly somewhere to visit family or something. In that case we leave our dog at the kennel. It is nice to know that you don't have to worry...

cinnamonwoods I think your friend is being incredibly selfish. She is simply thinking of herself and the adventure she is about to embark on. It doesn't sound like she has a job to go to there, and travelling overseas is very expensive. And I can't believe that she couldn't...

cinnamonwoods I am a little paranoid. It seems that if something good is about to happen and I tell a friend or family about it, it falls through. So now, if my husband comes home and tells me we're moving to Australia, for instance, and it is something I really would like...

cinnamonwoods I have been thinking about getting a tattoo for the last 10 years, and never had. I guess I am a little afraid of it, you know the "pain" thing. I guess I am a wimp! I've always wanted to get a dolphin on my ankle, and people with tats that I've talked to says...

cinnamonwoods I don't necessarily shop for labels, but more the store. For instance I won't shop at WalMart or a store like that for clothing, but rather I go to the Limited or Macys, etc. The clothes do cost a little more. I do think that paying a little more for clothes...

cinnamonwoods I have left my hometown many times and always seem to come back. I have travelled coast to coast, but I really like my hometown. It is small (about 35000), and is a well-kept town, there isn't a lot of industry there. I think that everyone should leave their...
