cpamanda How is your store going? I sell a few items here and then, but with a full time job and two part time jobs, I could never keep a store going. They are raising their fees though and the deal about having to accept credit cards if you accept paypal is a rip off....

What are your currently airing top TV shows?

Tesa @xphile777 (426) • United States 5 Jan 07

I can't come up with a Top 10 list of shows currently on the air because I don't believe there are 10 good shows out there, let alone the best 10. However, on my short list of series worth watching are: 1. Dexter tops the...

cpamanda We just recently bought TIVO so I am becoming a tv junkie. It is bad. Although everyone said I never rested enough and what better way to rest, than to veg in front of the tv. For me I would say 1. Grey's Anatonomy 2. What About Brian 3. Jericho 4. Numbers...

Wow! Things are coming together now. They finally let us know what is going on. I am not really sure what to think yet. Now that the show is starting to make sense again what do you think about it?

cpamanda I love this show and I love Jake. But I do have to say, he seems like a super hero, not a regular guy since he is always saving the day. Tonight's episode, at least someone else had to come to his rescue. The whole thing that this could actually happen scares...

What is your biggest pet peeve?

immadismom @immadismom (475) • United States 26 Feb 07

I have a long list of things that bother me, but was wondering what kind of pet peeves others have and if mine are unusual or the same as others.

cpamanda Do I have to pick just one? I think in that case my biggest one would have to be stupidity. I deal with it a lot and just cannot hardly deal. A close runner up would be liars. I have no patience for that either.

cpamanda Hmm, you have some great ideas. I would say the 4 year old and the dog should be enough for you to keep you busy. Or maybe you need to trade tapes with someone else so you can mix it up a bit. I do think the pole dancing class might be fun, but you would need...

What qualities do you and your best friend have in common?

hazydazy @hazydazy (783) • United States 23 Jan 07

I am quiet. She is loud. I am tall. She is short. I am fluffy. She is as thin as a rail. She is out going. I am laid back. She is a go getter. I like to sit back and see what happens. We have almost nothing in common. Yet...

How long should you let a car run in cold weather before driving?

ElusiveButterfly @ElusiveButterfly (45941) • United States 26 Jan 07

My rule of thumb is 5-10 minutes depending on how cold it is outside. If it is below zero I will run it for 15 minutes. Our neighbor will run theirs for 30 minutes. That is overkill if you ask me.

cpamanda 30 minutes seems excessive. I would say the time to warm up depends on where you live and how cold it gets at night. I am horrible about always running late. So....to my husband's dismay ((he is a mechanic)) I usually turn it on with the defrosters running,...

cpamanda I think diet pills might work at first, but I think they are dangerous. Plus, if you do not address a change in your lifestyle/eating habits, you will just put it back on once you quit taking the pills. I am a firm believer in not eating at least 2 hours...
