Yesterday while I was making a pot of coffee, my oldest asked me if he could try some. I said sure, why not? I gave him a little sip of plain, black coffee! Ewwww! He asked "How can you drink that?" So then I put in my flavored...

dagda24 Don't get me wrong, I'm a complete coffee addict, but I wouldn't let my children try it because it's so bad for you health in so many ways. I view it very much like alcohol and cigarettes and think it should have an age limit on it, it's addictive and...

Aurora borealis or the northern lights colors the skies of the north. It is seldomly seen, but the moment that you saw it will really be worth it. The dancing light comes in different colors, and it lasts in different time span. I...

dagda24 I spent four days in Norway a few years ago and we went on a trip to see the aurora borealis. We went up a little baby mountain (covered in snow)and waited about three or fours hours. Just when we'd given up any hopes of seeing it all this green light...

I'm hoping this thread will help us cut down electricity usage at least briefly! Its an idea that crept into my mind a couple of days ago and I'm gonna post it in as many forums as possible. Right now I am switching off the fan in...

dagda24 I just remember being taught as part of our electronics science module that most bulbs use a large amount of powere when first switched on and if you're just leaving a room for half an hour it's more energy efficient to actually leave it on. It's certainly...

dagda24 This probably won't work. I'm not sure about appliances, but when you turn a normal light on it uses as much energy to switch on as leaving it running for about half an hour. So, I'm guessing if that original surge uses that much energy in lightbulbs then it's...

Today I am "interviewing" for a job to teach children computer classes. The interview is super casual - at Starbucks. Have you ever went on a job "interview" like this before? What did you decide to wear? (I have a feeling that...

dagda24 This happened to me once when I applied to work in a shop as a teenager. I wore smart cloths still, as I did not know we would be going to a coffee shop for the interview. I found the whole experience really strange. I felt like the casual situation was...

dagda24 It's so reassuring to hear words like this from you and everyone on here. I totally agree that it's a dirty trick. I understand where your ex is coming from though, I've not had much experience with young children so find them very scary. I'm not good with...

dagda24 You're right, it is lying. I don't necessarily believe you should be married, but deifinitely in a stable, committed relationship based on love, trust, honesty and respect. At the end of the day this child is going to learn a lot from these two people and...

dagda24 It is scary. I've heard stories of girls who want babies having one night stands with strangers to get pregnant, then not telling the man or wanting anything from him, but this is the first time I've known, like actually known, someone that has done something...

Every so often I travel abroad and I hear bad words about filipino like being, pushy, arrogant and cheater. I am filipina and it hurts. Do you think it is true? and why filipino have to do it if it is true?

If you were to win lets say,10 million dollare what is the first thing you would do when you got it.Also Would you donate some to charity,give to friends and family,would you keep working or tell your boss to take a Fu#@&ng hike?

dagda24 I don't think I'd tell my boss to take a hike. Think he'd be more offended if I was really nice to him, but didn't give him any money. Lol. No, my job's not too bad so I'd probably through a few coins his way, but mainly for his kids. Investment is a good...

dagda24 Me and a friend said we wouldn't tell anyone, then go in to work as usual for nine am. Work as normal in the morning then at around half past eleven we'd just stand up and say "Can't be bothered with this, I'm going home!" Seriously though, I would retire...
