TaxiLady @Ghostlady (2116) • United States 20 Dec

Well, I needed to go mail some cards and get my Lotto, so I headed up to Lynn Haven and routed my stops. Mail first, then up to Groc Outlet. Got what I needed or wanted. Stopped at my OLD Cigarette/Lotto store and got tickets,...

SIDDI KIMPOLE @SIDIKIMPOLE (2909) • Eldoret, Kenya 20 Dec

Beliefs and superstitions are common in almost every society. Inasmuch as religion and science try to dispel their existence, beliefs and superstitions seem to stick fast onto people and they keep being passed down from...

Okay, so I mentioned in a previous post that my friend and I would be taking part in the monthly Yahtzee tournament at a local restaurant. It’s usually three rounds - top half, bottom half, and full board. The players with the top...

So Did Any of You Actually Go Out?

celticeagle @celticeagle (183495) • Boise, Idaho 29 Nov

I'm wondering if there is any die hard shoppers out there? Those that brave the brick and mortar to find some good deals on Black Friday. I remember how busy the mall used to get during the holidays. Now I wonder how pathetic it...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (52596) 23 Nov

I was aware that Dolly Parton has a line of mixes and things to cook and bake, but had never tried one. I most generally just make whatever I make from scratch, and never use mixes. But my daughter loves anything cinnamon, and she...

What is the greatest adventure you’ve ever had?

Amber @AmbiePam (108600) • United States 14 Nov

When Hunger is Ignored

Loretta @noni1959 (11682) • United States 1 Nov

Senior moment #9,121 for The Horse. Do you remember when "selfies" were a thing?

The Horse @TheHorse (233208) • Walnut Creek, California 31 Oct

As you know, as a rule, I do not take selfies. They were a "thing" maybe 10 or 15 years ago. Perfectly good photos of the Eiffel Tower or the pyramids at Giza ruined by a bunch of wahoos blocking the view. But I had to take a...

Those damned Democraps do not care if veterans or children starve

Terminator #36 @mememine (16) 30 Oct
