...but it was triggered by a discussion I responded to from Jo Miller @pjmurphy called 'Would You Pay $1250 to See Michelle Obama'. And no...I wouldn't pay that much to go see anyone. But then I thought...and you know what?...

dragon54u I wouldn't pay to harm someone no matter how I felt about them. Have you ever been hit by a rotten or fresh fruit? It hurts. I don't hate anyone enough to hurt them, it's very self destructive.

I was reading a story in the press today about the number of ordinary people who decide to have some type of cosmetic plastic surgery in an attempt to boost their self-esteem. The most popular procedure was breast augmentation...

dragon54u In America we condition our women from the moment of their birth to be dissatisfied with themselves. The media harp at them to buy this makeup, wear this dress, and you'll be happy. If you're unhappy, plump up your lips with collagen and you'll get the...

KFC is no newcomer to fattening foods. A few years ago they made a sandwich called the double down which was fried chicken with a sandwich made inside of it. It probably caused heart attacks just by looking at it. Well, they've...

dragon54u @thislittlepennyearns Of course I eat unhealthy things. I love KFC but only have it a couple times a year. I rarely eat away from home, it's a rare treat. However, I see a lot of people here in my apartment complex bringing home sacks from fast food places...

dragon54u No, I would not like this sandwich! Yes, America is fat. There are many reasons but I think your example of this sandwich is definitely one of them although not the sandwich itself. If a person like this abomination it's likely that...

So over the years I have tried many work from home jobs. FM Avon nuskin all the MLM business but none work far to many on the market and never made any sales. Two years ago I joined a adult text company and I do love it. But I...

dragon54u I personally would not want to do your job but I am glad you found something that you like and helps support you. I have been trying to get some kind of work at home job in the past few weeks and haven't had much luck at all. I'm beginning to feel pretty...

I've noticed that there are some very clever efforts to humanize AI (artificial intelligence) devices, particularly Alexa, on the radio lately. Marketing has to be clever in order to sell things and this particular campaign is...

dragon54u I agree. Even after all the stories about how intrusive these devices are, sales are steady. I did not even want a "smart" TV but that was about all I could get when I had to replace my 90's RCA I had to leave when I moved 1800 miles. My brother warned the...

dragon54u I remember that and have thought of it for years as each new mind-numbing craze has caught on. Now you can even have a smart speaker in your Roomba, the automatic vacuum that skates around cleaning up after you. Lots of people these days do very little...

I've been curious about these quick breakfast items but at $2.49 there was no way I would try them! I was at 99¢ Only the other day and they had them for-of course-99¢ each! So I picked up 3 of them to try. This morning I...

dragon54u That is definitely better. But in my country convenience is valued even before a healthy diet! Thus, products like this are very profitable.

dragon54u You can have it at home. Just put whatever you would add to an omelet in a container and freeze it. The night before put it in the fridge. Scramble an egg in a bowl, add the stuff to the bowl, microwave for 75 seconds, stirring halfway through. That's it!...

dragon54u It's the same thing as making an omelet. It's just less messy with only a spoon or a fork to clean afterward. You could do the same thing by freezing individual portions of omelet ingredients then adding them to an egg then cook it. It appeals to the...

and so easy to do! I would definitely make them again. The amount of actual "active" work to produce them was minimal--mixing the dough (5 minutes), portioning the muffins (5 minutes), and then griddling them (10 minutes). The...

dragon54u Thanks for sharing your source so I can look it up! I prefer making my own stuff because like you said, I know exactly what's going in there! Those look really delicious. I hope you enjoy them! I'm going right now to find the recipe!

dragon54u I've used the weekend to cook ahead so I won't have to cook this week. Tonight I'm having fajita tacos--I made the fajitas out of leftover turkey, I'll spread some beans on flour tortillas, add the fajitas, fold it over then use cooking spray on the skillet...

dragon54u @cyclonewriter No, that's definitely NOT fair! I have not heard that any of them have to go to work. Isn't it illegal to make someone labor without compensation?! They have a union, I believe, they should get them onto this. See, this is why I don't trust...

dragon54u I feel kind of bad for them, too, but what most people don't realize is that these workers are essentially on paid vacation. When they go back to work they receive every cent of what they would have made in back pay. They are not losing anything. However, a...
