horsebackrider629 I don't often use my house phone. If someone important needs to get a hold of me, they will call my cell phone. I actually do not even give out my home phone if I don't have to. I use to use it all the time, but after so many telemarketers calling, I just gave...

horsebackrider629 I wake up in the early morning hours for no apparent reason. Happens to me about 3 times a week. It stinks because by the time I do get back to sleep, I do not want to wake up when I need to get up. As for your problem, I think they have some kind of...

Did you buy a house this year or recently?

apples99 @apples99 (6556) • United States 1 Nov 09

I recently made a topic about home buying and of course a lot of people are saying that its a bad time to buy a home, and they might be right I've also seen the news on the housing market, but the fact of the matter is it may be a...

horsebackrider629 I'm curious as to why you say it is a bad time to buy? The market is flooded with foreclosed houses and they are awful cheap. That plus the government incentive (I think it has been extended), it seems like a win win to me. Unfortunately I'm only 17 so I don't...

Government Messups: Which one hurt most?

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 31 Oct 09

You see it everywhere, someone talking about how our Government has messed up in one way or another. It got me thinking, what was the most damaging mistake of the US Government in its 200 year lifespan? In recent blunders, I...

horsebackrider629 In recent history anyways, I have to say that the bailout of AIG insurance was a major mistake. I don't agree with this too big to let fail thing. If they are going under, then let another company who has been doing good buy parts or all of it at market price....

With Halloween behind us, it must mean candy is now flooding your homes if you have kids. When I was younger, my mother regulated how much Halloween candy I was allowed to eat to keep me from eating tons of it in a few days. Do...

horsebackrider629 Yep, I agree. My little brother brought home a FULL pillow case of candy and it looks like it will last for several years, well, until I get a hold of it anyways. =]

What provider do you use for email: MSN, Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL?

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 1 Nov 09

There are many email providers out there, and I'm curious as to what you use for email. I actually have multiple accounts with both Hotmail and AOL. I think I have a total of 8 or so. Who do you use and how many do you have?

horsebackrider629 I use Hotmail because it ties into my Live Messenger account. That combination saves me from remembering two different account names and passwords. I also still have an AOL account from the days of dial up but rarely even check it. I've heard of Gmail but...

Pumpkin Bucket or Pillow Case: Which do/did you use?

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 31 Oct 09

With Halloween tonight, I have been thinking about all those years that I went door to door as a kid. I always used a pillow case since we did not have the money for the fancy little pumkin buckets. Plus, a pillow case holds a lot...

horsebackrider629 i know what my family always did was carry the pumpkin buckets and then bring plastic grocery bags to fill up once the pumpkins got too full... then we swited to putting the candy in pillow cases once the pumpkins got too full

Liquid or Solid Leather Cleaner?

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 31 Oct 09

Which do you prefer and why? I personally like the liquid spray because application is so much easier and faster. Less elbow grease. ;) What say you?

horsebackrider629 i have only used the bar soap and that doesnt seem so bad... ive always been told that the liquid spray often sprays too much and ruins the leather but the bar soap followed by neats foot oil has always worked great for me!

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 31 Oct 09

horsebackrider629 i agree in the fact that it is important but unfortunatly my family doesnt have dinner together at all. normally its everybody fends for themselves.

Wireless or Wired Internet Connection: Which do you use??

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 31 Oct 09

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 30 Oct 09

FloridaGator09 @FloridaGator09 (66) • United States 30 Oct 09
