Anti-bucket list, what is something you never, ever want to do again?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (19986) 12 Jul

Many people have a bucket list, things they hope to experience or do in their lifetime. I do, I know. But I never thought about it in reverse before. There are things I wouldn't mind never having to experience again, for sure....

Anna @MarieCoyle It is wrong to deny mental problems. The parents are not responsible because of that. Should the children have a physical problem they would go to see a doctor. They must do the same for mental problems.

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (110408) • Wheat Ridge, Colorado 15h

I understand some banks across the world are no longer dealing in cash. Will you be happy when this happens, if it happens? I am kind of partial to the dollar bills in my hands actually. In this article some bank in...

Anna @RebeccasFarm Why should we trust the Banks? Many want to keep cash in their safe, just in case of banks failure. It happened in the past, no one wants to see their money vanish.

Anna @RebeccasFarm I was 19, I told to my father that I would have given to him my salary, he laughed and told me to keep my money, but not to waste my money. I bought many nice things, but I also saved money.

Welcome September

Anna @LadyDuck (437640) • Switzerland 1 Sep 22

Summer is not my favorite season. I like the long days, but I dislike the heat, the humidity and cooking in the heat. This first day of September is nice and cool. I can start planning more interesting meals. To celebrate the...

Karen Hellier @Kouponkaren (5289) • United States 14 Sep

I am trying to walk an aerobic walk 30 minutes a day now that the weather is getting cooler. An aerobic walk means a fast walk without stopping. It's not as easy as you might think, especially when I am walking my dog. When my dog...

Anna @kareng I also like to have my weeks with the same schedule, it's easier to keep track of what I have to do. Babysitting can really upset the flow.

I'm so angry and disappointed. Finally they have caught and charged the wildlife poacher Teo Boon Ching for killing rhinos for their horns yet all he has to serve is 18 months. That creep should serve over 60 years for this kind...
