We are moving to Ohio in two weeks. The town we are moving to still has a drive-in theater. I havent been to one since I was a teenager. I cant wait to go again. So have you ever been to one? Or are you so young that you've never...

lisaviews We have 2 near me. I know this discussion is from so long ago, but I ran into a website today that reminded me... you can research the history and search for some drive-ins near (or far) from you. http://www.drive-ins.com For those of you who have never heard...

lisaviews Sorry you don't have that great of access to one. Hopefully you will, soon. However, I have heard about a "virtual" expo/show... maybe you could attend that... online!

I'm a bit peeved here. Why aren't referrals automatically linked as friends? I have two new referrals and I have no way to contact them to help them until/unless they approve me as friends. I can't send them a message...

lisaviews I know I thought it was weird, too! However, one of my referrals was added as a friend immediately. I seriously don't know how that happened, as it didn't happen with my first one. This is probably just one of the little kinks myLot will eventually work...

If you ever watched this program, it's about an Australian Chef named Curtis, who finds unexpected shoppers in grocery stores, meat markets etc. He offers to go home with you and cook for you and your significant other. Now if...

lisaviews I haven't seen the show, but this really intrigues me. If he would be giving a cooking lesson, as well, I would probably totally go for it. Afterall, you can never have too much education, especially in the kitchen!

I am not a coffee fan. I can live with it in fact. Unlike my hubby, he can't start the day without his cup of coffee. I drink tea. I like it. I like it simple, no sugar, no milk but sometimes I like it with lemon and honey. I...

lisaviews How about "All of the Above?" In my home, we have several different kinds of coffees, several teas, and several sodas, then add flavorings for waters. We are beverage junkies (oh! Did I forget the several types of hot chocolates?) lol! We can't live without...

Normally I don't but lately in the evenings I find myself craving coffee so I have been indulging the craving. It doesn't seem to keep me awake as it does some people. Do you ever drink coffee at night?

lisaviews I drink coffee lots in the nigttime hours. I love the flavor, and with the different additions you can make, it is better than dessert! Yum!

I usually drink coffee in the morning. Not because it wakes me up but because it warms me up. Coffee does not keep me awake in the morning. If i drink it at night I can still go right to sleep. I guess caffeine doesn't affect me...

lisaviews I can drink coffee, or any other caffeinated beverage at any time, any day. The only effect it gives me is either taking away my headache (from lack of caffeine... lol!) or keeping it away! Yay!

I've noticed there are two major times I start discussions... when I first log onto mylot, or when I am just about to leave. If I start one when I first get here, it means I'll have a lot of time to comment on responses right away...

lisaviews First off, I haven't started many, but those I have, I started whenever I got them whim to do so. I believe a couple of them weren't on my "regular" myLot timing, but I was so frustrated and felt the need to vent, that I just popped into here and began...

lisaviews As a former server, and former fast-food worker, I know what it is like to be appreciated and not appreciated. It doesn't matter where you are. "Please" and "Thank you" are always nice to hear. Usually, people within these jobs are already having a rough day,...

lisaviews Hi, Karen. The original Cricut (pronounced like the insect "cricket") can cut from 1 inch to 5 inch dies. You program it. It can cut over 100 different shapes (or letters) from each cartridge. It also does special effects, such as shadowing, silhouetting, end...
