I just bought a new HP Notebook and I like it a lot, except that it is quite loud. I can constantly hear the fan running and it isn't a subtle hum. The sound isn't "unhealthy" sounding and it isn't problematic. They system...

I bought an HP notebook the other day, fresh out of the box. The advertised hard drive size was 250GB. When I opened up the "Computer" window, it showed that I had 180 gigs left out of 221. I had neither installed or downloaded...

Do you just accept and believe anything your church tells you or do you let your mind think about it and question it? I raised this question because a young catholic mathematician I know said that if the Pope told her that 2+2 = 6...

locke49 Absolutely not. Although that it is said that the Church is God, it is the people of the Church that really make it what it is. I have heard some priests say some ridiculous things, and ordained or not, I never blindly accept information.

locke49 I feel guilty for thinking this (let alone posting it). Seeing obese people eat fast food disgusts me. I know everybody gets hungry and it may not be the case that they're eating like that all the time (but you can see where I'm coming from right?).

I live in California and almost EVERYBODY has been to Disneyland. I've always been curious if it's such a big deal for other people. Please state where you are from and how many times you've been to D-Land!

locke49 Ah yes, I forgot about international Disneylands. But the one in CA is the original (and in my heavily biased opinion) the best. :) Thanks for your response.

Now this wasn't something I just thought of. People who don't like animals don't have to be bad people. Pet owners can be bad people as well. But I'm talking about people who can't stand dogs, cats, horses, goldfish...they balk...

locke49 I probably would not trust a person who doesn't like animals to look after my cat for instance. I wouldn't judge somebody solely because they don't like animals - as long as they're not violent - then I would have a problem with them.

Bottled water is bad for the environment, but some people just hate the taste of tap water. I use one of those purifiers on my tap and the water tastes just fine - I save money and the environment. How about you?

GrandpaBob gets credit for me starting this discussion. Do you order pizza for delivery? When they deliver the pizza to your door, do you tip? How much do you tip? I usually tip a couple of dollars. I don't believe they...

Hi Mylotters! Do still read and post response to a very long discussion? Me, I don't I find boring and I loss interest on it. But, if that discussion really has a catchy content like every sentence is substantial and very...

locke49 I can usually tell if a long discussion is worth it or not after the first couple of sentences. If the author is engaging and the length of the discussion is essential to make a point, then I actually prefer the discussion to some of the "shallower" ones.

Which websites are you using for news??

locke49 I like the New York Times. I don't live in New York, in fact, I live on the west coast! But I have been counting on NYT for years and they always seem to deliver accurate, unbiased information. I also like their website setup - very appealing and easy to use.
