minki_malink I think recycling things pays better in America, my friend in Canada was saying they could get enough for gas money if they saved up cans or bottles, but I don't think we get anything here.

minki_malink To be honest, I think you're taking it too seriously. People are going to doa nnoying stuff like that no matter what, and theres really not much you can do about it over all.

We just put the trampoline out for the season. Do you have one?

seamonkey @seamonkey (1976) • Ireland 10 Apr 07

I got one for my boys a couple of years ago, so this will be our third trampoline season. We always leave it out as long as possible, and get it back out again as early as possible. The second season we had the tramp, I dug an...

minki_malink I had a trampoline all my life that my Dad put together, but we recently removed it. I didn't have any say in it :( Anyway, I don't know if having a trampoline closer to the lawn would be much safer. I mean, you're unlikely to do TOO much damage as long as the...

Should I get involved?

Savvynlady @Savvynlady (3684) • United States 10 Apr 07

I met someone online; we met through a message board that talked about celibacy; He mentioned that it was hard to meet a woman who had her own job, didn't have a lot of men and were celibate; I told him that I was celibate and...

minki_malink Um...well, what did he say? Does he want to meet you? Do you feel like you might be in love with him? Is he interested in you? Its hard to say whether you should get involved with that little information.

When is recess?

AngelNicki @AngelNicki (412) • United States 10 Apr 07

My little girls, who are 7 and 10, don't have recess at their school. They get 20 minutes to eat lunch in the gym, which gets transformed into a cafeteria for the hour, and sometimes if they finish eating early they can shoot...

minki_malink Is recess lunchtime or morning tea? Those are what we call it in New Zealand. We used to get 15-20 minutes for morning tea and 45 mins-1 hour for lunch. And we were always outside, as hardly any NZ schools are in big buildings.

Do you wait until the last minute to do things?

dedicated_28 @dedicated_28 (1383) • United States 10 Apr 07

Hi. I admit that I wait until the last possible minute to do things. I feel like its hereditary. My entire family does this. Now my husband on the other hand, is always complaining about me doing this .He says that by waiting to...

minki_malink I also procrastinate really really badly. I am always late and I can't help but wait to the last minute because I never ever feel inspired to do anything. My boyfriend is the complete opposite and it drives him mad that I am like this.

About my trash men

4cuteboys @4cuteboys (4099) • United States 10 Apr 07

I feel so terrible. They just switched companies, and the old place they had a machine that lifted the trash can and automatically dumped it into the truck, so I was ok with leaving my trash a little nastier than what I probably...

minki_malink Hmm, I'm actually not sure how they do it! We always put our stuff in bags, I don't think we even use bins much...so we never really have that problem.

Why does God allow bad things to happen? People/Nature etc or God controlled?

James72 @James72 (26790) • Australia 10 Apr 07

This is an age old question and I am interested to know what others think. A woman is murdered, an elderly man is hit by a car, a child is abused and is maltreated and continues on to do the same to their own...

minki_malink I always think that God has left us to our own devices, although I don't know for sure. It just seems to make sense for the whole "murder/rape" themes. I think he does help when you pray, but I think overall we're left to make the best of our time on earth.

minki_malink I don't think anyone can be a perfect parent, just like nobody can really be a perfect person. You can get as good as you can get, but you're still human and you're still going to make mistakes, no matter what. When I was a kid my parents were perfect in my...

minki_malink That sucks that they didn't let you know. I truly believe that the reason they didn't tell you was because they were grieving, like you said. I mean there is no way it would have been an intentional thing if you were close to them, so hopefully you will get a...

Should there be a warning label on baby formula?

mamacat @mamacat (22) • United States 9 Apr 07

minki_malink I actually think its a really bad idea. Solely because choosing whether or not to smoke is a choice. Breastfeeding isn't always a choice for everyone. Some people simply cannot breastfeed. Sure, its great to encourage those who CAN breastfeed to do so, and...
