nicoffeine Well, you do have a point about the parents... Although my point there was not necessarily helping out with the homework and such, rather to motivate their kids to learn more and support them if the kid finds a specific area of interest. My parents married...

nicoffeine I think people can earn their living through their art, but that depends on how you define art. Actors and musicians are some of the worlds most powerful people and they definitely earn through that. Writers, graphic artists, fashion designers, dancers,...

Do you proper communication will resolve all he univesal issues? If so why?

johnravikanth @johnravikanth (352) • India 16 Feb 07

Did you feel the power of communication? what did it teach you?

1 response

nicoffeine No, I don't think so. People can understand each other but still thoroughly disagree with what the other one believes. There will always another thing to go against something, it's all part of nature and part of why people are individuals - because they all...

nicoffeine I agree. Individually, the members are awesome, but the band is just good. This is a good example of the whole not being the least bit equal to the sum of its parts. The impact of Audioslave to music doesn't even come close to what Soundgarden and RATM did....

I think they need to move a bit faster

damageinc86 @damageinc86 (351) • United States 10 Jan 07

with their storylines and writing. There are so many dull dead air kind of moments and it's starting to get on my nerves. I think it would be even funnier if they kept it moving a bit faster.

comedy

television

the office

nicoffeine I think that if the storylines moved faster, the show would lose the plot. The pace is actually quite "realistic" as compared to real life because working at a real life office (especially if you work in a paper company) is a pretty uneventful thing. The dull...

nicoffeine I don't know who's really cool... But for sure it isn't Hansel, because, you know, he's so hot right now.

nicoffeine Toby is the HR guy right? If he is, he isn't gay on the show. He has a daughter and he once tried to put some moves on Pam. In real life... I have no idea.

Groups who are re-forming.

joey_matthews @joey_matthews (8354) 15 Feb 07

I heard today on a talk show that some of the classic bands are return. The eagles, The Police, Genesis and (maybe Wham) What do you think? We've seen a return of boy bands like take that. I personally think it will be nice...

nicoffeine It doesn't really matter to me what purpose they have if they re-form as long as they make great songs. It won't hurt the band members to have something to feed themselves and their families. I love the Police and if they were to reunite, I just might...

nicoffeine Oh man. Educator's incompetence... I don't think it's that, it's part of it but its not like it's the sole reason. There are a lot of great teachers out there among the whole lot of educators in the country... But that whole lot? Not that big. Teaching doesn't...

nicoffeine How retro is retro? 70's? 80's? And what is the concept and inspiration for the clothes? It is good to tie everything in into one theme.

don't organize fashion shows!!!

shekharj @shekharj (296) • India 16 Feb 07

during fashion shows those kinds of outfits are on display which we can't use in real life. i think fashion shows are nothing but only a means to show flash. girls hardly wearing anything make long parades in front of a number of...

nicoffeine Uhmmm... Why should they feel embarrassed? Everyday when we go out of our houses, we parade ourselves in front of people don't we? And I beg to differ on the statement saying we can't use the outfits in real life. Most runway shows are for ready to wear...

Should children go to funerals?

Evacuee @Evacuee (1147) 15 Feb 07

Do you think children should go to funerals of loved ones? This discussion came up in our family last night and my daughter in laws family did not agree with me that they should. I said that I hoped my two grandchildren come to...

nicoffeine Yes. I think it is important that children are made to be aware of death. It isn't evil. It happens everyday and they should be able to realize that it could happen to people they care for. I think they'll be able to cope better been exposed to it somewhat at...

What is perfect life?

I think Life can never be prefect.. What's your thought?

nicoffeine I think if we can accept that life can never be perfect then it can be perfect. It's all part of the great irony of life. If we have come to terms that no matter what we do, we'll always want something else, then maybe we can just look at what we have and...

nicoffeine I think for lower level education, a broad scope curriculum is in order. The children get to be exposed to more things and they have more choices as to what they want to pursue later on in life. The only problem with this is if that the teachers aren't good...

Who is your favorite fashion designer?

mixey62 @mixey62 (305) • United States 11 Feb 07

Mine is Marc Jacobs! I absolutely love his cool retro looks and unfussy details. It's like fashion for "cool kids". He also makes a cheaper lable (Marc for Marc Jacobs) that is more affordable for the likes of me. I love the...

nicoffeine I haven't seen the Macy's line but I've seen and loved the Nine West! I'm strange in a way that I won't splurge for clothes but when it comes to shoes, I indulge. Too bad I couldn't get it where I'm at, but I'm still hoping! I really like being a DIY-er. I...

nicoffeine This is so true! Not all fashion has good style and sadly, there are people who buy into bad designer fashion. Fashion is a hit or miss thing, and most of the time, runway ensembles miss and become horrible trends. But I think it is good give designers...

nicoffeine I seriously think Zoolander is the best movie ever made. It's no heart wrenching, life altering, inspiring piece but considering I've watched it probably more than 10 times in this lifetime, I think it's the bestest ever. It's a self admitted farce of a...
