I’d say it’s very likely that when my parents were married they received a set a silverware. But over the decades with kids and time and everything, I’m not sure how much – if any – of that original set is still around. And with...

marguicha I was given a set of silverware for daily use when I got married. It was for 6 people but there´s only one fork left after over 50 years. It is my favorite for kitchen use and also when I´m alone at home.

I live on a farm and we have several outdoor cats. The theory is that they will supplement what we feed them by catching mice in the barn. One of these cats is Barb, named because I once found her as a kitten sleeping in a coil...

Rose Galavia It surely is,cats love to be cuddled and most of the time they do it by getting our attention...letting us know that they do exist and want to be part of us.

vanny I think all cats do that...its their way to express love affections and demand since they can't master our language and we haven't yet learned theirs. You can interpret it whichever way you like until we find a way to decipher their language, purring, and...

You all know the gesture of extending your thumb and pinky and holding your hand next to your head to indicate someone should call you. But nowadays, shouldn’t that indicate they should call you … on a landline? In this...

So a couple of weeks ago SpaceX's Elon Musk gave a presentation about how he plans to build big rockets to send people to Mars. Then I think last week, the head of United Launch Alliance (SpaceX's rival) said that their rockets...

I work in a store and it seems like a lot of the older folks have to tell me why they’re buying wasp spray, or what they plan to do with the pie crust and can of apple pie mix they’re buying. Why do old people need to tell their...

NJ Chicaa Because they are lonely. And you are being paid to be there and to be nice so suck it up, smile, and be a polite listener. Imagine if it was your grandmother or grandfather. You'd want someone else to show them respect.

meowhisper If I've won the lottery, I'll give some money to my mom, give some to charity. I will move to Italy and live a rich, famous, satisfying life. I will give money to a friend who has helped me.

Mike First thing I'd do is dish a bit out to family. Then I'd get a house, a better car and maybe even a dog. Then I'd chill out for a year or so and plan what I was going to do with the rest. If I won a lot I'd get a PA to help me out.

Jo Ann People are people no matter where they are. People kill each other all the time. Unfortunately, this will probably get worse in space. You can't take a ride in the car and hang out somewhere till you calm down. Togetherness breeds contempt.
