What did you get for losing a tooth?

Amber @AmbiePam (99145) • United States 11 Jun

This is my niece, Annelyn, and she just lost a tooth (obviously). I think a lot of cultures have “The Tooth Fairy”. So I’d put my lost tooth under my pillow at night, and in the morning a dollar would be in its place. Obviously,...

Jimlos Tatooth @Ineeddentures (4329) 9 Jun

Black Sheep

Amber @AmbiePam (99145) • United States 10 Jun

paigea Hope you reconnect if that's what you want. No, bumping my head doesn't trigger memories for me. Once, walking into a smoke filled home gave me a sudden, sharp reminder of my childhood home.

Whatever Happened to Kids Going Home at Dusk?

celticeagle @celticeagle (175748) • Boise, Idaho 8 Jun

When I was young it was the standard rule. All the kids in the neighborhood were expected to be heading home by dusk. Now I hear kids out at 11p. and some until 12:30a. . Do kids have parents, rules, expectations of behavior?...

paigea When my kids were young, we lived in an area where kids would be out very late. It's dusk until about 11 pm this time of year, so dusk is already too late for kids to be out.

How Do You Feel About Debt Relief Companies?

LindaOH @LindaOHio (191216) • United States 6 Jun

There is a debt relief company that has been advertising many times a day on a channel that I watch. They handle credit card, personal and medical debt. You must have at least $10,000 worth of debt to apply. Actual customers...

paigea I think people who get into credit card debt are paying a lot of interest. So, they are paying a lot more than the price of the items they purchased. For that reason, I'm not against them reducing what they owe to credit card companies. I think I'd ask my...

Michele @Aquitaine24 (11878) • San Jose, California 24 Jun

In case you haven’t followed, it is the Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers. They have each won 3 games. No goals so far. If the Oilers win, it will be a record. They would be the first team since 1942 to pull off a reverse...
