Beggars Forum

Nobody likes to beg. What if there's a forum that gives away money to the needy? However, it only gives money to the person who is in desperate need of money. Do you need money? Tell us what you will do with the money and why...

sorchajack I think these type of heaters are great. We only have a small house, so we just have a space heater on upstairs and it warms it as long as we have the fire downstairs. I think that we are all so dependent on central heating nowadays , but it is so...

sorchajack My dog is named Ben. I did not name him, that was the name they gave to him when he was rescued. He had been called Ben for 5 months so I did not think it fair to change his name. www.psychicpaws.com

Do you let your dog sleep in your bed?

trickiwoo @trickiwoo (2702) • United States 7 Nov 08

Question for dog people - & if you aren't a dog person, let me know your thought

thedogshrink @thedogshrink (1266) • United States 9 Nov 08

Do you continue eating your food/drink if your dog sniffs or licks it? Do you purposely share food with your dog, like a lick for each of you from the ice cream? Do you think it is gross or OK? Or if it depends on the particular...

What do you want to happen after you die?

Sheepie @Sheepie (3112) • United States 7 Nov 08

sorchajack As an afterthought, at my age it is pretty unlikely that I will ever get a group of young people looking at my body with interest, but if my body goes for medical research.well..........hmmmm

sorchajack I really would not want to put my loved ones through the ordeal of any sort of funeral. I would like my old "carcass" to go for medical research, I will be long gone anyway. I have not got a lot of material stuff, but whoever wants it is welcome. I do not...

What would you do if the lights went out?

jillhill @jillhill (37353) • United States 26 Oct 08

Right now we are getting our first signs of winter. Snow mixed with a bit of rain...wind gusts up to 60 mph. Back in 1991 we had a terrible ice storm where we were without lights for four days. My daughter was home from college...

sorchajack I love it when it happens, as long as you have food in that is. I think it makes you appreciate the simpler things, and also makes you realise how much we take for granted such as electricity, and warmth. My family has always had good fun at times like...

Am I the only one left that washes dishes by hand?

Rocketj1 @rocketj1 (6955) • United States 27 Oct 08

We have moved many times in the years we've been married (18 years) In fact, we moved 7 times in the first 11 years of marriage (we've stayed put now for 7). In all these moves, we have never lived anywhere that had a dishwasher....

sorchajack I too have never owned a dishwasher. I dont see the point. Half the stuff like pans etc you have to wash out before they go in, so you might as well finish washing them. Plates and cups and stuff are easy to wash by hand...

Marie5656 @Marie5656 (336) • United States 26 Oct 08

sorchajack I moved from the UK to Spain at age 49. Basically I just wanted to start afresh. I have been here for nearly 8 years now, and although I take lessons my Spanish is still not very good. I think that you are right in saying that age plays a part in learning a...

mercy killing

rosesthorns14 @rosesthorns14 (803) • Philippines 23 Oct 08

This just came to my mind: If you came upon an obviously suffering and dying person who was in a great deal of pain, would you assist in their death if they were begging you to do so, with no help around?

twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 24 Oct 08

If one of your loved ones were to die, would you rather have them go slowly to give you time to say all the things you never did and get family there, or would you rather they go quickly so that they don’t suffer? I’d rather...

sorchajack I have watched most of my loved ones die slowly, apart from one. It was easier for her but a total shock for everybody else. I will say that if somebody you love is dying slowly, it is easier to adjust and some of your grieving is actually done before...

Cat dandruff

gypsyeyes1976 @gypsyeyes1976 (51) • United States 22 Oct 08

The new cat I have seems to have dandruff on her back. I've tried brushing it which has removed some of it. Does anyone know what will work to get rid of it? I'm hoping that it doesn't bother my allergies as cat dander does.

Can You Sleep In a Hot Room/House?

Chevee @Chevee (5905) • United States 22 Oct 08

In the winter time, I can't sleep if the room is to hot. I turn my heat (thermostat) down real low. I am not comfortable if the room is to warm. When my grand children spend the night, I have to turn it up a little higher because...

What is your opinion about Loneliness?

Sreekala @Sreekala (34312) • India 18 Oct 08

People feel lonely when they don't have enough friends or not knowing how to close the people they know. Sometimes being lonely is a part of the human condition. I think in Mylot people never felt the same because they are around...

sorchajack The only time I have felt truly lonely, was when my little dog died last year. Previously, I had always had a dog or a cat. Might sound strange, but I think it is just the knowlege that there is another living thing around you.

sorchajack I am so sorry that you have lost your cat. 18 years is a long time to spend with an animal, and they usually become much more than that. I know from past experience how hard it is to lose a pet, I have lost many in my lifetime. I am so glad to know that...
