timelord50 fortunately I have not been bothered by them for a while now, but when I did, I used comet or ajax cleanser powder around counter tops and other places where they came in and it worked quite well. Not as sticky as sprays but have used them as well.

timelord50 I would tend to agree with you. Telemarketers are the most annoying group of people on the planet. The majority of them won't take no for an answer. I placed my name on the do not call list and it did not matter they called anway. My solution is an...

twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 20 Jul 09

I’m sure that most of us here at MyLot have seen the classic horror movies where some dumb bonehead sticks his hand in a malfunctioning garbage disposal only to draw back a bloody stump. Personally I wouldn’t stick my hand in one...

timelord50 Well I hope most people would use common sense and make sure that the disposal is turned off first thus eliminating any risk. Other than that if there is any kind of problem call a plumber to deal with it.

What does everyone think about Norton Anti-Virus?? Do you like it?/Dislike?

Danny550 @Danny550 (26) • United States 13 Jul 09

I feel like it doesn't do much for my computer and now that my subscription has ended, I am bothered everyday to buy the new version. I ignore the daily message even though it urges me that my computer is more likely to be...

Caller Tells Al Sharpton that Sarah Palin Killed Michael Jackson

AnjaP @Rollo1 (16676) • Boston, Massachusetts 12 Jul 09

You may have noticed that there are numerous Sarah Palin discussions going on at myLot, with everyone expressing their opinions as to why she resigned as governor of Alaska. There have been many with some very convincing arguments...

timelord50 I find it hard to believe that anyone in their right mind would take this seriously. Whether you are a supporter of Sarah Palin or not and no matter what you thought of Michael Jackson this is too far fetched to be believed. Someone is smoking too much...

bdugas @bdugas (3577) • United States 13 Jul 09

Have you heard the latest that Obama and his crew want to make it so that the soldiers that are putting their lives on the line for us each day over seas, are not allowed to smoke. You know they face many things every day that...

timelord50 I don't believe that the government is trying to take away anyone's liberties with this issue. It is a health and safety issue. It is clear that smoking can cause cancer, be it cigarettes, pipes, cigars or chewing tobacco. We should be looking at this from...

I have a son, age below 7. Sometimes I really don't know whether to allow him to the public toilet alone since I (mummy) are not allowed to go in Men Toilet. Vice versa, I can't bring him in to Ladies toilet since he is a boy! I...

WHO Wants Sarah Palin to Campaign for Them?

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 12 Jul 09

Outgoing Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has said she'd be willing to campaign for candidates who share her views; she even went so far as to say she'd stump for conservative Democrats. The only problem is, many Republicans are...

timelord50 Sarah Palin essentially committed politacal suicide by quitting as Governor with 18 months left to go in her term. She turned her back on the people of Alaska who voted for and supported her, and to the Republican party as a whole. She will be forever...

timelord50 I think on a first date the male should pay as he was probably the one who suggested the dinner date. I have experienced a situation when the other party was uncomfortable with that and we agreed to split 50-50.
