Ever wonder where the firetrucks, anbulance or police are going?

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 27 Jun 12

I remember as a kid and still as an adult I can listen to the sirens and tell you what's coming, and I always wonder when they pass where they are going. My friends always say I'm nuts but I'm curious. Maybe, because where I live...

watergirl Actually, I feel bad whenever I see a firetruck, ambulance, or police car passing by. I wonder where they are going and who they will help. When I see these vehicles on the road, I feel alarmed. I can't help but feel sorry and concerned for those who need...

My toe is killing me!

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 27 Jun 12

The last few days my toe has been killing me. I can barely walk on it without a shooting pain. I really can't explain how it happens either. I just noticed slight pain which has gotten worse. I think I've been beating myself up in...

watergirl I can only think of two reasons why your toe is hurting: 1. You have high uric acid in your body. Visit your doctor and he'll probably give prescription and curb your intake of nuts and other foods high in uric acid. 2. You have a bad case of ingrown on...

ANTIQUELADY @ANTIQUELADY (36440) • United States 26 Jun 12

I know alot of men cross their legs like women do now but when i was growing up men didn't do that. I have two grown sons & i have never seen them cross their legs. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with it...

watergirl I attended an etiquette and social graces seminar back in high school and I was told crossing legs should be done by gentlemen. Women, on the other hand, must refrain from crossing legs. Instead, women can "cross" the legs with the other behind one not one...

I Sat Next to A Corpse

NailTech @NailTech (6874) • United States 26 Jun 12

Could you sit next to a corpse on a plane for this long and not ask for a refund? The man got on the plane ill and then later died after lift off so she had to sit next to him for awhile before they landed again. How would you...

watergirl I guess it would depend on how or why the man died. If he died because of a contagious disease, I would definitely sue the airline company for allowing boarding of that man in the common passenger area. At least, they should have placed him in a contained area...

watergirl As for your child, try explaining to her that playing can sometimes bring about pains, cuts, and bruises so as not to give him trauma from this incidents. But for the other child, the one who hurts, there is a possibility of an underlying disorder. If the...

Pacquiao Lost: Do You Think He Deserved it?

usemyname @usemyname (640) • Philippines 10 Jun 12

Actually, I was not expecting Bradley to fight the way he fought today. But, I got to admit, he's got game. Although he didn't injure Pacquiao physically (to say the least), that fast hands of his surely was the key for that split...

watergirl I was rooting for Manny especially since he dominated the first 6 rounds. But after that, he seemed to slack off. I don't know why but he looked like he wasn't moving as fast as he usually does. I was beginning to think the game was a setup to necessitate a...

watergirl Wow! that's really nice. In my place, farmers market is 10 minutes away. Unfortunately, I can't wake at dawn for the fresh cheap produce. I will have to have a firm resolve and start soon. I know the prices there a way cheaper than that of the supermarkets.

Spider-man not in The Avengers

jhamylubz @jhamylubz (29) • Philippines 5 May 12

Why Spider-man not included in The Avengers? In fact, he is the first avengers or MARVEL hero shown in 21st century. I also guess, The Amazing Spider-man, will be a great hit movie but are they planning to start the story again?

watergirl I haven't tasted snake and I don't plan to eat one any time soon. It's not because I don't like the idea but it's the fear of eating animals with venom. It is for this same reason I am not open to eating dogs, cats, and rats for fear of rabbis contamination.
