Betani I do. It really helps me unwind at the end of the day. And I wash my hair at night because for some reason it has more body in the morning that way. When I wash it in the morning, it is very limp all day.

Do you COVER your fingers when keying your PIN?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 21 Jun 07

I am guessing that most of us have at least one bank account. Whether it comes with bells and whistles or not, it at least allows us to withdraw our money via an Automated Teller Machine a.k.a. ATM. Normally, I try to enforce a...

Betani I don't cover my hand. That's too obvious. I do, however, play with my fingers and deliberately make mistakes and backspace over it. *shrug*

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 21 Jun 07

Betani I've never had any trouble with Paypal. It's the only way I could have opened up my Etsy store. The only thing I have to look for are the paypal scam emails. Luckily I know enough never to respond to those in any way, and to report them right away.
