COLLIS2 Spellcheck seems great on nearly every program. Too bad it doesen't come ready in all software applications.

weemam @weemam (13372) 8 Feb 07

Since I joined this site my two fingered typing has improved but my spelling I still wonder about, I can type it pretty quick now but spend a while checking the spelling, so I wrote this wee poem I hope you like it xx SPELL CHECK...

COLLIS2 Spellcheck is great for professional writers but the only problem I find with it is when you try to spell things like names or ethnic names or place names, spellcheck seems to get confused pretty often.

jennifer611 @jennifer611 (2514) • United States 8 Feb 07

Probably way better than you thought! Benefits of Eating Bananas Bananas are a great food for all around health benefits, for the average person, dieter or even athletes bananas may provide greater benefits than most fruits....

COLLIS2 The only thing I have to add to this is that I believe this is why more of the so-called "primitive" cultures stay healthier for a longer time in general. A primary staple food for most of these cultures is bananas.

COLLIS2 I always eat fast food when I want to indulge. It is the best whenever I want to splurge and reward myself even though this may not be always the best way to do it.

Do You Still Greet the People You Meet?

cuddleme01 @cuddleme01 (2725) • Philippines 27 Feb 07

i am just curious if you still observe the habit of greeting people you meet on the way. Greeting them good morning, good afternoon or good evening or good day. My parents always taught us to be respectful to everyone by greeting...

COLLIS2 That's definitely true. It's because like in life I guess, the less you respond to people, the less they respond to you.

Wouldn't it be great if myLot has smilies?

lenywp @lenywp (1963) • Australia 27 Feb 07

I reckon it'd be excellent! Most other forums have them, so why not myLot? It would add some color to the forum/community and it would be easier to let others know of your feelings/mood. Tell me what you think. :)

COLLIS2 That would be a great thing. It would be a better way of expressing ourselves I think.

How often do you rate discussions?

lenywp @lenywp (1963) • Australia 27 Feb 07

Do you rate every discussion you enter? Every discussion you respond in? I usually rate the responses in the discussion after I post in it. If I don't have anything to respond with, I usually just + the discussion starter and an...

COLLIS2 I rate every discussion I respond to. I feel it's a good way of letting people know they are doing a good thing by starting a discussion. I don't feel there are any irrelevant questions ever.

Local mother faces losing son to CPS because he's fat!

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 27 Feb 07

I'm sorry but where do we draw the line in government? Children's services locally has told a mother of an 8 year old boy who is obese that if he doesn't lose weight and continue to lose weight he will be removed from her care...

COLLIS2 I agree there is a line that should be drawn but maybe they are also trying to do it for his own welfare. I would concentrate more on doing what they say needs to be done because to fight against a system like that, you've got to have a lot of time, energy and...

Does anyone else think it's weird when "older" people refer to their "boyfriend"

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 27 Feb 07

or "girlfriend"? I'm talking elderly old, not my age old! LOL I have a lady friend in her 70's and everyone talks about her and her "boyfriend". I crack up every time. AT 70 something I just don't think of anyone having a...

COLLIS2 Most definitely. I actually prefer them to say significant other or something like that or even spouse. It just seems that people this past their prime in life should definitely at least be able to make some sort of commitment that goes beyond high school...

If you could have ANY job in the world what would it be?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 11 Feb 07

It doesn't matter what the "training" would be or the price of learning the ropes, etc. Just imagine if you were told pick your dream job and it's yours. Do you know what you'd pick? I can honestly say... I have mine. I'm a...

COLLIS2 My dream job would definitely be to be a mom to my three kids and manage web sites. I'm working on pursuing this goal. It's so much easier to watch your kids when you work from home.
