EnglishTeaDuck Matters of life or death shouldn't be decided based on "business decisions"! A politician, a wealthy CEO and a laid-off factory worker should all get EQUAL treatment for equal diseases PERIOD!! Well said, Annie. It amazes me that this point is even...

Do You Still Buy and Use Cookbooks?

GoGirl149 @GoGirl149 (152) • Canada 12 Nov 09

I haven't opened a cookbook in years. In fact, I'm thinking of giving away all my old cookbooks as they're just gathering dust and taking up valuable shelf space. Whenever I need a recipe I just look it up online. The internet...

EnglishTeaDuck That sounds wise to me - I am currently in the hell you speak of, paying off VERY slowly as I try to fight the interest rates! When I am done I will not have a credit card again. I was talked into it being told 'having no credit is as bad as having bad'. I...

EnglishTeaDuck Firstly, not really going to be an issue, as I don't have a phone. Secondly, yes, as someone else said, I worry that the guy was trying to steal it if I did have one. That might sound hard but that is the sort of world we live in, unfortunately. I suppose...

Do you let your children participate in Halloween? If not, why not?

Bearballew @Bearballew (1148) • United States 26 Oct 09

There is such controversy right now with this event. It has such dark roots that many don't allow their children to participate. Schools have cancelled events centered around this while others allow alternative events for children...

EnglishTeaDuck Actually I did have a lot of friends who did celebrate it, but like I said it is not such a big deal in England anyway. I don't think we would even have this discussion because everyone would just do whatever and no one would care. As for the...
