There are many email providers out there, and I'm curious as to what you use for email. I actually have multiple accounts with both Hotmail and AOL. I think I have a total of 8 or so. Who do you use and how many do you have?

FloridaGator09 I can't stand popups either. I don't mind ads but when they open new windows, it just clutters things too much.

Here in the US a fast food restaurant is giving away one free "Blackjack Taco" to anyone who comes in between 6 pm and midnight on Halloween. The Blackjack Taco is something new at Taco Bell. When I was driving by and saw one...

FloridaGator09 I'm disappointed that they got rid of the chicken ranch gordita for 89 cents. That thing was amazing, I absolutely loved it. That's a reason why I don't want to get hooked on this black jack one, because they will just take it away like everything else...

Which do you prefer and why? I personally like the liquid spray because application is so much easier and faster. Less elbow grease. ;) What say you?

FloridaGator09 Yep, they still have it today, I think there is a bottle in my tack room. As for the liquid without the spray bottle, I don't know any advantages or disadvantages. Maybe cost?

FloridaGator09 I think one benefit of the paste would be when cleaning smaller tack, like a headstall, you wouldn't have the over spray from the liquid. With the pasts, you can control where the cleaner goes a little better than with the liquid.

It is an interesting topic to think about. From the beginning, we have supported capitalism, but there is no question that the form we have now is different than the pure capitalistic system the colonies started with. The...

FloridaGator09 Does this happen or not, I really cant speak on it. In theory it sounds like it could be plausible. However, though this may be in issue in the circumstances that you gave, I think a much much larger issue is with market maker manipulation. And to speak on the...

I think eating at the dinner table together as a family is very important. How do you feel on this topic? Do you think it is important for a family to have this time together? Does your family eat together for dinner?

FloridaGator09 The question is, do you make up for it by setting aside time to communicate together or do you make sure you do it everyday? I don't think it is important when you do it, but instead its important that you do it and often.

You see it everywhere, someone talking about how our Government has messed up in one way or another. It got me thinking, what was the most damaging mistake of the US Government in its 200 year lifespan? In recent blunders, I...

FloridaGator09 You talked about allowing our nation to go into debt. Our government use to run a balanced budget until a man, forgive me I forgot his name (if you know please do refresh my memory), basically said that on the long model, a government should not worry about...

FloridaGator09 In regards to China owning us, China owns US bonds. The nail in the coffin is going to be when all those bonds and notes are due and the US won't be able to pay them all. If this happens, it will be chaos because the US has always paid off its bonds and notes...

FloridaGator09 In comment to rjl1989, putting your money into a bank account is not truly an investment. You are loaning your money to the bank. With checking, you get no interest and even with a savings account the interest is around 0.5%. Yes a CD is more of an investment...

FloridaGator09 I think it is more important when the children are younger because it instills that value of family communication in them that should last their whole life. When they grow up and their schedules fill, it is harder to have everyone's schedule match up but those...

FloridaGator09 Could you speak more on the radiation you mentioned? It's my understanding that the signals are in the form of radio waves. I know prolonged exposure to radiation like microwaves can be harmful but radio waves? Radio stations are outputting radio waves like...

FloridaGator09 Did he unfreeze them? Man, that sounds horrible. I've seen stuff like that with the stock market here in the US. The SEC will suspend a stock or halt it then when it does/if it does reopen the price plummets. Investments are a risky thing.

With Halloween tonight, I have been thinking about all those years that I went door to door as a kid. I always used a pillow case since we did not have the money for the fancy little pumkin buckets. Plus, a pillow case holds a lot...

FloridaGator09 That's cute, they match their containers to their costume. I bet they get extra candy for that. ;)

FloridaGator09 Could you speak to the stock delay. I have traded stock for a while now and I have not seen this. If I put a market order in, assuming there is a buyer, it is immediate. Not only is it immediate, I can prove it with the Time and Sale list. Don't get me wrong,...

Most humans have the ability to filter their thoughts meaning they can decide what to say or not to say. I was watching an episode of House last night and a man had a condition that made him lost that ability. Whatever he thought,...

FloridaGator09 I like that you bring up relationships and it makes me think. If the relationship would be affect negatively because of the truth, then is that a healthy relationship? If it is based on a lie, wouldn't be better if that came to light and then decide if the...

FloridaGator09 I see where you're coming from by saying it's almost like a psychological part of humans. Yet, if Ecommerce has made the competition so stiff that traditional stores wouldn't have enough revenue to support their overhead, wouldn't they have to close shop...

At one time, if you wanted to talk to someone, you would do it face to face. Then with the emergence of email, face to face conversations seemed to dwindle. Then came cell phones and text messaging. If you had to ask someone a...

FloridaGator09 Webcam, didn't even think of that one. That's a whole new level because it is like talking in person with the visual and on the phone because its telecommunication. Interesting, thanks for adding that to the discussion!

FloridaGator09 Another cost that you didn't take into account and is a growing concern is gas. While some stores are close or on a daily route that you already travel, some malls or other outlets may be a good drive away. Right now, gas is at a relatively low price but when...

FloridaGator09 There's no rule against it, but I know from personal experience, the people giving out the candy seem not to like it. A friend of mine, 17, went out last year and hardly anyone gave him candy. So are people looking at these older kids as just trying to get...
