liquorice @liquorice (3887) 3 May 08

MandyB1978 No, Facebook and MyLot are very different websites. Facebook is not a money-making website and its intention is to be a free place where people can interact online - where you can meet new friends, get in touch with old friends again and share your life with...

Guardian208 @Guardian208 (1095) • United States 21 Apr 08

I am in the very beginning stages of diabetes. I am also a believer that our bodies can often times heal themselves if we take proper care of ourselves. I am not opposed to medicine or medical intervention. I just think that we...

I like writing..but I have absolutely no talent

underdogtoo @underdogtoo (9579) • Philippines 21 Apr 08

I like writing and, when I was young I fancied myself a writer, and that was what I wanted to be. My mother though, kept discouraging me from pursuing it saying that writers make no money. I'm glad I did not pursue that dream...

MandyB1978 I would recommend getting the book "Cancer - Step Outside the Box" from Amazon.com or Clickbank.com as an e-book. It has a number of natural cancer cures and ways of handling cancer. It really is excellent and has a lot of info.

MandyB1978 Yes I've watched all three parts, have all three DVD's and also the three books. I don't think it is possible to really say a favourite part because each part adds to the others and you won't understand the different parts unless you take them in order (at...

How many books do you read at a time?

Foxfire1875 @Foxfire1875 (2010) 26 Feb 08

Obviously you can only read one book at a time but what I mean is how many do you start and jump from one to the other. I usually have about 3 or 4 books that I'm reading and I wondered if this is unusual? Do most people only...

MandyB1978 I don't normally only read one book at a time but I'm not really sure what my average would be. I would say 3 or 4 definitely wouldn't be unusual.
