Vehicle Choices..

enchantedleppard @enchantedleppard (1541) • United States 15 Mar 07

We are looking into buying a new vehicle soon.. with all the makes and models and dos and donts there has been a lot of thought going into it. What do you look for when purchasing a new vehicle? Are you looking at performance and...

Molly322 We bought a new car last year. Our chief concern was safety and with the fuel rates these days, fuel economy and whether it took regular vs premium was a huge concern for us. Because we didn't have a car with any cargo space, we looked primarily at cars in...

Need tips on enriching my soil..

enchantedleppard @enchantedleppard (1541) • United States 13 Mar 07

I dug a new flower bed last spring and it is in desperate need of nutrients.. I want to do this as organically as I can- but my question is can I do something now to help it before Spring planting (in a month and a half) or is it...

Molly322 I would imagine that turning the soil would be a must. After all the winter snow and ice and rain that will have compacted the soil, turning it will help to aerate it and make it more receptive to receive the nutrients and to filter water or nutrient...

What would be your choice?

ctv101103 @ctv101103 (859) • Philippines 12 Mar 07

Let's say a pregnancy becomes life threatening to the mother. A choice is given - whether to save the baby (but the mother dies) or save the mother (but the baby dies). Moms/Would-be-moms, what would be your...

Molly322 I think it would depend on a lot of factors but I would say if it was a choice of one over the other, I would choose the mother. She can try again later to have another baby or she and the husband can adopt. I'd especially choose the mother if there were...

My doctor won't listen to me!

susieq223 @susieq223 (3742) • United States 11 Mar 07

I came home furious from my appointment the other day. I went in with a list of things I wanted to talk to the doctor about, but he was in such a hurry he wouldn't let me talk! He was more interested in my cholesterol than what I...

Help-- my spider plant is looking pretty sad.

enchantedleppard @enchantedleppard (1541) • United States 10 Mar 07

Ok, I have a green thumb but I have an absolutely horrible time with these plants!! They are supposed to be so easy to care for so I must be doing something wrong. My plant has brown tips and some of the leaves are yellow. I only...

Molly322 If the plant is potted, is it draining well? Perhaps it could be root rot? Or perhaps the plant needs some additional nutrients beyond simple water?? I am not a plant person by far but those are the few initial thoughts I had.

Question for all those who are married

the_dreamer2005 @the_dreamer2005 (1175) • United States 9 Mar 07

I'm in my early 20's and I'm worried about some things regarding marriage. I hear all the time that people frown on those who are young getting married. I don't want to have people constantly asking me why am I married so young...

Molly322 There really is no right or wrong or cut & dry answer to this. I think most people frown on young marriages because they do not think the individuals are mature enough for that kind of commitment but seeing as people mature at different rates, it doesn't...

Are you afraid of Spiders?

jennybianca @jennybianca (12912) • Australia 7 Mar 07

I am. I hate them. Even as a child I hated spiders. I think I got this from my Father, who doesn't like spiders at all too. We had a lot of spiders at Port Augusta, where I was brought up. The most dangerous are redbacks.They...

Molly322 I am terrified of spiders! I was bitten as a young child and had a horrible allergic reaction so I tend to freak out when one comes into the house or drops down from the ceiling to say "hello!" My cat, on the other hand, loves them! My husband came home...

Do you find a quick "best response" discouraging?

pilbara @pilbara (1436) • Australia 7 Mar 07

This morning I went into a topic that had started 3 minutes before. It had one response 1 minute before and the original poster had already marked this the best response. I'm here to try to be helpful, not after best responses,...

Do you take responsibility or cast blame elsewhere?

pilbara @pilbara (1436) • Australia 6 Mar 07

There is a man who is suing a casino. He lost a lot of money gambling and wants them to return the money. Apparently it is not his fault, he didn't want to gamble the money but they kept on sending him offers, freebies and...

Molly322 I think the natural first reaction is to be worried or even afraid simply because HIV is very scary and there is no cure. It is a human reaction and nothing to be ashamed of. But after the initial shock wears off, I think it would be important to be...

Who Has The Right To Decide How Many Children You Should Have
