wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 23 Jan 08

I am experience jet lag and I am wide awake the whole night (now it's 4.30am my time). I thought of forcing myself to sleep and lie in bed for a couple of hours, but it didn't work! So I got annoyed and would rather get up and do...

Pepromene The last 2 nights have been sleepless nights and Mylot ended up with my full attention. :) I didn't have internet access for a few months until just a few days ago. Once I logged back in here and came across some old friends, it was hard to tear myself away...

Gold Plated Ornaments

sudiptacallingu @sudiptacallingu (10879) • India 24 Jan 08

Have you ever worn gold plated jewellery? Do you own any and do you like it? I know gold plated jewellery has its own uses. Its convenient for daily use and is cheap too, so no major heart-break if it gets lost or stolen. But I do...

Pepromene I have a gold plated charm bracelet my son bought for my birthday when he was 7 years old. It's my absolute favorite piece of jewelry besides my wedding ring. Those are the 2 things I wear everyday. I have other gold plated jewelry that I like and wear...

Pepromene I know no one is perfect and we're all going to do something at one time or another to irritate our friends. Everyone will have disagreements and days they're just not quite so friendly. All of those are to be expected. The one thing I can't tolerate is...

Pepromene Right now my notifications are all off, including ones that notify me about comments. I don't have a huge list of friends yet and it's easy enough for me to go through and respond to their discussions. I'm not sure that I'll bother with turning it on. I...

Pepromene I have to say Firefox is my favorite. I'm an old Netscape user, moved on to Mozilla then was hooked on Firefox the minute I first tried it. I love the tabbed browsing, it makes browsing so much easier and less messy. The add-ons are great and it's easy to...

How you choose your avatar?

iDivision @iDivision (1412) • Latvia 24 Jan 08

I see very much different avatars used here.. someone added their own picture (like me), but others like to add funny or maybe sometimes not so funny photos or even gif images. i would like to know why you choose your current...

Pepromene The avatar I'm using right now was just a random picture I found that seemed to fit with the name I'm using. She seemed to be appropriate for a goddess from mythology. I very rarely ever use my own picture. If I do I don't keep it for long. Most times it's...

Here's my dilemna. I'm using a shared internet connection and I do not have administrator rights to block or allow specific websites. I'm fairly sure now that it's not the ISP that is actually blocking the site. I know many of...

Pepromene I'm basically pretty boring when it comes to my user names. I try to use the same one for most sites I join, with a few exceptions when I don't want to be spotted so easily. Usually it's variation of my real name and part of my birthday. Easier for me to...

Pepromene I usually use Johnson's Baby Bath to wash my face. It's very gentle, doesn't dry my skin and removes makeup very well without burning my eyes. Sometimes I use plain old Ponds Cold Cream to take off makeup. I use the Puritan's Pride Retinol Cream for my...

Cheese Please!

CoffeeAnyone @CoffeeAnyone (3210) • Canada 23 Jan 08

I was given this tip about a month ago or more. I was told if I wrapped my open cheese block in tin foil instead of siran wrap it would last much longer without having the mold grow on it. It appears to be true. I open a fresh...

Pepromene I've never heard this before. Actually seems like a helpful hint worth trying. It seems I'm always buying cheese and half of it ends up going to waste because it dries out so much faster than we use it. I used to use one of those bag and seal machines for...

Pepromene Everything I said above is assuming that your children are still small. With a good understanding of the differences and the similarities, they will have a better time making their own decision as they mature.

Pepromene Answering this question from a purely Islamic perspective, I would say that your children should be raised Muslim. You also need to encourage your wife to practice her own faith. Together you will be able to give your children a good understanding of both...
