Dear friends Mylotters. I know perfectly well that what I am about to write, to many of you seem really strange. I, you must know, I do not watch TV hardly ever! Not that I hold a particular grudge against this appliance. The...

TrvlArrngr I will be taking the kids out for ice cream later today to celebrate. Though a reason to eat ice cream is really not necessary. Happy Ice Cream Day!!

TrvlArrngr I just came back from seeing this movie with a friend. It was entertaining. The movie theatre was filled with women, mostly older. Channing was great, as was Matthew McConnaughy. I have been to places like that when I lived up in New York for 30th birthdays...

TrvlArrngr Not sure if you have a Kohl's store up by you, but check them for discounted multi packs. They frequently put the 48 count pack on sale. I picked up a nice holiday sampler for 14 dollars for 48 cups!

The economy of disease and toilets in Africa

Sourceseeker @Sourceseeker (1197) • United States 2 Jul 12

I use to believe all the crap from World Vision and others about disease and starvation in Africa and the third world until I went myself. The problem is not available food there is plenty of food all around, it is the ability...

zoeey_xx @zoeey_xx (8) 21 Sep 11

I love mean girls. I've seen it about 50 times (no joke) and know about all the quotes from the film. I think my favourite has to be when Damon's driving off in the car and shouts "I WANT MY PINK SHIRT BACK!" Damon's my favourite...

TrvlArrngr I just watched it last night. It was a fun, simple movie that everyone loved. I just dont think it would be worth 9 dollars in the theatre. Glad I watched it at a friends house. The prince did make it worthwhile :)

TrvlArrngr I just watched this movie tonight. It was pretty good. I am glad I didn't pay money to watch it though as it's more of a tv movie. My friends had a copy so I watched it over there.

JenInTN @JenInTN (27514) • United States 3 Jul 12

Ever wish you were stranded on an island?

Lmfisher666 @Lmfisher666 (820) • United States 2 Jul 12

With all the hustle and bustle of today's world, do you ever wish you could live on an island in the middle of nowhere? No cell phones, no TV, no annoying bosses. Just you and your survival instinct?

TrvlArrngr I do wish that sometimes. As long as I had shelter, food, supplies and 1 or 2 people then I would be ok. oh yeah, maybe my dogs too - they would love it too.
