I think the killing of the innocent UN workers was worse than the act of the shallow minded pastor burning the Koran. I was just wondering, doesn't Islam teach of forgiveness? I think the incident in Afganistan was more than...

Umbra75 What about not trying to be smart by shoving hypothetical questions at people who will more than likely never have to be in those situations, because it makes you sound like a child crying over not getting it's way. Just my two cents for that. The...

I saw a guitar retailed at 45 dollars. How's that possible? How do you think they cut costs? :O

Umbra75 Also, with the expensive guitars, you may be paying more for the brand name than the actual instrument. But, some of the names are well known because they make good quality pieces. It all really depends on what you're willing to spend, for what you need the...

I am sorry but I have a friend who is beginning to bug me! She keeps rescuing these animals, mostly cats. Yet she doesnt see that she must take extra care when you have a pet. Walking into her house is like walking into a cat box....

Umbra75 I hope it works. As long as you do it in a caring way, it should get through to her. Whether she takes the advice or not.... I smoke too, and I get the same thing. I can't smell it, but I've been told by others that they can. Really, though, all you have to...

Recently, Bob Barker and the collective animal activists managed to get a law passed that not only won't help the animals but will likely cause more deaths. They've passed a law in Los Angeles requiring everyone to spay/neuter...

Umbra75 Erm...try to forget that other place. I read further on the site, and it seems that they supported that law. So, I searched and found "Heaven On Earth - Society For Animals" instead. It's a no kill shelter in Van Nuys; and, at this time, they are only working...

Umbra75 I found this, but I'm not sure how much help it will be - but, I figure that if they themselves can't help, maybe they can point you in the right direction. This is for the "Furry Friends Rescue - Foster Home Network" in Northern California. They have pet...

I like to make my own music, i even record em, but i didn't write them into pieces. Usually if im in the mood, not doing anything, i will play my piano and try to make a song. Maybe short but i prefer to make slow music. My...

Umbra75 Actually, I did find that happening. So, now I'm concentrating on trying to make each song a different as possible (or, at least each group of songs), just so I can try to break the habit. Sometimes there are long pauses, but not an actual bridge, between...

Hi. Before too long all channels will be digital. Are you going to buy a new digital box when they are available or will you buy a new TV? I sent off for two coupons for the digital box but I am not really planning on using...

Umbra75 Appreciate the idea, but I've already tried it. That's how I found out that the lower outlet is for three-pronged things (grounded), but the outlet on top isn't (the builders of my apartment building weren't very keen on making things simple). The most I've...

I have always wanted to sing ever since I was a kid. I used to get complemented on my singing when I was younger. I have been in choirs nearly all my life and done singing workshops in different styles of music from gospel, to...

Umbra75 (I've made about five posts on mylot tonight, and each time I've forgotten something. Where's the ginseng when you need it?! lol) Sorry - I forgot to say two things. The first is that I'll be 33 in a few months, so we're only 7 years apart, if that's any...

Umbra75 Sorry. I forgot to say that my inspiration is usually just what I'm going through while I'm working on the piece. Though, if I really need help with my poetry, I'll listen to music - usually Jewel or Enya. Something deep and emotional, or musical and...

I am off-key, as in people did not appreciate my singing then especially when I was younger. Right now, at least I can do a lot better since some really took their time to train me how to sing. I also practice everytime I get the...

Umbra75 Sorry. In the second paragraph, I actually meant "listening", insted of "listing". I really need to double-check these things before I post them, lol.

I don't usually. Although, good cover art can be a temptation. I usually read for the author. The book I am reading right now is by an author that I like but, the cover art is really appealing. So, if I was unfamiliar with the...

Umbra75 I think I can stick them in the CD tray, so I'll see about emailing you a few. But, if he's going to spit on the book, then you might need some hand sanitizer, too. Afraid the CD tray's not big enough for that. Sorry. LOL.

Umbra75 Not having an hourglass figure just means you don't have to care about what time it is. In other words, stop worrying about it. There are so, so, SO many worse things that could be wrong with you, that aren't. Concentrate on starting to be thankful for...
