mkcd1973 @mkcd1973 (28) • United States 3 Oct 07

I have tried everything that I can possibly think of to give my dog relief from his itchy skin. He scratches so much that he has sores on his back and his skin near the top of his tail is bright pink (working really hard on being...

ZimaMcHotpants Are you sure it's fleas? Because if it is, they should be manageable. Invest in a flea comb (essentially the same comb they use to check for headlice). If you swipe it along your dog's spine or shoulders, if he has fleas there will either be dark black specks...

Smoking ban on America's Next Top Model

vivasuzi @vivasuzi (4127) • United States 3 Oct 07

So this season, Tyra stepped up to the plate for young girls and is forcing her contestants to be role models as they are meant to be. Models were told after the first photo shoot that they will not be allowed to smoke on camera....

ZimaMcHotpants It is every much the show's right to ban them from smoking, on or off camera. The girls have an amazing opportunity at their fingertips, and if they are willing to give it up to get a puff, then so be it. It just weeds out the ones who don't really want it. It...

ZimaMcHotpants Actually, preschool/kindergarden is the perfect and ideal time to teach kids when it is an isn't appropriate to talk. Your daughter's teacher is trying to teach her a valuable lesson for when she reaches first grade, when she will be expected to be quiet and...

ZimaMcHotpants The horse looks lovely - I love musical freestyle best, out of all of the subtypes of dressage. The breeds of horses involved, the dedication, the years of training, the skill of the riders...you can't fake being fantastic in dressage, unlike many of the other...

Good Season Premiere

stealthy @stealthy (8181) • United States 25 Sep 07

Bones had a good solid season premiere. A skull in the windshield to start things rolling and set in motion what is probably a season long returning theme of the secret cannibal society. Zack returning was really not a suprise,...

ZimaMcHotpants I bet there will be more to Zack's return than just him not fitting in. When asked about it, he refused to talk about it, and went straight to work after looking extremely unhappy. I have a feeling something happened that will come up later on.

Aussies2007 @Aussies2007 (5336) • Australia 27 Sep 07

ZimaMcHotpants Global climate change is an extremely serious problem. It has already affected us so much. Storms like Hurricane Katrina will soon become commonplace, when for the US it was a suprise before. The USA ignores the ever-increasing instance of natural disasters...

ZimaMcHotpants I'm enjoying the change of scenery but I feel like they are basically returning to the same 2 concepts AGAIN: breaking out of prison, then being on the run once broken out. They spent an entire season on the first idea, another season on the second, now it...

How Do You Decide What To Read Next...?

biwasaki @biwasaki (1745) • United States 1 Oct 07

When you have more than one book sitting in your "to-be-read" pile, how do you decide which one to read next? Do you read the one you really want to read, or do you save that one for last?

ZimaMcHotpants I read whatever I'm in the mood for next. If I feel shallow or ADD or I just want some entertaining stories, it's chick lit for me. If I am feeling studious or academic, I have nonfiction books about animals, psychology, and biology I can pick up. I don't...

Do you have a favourite place to go for a ride? I love riding out on our farm, or going on a nice long trail ride. I much prefer it to going to an arena or anything like that. I find that boring. I could ride all day if i had...

Do you wear fake eyelashes?

megumiart @megumiart (3771) • United States 20 Sep 07

I love wearing fake lashes rather than putting on mascara. It takes some practice to put them on corectly, but they're much easier to take off. Do you wear them?

ZimaMcHotpants Yeah, thats not a fantasy. That's your dog being thrilled to be out of the house and outside where dogs belong. When I say belong, I don't mean dogs should be outdoor pets, I mean that all animals were built to live outside in nature. Your dog is just happy to...

ZimaMcHotpants neutered males are hormonally predisposed to be calmer than spayed females. Females of most species tend to have minds of their own, with fixed males being much more subservient. It is all a matter of preference. If you like an animal with personality, females...
