Did you do lots of silly things when you were a kid?

arkaf61 @arkaf61 (10881) • Canada 28 Feb 08

Being a kid is fun, although I think it used to be more fun when I was a kid LOL And the best part of it is that we sometimes were allowed to do something really silly and still have it discounted to the fact that we are kids. I...

amusedmonkey When I was a fifth grader I had a disagreement with religion teacher, and he gave me a bad mark for not agreeing with his views on some issue, so next day I brought a potatoe and stuffed it in the part of his car where smoke comes out (don't know what it's...

Are you living the kind of life you always have wanted?

dolce_vita78 @dolce_vita78 (8062) • Philippines 28 Feb 08

I am happy with my life. However, I believe that life could get better. Besides, I am still young and there are a lot of things that I would have yet to achieve. I believe that in God's time, things will be in place... How about...

If a Vegetarian Eats Vegetables, What Does a Humanitarian Eat?

cynicalandoutspoken @cynicalandoutspoken (4725) • United States 24 Feb 08

Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are...

amusedmonkey English being my third language I know EXACTLY what you're talking about! I remember as child I refused eating hot dogs when I learned the word at school! That brings me back to a very funny incident. We were studying tenses and the teacher wanted us to use...

Rosabranca @Rosabranca (44) • Portugal 23 Feb 08

I am trying to know how people react if they know extraterrestrial beings are real. Some say the world will be in panic like early 50's a radio broadcast program results.

amusedmonkey I would have mixed feelings! mostly of amazement and observation. I'd try to learn more about them, how they "think" (if they do think) their culture (if they have one) and simply how they survive! I'd be very scared if I do get an encounter, it's normal.....

My Death

Come forth now, o death that you, my assailant be put to shame. Your hands have no grip and your fangs shall never taste my blood. For from afar, you shall watch as streams of peace, perfect peace flow like rivers through my veins...

amusedmonkey There is no way I could prove (or disprove) extra terrestrial life, but if I would look at it statistically it's very possible! I don't believe in encounters though.. let me explain why. When you think about an issue scientifically you go through phases: 1....

amusedmonkey I like jesus, or at least the way jesus is portrayed today. I don't know how jesus originally was as I don't trust the things written about him, but I believe jesus as a figure is a great person.

Life- Determined by Fate or Free Will

Dmitriy @Dmitriy (71) • United States 20 Feb 08

This is a very abstract idea that I would like to share, are all of our lives determined by a higher being so that we just go through the motions or are our lives determined just by the actions we perform? Feel free to share your...

amusedmonkey I'd say both, but I won't call fate "fate" or say there is a higher power behind it. Some things are just out of our control, like where you are born and how you are raised (which have a great influence over our lives) but the rest is choices. You make the...

greatest miracle

amusedmonkey I think the greatest miracle is creation (or more accurately discovery) of music! the way humans conceive beauty and put sounds together to translate their emotions into tunes that convey your feelings better than words do. Although I deeply feel music.. but...

amusedmonkey It really depends on my mood, but I have always liked 70's good music, a good example is CAMEL . I'm not sure of the genre but you can really feel their music! symphonic, a little jazz influenced you can almost watch them grow and change with each album. and I...
