Trading cable for streaming services

beeeckie @beeeckie (802) • United States 14 Apr 12

I can't belive Bob Dylan is still making music. Do you like his new songs?

jeffjuggalo @jeffjuggalo (40) • United States 21 Dec 06

I heard this song on a classic rock station that was pretty good. When it was over the dj said it was bob dylan. He can carry a tune better than he used to but his music has always played a big part in the history of rock and...

blueskies @blueskies (1186) • United States 17 Jan 07

We are finally in a home of our own after years of renting. We've dealt with our share of dishonest landlords and inconsiderate neighbors over the years. We love our home because it's cozy and warm. We have neighbors very close...

I know I just dated myself, but, what the heck. Remember those great times we had. Sneeking everyone in the trunk and a car load for $1.50. Seeing two movies and a cartoon. Goodies to eat were so reasonable. And privacy with our...

Pay It Forward, have you watched the movie? What do you think about it?

ladygam @ladygam (562) • Philippines 25 Dec 06

I saw the movie last night on 23 (it's a local channel in my country). I would say I was really moved. The idea of spreading the goodness that has been done to you is pretty novel since the most common happening in our society is...
