What is your favorite thing to find in your stocking?

astromama @astromama (1221) • United States 13 Dec 07

I'm looking for ideas for stocking stuffers. We don't have a lot of money for gifts this year but I at least want to give out stocking stuffers. I'll probably do the usual candy/fruit for my family, and I always do lotto tickets...

When you are traveling....

kykidd @kykidd (6812) • United States 13 Dec 07

When you are traveling do you take snacks or soft drinks with you? If I am traveling by car I usually take at least a 12 pack of my favorite soft drink and probably even some bottled water. It is a lot less expensive than paying...

Backpack30 I'm very new to eBay, so I'm probably not the one to answer, but I also put something up for sale and it didn't sell either and I lost a little $..... I just put it back up for auction and it sold the 2nd time around....... Good luck with yours!

Do you like buds or complete bloomed Roses?

eshaan @eshaan (6188) • India 18 Jul 07

Backpack30 That's a unique description of the rose in it's stages-I love that ;) I personally love them when they are just blooming....not a bud, yet not a bloom either. It makes them look as though they still have so much life in them and aren't near wilting....

Why is healthy food so expensive?

vonsmom1994 @vonsmom1994 (94) • United States 11 Jul 07

I was just reading a blog where someone mentioned that organic and healthy food is way more expensive than fast food. I want so badly to start eating organic in hopes to clean out my system, lose weight and possibly beat the...

Backpack30 You're right, it is a bit expensive to eat organic and healthier. I think the reason it's more expensive because it's harder to come by. I think you're right also, we should rally together to insist on a better diet for the world.

What is Love???

lovedude @lovedude (4447) • India 11 Jul 07

Is it Physical Attraction or Feelings or Purely Business or Timepass or Gamble??

3 responses

Backpack30 I think that love is putting someone before yourself and thinking about their feelings before you even think of yours. Love is unconditional and forgiving, especially when it's nearly impossible to do so ;)

Your Ideal partner, does height matter when it comes to who you date?

Nic @academic2 (7000) • Uganda 10 Jul 07

Many folks are very particular about who they date-sometimes even when the beauty/handsomeness is so sparkling, if the height factor is missing, the relationship does not mature to full bloom. my brother is a really tall man, but...

Backpack30 It does matter to me. I'm 5'7" and I've never dated any guy shorter than me. I've always loved a tall height in a man. My husband is 6'4", nice and tall! I have no doubt that his height played a factor in my initial interest in him ;)
