Do You Donate to a Charity?

ChrisRock619 @ChrisRock619 (1040) • United States 21 May 07

Do you have a charity or Non-Profit Organization that you donate to? If so what is it? Do you just donate when you can, or always on the same time (for example every month). I'm currently looking into a few charities that interest...

bhbirdie6 That's a pretty funny story. I must say, I didn't know they had bars of dog soap. I've always seen it come in bottles. Interesting.

Once when I was a very small kid, playing by a small creek with mom watching me, I just happened to scream just like kids do when they play. My aunt´s dog heard the scream and came running as fast as he could to see what was...

bhbirdie6 I'm single, so I handle all of my own finances. Well mostly, the one thing I don't do is my tax return. I have a professional do that. How are you supposed to understand all the nonsense they spew out at you right around tax time?

man or women? which would you rather have run your country?

telyhi @telyhi (27) • United States 30 Oct 06

i think the u.s. needs to have a women as president. the men have had their chance and i'm not sure the decisions made have been of benefit for the people.

1 response

bhbirdie6 I quite agree. I think a woman might be able to lead the country in a better direction. With more compassion and maternal firmness. Many people tend to think of compassion and strength as being two mutually exclusive things but I think women are exemplary...

Have you seen Pulp Fiction?

ethnicbarbie @ethnicbarbie (389) • United States 8 Dec 06

I have. Many a time. :]One of the best movies ever made. Quentin T. is a true genius. If you haven't ever sat down and truly analyzed the movie and the meanings in the movie.. I recommend taking the time to. A very...

bhbirdie6 I've seen it but I wasn't that impressed. I haven't really liked any of his movies. I don't think he's that talented. He just puts a lot of blood and gore in his movies and it seems that people think that's genius. I don't really get it. But this is just a...

bhbirdie6 I'm going home for the holidays. Can't wait to get back. But there never seems to be enough time for shopping. I think perhaps my favorite thing ever is hot apple cider. Oh it's so yummy.

bhbirdie6 Thank you! I hate spammers, scammers, and cheaters. It's annoying what people won't do for a buck or too. I'm so glad they're enforcing the rules and encouraging others to do so as well.

Whats your favorite kind of tea?

nichjake @nichjake (523) • United States 14 Nov 06

My favorite is Tazo's Awake tea. I pretty much love any kind of black tea.

bhbirdie6 I love green tea and peppermint tea. Green tea has actually been proven to speed up your metabolism and if you need to wake up, peppermint tea is just the thing. It's so refreshing. It's very helpful and probably better for you than coffee.

Downloading music.... Do you really think it hurt any company?

sirensanssmile @sirensanssmile (3764) • Netherlands 31 Oct 06

I do not believe that it has really hurt the music industry really. I think they got all upset by the idea, but then realized that they could never admit that it DIDN'T hurt their sales so they continued to whine about it. I think...

bhbirdie6 I could not care less about the music industry and downloading. It's interesting that as soon as the government makes a law, that determines whats right or wrong. I don't think that's necessarily true. I don't think downloading music is wrong and I do think...

Genes blamed for depression

sirensanssmile @sirensanssmile (3764) • Netherlands 7 Nov 06

Scientists find that a gene variant linked with mental illness is also linked with enlargement of a brain region that handles negative emotions. Researchers found the region of the brain called the pulvinar is larger and...

bhbirdie6 I wonder at what point genes are going to be blamed for everything. I certainly do think depression is hereditary but I don't think everything is. I definitely think that environment has a lot to do with the way you respond to things. If your parents were...

bhbirdie6 I'm definitely not having children. In my opinion you really limit yourself when you have children. You aren't able to pursue your interests anymore because your life revolves around them. I also fear the age old adage that I will become my mother. I will not...

bhbirdie6 I don't think you can really have a good online relationship with someone. Think about why they're online. Most likely they are trying to hide something. It could be some personality defect... or the fact that they're married. I stay away.

Any advice for selling on ebay?

I was going to start selling my sons old clothes on ebay, any advice for me before I get started? How do you know what to charge for shipping? I was thinking of starting the price at $1.00 per item, too high? Too low?

bhbirdie6 I'm still trying to figure out the selling on ebay thing myself. Ebay has so many fees! A fee for this, a fee for that. They're raking in the money! Geez, I wish I had thought of Ebay.
