Do you turn off your computer at the end of your day?

momiecat @momiecat (997) • United States 1 Aug 09

I am wondering if it is okay to leave your computer on all the time? I am wondering what can "burn out" or "wear out" if you do so. Usually if I leave my computer on it will go into "screen saver" mode and I guess this protects...

cafn8me I always shut off our computers when we are done using them. Even in sleep mode, it wastes energy to keep computers running if they aren't in use. Also, I have been told that the computer's fan can wear out if it is constant use. I just don't see the need to...

bluesinjid @bluesinjid (658) • Canada 26 Jul 09

I'm sure you are all wondering why I'm saying this. 'Obama is the best thing that happened to the United States'! Well, I'm here to shatter your dreams, as this is one of the most interesting documentary of the 2009 year. It is an...

cafn8me I never believed that Obama could fulfill even 1/5 of what he promised in his campaign. I did not vote for him. If there were a way for him to be removed from the White House, I would welcome it. I see him as one who will serve to destroy some of the things...

Proof positive why Obama SHOULD NOT CLOSE Guantanamo Bay

coffeebreak @coffeebreak (17798) • United States 23 Jan 09

While Senators are saying "Not in My State" - http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1879257.aspx This appears to be proof positive that Obama SHOULD NOT CLOSE Guantanamo Bay !!!!! Good grief, what more evidence does this guy need...

cafn8me Well, I must first say that I am thrilled to hear someone mention Obama without going on and on about him being the truth, the light and the way. For heaven's sake, it's exhausting to watch all this hero worship. I COMPLETELY agree that Gitmo should not be...

cafn8me I have had great luck with Everyday Minerals and Bare Minerals. Both have great colors and coverage, but are good for your skin and don't cause breakouts or allergic reactions. I use their eyeshadows, blushes, mineral foundations and concealers. Bare Minerals...

Feel naked without make up?

bamakelly @bamakelly (5191) • United States 27 Jan 09

I usually wear make up. I apply it in the morning time and I don't like to leave the house for any reason without it on. I just feel self conscious and naked. I know that might sound strange but I think there...

cafn8me I feel much more comfortable with makeup on too! I won't leave the house without at least putting on something to even out my skintone and cover the darkness under my eyes (I'm VERY fair-skinned!) I guess that some might think that's vain, but I say that...

brian_s @brian_s (570) • United States 11 Jan 09

www.couchsurfing.com is a site that allows you to register to host people from all over the place, and also request that someone lets you stay at his/her house for a period of time. It is completely free, and I think that the...

cafn8me I have an acrylic overlay on my own nails to protect them from breaking. Also, nail polish adheres better to acrylic than to one's own natural nails, so having the overlay extends the life of my manicure. I have my nails done about every two weeks. This is my...

Are you still friends with you first best friend?

vanonas @vanonas (949) • United States 3 Jan 09

I am! We're not best friends like we were when we were really young, but we still try to keep in touch today. It's nice knowing you can be friends with someone for such a long time, don't you all agree?

sion316 @sion316 (228) 1 Jan 09

What was the last food that you ate ? Was it a meal or a snack ? do you have it often or was it just a treat over from the holidays? I had a roast dinner.

cafn8me The last thing I ate was a focaccia bagel with cream cheese for breakfast. I love bagels, and eat them fairly often. The focaccia bagel has Asiago cheese, rosemary and garlic...it's delicious!

cafn8me Yes, I have tried rugelach as well. They are delish! The in-store bakery in my local grocery store offers chocolate, cinnamon nut, and date nut. They are all delicious, especially with a nice, hot cup of coffee.
