lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 21 Mar 07

Wife: Is it time? Husband: Time for? Wife: It's the end of the month already... Husband: What about? C'mon old girl, speak clearly! Wife: Well, have you paid the utilities bill or do we have to light candles again?!! And...

caper111 You are probably going to think I am weird, but I love getting them. I just love the feeling of having a bill paid. I don't know why. It is not like I have a lot of money or anything. My husband and I are trying to pay off our cards, and every month I can't...

Is it RUDE not to have an AVATAR?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 19 Mar 07

I have been here for a few weeks, and have done a fair amount of clicking here and there. I find it strange that there is a good number of people who do not have avatars. Or more correctly, they are using the default green...

Will you HARM someone to SAVE your own skin?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 10 Mar 07

Alright folks, I hereby swear that the dream I am going to relate is a very real one. It happened some nights ago but I can still remember clearly what happened. I was in an enclosed room and behind me was a heavy metal door -...

caper111 It is hard to say, I don't think I could ever purposely hurt someone to save myself, but I think it would depend on the situation. If it was something like your dream I would probably open the door. Not that I would want to hurt anyone else, just because I am...

Are you a channel surfer or a single-track viewer?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 15 Mar 07

What are we discussing this time? Announcing... the ubiquitous TELEVISION! If I could bold this word and make it jump at you like an inflated balloon, I would. :P Nowadays, there is a television in pretty much every house. Not...

caper111 I am a channel surfer. My husband always gets mad at me but I can't help it. He doesn't understand how I can watch two shows at the same time. I hate commercials, they drive me crazy so I will watch a show until a commercial comes on and then I switch it to...

Do you spend some quiet time alone everyday?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 13 Mar 07

One moment you are scrubbing the floor, the next you are washing the dishes. One moment you are meeting a client, the next you are stuck in a meeting. One moment you are getting ready for work, the next you are preparing to...

caper111 I have to. I am a housewife with two kids and if I didn't take some time to myself I would probably go crazy. I usually have some time in the night after bedtime, but if I am having a really stressful day with the kids I put myself in a timeout. Sometimes moms...

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 23 Mar 07

Before you jump to the reply screen and hurriedly type out a reply, I need to caution that this is a trick discussion. Well, nothing as scammy as losing your password, but it's just that if you have your eye on either a virtual...

What kind of things does Easter Bunny leave for your "kids"?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 23 Mar 07

Now that my kids are teens Easter Bunny leaves slightly pricier items in their baskets, resorting to one or two main items with a few surrounding goodies to munch on. I never was overly big on a ton of candy in their baskets...

caper111 My oldest daughter is not a big chocolate eater so I usually get one bunny and like you I get spring toys. It just seems like a good way to say goodbye to winter. And every year I get them a track suit.

sweetlady10 @sweetlady10 (3611) • United States 31 Jan 07

caper111 Yes I think kids should help out around the house. My daughter is 5 and she helps me out. She loves helping out when I am cleaning, it makes her feel important, I think. The only thing I have to fight with her over is her room. Would someone explain to me how...

Illegal to smoke if you have kids

iamiramadnama @iamiramadnama (421) • Canada 30 Jan 07

I'm Canadian, and they're trying to pass a law that will fine you or have you sent to jail if you have kids and you smoke in your house or your car (basically, anywhere your kids are). What do you think of this? Do you think it...

caper111 I hope it works. I have nothing against smokers, I was one until a few weeks ago. I smoked for 13 years. But I have never smoked in my home after I had children. I think in a way it is a form of child abuse to smoke around your child. Everybody knows the...

caper111 yes it is true, A cold is a viral infection and is not cured by medicine. The medicine relieves some symptoms but does not get rid of the cold. When my kids are sick I usually don't give them any medication unless they have a fever.
