ankit2584 @ankit2584 (109) • India 26 Feb 07

Many a times we need to memorise things. i try to memorise them by reading constantly. but sometimes i succeed in retaining them and sometimes not. People say that if you constanlt write it down then you will memorise the things...

chadd_atl I've found that at times, I am able to retain things better if I write them down. I try to remember verses from the Bible, too, so I bought a small blank book and wrote down specific scriptures that spoke to me and it was much easier to remember them....

Charmed reruns

arcadian @arcadian (930) • United States 27 Feb 07

I didn't watch Charmed when it was new, and now I'm hooked on it in reruns. Mondays after I get home, I watch a mini marathon of Charmed shows. Does anybody else? I can't figure out why I like watching it. I like the house they...

chadd_atl I had never watched an episode of this show before but recently I spent a week in Cancun, Mexico, and all of the tv stations were (of course) in Spanish. One of the only channels in English was having a Charmed marathon and I watch an episode or two and it was...

chadd_atl I haven't referred anyone to MyLot yet because I don't know of anyone who has the time to invest in posting. It would be difficult to find the right people who would be interested in this kind of thing because they either don't have the time or they don't...

Is it disrespectful to just "drop in" on someone?

Carl Halling @CarlHalling (3617) • United Kingdom 26 Feb 07

Is it disrespectful to visit a friend/relation without announcing that you are coming? After all, you may be in the middle of eating, or taking a nap, or cleaning house, or worse! Many people are fine with unplanned visits; but...

chadd_atl Personally, I always try to call first, even if it's on a moment's notice and I appreciate it when people do that to me. However, I have had times when my cell phone was dead and I was in someone's area and wanted to drop by and I did so unannounced. Usually,...

Does your cat snore?

Bee1955 @Bee1955 (3882) • United States 26 Feb 07

My 8 yr old tomcat Tigger can wake you up when he gets into deep sleep and starts to snore! I thought dogs were bad! It's certainly not the size that causes this condition! How about yours?

chadd_atl I have a cat that's only a year and a half old and her purr is SO loud that I can't even have her on the bed with me at night. It's like sleeping with a tractor because her "motor" is so loud. Even when she's sleeping about 15 feet across the room on the sofa,...

What do you think of Katharine McPhee's new album?

glowsinthedark @glowsinthedark (189) • United States 2 Feb 07

I haven't heard much of it yet, but I like Better Off Alone. I just love her voice, she could sing the phone book and I would still listen :) I'm surprised the direction they went though, she really shines when she does something...

chadd_atl I really liked her on American Idol, but her new CD seems to have a target market of 22 year old girls who like to party. It doesn't seem like it's her style at all. I was kind of disappointed.

What do you think of schools requiring students to wear uniforms?

creed22 @creed22 (112) • United States 26 Feb 07

Would you rather send your kid to a school that had uniforms, or let the child express there creativity and send them to a school where they can wear what they would like. I understand having uniforms helps deter problems with...

chadd_atl I am completely opposed to uniforms in school. I believe that standards should be set for students in regard to what attire is acceptable for a school setting, but putting them all in the same clothes is nothing short of an attempted cloning and it completely...

Tomb of Jesus Christ?? Do You Believe or Disbelieve

whiteheather39 @whiteheather39 (24403) • United States 26 Feb 07

Is this a ploy for attention for the documentary, to cash in on the amount of attention which was given to "The DaVinci Code". There is talk about taking a DNA test. My question how could this be possible a DNA would have to be...

What are your thoughts on body piercings?

applsofgld @applsofgld (2506) • United States 25 Feb 07

I know a lot of young people today are into body piercings. I'm ok with the ears, one or 2 holes in each one, but not with holes going up the entire ear. I really cringe at the tongue, eyebrow, mouth piercings. I think the tiny...

chadd_atl I know it's just my opinion, but the new trend of "self-mutilation" is really sad. I don't mind anything done in moderation, such as ear piercings or such, but when you get to the place where one tattoo is not enough to you start putting any kind of metal...

chadd_atl It will probably only cost you to purchase a domain name, but that's all. Frontpage is out there pretty cheap now and it's VERY easy to use. You can get a free webspace at Geocities (among several other places). It's free because they post some small ads on...

Breastfeeding a four year old?

lillake @lillake (1630) • United States 25 Feb 07

Manners! Are they a thing of the past?

mipen2006 @mipen2006 (5528) • Australia 26 Feb 07
