twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 8 Nov 07

Have you ever watched Roseanne? Did you like it or hate it? Do you think they did a good job on the subjects of the show? Which Becky did you like better? I watched this show for a long time. I really liked it...I guess mostly...

circuscat I really did like that show in the first few seasons. It dealt with a lot of issues that most families have to deal with. However after they won the "lottery" the series lost it for me. I was happy they won it since the family needed a break but it felt...

sjohnson628 @sjohnson628 (3197) • United States 7 Nov 07

I have never gotten the flu shot in all my life. Now my place of employment is offering to us for free. I tossed the thought over and over in my head as to whether I want to get it or not. I heard it will make you sick then I...

circuscat Well there are many strains of the flu virus out there. So you may even get the flu even if you get the flu shot. I doubt the flu shot would make you sick.

How much do you need for retirement?

janisvg18 @janisvg18 (181) • Singapore 7 Nov 07

circuscat It not fair how the cost of living just keeps going up. Here I think you need about 500,000 to live by the time you retire by 65. Assuming you have your own house and car. My husband and I haven't nearly enouhg in our account as we hoped. But we're still...

questions about JEANS...

singlepixel @singlepixel (2743) 6 Nov 07

circuscat I think I wash my jeans like twice a week. Though if one starts to funk up I wear the other pair. As for old jeans I wear them till holes appear in unusal places. So I guess I have no choice but to throw them away, use them as rags or gardening gear.

What do you think the future of MySpace is?

groove789 @groove789 (48) • United States 7 Nov 07

I have been a member of MySpace since November of 2005. I have gone through the phase of gathering up friends like germs, and I have since lost that desire. I use the site to talk to friends, keep up with people I don't see very...

circuscat I actually think this is the end for myspace. It's just not keeping the crowd as much as it use to. I've used myspace but found it annoying. I men the songs that play as soon as you click on a friends site? That was just plain annoying. I also didn't like...

My daughter is a first grader, and she has been being harrassed at school. A few weeks ago two boys pushed her down on the playground and rubbed her face in the dirt. The school gave the kids a 10 minute time out from recess. Two...
