Has Anyone Ever Told You That You Look Like Someone Famous?

wachit14 @wachit14 (3595) • United States 15 Apr 07

Has anyone ever told you that you look like a celebrity? If so, were you flattered or insulted by the comparison. I've been told that I look like Reba McIntyre. I used to have red hair and I think that's where the biggest...

darthboard I was told that I looked like Dawson of the tv series Dawson's Creek. Perhaps because I have a the same jaw as he has and my hair is like his. I don't know about that tv series then. My friends would convince me to watch it. I did one time, and I was flattered...

darthboard It was hard for me before to type without looking at the keyboard. But since my work requires such skill, I took online lessons about typing. It helps you a lot when you learn the skills. You are typing fast, using all your fingers. However, there are times...

The Length of Life.

sukumar794 @sukumar794 (5040) • Thiruvananthapuram, India 20 Apr 07

It depends upon factors including the environment,prevalence of diseases and good food. Contented animals are known to have lived longer in captivity with all comforts than left free in the wild.

darthboard if you are talking about human life, i think it depends on one's persons lifestyle. the way one lives his/her life depends on one's life expectancy. well, if you are talking about animal life, then i agree with you.

How Many Hours of Sleep Do You Get Every Night?

wachit14 @wachit14 (3595) • United States 17 Apr 07

Do you get an adequate amount of sleep every night? Supposedly, we would be at our optimum health if we slept a total of ten hours a night, but who really sleeps that long? I'm lucky if I get six solid hours of sleep a night, but...

darthboard I don't sleep at night because I work during night. But I get about 5 to 6 hours of sleep during the day, which I think is not enough. What I found out, when you are so used at being awake at night, it's very hard to go to sleep during day time.

darthboard I was a school journalist and i liked it. Well, journalism is not always telling the truth. In my case, I don't expect people to tell me the truth, I look for it. And that is the hardest thing to do. That's where the challenge is. In your case, if you really...

darthboard Well, the question is, how long? ;) i think it's okay. The female specie will have enough time to know and learn all about the male breed. This will also show how "far" will a guy pursue a gal.

darthboard I've known people like this. Is it defense mechanism? Not wanting other people, even friends, to know that that person is going through rough times? I think it's not healthy. Somehow, one should have an outlet to release these emotions and not hide under the...
