Hi everyone!

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 3 Oct 15

I haven't been here for a while. I see that Mylot says it was "rebooted" in 2105. I also see a dollar amount under my name. Does that mean we're earning money now?

Weren't we supposed to get paid anything we earned over $5

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 12 May 13

I had almost $8 here and I thought they were going to pay us for anything over $5 on the 10th. Anyone else get their money? Update: I got the money yesterday. Hope everyone got theirs, too.

I find the issue of possibly resurrecting extinct animals entirely fascinating and wrote an article about it on Yahoo Voices. While I really would love to have these animals still be alive as God made them, I would love to see...

Anyone want to read my Squidoo posts?

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 5 May 13

I guess it's OK to post links now, so I wanted to see if anyone wanted to look at any of my Squdioo posts. I've been there almost as long as I've been on Mylot. I mostly write about nature like I do with many other sites, but...

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 6 Jun 11

I know that in Great Britain and Canada the cost of gas is much higher than in the United States. Also, I think there are more car taxes, too, but I'm not sure. I've heard a lot of stories of people spending up to 30% of their...

Do you eat fish with the heads still on?

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 4 Jan 09

At some of the stores I shop, they have the whole fish minus the scales and guts. I don't mind that the heads and eyes are still on. Do you eat fish like that, or do you prefer it already filleted?

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 13 Oct 08

I've seen other sites sell items with their logo on it to raise money for payouts. Do you think Mylot should do the same thing?

Has anyone ever heard of anyone winning the $50,000 at Inbox Dollars? Or, for that matter, any other survey site or other kind of site where you get entries to win a larger sum. I think My Survey posts the winners, but does Inbox...
