duskborne I don't believe romance is dead, only that our idea of romance is changing. The concept of romance that we held for so long was actually a by-product of the Middle Ages. In part, women's lib may have changed things, but not that much. I think most women still...

duskborne As with most countries in the world, you should anticipate that they will speak their own language, and not yours. This is natural, in fact, I'm sort of surprised you were expecting it to be otherwise. This should in no way deter you from visiting them. Many...

duskborne My dream house would be on elevated terrain, perhaps on a cliffside overlooking the sea, or in the mountains on a lake. Somewhere temperate with warm summers and lots of snow in the winter so I can use a fireplace, maybe two, one in the living room, one in the...

What type of Laptop should I get?

Socialism @Socialism (20) • Canada 20 Jun 08

I'm planning to buy a laptop sometime in October. I'm open to any advice and recommendations on laptops. I dislike Dell, so please don't try and encourage me to buy one. I'm currently looking and some HP laptops. Oh, and my...

duskborne I guess I'd recommend HP or possibly Sony Vaio? I've had a Toshiba and that conked out after a year. Now I have a no-name brand that packed in a lot of bang for the buck, but it's been plagued with other problems so I wouldn't recommend going that route. If...

My Xbox 360 Red Ringed!

eXxodus @eXxodus (204) • United States 20 Jun 08

Hello MyLotters! I have owned an Xbox 360 for almost two years, and the other day it began to freeze while I was in game. Three days ago, I began to play, and it froze, like it had before. This time, when I tried to restart it,...

duskborne Microsoft's stubborn unwillingness or inability to fix the red ring problem is what is keeping me from buying a 360. On multiple occasions I've really considered it, only to later back off because I expect that, at the price I'm paying, that I should get a...

duskborne I recently upgraded from a 5mp to a 10mp camera myself, but only because my 5pm was starting to die on me. Realistically, if you print your picture smaller than 8x10, or just share re-sized versions of them on the internet with friends, you will probably won't...

duskborne I totally support having cute or fancy underthings. I'm so bored of bland! I love having a variety of undies for every occasion. Even if no one sees them, it's still fun to know what under your power suit, you have panties with cupcakes on them. It lets you...

duskborne Cats are very intelligent and have fantastic memories, however there is a key factor that separates them from displaying what we see as "obvious" intelligence in dogs. Cats are independent, and do as they please. They don't have the drive to please their...

2 responses

duskborne I don't think it's healthy for you guys to watch so much tv! I know it often becomes the staple of entertainment, particularly as people get older, but in many ways it's like drinking soda, sure, it's tasty, but it offers no nutritional value, and you rarely...

duskborne Lobster is tasty indeed! But I admit to being a little freaked out when it's served to me entirely in the shell, with its little beady eyes staring back at me accusingly. For the most part, I skip it, but Red Lobster is doing some sort of grilled Maine lobster...

duskborne Choosing a major can definitely be difficult, but in the long run I think it's more important to pick something you enjoy, as long as it has real-world value so you don't waste years of schooling for naught. Going in thinking purely "What will make me loads of...
