dutchess67 I love Star Trek Voyager! It was, by FAR, my favorite of the Star Trek Series. I love the Episode where Kes came back in her old age to take vengeance on Captain Janeway and there are a lot of other episodes that I really love, but my favorite, without...

Have you heard this....Lookin at the feet of a woman, if her second toe is longer that her first toe...that woman normally bosses over her MAN......and if a you see the same in any man' s feet ...that is the second toe being...

dutchess67 I'm sure it's just an old wives' tale, but I do have to admit that I've heard that too, or rather, something similar. What I always heard what that a person who's second toe is longer tends to have a dominant personality. In my experience, conveniently...

dutchess67 The issue should be whether or not you trust her friend, but rather whether or not your trust her. If you do, then you have nothing to worry about.

dutchess67 You have to know, at this point, that it's in the nature of children to do this. Kids, will be kids and the good thing is, they will grow out of it. I would advise you to just learn to overlook it. Or perhaps you might want to sit them all down as a group and...

dutchess67 Actually, I don't think suing anyone over something like that is worth it. I think the solution to your problem is take an adult stance with your Mother and tell her flat out that she's not allowed to make decisions where your children are concerned and...

dutchess67 No, I haven't tried it, but I've always wanted to. I think that readership is probably down because of the advent of the internet. I know that I do a great deal of reading online, but almost never pick up magazines anymore. In fact, I honestly believe that, in...

dutchess67 YES, you are cheating and shame on you! You know perfectly well that you're in a relationship and part of that is knowing that you don't go out with other guys, even when he's out of town. Some people might try to justify what you've done and placate you by...

dutchess67 Well, my goodness, welcome back, Diss! It's been a while, but glad to see you've returned to the fray. I think tattooing and piercing are simply a matter of personal choice. I see nothing wrong with it, but I do see a lot of younger people taking it to...

dutchess67 I haven't actually chosen a favorite yet, but if I had to, it would probably be Jason Castro (the one with the dread locks that I would TOTALLY have a crush on if I were a teenager!!!). I like David Archuleta, but I don't think he's pop star material. He...

Would You Employ a Male Nanny?

Brian @wolfie34 (26771) • United Kingdom 14 Nov 06

Or 'Manny' as I believe they are called. I couldn't believe my ears when someone told me that their children were being looked after a 'male' nanny. Would you employ a nanny who was male, or do you think nannies should ALWAYS be...

What is the last thing you craved?

Jess @JJ4Ever (4693) • United States 21 Feb 08

What is the last thing you had a craving for? Why do you crave it? Do you crave it often? How many times a day do you crave it? How many times have you actually satisfied your craving? A craving can be anything, not just food!

dutchess67 Hi Jess! I just had an odd craving a couple of hours ago. I rarely crave much besides the usual chocolate, like so many other women. I don't generally indulge my cravings either. Today, however, I had the oddest yearning for peanut butter and honey. And yes,...

dutchess67 I love children's movies! They appeal to what is good and pure in us all and generally serve up an idealistic view of life. I recently saw "Meet the Robinson's" and "surf's up" and enjoyed them both very much.
