I heard this on the radio and found it very interesting to say the least. There is this talk radio show that from time to time I like to hear in the background. This one really caught my attention to say the least: In a day...

earthsong Wow if she hadn't even gotten a high school education how was she supposed to get into college? Not only is that added time, but makes the likelihood of her getting any kind of college certificate possible? It is pretty sad. I know I'd rather have my...

earthsong I do agree that it would probably only add additional burden in the long run, especially given the mother's age. I hate to keep pointing that out, but she'd be taking on the responsibility and stress of schooling on top of additional financial responsibility....

There are so many different appliances that we have in our houses today. Some of them I don't think that I would be able to live without and others I think I would do just fine to be without. So, what one household appliance do...

earthsong to me the microwave is one of those peripherals that I don't appreciate until its gone. I never realized how much we counted on the microwave until it broke. I would catch myself going to warm up a cup of coffee or something and seeing the space empty and...

I absolutely do not want any bashing here. I am seriously interested in this subject for several reasons. First, and the reason for my second reason, is my friend has recently converted to her fiance's religion so they can get...

earthsong I did do research online, but it wasn't as personal as I needed for the paper I was writing. I ended up with two women, one that was Muslim and one converting so she could get married, that let me interview them in my own area. I found out some amazing...

Its worth looking forward to a date you know you will enjoy. Having someone company gives a feeling of belonging. My ideal date is simple, I can enjoy watching movie, dinning in a restaurant or just walking in the beach. For me...

earthsong I find that commendable, no matter where you are from. I think you have the right idea. I don't see why you would want to be intimate in any way with someone you don't think might be worthy of more time and possibly a commitment. My oldest daughter is 18, she...

earthsong Beyond physical looks I tend to go by the way a person presents themselves or how they are dressed. Secondary would be initially how they speak. If you see a large woman in shabby dress (meaning mismatched clothing, stained/dirty etc) I tend to get a first...

My sister got married to a German guy 10 months ago. They have the sweetest relationship one could ever imagine. Maybe because they are still newly weds and the magic has not yet faded. But if you truly love each other,does the...

earthsong That's the problem when you finally acknowledge a problem. Usually things change for a little while and then you go back to the easy way. Unfortunately, its easy to sit back and let things slide, but it ends up taking its toll after a while. I had a friend who...

I'm starting to plan my Spring planting and wonder if anyone else is as weird as me about what they plant and when, the time of day they plant. What will you be planting? Do you can your veggies, or put up your hard earned...

earthsong I ran out of my frozen okra a few months back, and I still have a few packages of shredded zucchini and sun dried tomatoes. You must have one huge garden! I'd do a larger one, but between work and school I can hardly find the time to take care of what I do...

earthsong Corn is not the only food that affects the insulin, carrots and bananas do too. It just has so much natural sugar in it. My oldest daughter has a slight allergy to corn too, and its not something we eat in whole for a lot. If you want to really study, you'll...

earthsong I can be lazy too, but mostly I just want something a little different. My problem is I tend to find something we like, and then make it to death because it fits my criteria for healthy, cheap and good tasting. Then I'm back to square one for a while :)

earthsong Thanks for the reply. It wouldn't detect whether the meat was good or bad, just where the best cuts of meat (how to cut it) were.

earthsong I'd say my concern for my breath borders on paranoid. I carry mints and gum with me at all times, and brush at least twice a day, more if I have an appointment or something important.

earthsong In that case I change my opinion slightly. Do they tend to exclude you or harass you? When you behave more maturely than your peers it tends to cause problems. Not that they are your fault, not entirely, but you do seem to have a bit of ego, so maybe... In any...
