A different angle on things

Jekca @Jessicalynnt (50523) • Centralia, Missouri 28 Sep 15

Ever get stuck on something, like totally and utterly stuck. Sometimes what helps is backing up, and then approaching the problem from a different angle. This can be hard because you have been mired in whatever it was for so long,...

Always smiling I had that experience flying over Grand Canyon. It was a small plane and the flight was a bit turbulent . Looking at the Colorado River beneath and drowning there was what was in my mind at that point in time.

Books for the summer

foxontherails @foxontherails (236) • Japan 5 Aug 15

This summer, I've decided to loan out plenty of books from the uni library. I've decided to start with the classics, because I've been skimping out on reading and the uni library is the greatest cache of English literature I've...

Barbara Radisavlejvic @foxontherails It is on the current high school reading lists, but I graduated from high school the year it was published. When I was in high school, they did not assign contemporary novels for students to read, only short stories and poems from our textbooks,...

Just an Ordinary Owl? I am a dreadful hoarder. I think that I get it from my wartime upbringing, when we threw nothing away. Parcel string was always carefully and painstakingly untied and stored, wrapping paper was carefully smoothed out and used again, any paper with a blank back...

Do you finish every book you start?

Porcospino @Porcospino (31366) • Denmark 25 Aug 15

I visit my local libraries very often. There is a small library in my town, but I also visit some of the large libraries in my area. I borrow many types of books, and when I read fiction I don't finish every book that I start. I...

Porcospino I have heard about both books, but I have never read them. I borrow a lot of books at the library and it happens quite often that I have to return them before I get the chance to read all of them. I can't afford to buy all of the books that I want to read so I...

Kitty Cat Oddities

Hugo's pal @Hugospal (17) • Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 30 Aug 15

My older male black and white short hair saw a bug on the ceiling several nights ago. Ever since he's been stalking that area at dusk, chattering and trilling at the ceiling hoping more will come out so he can meow at them to jump...

Barbara Radisavlejvic I need to get back to books I've missed. I haven't actually read To Kill a Mockingbird -- just saw the movie. But I must read it, along with the sequel.

First Lucid Dream in quite some time

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 3 Aug 15

Maybe mylot's homecoming had something to do with it? Kidding. A lucid dream is where you know that you are asleep and dreaming but are able to manipulate the dreamscape. That is just one definition as I have read several others...

AmberLynn If you give yourself plenty of time before going to sleep so that you can relax in the bed and sort of meditate... It helps.

Mylot said I did not exist

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 21 Jul 15

why does ptc pay one tenth of a cent

Nnaemeka @mydanods (6513) • Nigeria 25 Oct 12

is ptc not really valued on the internet? I wonder why they pay one tenth of a cent i.e 0.001 for each task or offer? I have to click about one thousand sites in order to earn even one dollar! That is quite gigantic. It seems the...

tigershark Sometimes, I think that PTC sites are just selfish and greedy. This is a good example, because this proves that they aren't really thankful for their customers, the lifeblood of their website. You should stay at MyLot for a while and see how things turn out...

Everything in the world is biased... I think.

tigershark @tigershark (202) • United States 4 May 12

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary dictates the adjective "biased" as "exhibiting or characterized by [...] a settled and often prejudiced outlook to something". Assuming that this is the correct definition (or not... this is an...

megamatt We all see the world as we chose to see it and somethings the way we choose to see it, might be carefully omitting certain facts. There are a lot of things, in fact I would have to agree that all things could be biased. There is no completely true facts, there...

How do you cook your hotdog?

Cutie18f @Cutie18f (9546) • Philippines 5 May 12

I know that majority of us here fry hotdogs. I used to do this too until recently. One time I noticed a hotdog vendor boil the hotdogs first before frying them. I asked him why he had to boil them and he reasoned that hotdogs will...

Do you have a nap ?

Archaiwy @Archaiwy (599) • China 4 May 12

tigershark I don't always take naps, because sometimes it makes it hard for me to get the right amount of sleep at night. However, I do take some time to close my eyes during breaks, because staring at a computer screen the whole day isn't good for you. During these...

The Blue Danube and Space Scenes

tigershark @tigershark (202) • United States 5 May 12

What is it with the Blue Danube being played while showing stuff floating in space? I guess it's supposed to be some sort of tribute to 2001: A Space Odyssey. I heard that the scene is supposed to represent two waltz dancers...
