I watched The Night Listener with the bf the other day. (Ever seen it? It's a great movie.) Anyway, I was checking out the special features and there's a part about the story behind the story. The author of the book that inspired...

shadowremnant @shadowremnant (81) • United States 22 Feb 07

Have you ever worked customer service at a retail store or in a call center? It sucks hardcore. I work in a call center at the moment and the people that call in are so rude and ignorant that it makes me grind my teeth. I mean,...

gammygirl People are rude. Someplace along the time manners stopped being taught by parents and people think if they scream loud enough they will get what they want. Oh for a time when people knew how to treat their co-inhabitants of this planet.

Candle Scent Poll!

shadowremnant @shadowremnant (81) • United States 1 Mar 07

Okay, I'm going to request promotional candles inspired by the cover art of one of my ebooks. I'm having a hard time deciding what scent to use. The candle itself is going to be orange and black, twirled up the entire length of...

gammygirl I've seen the cover and it is exotic but I'm not sure the peach, strawberry and melon sounds that good. Actually I think I would go with Rain. The tiger makes me think of a steamy, rain forest.

Where do squirrels poop?

NYSheDevil @NYSheDevil (25) • United States 18 Feb 07

Think about it. Have you ever seen a squirrel poop? I've probably seen thousands of squirrels in my lifetime and it just occurred to me as I watched a couple chase each other through the trees that I've never seen one poop. I know...

gammygirl Maybe squirrels are very shy and hide someplace when they poop, you know, a squirrels bathroom. Or may be they poop on the run and it's so small that you just don't notice it.

Wereturtle? What?

shadowremnant @shadowremnant (81) • United States 26 Feb 07

I was reading online today that different cultures have different myths about lycanthropes. In the US we have the werewolf and, in my hometown in WV, we have mothman, a half-man, half-winged insect creature. What types of...

Blind, deaf or mute?

shadowremnant @shadowremnant (81) • United States 22 Feb 07

The other day a friend asked me "Blind, deaf or mute--what disability would you be able to live with?" After I got over the shock of such a harsh question, I got to thinking. What would be the one to cause me the least trouble?...

2 responses

gammygirl I agree with you. My fear is fire. I can't imagine not hearing a smoke alarm going off or being able to see to get out of a burning building. If I'm mute and I need to scream for help, I wouldn't beable to but I could find something to make noise with.

How do you feel about Soda machines in schools?

ashleypastor @ashleypastor (173) • United States 25 Feb 07

gammygirl We are becoming a nation of obese people. Instead of pop or soda machines, they should have juice machines. And I don't mean the kind that are full of sugar.

By far the one of the top three funniest shows ever on television!

NYSheDevil @NYSheDevil (25) • United States 13 Feb 07

Fox ruined a great show by messing with it's schedule; it was on one week, off for three, back on for two. G4 picked it up at the end of last year and I look forward to it's 11:30 showing every night. Way to go G4! One of the...
