A Walker County, GA grandmother left her 13-month-old grandson in her running vehicle while she went to visit friends. The baby was asleep so she didn't want to disturb him. Instead, she left the car running with the heat...

gaylesglimpses People have shut off their brains. I'd also like to know why one of the friends she was visiting didn't go open that door. Several adults failed this baby, not just one.

Can girls look good without makeup in your opinion?

Aayesha Wasif Saleheen @wasif123ster (92) 1 Dec 15

The answer is yes, yes they can, they actually have a better appearance than the makeup face. My wife only wears makeup when she really needs to, like if shes going to a wedding or a party. Otherwise she just stays natural. My...

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 19 Nov 15

gaylesglimpses It may have interfered with the absorption of the lethal injection, and opened up a potential lawsuit there. Also officials might also be concerned that some would be stolen before getting to death row.

gaylesglimpses I work every weekend and never get to enjoy them. Making a list helps me get everything done through the week that I used to do on weekends. It's nice to cross each item off and see the progress.

gaylesglimpses I have a head injury and forget things frequently. It helps to have a specific place to put everything. I also label cabinets and doors. Friends laugh, but it works for me. :)

gaylesglimpses It's a blessing to have good strong backs to help when moving. Unpacking takes days, but at least it's better than moving heavy things like beds. I am glad that you were able to get help.

gaylesglimpses I have long suspected that oil excavation could be an issue. If you put water in a balloon and pop it the water goes everywhere. To me, it's logical that removing oil from underground would have a similar effect.

gaylesglimpses Like +Cahaya I also don't watch the show. We don't have television so unless it can be downloaded, I skip a lot of programs. That's not a bad thing. It means that I can read your Walking Dead Posts without worrying about spoilers.

gaylesglimpses I have bought a few things over the past year. Mostly some t-shirts and tops. Nothing expensive. My husband and I just laugh it off when we see ourselves in multiple photos, but with the same outfit.

Keeping Dangerous Animals As Pets

purplealabaster @purplealabaster (22091) • United States 3 Jul 12

This seems to be quite a problem recently, and it sounds like it is just getting worse. People keep poisonous snakes, spiders, lizards, large cats (like cougars, for example), bears and other animals not normally thought of as...
