gfike01 Hello Yes, too many vitamins/minerals can be bad for you. Our bodies can only use so much of them. Some vitamins get stored in the body and some get depleted daily. Ones like vitamin c can cause diarrhea, itching, headaches etc... when too much is in the...

rameshkumaar57 @rameshkumaar57 (5908) • India 11 Jan 10

Whenever I read some discussions on coffee or tea, I usually find that people in US and Europe prefer their coffee with cream and never with milk. Whereas in India we never add cream, and it is alway only milk.Even though I have...

milk

gfike01 I think over here in the U.S, we use cream because it lightens the coffee and thickens it some. Personally, I've used: Milk, cream, half and half (half cream and half milk), powder creamer and liquid creamer. They all taste the same to me except for the...

gfike01 It all depends on how things ended. If there were trust issues and a lot of hurt involved, I seriously doubt a healthy friendship could be maintained. I'm speaking from experience. My ex cheated on me multiple times. While I still have feelings for her, it...

Intel or AMD?

Prado712 @Prado712 (48) • Brazil 17 Nov 09

computer

gfike01 I prefer AMD. I like the price and the performance. People seem to use AMD for overclocking. I just like AMD because I can put a computer system together that runs what i want it to for cheaper than if i went with intel.

Is 2012 the end of the world? What is your guys opinion on that. And how confident are you that this will happen?

2 responses

gfike01 I don't think 2012 will be the end of the world. There is just too much info missing to support it. I do think though that in the next few years, a lot of bad things will happen. You can see a lot of hot spots popping up all over the world, things are getting...

Loyal or Faithful?

eurekafemme @eurekafemme (5876) • Philippines 9 Nov 09

gfike01 If it came down to having to choose, it would have to be faithful. My soon to be ex-wife stood by me but was never faithful. it hurts a lot more to have your significant other shacking up with other people than not always being there for you.
