grebsie Thanx for your input my friend, however, you did not seem to get what I meant by stating "I have a problem ON MY hands" (LOL) ... It meant, I have "a problem with THAT" --- to decide what instrument I like best to play. You didn't read properly what I had to...

grebsie Reading here about slow computer's performances, do you guys ever clean up history, temporary interest files and garbage bin? That slows up performance too. Just wondering. Furthermore, on dial-ups do not expect anything speedy.

grebsie You're absolutely right! We can't beat "the system." My metabolism is, and always been a big zero. However, here we are 'fighting' to look decent, cheating bloody gravity for being here LONGER than we can. That's the name of the game in my book. Luckily, I...

grebsie @ marie1960 - RE: It WAS more exciting (for me) to smoke pot in the 'old days'. Everybody's different. You got your high at the end of your day, 'cause it's part of your life, that's fine. However, even now, especially young people still find it very...

grebsie It's against the law in Canada to hang laundry in the open. You don't see clothes hanging outside or on balconies.People could be saving energy and money, but it looks unapealing.That's the law.
