Profound sadness

I have and have been discussing this for quite sometime now but I cannot do without discussing it again: Some songs make me good in a very, very sad sort of way. Like I was listening to this song played on an acoustic guitar,...

ircurts I can totally relate to this boyuancy. Just the other day I was listening to Clapton, one of my favorite songs is Bell Bottom Blues and it always seems to make me weep a little. Both sad and glad all at once. I often do this on purpose, the crying is a great...

mylot is so much better than PTC sites

marionne22 @marionne22 (27) • Philippines 27 Sep 11

ircurts I don't really get why people do PTC. I think PTC is just a really bad thing to do in the first place. When you click on those ads and wait 30 seconds so you earn a penny or even less, what value are you providing? The site's owner is charged a couple cents or...

Is there any work online for actual labor and not affiliate marketing?

samafayla33 @samafayla33 (1856) • United States 25 Sep 11
