Capital punishment

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 27 Jun 08

Why do some many people from the USA think capital punishment is a good idea? I'll never understand why so-called Christian folk think it's right for the state to kill a person.

Does anyone else there love schnauzers like I do?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 22 Jun 08

I've got two adult schnauzer now, and 8 baby schnauzers. I just love watching the babies - they are seven weeks old today, and they are so cute! I've bred lots of litters of schnauzers, but it's been a couple of years since the...

Do you think of the beast when you eat the meat?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 26 May 08

Do the omnivores out there ever think of the creature they are tucking into when they're sitting at the table? I try to, but most of the time it's just food, and gets swallowed mindlessly. I was at a bonfire night last weekend,...

you always get the government you deserve

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 20 May 08

Do you believe this to be true? If it is, I suspect some of you have been naughty, naughty people in America. What could you possible have done to deserve the President currently with his finger on the button in the U.S. of...

Some people refuse happiness.

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 19 May 08

It is easy to whinge and moan about the pesky things in life. It's too hot, too cold, too wet, too dry. Nobody likes me, everyone else gets better things than me. Does this sound familiar to you? Do you live with, work live...

Do spelling errors drive you nuts?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 15 May 08

I've been seeing the word 'loose' used incorrectly on this website for a while now, and I've commented on it once. Am I just being anal, or am I right to want people to spell 'lose', as in lose weight, correctly. Whenever I read...

What's the most yummerlicious take-away fast food in your opinion?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 13 May 08

I love KFC, but I only eat it rarely. It costs money I can't afford to spend, and I'm very conscious of keeping at my ideal weight. How about you? What do you love to chow down on when you've got the cash for it and you want...

A new word I've invented

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 12 May 08

I love words, that's one of the reasons I love to write. The past couple of days, I've finally been brave enough to put my newest new word into print. I've used the word on several occasions on the Mylot website, and I'm...

certain word not allowed

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 25 Apr 08

I feel that in the 'Dogs' discussion section, we should be able to use a certain word. When answering questions or discussing female dogs, there is a word which is/should be entirely OK to use. The word should be allowed - it is...

what makes you happy in life?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 17 Apr 08

The songs will tell you that money can't buy you love, but it sure will buy you lots of things. Will it buy you happiness though, that's the question? I know how unhappy you can be when you don't have enough money to keep the...

My favourite breed of dog

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 1 Apr 08

I've stated elsewhere here what my favourite dog breed is. Now I'll tell everyone some reasons why I love them so much. They are clever - clever like a fox or a cat, not clever like a golden retriever. A Pharaoh Hound usually...

new poetry form

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 31 Mar 08

Hi, I've been writing poetry for many years now - my first poem that got me praise, was written in 1977 when I was about 14 years old. I was supposed to be writing something for a History project, and I wrote a little poem on the...

what should I weigh?

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 27 Jan 08

I'm nearly 45 years old, a mother, married, and for most of my life I toyed with various weight loss diets. I'd lose a bit, gain more, lose it again. But most of all,I was getting teed off with the process. Then I read more...

the magic of unicorns

jakesmum @jakesmum (154) • Australia 19 Nov 07

Unicorns are a magical, mythical promise of beauty to come. They have their place in religion, in pop music and in my heart. I dream of the day I'll see a unicorn for real.
