jody451r I've been trying to earn money on line for several years now. While I've made some, I've certainly not reached a 'living' level so far. The PTR sites seem to be the most reliable. Auto surfing sites seem to exist only to take your money - I've lost...

coffeeshot @coffeeshot (3783) • Australia 17 Jul 07

Do you wear sunscreen everytime you go outside? What about on cloudy days? Do you wear a hat when you're outside? If i'm going out for a walk or to mow the lawn etc I'll wear sunscreen all over, even though I have olive skin. I'm...

jody451r I try to wear sunscreen whenever I'm going to be in the sun for more than a few minutes. My skin is extremely fair and my genetic predisposition makes me a prime candidate for skin cancer. I've had it removed from my face twice so far. Unfortunately, the last...

jody451r My favorite vacation spot as a child and still as an adult is our family cottage in the north woods of Wisconsin. I love it there. The scenery is beautiful and the air is clean. I've taken many of my friends there as an adult. I've also taken my nephews there....

jody451r You sound like an intelligent, practical person. My youngest sister did the same thing with her boys. The shirts didn't have to be expensive, just something that wasn't stained or looking worn. This was especially true if the meal included spaghetti or a...

Do you do your dishes in any specific order??

Stephanie5 @Stephanie5 (2946) • United States 3 Feb 07

I was taught to do my dishes like this, first the glasses, then the silverware, then plates, bowls, then pans. Well, I hate washing silverware, so I usually save that till last. So now I do them, glasses, plates, bowls, pans,...

jody451r I was taught to do dishes in the same order as you. I believe it was due to having to heat water for doing dishes originally. Now that hot running water is readily available it's not as much of an issue. Glasses and silverware were done before greasy items...

What do you think the church should do with priests who have molested?

ShadyGrove @ShadyGrove (996) • United States 27 Jan 07

I am Catholic and have seen several church's close in my area due to poor financial status -- I know that much money has been spent in "pay-offs" to families of children who have been molested by local priests. What do you...

jody451r I think the priests should face prosecution by the law. The Catholic church seems to have turned a blind eye to the problem for a long time; it is evident that the problem has existed and been ignored or covered up almost everywhere the church is. This...

Punishment for rape

prettypinkbug @prettypinkbug (437) • United States 27 Jan 07

What do you think is the correct punishment for a person who has raped someone? My husband and I don't see eye to eye on this one. What do you guys think? If I were raped, I would want to kill the guy. Should the rapist get the...

jody451r I don't think the death penalty is appropriate for rape. I think castration would be much more appropriate and would make it much more difficult for the perpetrator to repeat the crime. You could ask your husband how he would feel if he was raped and see if...

mango_tart55 @mango_tart55 (26) • Philippines 18 Jan 07

jody451r Gift cards are nice if you can actually use them. Being given a gift card to a specific store that you do not frequent is not much better than a gift you dislike. I don't receive many presents, but two this year were exavctly the same as last year and were...
