How Did You Learn About Mylot?

J_Dawgs @J_Dawgs (217) • United States 26 Oct 07

Everyone had to learn about mylot somehow? How did you learn your way around? Who introduced you to it originally? Who helped you with things when you first joined? Was there anyone or did you just have to feel your way around?...

jts706 I heard about it on a money-making blog. I researched it since I am always paranoid about these types of things. It seemed like a great idea, so I joined. I really like it so far. I just figured it out as I went along.

After reading the whole book, do you still keep it?

braveheart07 @braveheart07 (2601) • Philippines 26 Oct 07

I have many books at home. Some were just given to me, others were being purchased from the book stores. I read books more often, trying to do some research as part of my profession. I have also some books that are not so...

jts706 I generally buy books at Goodwill for cheap prices, and after I read it, I rarely keep it. Sometimes I give it to a friend to read or back to Goodwill. I only keep the books that are my favorites, which aren't too many.

worldwise1 @worldwise1 (14885) • United States 26 Oct 07

I started reading a book yesterday that I had been eagerly looking forward to reading. It is in the category of a series that I started reading a few years ago. My problem is that with some books I become so engrossed that it is...

jts706 I have had this happen with the Harry Potter series actually. I know, perhaps I am a nerd, but they were hard for me to put down. I have also had it happen with a few other books, not too many though.

Have you ever been 'deeply hurt' by a close friend?

someonesmom @someonesmom (5761) • Canada 26 Oct 07

My week thus far, has been a mixture of 'the good and the bad.' While rejoicing in my 'pleasant surprises,' an incident took place between my daughter, and one of her 'dearest friends.' My daughter is sixteen, and has been in...

jts706 I must be one of the really lucky people so far. I haven't been deeply hurt by close friend that I can recall. Of course I have been hurt, but nothing extremely serious. I only have a few really close friends, so I guess that lowers my odds quite a bit.

pyewacket @pyewacket (43903) • United States 26 Oct 07

jts706 There are more and more of these popping up. They are an easy source of income. However, I don't see how anyone could have that cruelty in them to do it. Money powers evil though, so they will always be around. It's good to see some action being taken against...

jts706 It's definitely not worth the risk your children will encounter. I think you should go for a better neighborhood as son as possible or you may regret it. I know moving is a pain, but sometimes it has to be done.

jts706 I hardly ever eat out because I can't afford it nor to I really want to. I am content cooking. I used to work with a guy that ate out everyday for lunch, but he charged a bunch of stuff that he couldn't afford otherwise. It doesn't make sense to me, but it is...

Is it wrong to have women friends?

cobradene @cobradene (1171) • India 27 Oct 07

I'm a man, and I've been brought up in this conservative Indian society where people think it's wrong to have women friends. But it's so weird. Why can't women have men friends and vice-versa. All them time, people judge me...

jts706 That's perfectly normal. There is nothing wrong with men having women friends or women having men friends. I seem to have about equal quantities of both, and I have never had any comments or anything about it.

Cars

Amy @artemis432 (7474) • Abernathy, Texas 26 Oct 07

How many cars do you have and do you carpool? Many public transportation systems will provide information about other commuters going the same way as you. I'm wondering if those who don't walk to a close mall or store, share a...

jts706 I think laughter is a great way to feel better. It is good for getting your mind off things and just relaxing. Whenever I am feeling stressed or upset, a lot of times I just watch something funny and feel a little better.

Do You Ever Feel Sleep-Deprived?

worldwise1 @worldwise1 (14885) • United States 26 Oct 07

It has been a lifelong habit of mine to burn the candle at both ends. Consequently, I sometimes end up feeling sleep-deprived-which is not a good thing. This always throws my internal clock off, and it is not easy to reset it. So,...

jts706 I used to play electric guitar for a couple years and a little acoustic. I've always liked guitar music, but it is a lot of work to practice. It is a lot of fun, but it is very easy to get frustrated in my experience.

jts706 I wouldn't worry about it. A lot of people are miserable at their jobs and easily get irritable. I don't think it's really worth your time to bother with it. Some people just don't deal well with customers.

odd number of children against an even number

jts706 I think a lot of times in odd numbers two can pair up against one, but of course this isn't always the case. I have seen it a few times though. Age definitely plays a factor in it though in my experiences.
