Your opinion on why some blacks are so in need.

STravers @STravers (4) • United States 12 Feb 07

Well my opinion on why blacks are so needy is the lack of motivation to learn.The lack of motivation to learn means there are high chances of a person dropping out.That person dropping out makes it so that they do not have a easy...

librarian Blacks network among themselves, so they learn what programs are avaiable and how to get in on each. Since they know how to sign up for them and have no problem doing it, who'd work for a living? And I think there are blacks working in a lot of government...

Trimming your cat's claws- pay for it, or do it yourself?

sylviekitty @sylviekitty (2083) • United States 11 Feb 07

I have only ever taken a cat in to a "pet salon" once, to get her claws trimmed. That was years ago, and it cost $5. Now days, I have no idea what most places charge, but it seems rediculous to pay for something that I can do...

librarian I don't know how correct it was, but I've used normal nail clipper to snip the very end of the claw. Boy, do cats HATE it when you mess with their paws.

emeraldisle @emeraldisle (13139) • United States 11 Feb 07

librarian They're usually pretty terrible but since folks know the characters and title, the movie execs think its an easy sell. Actually, the Addams family wasn't too bad. And the Sgt. Bilko movie was so bad I don't think it was ever in the theaters.

Do you go to the theaters or wait for the TV?

the_dreamer2005 @the_dreamer2005 (1175) • United States 1 Feb 07

There's so many movies that I wanted to see in theaters but just didn't have the money for it. Lately I've found that waiting for them to show on TV is easier. Anyone else do this or do you prefer the theater more?
