sanell @sanell (2112) • United States 13 Jul 08

lilibetha49 I have a Facebook account, and check it every 10 days or so. I'm not sure why, Facebook just never grabbed me the way it does some people. I prefer Facebook to myspace, which I never got hooked on. Maybe it's because I'm older (almost 59), but I prefer...

lilibetha49 I've never had a waterbed, and always had trouble getting out of a waterbed, probably because I never tried out one that was 80% waveless! I sleep on a regular mattress, but very firm for my bad back. Sorry I cannot help with where to buy sheets for a...

James72 @James72 (26790) • Australia 10 Jul 08
