Ink Cartridges

maildumpster @maildumpster (3815) • United States 26 Mar 07

So what do you do when your ink is empty? Do you chuck them and go buy new ones? Do you recycle or donate them to a cause? Do you trade them in to a store for some money off new ones? Or do you refill them? I personally refill...

lonarari I recycle mine as a fundraiser for my adoption. I also take everyone else's who do not refill them or anything. You'd be surprised how many people just toss them to me and then go get new ones:)

Online income

tator_tot8073 @tator_tot8073 (698) • United States 7 Mar 07

Have you ever sat down and figured out how much money you make online in a month? Well I have figured everything out and if I were to average everything I do online, I make about $100 a month. Who all do you make money with?...

lonarari I do payperpost and I make about $300 to $400 a month doing it. I've slacked off a ton so I could be making more. I'm looking into doing all the other paid things as well, but I just don't have time.

How old should a child be before he can get his own mobile phone?

TheKristoffersens @TheKristoffersens (200) • Denmark 8 Mar 07

A couple of years ago, I thought only adults should have mobile phones. When my niece got one from her mum at 12 years old, I also thought that was very early. But when her brother got one before he was 5 then it just did not make...

lonarari I think a child should not be allowed to have a cell phone until they are old enough to earn the money to pay for it. Now, does that mean they have to be 16? No. If a younger child can show the responsibility of earning money or saving money through allowance...

Why are "smokers" getting a bad rap?

w1z111 @w1z111 (985) • United States 7 Mar 07

It seems like the government hype and tobacco industry exposures and the resulting media floods have put "smokers" into a class all by themselves; and it doesn't look like a very pretty place to be. Seems like smokers are being...

lonarari I don't know if smokers should have any recourse from the industry at this point. You know that it is bad for you, so quit. I think the reason it's getting such a bad rap is because it is one of the few life choices that effects others besides you. If you...

Baking

coffeeshot @coffeeshot (3783) • Australia 7 Mar 07

Honestly, when was the last time you baked something, whether it be a cake or biscuits or something else? For me it was about a month ago, as my oven has been broken. I baked bran muffins which were quite tasty if I say so...

What do you think about the new Dove commercials?

estherlou @estherlou (5015) • United States 7 Mar 07

I get email notices from OneMillionMoms.com about what they feel are objectionable things on tv or in commercials. There is a new commercial for Dove products using older women totally nude to advertise that "beauty has no age...

$370 MILLION today, Do you play?

beaniefanatic13 @beaniefanatic13 (5076) • Grand Junction, Colorado 6 Mar 07

Okay I rarely buy lotto tickets as I know the odds of winning are next to impossible. I'm a fairly lucky person at times though and on occasion I do participate. Today is one of those times as our MEGA MILLIONS LOTTO is currently...

lonarari I sometimes play when it's really high. This time I did not. I heard this morning on the radio that someone won and the jackpot is now only a pathetic 12 million again. I guess I'll have to settle for that.

Have any of you adopted a child?

cassidy22 @cassidy22 (2974) • United States 6 Mar 07

My husband and I haven't started our family yet. I am very scared of giving birth, and have legitimate health concerns for feeling that way. He wants to have one of our own, and I am willing to give it a go. But we want 2 children...

lonarari Do not be scared of the time or the money aspect. I was. I was also approached about a foster to adopt situation. It's been three years and it isn't even near over. Don't go that route. It's hard. So hard that I can hardly handle it at times emotionally. But I...

lonarari I would. I am married, have one adopted daughter and hoping for another. The problem is the money aspect. I don't know how I'd afford an adoption single, but I'd make it happen somehow if I wanted it. I have a group of fundraising moms and I've seen singles...

Foster/adoptedchildren- how many is too much? Should there be a limit?

sylviekitty @sylviekitty (2083) • United States 10 Jan 07

lonarari It's not the best season ever. So far it's pretty boring. I only watch it because of how Ravu keeps almost winning something then someone does something stupid to blow it. That and my hate for Lisi grows every week with her cocky attitude.

jmcafam @jmcafam (2890) • United States 6 Mar 07

lonarari I hate it because by the time they come back I've forgotten stuff. Although some of them do a recap show, but still. What happened to just having one break a year like the good old days? I wonder if this means more shows per year for us to enjoy?
