michelyn I'm lucky in that I have a great relationship with my MIL. I'm actually closer to her than I am to my own mother. My MIL would and has done more for my husband and I than my own mother would. Sad, but true...

michelyn Any of this trilogy would have to be mine. I have the entire box set and I've seen each of them so many times, I've lost count. Every time I watch one of these movies again, I find some minute point or idea that is hinted at that I haven't noticed before....

snoopy88 @snoopy88 (452) • Australia 8 Jul 08

I started this topic because the computer that I always use does not sit in my room resulting in no privacy to whatever I'm doing. My parents is quite strict at that time, they wanted to see what me and my brothers are up to on...

michelyn A loveseat is a smaller couch that normally sits two comfortably. I think they call them many different things now, but I've grown up with them being called loveseats (because of the two people).

michelyn There are exceptions of course. When it comes to being in a hospital with a child or spouse, that is totally different. It's a necessity to be on the phone at that point. Had I described the specific scenario I was talking about, you would have understood that...

gitfiddleplayer @gitfiddleplayer (10362) • United States 4 Jul 08

There are so many weird flavor combinations out today, I had to move "Pickled Pigs Feet" and "Sea Salt" bags aside just to get a regular bag of Doritos so I could dip them in Picante Sauce. I cannot get into these new flavors. Do...

michelyn I still live in Florida and luckily, I can still obtain the normal flavors. At least for now. It will be a sad day when I can no longer get my Cool Ranch Doritos. I already eat less of them than I did before since they aren't a very healthy snack, but to not...

Do you always get a soft drink with your fast food order?

gitfiddleplayer @gitfiddleplayer (10362) • United States 1 Jul 08

Or do you mix it up and get lemonade, or tea, or gasp, water to drink. I always get a soft drink, every now and then I'll get lemonade. Check your cavities and then get back to me.

Introducing my new avatar,

novataylor @novataylor (6570) • United States 15 Apr 08

don't you think it's fitting for me? I think it's quite appropos. It appears naughty, but it's really not at all. It's in your face, but not as much as some I might have chosen. I really like it. And I want to publically thank...

CopyPaper @CopyPaper (228) • Philippines 18 Apr 07

michelyn The 800mm telephoto lens is so sweet and I definitely want it, but that's a hefty price tag: $12,000.00! I would need to change my career to photography with an income before I could justify paying a price like that for an accessory. Maybe later on down the...
