In your experience, what dogs are good to have in an apartment? I am moving next month and we are thinking about getting a dog. The apartment is small (1 bedroom, 725 sq. feet) but we have a patio and a lot of grass in the back...

milliemocha I think that Yorkshire Terriers are good for apartments or a Dachshund, Papillon, Border Terrier... those size of dogs are not as small as the Yorkie but they are not too big that the space would be a problem. A lot of it does come to how you raise the dog -...

I think mine is a Doberman, it's said to be the smartest dog in the world, plus it looks very nice IMO. Don't think they are as mean as people give them credit for, they just need a strick hand.

It appears that these students decided it was too embarrassing to have a doctor look at their foreskin...understandable. So, instead of having the annual exam, the students forged the signature on the documents saying it was...

milliemocha I am glad that it is not just me who has not heard of that test either. They certainly don't do anything like that in the UK. I think it sounds: WRONG! It's an invasion of your privacy. I remember when I was at school and they gave us a medical you had to let...

Do you think a monkey (or gorilla) could learn to play a musical instrument? I think one could definitely be trained to, and I don't mean just giving it treats for banging on a drum or shaking a tambourine, I mean like playing...

milliemocha Haven't chimps been taught to play the piano? I am sure I have seen that somewhere. I don't see why they can't be taught to play certain instruments... perhaps just to learn certain melodies rather than to actually read and play music. I am really not sure...

rape scenes?The reason I ask this is because I started watching a movie on a satellite movie channel earlier at 8 p.m. About 10 minutes into the movie, there was a very violent scene during which a woman gets raped. It wasn't even...

milliemocha Glad it's not just me. I was shocked actually. I think that actors and actresses who participate in the making of such movies are questionable... I cannot imagine why anyone would think it was a good idea!

milliemocha I save up small change and use it to buy my drinks from the drink machine at work! It's good because then I do not really feel like I am "buying" them for some reason. Also my dad gives me his small change and I use this too - he can't be bothered to keep it...

milliemocha Personally I think it is wrong to be made to marry if you get pregnant by mistake - the reason I have this opinion is because I think it's unhealthy for a child to be brought up in a relationship where two people got married without really wanting to. It's...

milliemocha My pain is much worse in the damp, cold UK weather. I find that when I go to the desert in the Mid East, I feel so much better and I think this is because not only is it warm but it's also very dry. I also feel mentally and physically better when the sun is...

milliemocha My Yorkie is very spoilt - as are my parent's dogs and cat. She is spoilt the most really as she sleeps on my bed, gets carried when she wants, gets to sit on the couch, has clothes knitted, sewed and bought for her, gets the choice food because she is so...
