Am I wrong?

carol_m @carol_m (709) • Philippines 24 Oct 07

I had been supporting my youngest sister go through college, i.e., tuition fees, allowances, projects, room rentals, etc. Prior her enrollment last June, we made an agreement that I'll give what she wants on one condition -- no...

Nanette99 What a tough situation you are in. You obviously want what is best for your sister and think that this guy she is living with is not good for her. You care for her a lot and have been very generous which probably makes you feel very betrayed that she has moved...

Nanette99 The best gift I have received from my boyfriend, or anyone for that matter is my Boston Terrier puppy, Stella. I have always wanted a dog, especially a Boston, but refused to get one until I owned instead of rented. About a week after my boyfriend and I moved...

Motherhood a blessing and a curse

Perry2007 @Perry2007 (2229) • Philippines 19 Sep 07

The first discussion that took my attention is from someone who solicited opinion on whether Pregnancy and being a mother is essential to complete a woman. What can you say? Perhaps not, in my opinion. Although every woman...

What are some ways that you try to lower your energy bills?

gapeach65 @gapeach65 (805) • United States 19 Sep 07

We are always trying to lower our bills, gas and electric mostly, because they can be outrageous! We started only using our fireplace in the winter, it's got a gas starter, but we don't use the gas any more, we buy fire starters....

Nanette99 To cut down on our energy bill and help the environment, I wash my clothes in cold water and hang dry most things. I live in a condo so it is not easy, I have cleared out a good section of the front closet, lined the floor with plastic and dry a lot of my...

What do you like about 30 Rock?

PCJones @PCJones (9) • United States 18 Apr 07

I just noticed that only 34 people list 30 Rock as an interest, which seems pretty low in my opinion. Even if it's a new show, I love it and wish other people would enjoy it too. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will end up being...

Tipping a Server

bethyboo @bethyboo (399) • United States 16 Sep 07

I think some people don't completely understand how to tip a server. If a server provides good service at a restaurant, the standard tip is anywhere from 15 to 20% of the total of the check. I am a server and I work hard at my...

Nanette99 I have been a server as well so I will say my opinion from experience. I think it is wrong to expect a certain amount of tip. Everyday I went to work with this attitude: the restaurant gives me a measly paycheque for doing an adequate job. If I want tips, I...

Do you think a dog deserves a home cooked gourmet meal?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 16 Aug 07

Today I was watching a show about a woman who cooks homemade gourmet meals for all her dogs. And, I was wondering, do you think it's right to do such a thing? Dogs are just pets, right? And, I know they can seem human sometimes,...

Nanette99 I think our idea and their idea of gourmet can be very diferent. Most commercial petfoods are very poor quality and I would never feed that stuff to my dog. I will "cook my dog dinner" in weekly batches. I use all organic, healthy ingredients and I leave out...
