uniquenorthern @uniquenorthern (932) • United States 6 May 07

I give my dog a bath with a flea and tick shampoo that is supposed to help, but we have so many ticks out here that I am still constantly checking him and pulling ticks off of him. I don't want him to get hurt or get lyme disease...

uniquenorthern @uniquenorthern (932) • United States 1 May 07

emeraldisle @emeraldisle (13139) • United States 1 May 07

There have been many, many women in the James Bond's movies. They are all different and unique. Bond Women and the actress who play them have their own sense of style. Do you have a favorite Bond Woman? Either the actress or the...

emeraldisle @emeraldisle (13139) • United States 1 May 07

psychomom I agee with you. The number of terms our Senators and Congressmen should be limited. The Preident is limited to two terms. Should not those below him have at least the same limitation? This would stop abuse of power and ensure they did their job. So many of...

psychomom You aren't kidding. The amount of sugar alcohols in some foods is outrageous. No sugar added pies and cakes are the worst. After that I think "sugar free" jelly beans. How can jelly beans be sugar free? Simple answer, they use sugar alcohols. The same with...

paradise

adewaleayinla @adewaleayinla (17) • Nigeria 30 Apr 07

If truly there is life after death, the righteous will be addmited in the paradise. Then, why are people not willing to die? Can we say there are no good people in the world.

death

psychomom I don't think people are afraid of death. Mostly they are afraid of dying. The manner of how someone dies. The afterlife poses many questions. Depending on one's belief of "after death" is how one's fear can be influenced. If you believe that there is nothing...

psychomom I have seen the commercial and I agree it stinks. The woman is close to a nervous breakdown. I wouldn't go through that, let alone put my family through it. The husband doesn't seem to help either. "This time I think she's going to make it." Knowing the hell...
