Amazing Race starts tonight

grammpaula @grammpaula (121) • United States 15 Feb 09

Who's going to watch? I haven't previewed to see who's going to be on the show this season. I like to see it from the beginning when the show starts. Have you previewed the racers? What does the season look like? Does anyone...

Season 14 Coming Soon!

Reesers @Reesers (1387) • United States 21 Jan 09

CBS doesn't have anything up on their site about the new season yet, but there are spoilers and bits of info floating around out there. So far it sounds interesting. There will be a first this season - one of the contestants is...

Was Aslan a white supremacist?

rosettaresearch Okay, this article is confusing White Supremacy and Christianity. Not all Christians believe the white race is supreme. However, many Christians believe in a Holy War against Islam (live in the desert, wear turbans, have a crescent symbol). The books were...

Keeping All Your Eggs In One Basket or Trying New Selling Avenues?

creationsbyrobin @creationsbyrobin (3071) • United States 1 Jan 09

So I had a pretty decent year selling on Etsy and I think Etsy will continue to grow in 2009. But I wonder if I'll be able to continue to keep my shop in the public's eye with all the new shops that will probably open up over the...

rosettaresearch I'm sticking with Etsy. But only because I don't have the time or inclination to manage two sites and promote them. Most of my Etsy promotion will be offline through word of mouth or charity donations. This is strictly, if I sell something, great, if not,...

Time for Brett Favre to hang it up!

brady2moss @brady2moss (700) • Singapore 30 Dec 08

I like the guy, but I have always thought he never should have "un-retire" and play for the Jets. After seeing his performance this season, I definitely think it's time for him to hung his cleats and shoulder pads up. He is a sure...

rosettaresearch He should have retired years ago. He has definitely stayed past him time. Unfortunately, he thinks he can still come back and play. He has no one close to him to tell him no. So, he will try again. The only thing that will stop him is the Jets cutting him and...

Superbowl predictions

ogreatone37 @ogreatone37 (3) • United States 17 Dec 08

What is your prediction for this 2009's superbowl champion.

4 responses

rosettaresearch This year has been insane. The teams everyone thought would go are backsliding. Even the Titans are looking incredibly beatable. So, hmm, the Steelers will go from the AFC and the NFC will send the Panthers. I think the Steelers take it. But, I could be...

The Five Best Christmas/Yule Songs Of All Time, In Your Opinion Are?

Darkwing @Darkwing (21583) 6 Dec 08

Being Pagan, of course I prefer Yule songs to Christmas ones, but I'm not averse to listening to Christmas ones. I think my favourite Yule song would be Jethro Tull's, 'Solstice Bells', which in fact, I was sent for Yule last...

top surprises and disappointments through week 14 in the nfl

johnnynfl @johnnynfl (87) • United States 3 Dec 08

Well,with 3/4 of the NFL season behind us,it seems again as if half the league is doing pretty much as expected and the rest have been either better or worse then expected. I have my own website and based on my preseason...

2 responses

rosettaresearch I would not have put the Patriots as the biggest disappointment. They looked creaky at the end of last year, so I thought making the playoffs would be tough. Then, Brady going down 8 minutes into the season definitely hurt the team. The fact they are doing as...

Was Barry Sanders The Best Ever?

elmiko @elmiko (6630) • United States 2 Dec 08

I was not that into football but I'm a bigger fan now and really just starting to be a fan. Someone who was a big football fan I use to know said he thought Barry Sanders was the best ever. Do you agree at least somewhat?

5 responses

rosettaresearch Nope. He only played 5 years. He is not even the top rusher in NFL history. They were others who had longer careers and contributed more to their team success. Now granted, Sanders played for the Lions so he could only do so much for the team. But, even people...

Dallas Spanks Seahawks

kdhartford @kdhartford (1151) • United States 27 Nov 08

My gosh were did that come from. I mean the Seahawks almost beat the Redskins. Dallas is on a roll and now the got ten days to rest and prepare for the Stealers...How bout them Boys?

6 responses

rosettaresearch The Seahawks are last in their division and have a really bad record. We were SUPPOSED to win that game. Losing Ware and Barber to injury might make this a very expensive win. But, hopefully, this is a positive trend for the Boys that will take us into the...

Cowboys Beat 49ers

kdhartford @kdhartford (1151) • United States 23 Nov 08

Oh yeah, the Cowboys beat the 49ers. It is a good day. The Cowboys just need to keep rolling in order to make it to the play-offs.

rosettaresearch I love the Cowboys, I really do. However, they let the screw up 49ers score 22. The Cowboys also had to kick a lot of field goals instead of getting into the end zone for touchdowns. These are not good signs. The Giants will still take the division, which...

Would you be willing to make the sacrifice?

silverglint @silverglint (2000) • Philippines 20 Nov 08

rosettaresearch I wouldn't be willing to go this far. If it becomes too hard to pay off your debt and you never have any fun, you start resenting putting all your money towards debt payoff. Then you find excuses to not do it. You have to reward yourself to keep you going. I...

rosettaresearch I have found just putting the words on paper helps. Whether it is "perfect" or not doesn't matter. Just put the words down, then go back and clean it up. You will find that once you start just writing, the words flow.
