silver245 Hi raiyandhaka. Yes, I sing in the bathroom, and the kitchen, and the living room, etc. lol I live by myself and in a house, not an apartment, so I really don't think anyone can hear me. I usually have music on when I'm doing things around the house, including...

silver245 Hi babykeka. I've found that one of the easiest ways to find movie's I'd like on Netflix is to type in the name of a movie I know I like in the search box. When it brings up that movie there are descriptions of the type or genre of movie it is. When you click...

This Book Changed My Life

TomAustin @TomAustin (18) • United States 12 Sep 09

When I was a kid, I saw the Ralph Bakshi animated adaptation of "The Hobbit." It was so fun, so exciting and melancholy at the same time. That prompted me to read the book. I loved it even more than the movie. If they had only...

silver245 Hi Tom. I first read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings about 36 years ago. I can't say that it has affected my life in the way it did yours, as far as leading to a relationship that started with a discussion of the books, which I think is great! But I would...

Were the police right to shoot the homeowner with the gun?

wlee9696 @wlee9696 (595) • United States 8 Oct 09

In the headlines today. A man broke into a home with the family still there. The husband grabbed his gun and subdued the thief - he held the man at gun point while his family got out safely. He was talking to 911 while holding the...

silver245 From the information you've told I'd say that the police were wrong for shooting him. If the wife had told them her husband was the one with the gun, and he identified himself as the homeowner, I can't think of any reason why they should have shot him. I know...

silver245 Hi kanukrishna. I usually don't notice mistakes in movies unless it's really obvious. I think I pay more attention to the story than if there's any mistakes. My favorite movie is Moulin Rouge, and I've watched it so many times that I have noticed several...

silver245 Hi leahsmom. If the main problem is house training.. getting her to not go to the bathroom inside the house... the best way to train them is crate training. Get a dog crate that is big enough for her to lay down in, but not so big that she can do her business...

silver245 Hi subhadra. Yes, I do talk to myself a lot when I'm alone. lol I don't know for sure why I do it. Sometimes I think it's because for 14 years I had a dog that followed me anywhere I went in the house and a lot of times I talked to him. He's been gone almost 2...

What Is The Devil's Music?

dhart87 @dhart87 (53) • United States 21 Sep 09

The reason why I asked this question because I like to listen to hip-hop, pop, and r&b music and when I am around older people or church-going people they said that it is the devil's music and I am going to hell. But, I thought...

silver245 Hi dhart! As someone else said, I remember when the rock music I listened to in the 70's was called the devil's music, mostly by older people. I think it's mainly because sometimes they can't understand that music styles change quickly, and if it's a type of...

silver245 Hi ShortyAkbar! I personally appreciate someone holding a door open for me, and always have. It's true that some girls or women would interpret it as a man thinking the girl is weak, but I think it's just polite. There's a busy convenience store that I go to...
