Are you the same mylotter you were 6 months ago?

kbourgerie @kbourgerie (8780) • United States 30 May 08

I recently posted a "rant" in which I said "if you don't like me, remove me". One of my friends commented that 6 months ago, I wouldn't have said that. It got me to thinking that she was probably right and that I have developed a...

smilekeith Wow, six months ago I was probably far more active in myLot, then I decided to step away. It became too much work for me, and I was working on some issues. Then I kept running into people that were strictly for the money. BS topic after BS topic. I am not sure...

Do you ever have the time to read the BIBLE?..

raijin @raijin (10345) • Philippines 4 Mar 07

What do you do with it? Do you apply what the teachings told you to do so? I do read it, especially the new testament, because I can understand more what is written on the old testament. As Jesus said, "Do not think that I have...

smilekeith I have time to read the bible. But, I don't. I read the bible from time to time, looking for a good quote or and inspirational phrase in Acts, Psalms or Proverbs, even Matthews. Other that, I don't think the bible is worth spending time on.

It seems like everytime I go to use my flashlight it never works. Either something is wrong with the bulb, the on and off switch or the batteries. I've tried expensive ones and I've tried cheap ones from the dollar store with...

smilekeith Hell, if they gave you a flashlight that worked, you wouldn't have had to bring it back. They know that. I heard a guy on the radio mention that a trick to saving batteries on a flashlight is to turn the top battery upside down. That keeps it from draining...

smilekeith This has been covered, but I am sure that if the father truly isn't concerned, he won't spend much time contesting it. However, if the father isn't as active in the child's life as he would like because your friend has made it difficult, then that would be a...
