Are you an optimist? If so, please tell me your secret, your philosophy, etc.

snivelbec @snivelbec (135) • United States 9 Apr 09

I'm, obviously, not an optimist. I'm not a pessimist though - more like a pragmatist/realist. But the economic picture for my family (as with many, many others) has taken a serious downturn in the last four months or so and I find...

Are You A Good Liar??

snivelbec @snivelbec (135) • United States 13 Oct 08

I can pull off a very small white lie as long as there's some kind of truth involved which I can focus on. Not saying I'm the world's most honest person (far from that), but when I lie, maybe the person I'm speaking to can't tell,...

Yes, I know this isn't exactly an 'antiques' category but I'm hoping someone with interest in older things will know anyway. I bought a couple of old Scripto Vu lighters for my brother's birthday (the type that have, say, a...

What is a Lampwork Bead? How Do You Tell?

snivelbec @snivelbec (135) • United States 8 Jul 08

This isn't a beading question - it's more like a bead question. I have a necklace I need to describe - I know the beads are silver foil backed. I know that each bead is slightly different than its brothers, and I know that I can...

Do You Find Making Money On Line Sort of Addicting??

snivelbec @snivelbec (135) • United States 16 Jan 08
