American or British:What kind of English you speak?

sweetlady10 @sweetlady10 (3611) • United States 22 Jan 07

There are lots of differences between American English and British English, specially in pronounciation. But there is difference in words also. Like American says "gas" and the other says "petrol". Here in Mylot members are...

stacieinTexas Good point sissygrl. Actually I cannot distinguish between Canadian accents and northern midwestern US dialects. Some friends of ours are from Wisconsin and they use the term "pop" as well. First time I heard that I giggled (well I was a little girl). Down...

stacieinTexas LOL! I don't even know what a sardarji is, but those were good! They sound like blonde jokes. Would this be a good sardarji joke? Why did the sardarji stare really hard at the orange juice carton? Because it said "Concentrate"!

Any Dean Koontz fans here?

stacieinTexas @stacieinTexas (20) • United States 21 Jan 07

This is my favorite author. I have been on an obsessive Koontz streak lately. I read a wide variety of genres, or I really try to, but I just keep going back to Dean Koontz. Does anyone else love his books? If so, which are your...

monie2boys @monie2boys (176) • United States 21 Jan 07

My son is 8 years old. He just joined a swim team. He has been learning to swim since he was 4 or 5, but he just started competing in the fall. So far, he usually come in last or close to it. I feel bad for him. I know he really...

Would you try to have a baby?

monica1216 @monica1216 (509) • United States 17 Jan 07

What do you think of men or women who try to have a baby with their partner (wife, husband, girlfriend or boyfriend) even if their partner really doesn't want to have one??? Do you that's ever alright or justified?

stacieinTexas oh goodness, so much depends on the situation. I'd say sometimes yes it is justified, but most of the time, no it is not. But, I know a woman who did this more than once...with her first child because she couldn't stand it at home and wanted to get married and...

stacieinTexas I agree with you, sproutz. You are very lovable! I love you too. :) And you know what else? I love me, too. That should never have to be kept a secret. People should love themselves, and that is what is wrong with a lot of people...they have no sense of self...

Circumcision

sproutz @sproutz (260) • Canada 18 Jan 07

Do you think this is the right thing to do? Do you follow the old comments about cleanliness/std's ect ect? Would you be one of the parents to wait it out and lt the child decide @ a later age? or say yes/no right away?

stacieinTexas I got my son circumcised at birth for perhaps the wrong reasons...aesthetic ones. Plus, my husband was. It just seemed that almost every male of my generation had been circumcised. It just wasn't even a question for me. Then, later I realized that circumcision...

stacieinTexas Wow great question. I was born a night owl. It is in my genes I guess. So, given that I am a teacher, I have had to completely learn to reprogram my body. However, I do still struggle with going to bed at a decent hour, even when I am sleep deprived. Then when...

Cymbalta saved me

stacieinTexas @stacieinTexas (20) • United States 21 Jan 07

Well, maybe that is a little melodramatic to say, but my life was headed down the toilet until I switched to Cymbalta. I was put on Lexapro for Generalized Anxiety Disorder, first 10 mg/day then doubled to 20mg/day. At first that...

stacieinTexas What do you mean? That judgement was intended for me and me alone. How long have you been taking Cymbalta and what has been your experience with it? I know all people respond to medications differently. I have a friend who loves Wellbutrin but another had to...

Do you watch shows like Most haunted?

monica1216 @monica1216 (509) • United States 12 Jan 07

Do you watch all the "ghost" shows out there like Most Haunted? Do you believe any or all of it or do you think it's all just made up? My 10 year old son is convinced it's all 100% real and none of it's made up just for ratings....
