starangel I think it's good for us to be aware of new diseases and what to do to prevent or cure it. I think the constant coverage of it is kind of extreme, but at the same time it tells us how fast it's spreading. I think that's what scares people the most...it's a new...

I have been a collector of books since around the age of 9 or 10 when my grandparents gave me my first 'real book' Heidi which I read a million times over the years. I have also moved a million times and after this last move...

rareability @rareability (129) • United States 3 May 09

Everyone is crying about the economy, tell me why families who reside in city shelters throughout the United States receive food stamps? The shelter provides each resident with three meals a day? So why food stamps? Paper food...

starangel Most shelters that I know of across the country, only provide shelter. But they are located where many places surrounding the building offer food. For example, CASS in Phoenix only lets you sleep there for the night. at a certain time in the morning, they're...

What do you cut back on?

katsmeow1213 @katsmeow1213 (28716) • United States 29 Apr 09

When I was younger "low fat" diets were all the rage. Everyone was all about cutting back the fat in order to lose weight, and of course counting calories. Then in my late teens the carb diet was introduced. My mother and I...

starangel The best diet for myself is not really a diet. It's more of a change in how I eat. I tend to eat more natural things like fruit, veggies, nuts, grains, etc. The fresher the better. The best thing that I have cut back on is processed foods, period. I haven't...

What should I do with my old VHS tapes?

miamilady @miamilady (4910) • United States 13 Apr 09

All my VCR's broke a while ago. I don't want to invest in a new one. I won't ever use these tapes again, but I hate just throwing them in the trash. Does Goodwill take vhs tapes? Do you have any other suggestions as to what I...

starangel You can get a vhs converter box. you hook it to your pc and make dvd copies off of each tape. It takes awhile, but it's worth it. Goodwill takes your tapes. you can sell a bunch at once on ebay, your local fleamarket(people will buy yours to resale at their...

Would you rather donate money to the church or to the poor?

versio9 @versio9 (329) • Philippines 13 Apr 09

I went out with my (catholic)friend of mine last week, and we visited the church. Inside the grounds there was this very poor woman with her child who obviously needed help and was begging for money, so I decided to give some to...

starangel I've worked with people like that. But they never really bothered me because of my attitude. I wasn't mean or anything, just that I didn't care. I was not there to make friends, I was there to work. So, the first thing is not to deal with her, but to change...

starangel I don't know why people think that. The antichrist is a government, not a person. Yes, there's a ruler over that government, but as a whole, it is a form of a government that is the antichrist. Revelation gives the characteristics of the government, and the...

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 10 Apr 09

starangel I love artichokes. I grew up on them. We lived in California and the artichokes were so big over there. I love the hearts. Those are the best parts. My favorite way is just to boil/Steam them and serve with lemon butter. I could eat 3 to 4 of them all by...

momathome @momathome (474) • Canada 9 Apr 09
