Have you ever had poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 25 May 10

I was trimming our lawn about a week ago and got a tiny scratch on my forearm. A couple days later it turned into a small oozing rash. Now it's a larger still oozing slightly, rash and hives. I think the medical tape I was using...

There is a debate about who left the Voicemail for Nick on Season 9 Episode 16 (the show with Taylor Swift in it). The voice sounds alot like William Peterson (Grissom), however, the actual message states that he (the message...

Just published my first article!

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 29 Jan 09

on Associated Content, that is. Ah well it's a start. I do get $1.00 upfront - woohoo just for publishing. Payments thereafter I guess are based on "performance" which means per thousand clicks. I don't expect much...

Ok, now I know for sure Horrorfest movies are total....

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 10 Nov 08

B.S. When we first started watching these (Horrorfest films - a.k.a. 8 films to die for. Films to die for), the previews and commercials all touted them as "too graphic or disturbing for the general public". That intriqued us...

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 11 Aug 08

The promos for these movies (After Dark Horrorfest, Films to Die For) make it sound like these films are sooo graphic, disturbing and violent. In fact they say that "they are deemed too graphic or disturbing for general...

Just saw the Golden Compass on DVD...let's discuss...again

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 8 Jul 08

I had already discussed the facts with my daughters when the movie was at the theaters. Since there was a big hullabaloo about how it's based on the series by an atheist who openly admits it is about killing God. I thought it best...

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 20 Jun 08

My 13 year old daughter has complained of stomach pains for a couple of years now. We've mentioned them to the doctors but no one seems to offer any help. I've tried having her eat yogurt every morning and it does seem to help...

What is your coolest wildlife encounter?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 7 May 08

There's a state park very close to us, as well as a conservation park. Once in a while we just take a drive just to see what we can see. One time on our way home we pulled up to an intersection and we saw a doe standing in the...

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 25 Mar 08

Ok, I've posted to at least 5 discussions today where instead of clicking "Skip" at the tags page I've just continued navigating through myLot. Apparently it still posts. Yay! I found it very annoying to have to...

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 14 Mar 08

Last night as I was draining the water from a can of tuna to make my daughter a tuna fish sandwich it occurred to me that we always buy tuna in water. Yet the stores always offer both Tuna in Water and Tuna in Oil. I...

Do you pick a best response?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 7 Mar 08

I feel a bit guilty in that I don't always pick a best response for discussions I start. I just hate having to decide who's response should be marked best, especially in when there's more than one that I think qualify. Plus...

Do the new keyboard drive you nuts?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 6 Mar 08

We got new computers at home. HP Pavilions, and the keyboard are a bit different from old HP keyboards. They are flatter, even the keys are flatter. That made it a little strange at first when typing felt like I was hitting all...

How many PTR or PTC sites do you belong to?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 5 Mar 08

I think I'm up to 6 now. And don't have more than 20 cents on any of them. I find these sites are rather time consuming and not very worth it. How about you?

LOL. How slow are you at typing your response?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 4 Mar 08

I'm at work, so I usually try to type my responses fast (my excuse for typos) but often have to switch screens if someone walks by. Sometimes I'll be responding to a discussion that only has 1 or 2 responses, but by the time I...

Does anyone do Data Entry online?

tinkerick @tinkerick (1257) • United States 24 Feb 08

I can type. I've been a touch-typist since I was five. Data Entry is a breeze for me. But when I look for work-at-home Data Entry opps, you have to pay on average $50 to join a membership database that would give you a list of...
