I was going to write something light this morning, but given what happened in Brussels Belgium, my muse has left me. Another terrorist attack. Islamic State has claimed responsibility. Thirty or so people dead so far. I hope...

I am not saying that knowledge is not power. It certainly IS power but not in all circumstances. The attacks that happened in Brussels, it's devastating. My Heart goes out to those who lost their lives, and for those who lost...

The whole world is watching the United States as they prepare for a Presidential Election next year. It has been interesting and insane at the same time. Everyone has an opinion and that is allowed so I am going to share...

The school was over by 12 PM that day. I had forgotten to inform my mother to pick me up by noon as usually my school ends by four. I was seven years old. My friends started leaving the campus one by one. By 2 Pm I was all alone...

Don't know why--maybe because I was on such a high yesterday (my Friends told I was 'nauseating' and to 'shut up'--all lovingly--about how great I was feeling and saw life) but I found the following blurb laugh out loud funny:...

Scindhia H @troyburns But not everything has an explanation. Do you really think everything can be rationalized?

Once upon a time, you could put a television antenna on your roof and watch television for free. Those days are gone. I know there are some people who still use an antenna, either on the roof, or inside the house. There are even...

We've been watching Naked and Afraid all day on Discovery Channel. It's very interesting to watch how they survive all kinds of challenges. I love to watch, file back what I see ... for a 'just in case I need it". Do you watch...

Gloria Faye Brown Bates One gets used to not really noticing the nudity ... it's interesting how they make fire, and shelter, and survive the harsh climate, and such. Yes, their bodies get eaten up by insects. Also, they get hurt sometimes... I hate to see that.

Do you find that a lot of Mylot users are not interacting so much anymore? I just wondered it they lost interest in Mylot or if they are too busy in real life? Have you noticed the same thing lately? There seems to be more new...

I always do and I keep an eye out for it too. It's great to find quarters but I also pick up dimes and nickels and even pennies. Pennies from heaven and all that jazz. The change I find is saved in a coffee can. When it gets full...

The phone rang last night and my husband answered it. After saying hello, he was quiet for a while then I heard him try to interrupt once. Shortly after he hung up. Apparently a 'single mum' had been speaking, asking him to vote...

ElizabethWallace I think people who use the pronoun "we" are able to get away with not watching TV. But for single people, it provides company sometimes.

When Ms The Horse and I moved from Iowa to California several years ago, we noticed it immediately. Strangers in the Bay Area make no eye-contact, and generally act as if they're slightly afraid of each other. Outwardly, it...

I've never lived in America and I'm never likely to, but I do love writing about the place. It's powerful and influential and just so darn interesting. I like to think of it as a soap opera with added mousetraps. New Zealand, on...

Janet Anderson @troyburns This has happened all over the world sadly. Why the reputation of the Church should be placed above the abuse of the children, just makes me furious. They are so hypocritical

Jabo @troyburns Thank you Robin. I can't understand how homelessness seems to be on the increase - we should be finding ways to cope with it.
