tuxedoxpress O.K. Kiddo,Everytime anyone on myLot tells you he is insensitive, or to put your foot down, or to get away from him, you respond with excuses for him. It appears that you are not ready to face the reality that this is an abnormal situation OR to do anything...

tuxedoxpress I realize that what I'm about to say goes against the comments of everyone else, but accurate facts are important. Having worked as a pediatric nurse, I can tell you that if the baby is as fat as you say he is, she is not starving him. Every 4 hours is...

I can't get enough basil! How about you? Are you extreme over spices?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 15 Jun 08

What's your favorite spice that you love to use on everything? Tonight I put basil on my noodle dish until the entire thing looked as if it had been rained on by a basil parade. For me, one can never have too much...

tuxedoxpress I love 'em all but TARRAGON is the absolute best! Yum! That's probably why it's so expensive! Or the fact that it can't be grown from seed. Tarragon is good in meats, vegetables and even desserts! Yum!

The Duggar's are pregnant with baby number 18!

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 9 May 08

As some of you know the Duggar's are a US based family that are well known because of the number of kids they have. Number 18 is due in January. If this baby is born in December, it will share a birthday with 3 of its brothers...

tuxedoxpress Congratulations to the Duggars! They're doing a better job raising 18 kids than many people with 1,2, or 3. We have friends who raised 12 children in an LDS family and, consequently, raised 12 responsible, home & God-loving adults, who now have families of...

tuxedoxpress Actually, the Dairy Industry has done a superb job of making us think that their products are not only good for us, but necessary daily. Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! There are many other ways to get calcium into the diet that are much healthier than the hormone-laden...

Which Harry Potter actor has changed the most from 1st movie to 5th?

tthom64 @tthom64 (535) • United States 26 Apr 08

Other than the obvious change of actors for the Dumbledore character, which of the child actors do you think has changed the most as they've grown up? I think it might be actor playing Neville. Remember what he looked like in...

tuxedoxpress O.K. I just have to say it! Dumbledore changed the most! First he was Richard Harris, then he got a round face and a cheek wart. Of course, my second choice would definitely be Neville. He's showing his growth into manhood much more than the others. This is...

Eating less meat

Debs_place @Debs_place (10520) • United States 25 Apr 08

I work in a group home and almost 40% of the food budget goes for meat. They guys are all big eaters and they are big guys. Two of them are approaching 300 pounds. My manager has suggested that we buy less meat. I was...

tuxedoxpress I hate to go against the tide here, but humans DO NOT NEED meat in their diet. In fact, part of the reason there is so much heart disease and stroke in the USA is because of all the animal fat Americans consume. The Beef Industry has done an incredible...

Are vegetable based petfoods good for dogs?

MichaelJay @MichaelJay (1100) 21 Apr 08

I would like the opinion of dog ownrs on this one. Our dog is fed regularly on a muesli-type grain food which has some meat content. I must say she seems to thrive on it. She also enjoys vegetable scraps from our own meals if...

tuxedoxpress You need to check to see if there is any corn or corn meal in your dog food. That is the number one filler in dog foods and it is a giant rip-off. The manufacturer can count the ingredients as protein, yet corn is indigestible for dogs. (BTW, cats can digest...

Marg12 @Marg12 (329) • United States 20 Apr 08

tuxedoxpress All the women in my extended family mow our own lawns. The men do the heavy stuff, like hauling trash. The only exception is my son, who is single. He inherited his mother and grandmother's love of mowing. If I had my husband mow the lawn, he'd just hit the...

Do you allow your dog or cat sleep on your bed at night?

My pets are my life. They mean the world to me. There are a total of nine dogs living with me and my family in our 2 story house. Each individual one chooses which "human" they are going to sleep with at night. Most of the time I...

Could a red fox eat a small dog?

guss2000 @guss2000 (2232) • United States 16 Apr 08

We have a min-pin dog, which is very small. Well, we just moved and I've noted red foxes outside of our house in the early morning hours and late at night. I don't normally leave our dog outside unattended, but at times she may be...

tuxedoxpress NEVER leave your small dog unattended! If you are living in an area that is rural enough for foxes, then there are other predators around. Hawks (and owls at night) would be my biggest concern because they are not frightened away by human scent as coyotes...

tuxedoxpress I never have neighbors complain about my dogs at night because they all come inside to sleep. Not only does it prevent the "bark patrol" from setting up a neighborhood link, it keeps the dogs safe from dog thieves (dog fighters or people who sell animals to...

Does Your Dog Tie You down?

catjane @catjane (1036) • United States 14 Apr 08

It's weird all my life (I am 60 now) I had kids that kept me from travelling and tied me down, now that they are all grown, I have this dog. I will be over 70 by the time I can travel where I want to go. My husband doesn't like to...

tuxedoxpress I love my dogs with a passion, and no they don't tie me down. Try a pet sitter. Someone who can come in and feed and walk your dog, and yes, brush out the dog hairs. Frankly, there are some modern kennels that know how to keep a dog with separation anxiety...
