Do You Believe In Telepathy? Have You Ever Experienced It?

M Cheung @Beestring (14563) • Hong Kong 19 Sep 22

I believe in telepathy and I have experienced it. Years ago, when I was still working. One day, didn't know why when I got up in the morning, I just didn't feel like going to work. I took the day off. My mood was low and I tried...

I don't cook a big meal every day. Sometimes we just sandwiches or something light for supper. This evening I decided to surprise my husband with a good homecooked meal when he came home. I got everything cooked and he called on...

Brenda It's so nice that both of you were thinking of each other... What do fried green tomatoes taste like? For the longest time I never knew they were a thing other than a movie title ??

What spices do you have in your cabinet? How do you use them? I did not grow up using spices, so I only have salt, pepper, bay leaves, cinnamon, cloves, turmeric, and I always have fresh ginger in the refrigerator. I like hot...

Denise @petatonicsca (7070) • Japan 8 Sep 22

Next Day Food Posts

Jim Bauer @porwest (91088) • United States 12 Sep 22

@LindaOHio does it right when it comes to "what I had for dinner" posts, and I am taking a cue from her. A lot of the time when I post what I had I post pictures of raw food. What if I post the post about what I ate the day...

Brenda The Internet makes it way too easy to try to pretend to be something you're not. Unfortunately, it's always been this way and I don't foresee it changing.

Do you have a DVR? If so did it change how you watch tv?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 7 Feb 10

I never thought DVR would change my viewing habits as much as it had. The combination of recording shows without having the right tape in and programming the nasty VCR with being able to pause, rewind, skip commercials when you...

Brenda I've never had a DVR and heck, we don't even have cable TV anymore. I honestly thought I'd miss it but Hulu is really all I need. You can watch more shows this way and for less money. You may want to give that a try before investing in a new DVR.

Do You Write Your Middle Name or Middle Initial?

Rainegurl @Rainegurl (2156) • Philippines 6 May 09

I always make sure that when I write my name, especially in legal documents, I also write my middle initial. It seems to me that if I do not write it, my name looks incomplete. I feel the same when I see other people's name...

Brenda It's just my daughter and I here at home so I rarely if ever close the bathroom door, nor does she. I don't know why but it's just the way we are. Maybe it's because our bathroom is so small or something. However, like you said, whenever I go out I definitely...
