Where is in the world..

hypermusician_bells @hypermusician_bells (106) 20 Sep 09

If you could travel anywhere in the world where would it be? and why? I would like to go to Alaska but I don't think I will ever get there as it costs to much to get to from the UK.

wakinsey I like getting up early when I can get enough sleep. I've learned that when I wake up depends on how much sunlight enters our room. my wife can sleep until 10:00am. My latest is 8:00am unless i'm sick.

wakinsey That's great! I love to see new businesses getting started. I started my emergency supply business in January 2008. Sales have been ok, but they are lower than expected. I'm thinking it is mostly due to the economy. I've been using the extra free time to add...

wakinsey Marriage is a good thing. Me and my wife have been married for 3 years. Both people have to want it and they have to work together to make it work. This means a lot of communication. If you can't communicate with who you're with, don't marry them. A lot of...

wakinsey I would wait on the banana. Some babies develop an allergy to bananas if it is given to them too early. My wife was like that and now she is allergic to them.

When order a pizza do you prefer to order online or by phone?

apples99 @apples99 (6556) • United States 31 May 09

I prefer to order my pizza by phone, becuse I just think the likelihood of a mistake being made on my order if I talk to a live person is much less, sometimes computers make mistakes and there might be a typo on my order if I...

wakinsey I hate to say this, but you can't stop him unless he makes up his mind to quit. I have an uncle who has been an alcholic all his life. We have tried everything, but he would not stop. Now he has cancer in his brain and will soon pass away. He never made up his...

Should children be given pocket money?

dhawanbm @dhawanbm (3705) • India 30 May 09

Children often demand pocket money so that they can use that for chocolates or candies and icecreams etc. I feel that the money may not go waste and they will adopt to laundering of money not properly utilise it. What do you say?

7 responses

wakinsey I will give my child an allowance. If there is something he wants he can buy it using his money. If what he wants costs more than what he has, he will have to work to make up the difference. This will include washing the car, helping to clean the yard, etc....
