to a discussion you strongly disagree with? I recently did respond to one that I was apprehensive about commenting on and I'm glad I did. It was something I felt very strongly about and it helped me realize the real reason I...

wandale I think that one of the neatest things about making comments online is that it is more comfortable to raise a differing opinion in a virtual setting than it might be if you encountered a group of strangers having the discussion face-to-face. That's why I try...

How often do you wash your keyboard!

CoffeeAnyone @CoffeeAnyone (3210) • Canada 5 Jun 07

It has been a huge amount of time since I have washed my pc keyboard. Ok so I admit it I have not washed it since I bought the thing. It is two years old. I was sitting here this morning thinking about all those tv shows they say...

wandale I have never washed my keyboard with a liquid, but I do have one trick that I do on a regular basis, usually about once a month. I take a strip of tape, usually just clear Scotch brand tape, from the dispenser on my desk, then I run the strip between the keys...

Which David Byrne or Talking Heads album is your favourite & why?

newbloom @newbloom (13) 28 Dec 06

which David Byrneor Talking Heads album is your favourite and why?

1 response

wandale I think that my favorite is probably David Byrne's self-titled album. Even though some of the way the songs are arranged and produced sounds a little bit dated now, I think that it has some of his best songwriting on it. My favorite Byrne/Talking Heads works...

Common things in cartoons:

jbl1975 @jbl1975 (374) • United States 11 Nov 06

This is something I have often thought about since I am a fan of cartoons. What are some common things you will see in a cartoon? My examples are the following: Any time there is an accident involving a character and a piano,...

wandale Whenever a character gets burned to death, like by a laser gun, his or her body will turn into a pile of ashes, but somehow the eyes always survive the heat! I can think of a bunch of looney tunes especially where there are piles of ashes with blinking eyes,...

wandale I think that many of the best characters on the Simpsons are in the huge crowd of secondary characters that aren't usually involved in the plots, but are just sort of people around Springfield who are in jokes. I'm talking about minor characters like Moleman,...

wandale It isn't exactly about school, but I really like the quote where Homer says "I am so smart. S-M-R-T!" That gets me every time.

Mylot motivation

Sasselle @Sasselle (698) • Australia 14 May 07

How do you stay motivated to post [and reply] at mylot?? I posted constantly for 2 months and then fell off the bandwagon and I can't seem to get back on. I'm finding it very strange as I did enjoy getting to know people and...

wandale I just started a discussion about this! Basically, I think the best way to stay motivated at Mylot is probably to think about the rewards that aren't financial. The money is great, but the best things are the feeling you get from helping somebody who wants...

Rainboots . . .own a pair?

sweetpea_216 @sweetpea_216 (1470) • United States 29 Nov 06

I don't. But on days like today, it's pouring outside, I wish I had bought a pair. Not only to walk to my destination but to splash in the puddles a little.

Rubber Boots, Galoshes, Gum Boots, My Favorite Spring Fashion Accessory!

AskAlly @AskAlly (3625) • Canada 25 Mar 07

I am NOT a puddle jumper. I go right through those mud puddles guns blazing. I have heard too often, "don't get your feet wet, don't jump in the puddles, don't get your boots dirty????????" Why not?!? Am I so "rebellious?" I...

wandale Here here! Puddle jumping is a lot of fun, and it's important to find time and ways to have a great carefree time with your kids. Of course, I don't have kids, but I still jump in puddles. After all, why not?

Do you walk around a water puddle or through it????

vega83 @vega83 (6342) • Bahrain 14 May 07

Well, psychologically speaking, I guess it could tell a lot about a person, just watching them on a rainy day, trying to get across a puddle. But I don't know anything more about that, so let's just leave it at the fact, that I'm...

wandale I like to wear rubber boots when there are puddles just so that I can jump right into them without having to worry about my shoes or having wet feet! I probably look like a dork splashing around, but I'm not about to stop just because of that. After all, there...

what will you choose... "a poor life with many friends" or "a rich life alone"?

ronreyes @ronreyes (4724) • Philippines 14 May 07

For me, I'll choose the rich life alone. It's not because of money but because I'm a loner and I really don't believe in bestfriends or true friends so I don't think I'll survive with the poor life with many friends. You...

wandale I think that both of the options you suggest are "rich." The person who chooses social success over financial success is rich by his or her standards, and the person who doesn't have much money but values their friends above their career is also rich by his or...

elizabethbathory @elizabethbathory (1132) • United States 25 Apr 07

I am a lover of many different music genres. In fact I am an old school Juggalo ( Wikid s*%t 4 life) but I've recently become quite fond of a song by gnarls barkly. Crazy. I've decided that this is my new favorite feel good song....

wandale Crazy is a great track, and always makes me smile. For another great pick-me-up track, you might want to check out the singer Amy Winehouse. She draws from a lot of the same 60s production and songwriting influences as Gnarls Barkley. Her work isn't as hip-hop...
