Prime time tv used to have some good variety shows. Ed Sullivan was, of course, the classic, all time winner. But there were a lot of good ones on at different times. I know late night tv has some but I sure wish there were some...

wifeofharvey That was a fun show. Did you like the Star Treks??? I loved the original, and I do enjoy most of the others. What my husband really likes are the old westerns. Not the Audy Murphy ones but most of the John Wayne type.

In the United States, it's customary to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. But in Ireland the color was long considered to be unlucky, says Bridget Haggerty, author of The Traditional Irish Wedding and the Irish Culture and Customs...

wifeofharvey I had totally forgotten that pinching part of the whole wearing green for St.Patrick's Day!!!!!!!! And some of the people really pinch hard, don't they. I am blessed to live in a calm and quiet household.

wifeofharvey I don't watch the reality shows either. The few I have seen are as far from 'reality' as you can get, in my opinion. The variety shows I really miss, I guess a big part of that is having grown up with them. I do like the CSI type shows a lot. A couple of...

wifeofharvey I hadn't though of the motives of the person who shot the video----------how unkind it was to take video of this woman when she was so upset. Actually I didn't see the video, I am on dialup and rarely ever wait to see the video's. But isn't taking video like...

Okay, I want to start by saying there is NO right or wrong answers to my question. And there is no right or wrong religion either. I want to know HOW religious you are, not whether its a main stream one or not. Are you a...

wifeofharvey I am no Pollyanna----I see and know the negatives, the sad,bad and just plain wrong things are out there. But I don't think dwelling on them changes anything. But I have found in my 60+years that by looking for the good, looking for ways to do good----can and...

The other night President Obama was talking about the need for our young people to have education beyond high school. He mentioned how students would be able to exchange community service time for tuition. I think that is great,...

wifeofharvey Well said, we all need to keep learning. I am a senior citizen and not employable for health reasons, but I try to keep learning. I can no longer take classes, and internet classes seem to be out of my budget but I still find ways to continue learning. Silly...

wifeofharvey You are right, some of those building need replaced or repaired drastically. Would it be more cost effcient to build new or repair? And not all of them are in bad shape. Some of them are pretty new and could be used. I think that there are a lot of people very...

As I read about the devistating fires in Australia, with the number of people who have lost their lives, to say nothing about the huge amount of property loss, I wonder how many other areas are threatened by environment conditions...

wifeofharvey I, too, can't imagine this happening to me. We have our important papers all sorted into a brief case, along with a bag holding a two week supply of our medications, change of clothes, concentrated food, list of family and how to contact them.

wifeofharvey Besides keeping busy I find that if I play lively music it helps to keep me going. Of course the choice of music is up to you. For myself I like Praise music, I can't be glum when I am praising GOD.

wifeofharvey Not so sure about all that, I very much leave others and their beliefs alone. We are all hit in the face every day with ads for things we don't like. For instance, if I don't drink, and I find beer ads offensive, should I scream, holler and raise a fuss about...

wifeofharvey There does seem to be an increase in robberies, and I am sure that the economy has something to do with that. If I thought that the people who stole from us were doing it to feed their children I guess I would have simply given them food or money. But, sadly,...

wifeofharvey You are right, it happened it's over. We aren't all that hung up on it, but I thought it would be interesting to find out how MyLotters thought about it. I am very much enjoying reading the responses.

wifeofharvey It is very important that we teach our children morals. They might rebel against them for a time but most of us return to them.

wifeofharvey Sure, we all get distracted at time, and having kids with us is a big distraction. And yep, most of us did things as a teen that we would not do now.
