So, I really like this guy, but he's a smoker. I'm not. I've never been a fan of smoking and it is a huge turn-off. But even with ym detest of smoking, I still have an attraction. So, should i put up with his smoking, or find...

yanxchick I feel if it's something that bothers you a little bit now, it will only get worse later on. You aren't going to grow to like something that you detest. Talk to him about quitting.

There are not too many people that I admire in baseball... the ones that stay with teams for their whole careers... Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn in my time. But another person that I always was able to relate to in a way was Roger...

yanxchick I agree with you as well. This was a discussion we had in my office yesterday. This is a very forgiving society. If he did do it, I think he gains more by coming out and admitting than trying to fight this and going to court for it. People will still love...

yanxchick I use sitemeter.com I like it a lot. I also use statcounter because it tells me what keywords people use to find my page. It lets me know what words I should be using in my blogs so that people can find my pages.

Does it seem to you that Belle is always crying? I don't think there is one episode that she isn't just sobbing in. I get that her life is in shambles, but a lot of it is her fault. She's a great crier though, so I need to...

yanxchick I get what you're saying, but Claire is now four or five years old. At this points, it's getting a little old. I feel like she made mistakes, she should own up to them instead of crying over them. I feel like the crying gets people no where. If you show...

yanxchick That's pretty cool. I actually just got a library card and when I go over there next time I am going to ask them about that. I never thought about doing that and it seems like a great thing. I'm actually kind of jealous. Good luck with all your stuff.

yanxchick I think the line where she said that her and Shawn are soul mates was pretty telling. I think the writers are going to get them back together, but they could end up getting divorced first. I was sitting here thinking that if they are soul mates that in time...

yanxchick I was going to suggest this same thing. It takes a lot of hard work, patience, tears, hair pulling and time to get articles published in those bigger publications. You have look at smaller publications and places that are looking for that specific type of...

yanxchick I just watched the reunion episode and I was thinking the same thing. I'm like how do all these girls know that's Philip? He had a face transplant. It's these kind of things that make me really annoyed with the show.

Let me start by saying I think baseball players taking steroids should be punished, but does it really aide a person in hitting a baseball? I don't doubt it gives an athlete more strength, and power, but you still have to have...

yanxchick You can't disregard their records. It's impossible. What about the people who have taken steroids and weren't put in this report because this report isn't the beginning and the end to the steroid problem? Pretending as though these people didn't exist isn't...

yanxchick That's unfortunate and the wrong attitude to have. Roger Clemens is good because of his talent and work ethic. No amount of steroids could have made him the pitcher he is. Really, if steroids made people into super athletes and I could get paid millions upon...

yanxchick You can't catch people who do HGH. There is no testing for that and until a test can be done to prove it, guys will continue to take it. Bonds, Clemens, some of the other guys. Here are aging players whose bodies don't heal as quickly and break down faster...

yanxchick As a die-hard Yankee fans, I have to say that I didn't see a problem with the report. As former senator Mitchell pointed out, one of the two men who cooperated with him was a NY guy. Therefore it was easier for NY players to get their hands on steroids....

They say this episode of Desperate Housewives is going to be the biggest one of the year, the one no one can miss; the previews certainly look ominous. Lynette's piercing scream was enough to scare anyone to death. Any ideas here,...

yanxchick I agreed with Lynette, then again I am also allergic to cats. I didn't see the problem with putting the cat in its cage in an upstairs closet. It wasn't like she was putting the cat out on the front porch. I don't like animals. I guess this probably has...

yanxchick I think Meredith and Derek were a big part of the show to begin with, but they have so many characters in this show now with so many problems that it's hard to just think about them. Rose is the new nurse than kissed Derek on the last episode. However, all...
