A Joyful Christmas and a Blessed New Year to all Rewardia Members & Staff...Let usnot forget amidst the gaeity that Jesus is the Center of it all

Instead of putting these offenders in jail I would place them in the Army. Then maybe they might get the right discipline that their parents were not able to give them.

They may or may not be nice people, but let's face it, they're famous for being famous. None of them has achieved very much apart from looking good on camera & attracting a social media following. I don't wish them ill, but my disinterest in them is total.

Tipping at Starbucks? You\u2019ve got to be kidding. You are standing in a line to get a coffee. You are not receiving any service. Why would you leave a tip. My tip is for employees in the USA to stand up for their rights and fight for proper employee conditions and adequate remuneration.

You\u2019ve already moved on if you\u2019re rooting the neighbour Morenita !!! You\u2019re just feeling a bit guilty because you are accepting money from the ex. No one knows all the details of what has really gone on so only you can decide the right course of action to take.

It's quite common in boys, My son was the same. Except we didn't have those in that sizing back then so it was bed liners and washing each day . There is a nasal spray that can help to slow things down, but basically in most cases it's simply hormonal,( the hormone responsible for concentrating the urine overnight is less present than it should be) and you will find once the 12yr mark kicks in or soon after ,. It will just stop. It's very frustrating I do remember ,but it's important not to let your child feel like it's an issue, They can't help it, It's not from trauma and it's not going to help restricting drinks before bed either. There are plenty of tips online . Don't bother with the bell and pad system either,, all it does is wake the child up when they wet with an alarm and interrupts their sleep often twice a night, more! .. not worth it . As I say it will just miraculously stop once his hormones kick in . Hope that helps some :)

It is being un-educated that is allowing the likes of Trump and Putin to take control of the fate of the world..

They fear for their lives every day as they can't touch the little darlings that get away with a hell of a lot more than we did when we went to school. There is no discipline at all any where, kids these day aren't even scared of the police. They go to court, they are out on bail and commit the same crime over and over again. Unfortunately they are not killing themselves but innocent hard working people that deserve so much more out of life than what has been dished out. Clearly wrong time, wrong place. Then you ask why are the teachers protesting? Give me strength come on the answer is so simple. I would not be a teacher these days and the ones I do know have had a gut full. They are constantly being told to `F' off on a daily basis, told they are ugly and then they swing off their arms causing the teacher pain. Grabbing their arms and then using all their weight to pull them over. Not getting any better that is for sure and so they should want smaller classes and more money. At least they can't bring guns into the schools but other weapons like swords, machetes, knives, flick blades, knuckle busters are found on a daily basis. And again you want to know why the teachers are striking? You try teaching them, you try home schooling your little darling and I see how long you last.

All current plastic produces can be made from Hemp that grows in 3-5 months and 100% degrades to nothing in 75 days

The Victorian government (Australia) have just provided themselves a huge pay rise yet they are telling all Victorians we are now going to need to tighten our belts and pay for the pandemic (which they enforced). Where is the fairness in that?

Exhilleration and depression are polar opposites, i think,all humans experience both in life. Neither lasts forever unless we let it, which means we control how we experience life. I have empathy for people who are experiencing depression ,but i believe we can control it and not be overwhelmed by it.

I intend to give one gold star each time my relatives visit, each star will be worth $100, so they can please themselves. Don't come don't get

When I die please do not weep, for it's not me there, I do not sleep I am the thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain, when you awake in morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in morning light, I am the starshine, soft at night. Please don't be sad and do not cry, for it's not me there, I will not die

I don't have any ailments but have always been a 'walker', miles and miles. Tried the gym but much prefer the open air.

I rarely bought lunch at school. But I have a yummy sanga that have been told its weird. It's a jam, cheese and vegemite sanga. It is so yummy. The sweetness of the jam takes away the saltiness of vegemite and visa versa.

They are anti government extremists. In Australia all of a sudden they seem to be voicing this and going to court but so far the courts have not agreed with any of their so called legal spiel. They believe they are not under the laws of the government, do not pay taxes, car registration, etc. however, they use the health system, roads, and everything the tax payer pays for. The police in this country are really getting fed up with them and the fact they use up our legal systems time. Some use it I think to get 15 minutes of fame, some use it to be recognised and get TV interviews so they can sprout more nonsense, and some I fear really believe this rubbish, and some just follow USA movements. I am so over all these conspiracy theorists, activists, etc. They are not helping the world at all.

Men who wear suits, business shoes and NO socks. What's that about? Apart from having putrid feet at the end of the day.

I have had severe physiological reaction to extreme stress - but I grow up - in 'rough neighborhoods' in the USA. I was able to identify the 'stimulus' - as I got older - (alcohol abuse, criminal justice, systemic racism, street drugs, police, etc.). It is everyday life for a minority in the USA (coping with racial discrimination) - 'dealing' with severe anxiety - Blacks have the second lowest life expectancy in the USA! I (personally) never let it 'get' to the point (panic attack) - were I thought it was a heart attack or I would already be DOA at a hospital!

I liked the show on the ABC where they took the schoolchildren to visit the nursing homes. The people living there got so much out of it & the children also benefited from the intertactions.

I once had a bottle of bourbon that was subject to a recall because of glass fragments...I carefully strained 3/4s of it then took the remainder and exchanged it for a full bottle...I was very happy...

HEAPS of jobs going age care crying out for help even supermarkets can't get staff there are heaps of jobs and the work force is tired of carrying the load for those that just don't want to work.

What a load of codswallop! ...... no such thing ...... Mother Nature will control the climate, not some 'nervous Nellies' who do not have a clue!

I have been frowned upon for buying Lego because it is plastic. I have lost count how much Lego has been passed from family to family, generation to generation and still is showing no signs of wear. Some of it has been walked over, the dog has carried Duplo around no teeth marks. It's outlasted "green" toys

Try a healthy diet and plenty of exercise. It's not a disease for most people and they should stop wasting doctors' time and medical resources that are needed by people who genuinely need them.

Renewables do not work if there is no wind or sun so definitely no to these wind turbines; they are a blight on the countryside. Panels yes on new builds IF they included a large battery. Coal should be in the mix as well as Nuclear.

My selection was second house only 5% with me. But the greatest difficulty would be to grow a magical Bean Stalk to enter that great house?? Those houses are all pretty! In some countries there are actual tree houses in their farm lands as someone would spend-time in the nighttime to protect their crops from wild animals!

Not a roast chicken like I cook. Sounds more like fried chicken to me. Mine is whole. Oil, salt and pepper and butter under the skin. Cook medium for about an hour and then add roast vegetables - potato, pumpkin, capsicum, sweet potato, carrots etc. Cook for 1/2 hour and take chicken out to rest and turn up the temperature of the oven to crisp slightly and brown vegetables.Serve with gravy.

Oh yay Mike says it's winner ! But did you tell him it's chicken mince? (Nice tip on the Wc sauce ) \ud83d\udc4d \ud83d\ude42

Not including psychological issues, many people don't eat intelligently, meaning with understanding of what combinations of food to take or when. This often makes a difference.

It's difficult to give you any advice, as I don't know your skills, experience or any training you may have had or what industry you are looking to build your business in. As for me, I have been self-employed since the mid 1980's and started every business I had without any capital to draw from. One of my most successful businesses is one I started during a recession when people were losing their jobs and companies where closing down. My advice is to start small and simple, then build on that as opportunities arise. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty, be honest, be reliable and give your customers the quality work that they will be happy to pay for. And don't waste money on a fancy office, a flash car or the latest hi-tech phone. Remember always that you work for profit and not to pay off debts.

It\u2019s strange this discussion coming up. My mum died last Sunday. I\u2019m not after sympathy, but I know people care. It was a blessing for her as she was very poorly and it was a huge relief to see her suffering end. About nine years ago I answered my mum back for the first time in my life. She would not recognise my first grandchild as family because she was fostered and in her words not mine \u201c she isn\u2019t blood\u201d. This hurt very much, this beautiful little girl was my first grandchild and I love all my grandchildren equally. I kept my distance for a while but got abusive phone calls from my brother and nearly had to take out a restraining order. My mum changed her will, and I had no say over her health as she got older and deteriorated. She was put in a nursing home, which was very comfortable but she kept asking me what had happened to all her belongings. I didn\u2019t know. I visited her and we spoke and I love her. My psychologist said I would never get an apology for the hurt she caused me but I forgave her. Sorry for the ramble but thank you for letting me write.

i always say no and that maybe your company can put some of their megaprofits in instead of making it look like they have donated when its the shoppers have

I think it is needed as some are hard to see and it makes the decision easyer to make and is a more fair way

My family is large as well. What we do is meet at the local park, lake or nearby beach. Everyone that wants to come brings a main and a dessert to share at a communal table. The children are catered for by water activities and a playground. Adults mingle with whomever they want. At the end (most of it is paper plates\plastic cups) cleaning up takes seconds. The burden of catering is not left to a single person. And our rule is no presents. Having fun, bringing food, participating in activities...that's the present.

Yes, I agree, dogs with those killer tendencies towards cats often go onto to attack people, have seen this many times when working with council dog pound. Often they can not be rehabilitated and have to be euthanised, sad for all concerned. More restrictions, visits are needed for dogs such as these and this savage dog that mauled your cat on a lead is a public safety issue. More than often it is the owner at the cause of the problem with encouraging aggression and non socialisation of dog at fault. There are alot of people involved in dog fighting now and these people couldn't be trusted to look after there dogs and need these animals taken off them

I am single and have been all my life. I enjoy it. It's given me time for self growth. Most of my friends got married within 2 years of leaving high school and took any low paying job they could to pay the bills. I became a teacher and travelled all over the country I live in. I play several instruments, write songs and have a band that we preform at local events. I own my own house, 2 investment properties, a government and a private super, shares and a good size chunk of cash in the bank. Being single DOESN'T mean being lonely. I have great friends and have had relationships along the way. The freedom I have to do anything I want whenever I like is amazing. I don't need to ask anyone's permission to do anything I feel like doing at the drop of a hat, and money is never a problem. When I look at my friends and how deeply they are in debt to the almighty credit card I thank God I'm single. And as far as never having children...well I'm a teacher that is surrounded by children and I have 6 nephews that think I'm the greatest uncle ever due to the gifts and adventures we have had in the past. And still having adventures today with their children. Life is good.

Hi David thanks for this discussion topic. Hospital emergency departments and aquired brain injury wards are testament to people either not using them safely and responsibly, or being injured through no fault of their own. Road users with licenses see first hand people flouting rules including those riding e scooters or e bikes. These machines can travel up to speeds in excess of 40km per hour on footpaths and roads. Not in favour of them.

- pay cash for groceries; withdraw your budget so can't go over it by paying card. You also don't get surcharges doing this. - 10c refund on drink cans etc, save it. I'm at $400 in just over a year doing this - buy 2nd hand

White lies are basically social bubble wrap\u2014sure, the truth is inside there somewhere, but nobody needs to get hurt in the process.

do not understand how someone can sell part of a property, unless it is a group of apartments, what country are you from.?

In my town, the only thing run by volunteers is the gossip network\u2014and trust me, they\u2019re very efficient.

after paying funeral insurance for 58 years, my mum died in Tasmania whilst visiting my sister. No funds released for her funeral as she didn't die in NSW where she lived. READ THE FINE-PRINT PEOPLE!

I attended segregated public schools (kinder garden to the 12th grade) in the USA. My segregated public schools' years are not pleasant. Hence, I 'rarely' reminiscent about my segregated public schools past because I do not have one positive memory! Also, during my public-school years I resided in segregated neighborhoods. Yet, I did learn one cold, hard, ugly fact (from segregation): THE UNITED STATES HAS NEVER BEEN A DEMOCRACY.

Cripes. You could have written that about New Zealand. It beats me why New Zealanders leave here to go to Australia. Hey NZers on Rewardia, I hope you carefully read this discussion of the day....

Never get jealous of an ex with a new partner....I was brought up being told that you always give away your used toys to the needy.

1975 because today 2025 is too confusing right is wrong, left is right, we don\u2019t see eye to eye about anything that\u2019s happening in the crazy world.

The irony is that this current generation never stops to think about who is going to do the work for them. I mean, they don't want to work becasue they just deserve to be given everything, so why would anyone else want to?!? We're all now paying for a welfare system that has created generations of slubberdegullions.

Looking out of the window and seeing two Black Ducks fast asleep in our garden. We believe egg laying is going on in our hedge which happens twice every year when the same pair visits us. Last year we escorted about 18 ducklings and mother off the premises and down to the river.

We are born with a self because we have a personality right from birth. That self, like other beings, evolves and develops over time through various experiences as well as our own genetic predispositions. Just as the self can expand over time, it can also deteriorate just like organic and non-organic matter. Does this mean that the self is just an illusion? Absolutely not. If a piece of metal melted due to extreme heat, would you then say that the metal never existed? Of course not. We know that the same matter can move from solid to liquid to gas or any combination of such changes. The self should be considered in the same way as it shifts from one form to another to yet another.

Resting in the garden on a sunny day, watching the industrious bees and butterflies as they hover above and meander through the foliage to discover the colourful blossoms that burst from within or lizards scurrying across the pavers and lazing on rocks or a glitter of spinebills flitting from branch to branch in search of sweet nectar; that is my favourite place.

I used to drive a western star constellation with a 18 speed road ranger and have 3 trailers on it toke alot of skill and construction to keep it on the road but i am now got a bigger battle as i am fighty cancer

Is there really a shortage or is it just a scheme to hike prices? There are plenty of farmers around area i live that have plenty of eggs & selling much cheaper than in store.

Yes I had a joint account with my wife and when she went off with my best friend she left me $7 in the account Took all the furniture and left me with btw o young boys and two mortgages but I got through ok

bit of a rewarian joke for you, two hillbillys walk into a restaurant and they see a lady choking on something, one says kin ya breathe, she shakes her head turning blue, the other says kin ya swalla, she shakes her head standing up in real trouble, so one of the hillbillys walks over to the girl rips her pants off and licks her behind, the lady shocked spits out the obstruction and the other hillbilly says that the first time i ever seen dat hindlick maneuver thing

God gave women small feet so that they can stand close to the sink, the stove and the washing machine. They should stay there.

I hav no idea of all this stupid jargon that Computer Companies and IT people have invented just to keep their jobs . It is also the best way to get rid of the old folk like me. I am happy when the internet goes down as I still know how to add 1 and 1 together and how much change I get if I use cash not card at a supermarket. The government doesnt want the old people around as they know too much from the "olden days" so put them in the aged homes where they can stagnate with no need for computers. Fortunately I am not interested in all this cloak and dagger age so long as I can open my Amazon Kindle Account and my Rewardia Account and certain easy apps I dont give a hoot for Quantum computing. I had to look it up to find out what is was and the definition is equally as ridiculous as everything to do with programming. 'Utilizes quantum mechanical phenomena like superposition and entanglement to perform computations' I never swear but "What the f....are they talking about".

Yes. I'm a recovering alcoholic, 11 years sober. My daughter sets rules for herself: Don't drink when you're down. Don't drink alone. I'm so damn proud of her

Not much help from me because I rarely leave the island on which I live. And, I rarely leave the small city in which I live. And, I rarely leave the duplex in which I live! See what I mean? ;-D

NEVER! If I'm not mistaken, I understand it's snake 'venom', and things can go horribly wrong! Embrace your wrinkles and grey hair (?) and enjoy your life. It's too short right now to worry about such things! ;-D

I made myself reclusive and I'm better off for it. I have no disappointment or expectations. I rely on myself and I'm happier for it.

Not really, so as when I had big problems recently, and end up going to the Royal Perth hospital, where after a period of waiting, and after being admitted to the Emergency Ward, in no time was admitted to a ward for treatment, will be using this Hospital as they have a whole range of Medical Professionals to attend to my problems

I do not know if you believe in mediums or not but I talk with my family through her, as my wife and brother do every 6 months or so, this is a fun and spiritual hour and a half sometimes two, my brother passed almost a year plus ago and at our local, he has his pic on the honors shelf, we buy him a Bundy shot every time we are there so he can have a drink with us, on our last visit with Liz [our medium] who asked that we buy him a scotch instead of the Bundy he wants to drink what your drinking, How she knew that I have no idea that was something that my brother and I do, another time I had bought some gorilla glue for a bottle cutting project, but I could not find it, we were talking about something else and Liz says before I forget you gorilla glue is in the black and red jar on your table so don't buy any more its expensive your mum says, when I got home there it was, I have so many stories like that, I believe your family stays with you, i constantly talk with them ,they may be gone but they have never left,i you honestly talk with them you will be surprised what you hear

The teletubbies and many other things like candyland board games and Elmo and Molly from the big comfy couch

I went to Bright,Victoria. A small village town half way up Lake Mountain. The most picturesque little town all year round back then.My ex husband and I were travelling by car ,6 hour drive. I was very pregnant with our first child. 40 degree heat in summer. We had a minor accident with the car in the first 15mins,no apparent damage,so continued. We should have turned back then. The car broke down more times than I can count. Luckily we had insurance that offered roadside assistance. By the time we arrived we had spent 12hours on the road in the heat and had the car towed the last 80kms. All accommodation was already paid for,but left us with very little money and bad sunburn. Still wasn't horrible,it's was truly beautiful. We ate ice-cream,walked around town, waded though the Oven's river( which is melted snow and freezing any time of year). We had some food we brought with us. Funny that everything we planned went wrong,but just being there was refreshing. Young love..we didn't care,had nothing,no money,no car. It didn't matter.

Sure, Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. I am finding it increasingly difficult to find who I am on surveys with all the new genders and sexualities and then you have to repeat all of this on the next page because "sex assigned from birth" is one question and "sex you see yourself as". How about just ask if you are male or female or other because if you TRULY believe you are one of these, then why does it matter what sex you were assigned at birth? And, just for simplicity, for sexuality, just have "gay or straight or other" and they can fill in what their "other" is instead of giving all survey takers a laundry list of possibilities to plough through until we find what we identify with? Honestly, it takes longer to read these prequalification lists these days than is reasonable. Next they will be asking us if we consider ourselves human, alien or a furry and then THIS will have its own laundry list of ridiculous possibilities. Oh, I forgot about the alien lizard species since just saying "I am alien" may not be good enough for some people. What if I identify as a Klingon or other race from Star Trek? The possibilities for making this question a kilometre long are endless!

Like most of you I arrived into the world with very little fuss, and I intend to leave the world the same way. Why put all your friends and relatives through the expense of the funeral, and in many cases the high travelling cost? Funerals are for the living, not the dead. The corny line about "paying your respects" is Undertaker-speak for making indecent money from your estate for them. Watch out for the undertaker whose other half runs a florist shop and their son is in the catering business. thanks lynda e for your worthwhile forum board.

Yes I would after I got my cast iron skillet and beat the crap out of him after he went to sleep. I am not going to let him hit me and not get a few licks of my own in.

If you own your home you are in a very fortunate position, those of us that rent and are likely to rent until we die, get through by not causing hassle, often putting up with issues that homeowners wouldn't. Not owning pets, having no outdoor space for a washing line or garden are detrimental from my point of view and in the meantime we are charged excessive rents by those that have the wealth. I would say that MOST renters don't report issues as Landlords have so much power to pick and choose tenants. Sad but true...

Supermarket paper bags !!\ud83d\ude21 l hate paying 25c for just one of them and then they break by the handles or spilt on the edges ..especially as the staff are usually useless at packing them... Overpack or careless .lt's a business You should be giving us free bags to take our product home in after you've made a nice profit from us ( massive profits compared to other stores who give you a free bag!!); .. and you'll also get free advertising as we walk down the street with your logo on the bags eh? Then any surviving bags just collect in my cupboard expecting to be bought to the shop again one day ..mm never going to happen. Too bulky ,,and annoying and will not be in a good enough state by the time they get walked home again. So it's keep any nice plastic ones I get from other businesses ( yeahhh still available!) and try my hardest to remember to take a couple in my bag always !

If you can take the time, try the Pearl Farm on Samal Island in Mindanao, Philippines. It is absolute heaven! Food is good, fresh, and very tasty.

Oh, it\u2019s simple\u2014women have learned the hard way that complimenting a man is basically signing an unspoken contract that he now thinks he\u2019s irresistible. You tell a guy, "Hey, nice shirt!" and suddenly he\u2019s convinced he\u2019s the best-dressed man in the tri-state area. He\u2019s standing in front of the mirror, flexing, and considering starting a fashion blog. You say, "Wow, your cologne smells great!" and now he thinks you\u2019re secretly in love with him and starts making up your wedding hashtag. Meanwhile, women get compliments all the time and just say, "Thanks!" and move on with their lives. A girl could hear "Your eyeliner is flawless!" and just be like, "Yeah, I spent 45 minutes on it, I know." But if a guy hears "Nice haircut!" he's suddenly pricing out motorcycles and sunglasses. So, ladies have just learned to keep it to themselves. It\u2019s a survival tactic. Compliment at your own risk\u2014because next thing you know, Chad from accounting is naming your future children.

Seriously I am finding some of these discussions so boring. Use your common sense and make your own decisions.

Oh, it's only going to get weirder. Today, it's digital models; tomorrow, it'll be AI girlfriends who text you good morning and remind you to drink water. By next year, they'll come with a virtual mother-in-law who sends passive-aggressive notifications about your life choices. And let's be real\u2014if the bots ever get self-awareness, they'll start ghosting people just like humans do. "Sorry, Dave, I just don't feel a connection. Also, my algorithm says you're 87% likely to leave dishes in the sink, and I deserve better."

WELL, no matter what country if we didnt vote is or support morons who are only there to line their own pockets... I think maybe the train has left the station and we will suffer for our lack of interest in who and what is voted in. Your thought was actual fact 50 years ago, but we have advance so much we are living in a lunatic assylum.

No, thank God. They have tried though. I get emails all the time telling me that I have a million dollars waiting for me. I ain't stupid!!

What a stupid assumption. I have been both and both have its ups and downs --- to each his own and neither is better than the other. Did you get programmed at UNI????

No, I restarted life at age 35 and now I am 75 years young and have been forced in 2008 at age 59 into an early retirement. I do online surveys to augment my stipends of SS and pension each month (Less than $1700 of which rent is $700).

Read God's word the Bible daily, meditate on what it says, follow it's instructions, pray and always be humble and kind! ;-D

I think Christmas has become too comercialised it a religious Celebration PLease try to keep it that way or the meaning will be lost

I\u2019m of the opinion now at my stage of life where I only respond to what I feel is fair and good for me, otherwise I just don\u2019t respond, as noted filter! And also important to have a sense of humour, don\u2019t take life to seriously\u2026

You need to ditch that friend group! Surround yourself with positive, caring, giving, compassionate and kind people who will embrace and appreciate you

Always fresh air as don\u2019t have dryer. Sheets feel so good & fresh! Australia has the best fresh air.

Not really. Bank of Mum and Dad has always existed. I think the expectation is what has changed. I know my generation would only ask our parents for a loan if we were really in dire straits...and then pay it back. Now, I think there's generations of children who expect their parents to help and actually gift them the money.

EV's a big risk. Also, child labour used to produce lithium for batteries. Batteries as far as I know not recyclable. Pollution still created by the manufacture of these vehicles. What is the point?

If everyone on this earth lived by the guidelines written for our benefit in God's inspired word, the Bible, there would be no wars, no poverty, no abuse, no loneliness, none of the things we see in the world today. Please search for answers in the Bible to whatever problems you are having because the answer is there. You just have to search for it! Please read 2 Timothy 3:14-17. ;-D

When I visit the shops (KMart or Coles) I always go the counter where a Team Member can serve me...just trying to keep someone's job!!

I agree that you are living a clean healthy life but you are wrong when you say the majority picks on the minority as it's quite the reverse. The people demonstrating for Palestine are a minority, the people pushing man-made climate change are a minority, the people who claim a man can be a woman are certainly a minority and the LGB and whatever other letters they have are a minority. They all scream and shout while the silent majority keeps their heads down and gets on with it.

I am rather a bit of a panic merchant, so I am always on edge, and with all that is going on in the world, I thank my lucky stars that I am or rather seem to be coping, however this latest argument between Isreal, and who ever plays on mind as I don't want our kids to be part of any wars

Well, here in the USA our news revolves around the election later this year in which our choices seem to be an invalid, a felon, and a guy who says a worm ate part of his brain, so yes, this is affecting me and not in a good way. You guys have room for me down under ?

i spent 7 years in the infantry in the '60s, where i learned that fighting for country was the farthest thing from the truth, we were fighting for the folks that built planes, tanks, guns, uniforms, ammo etc, to give them exorbitant profits, Viet Nam, where we learned how to profit from war at the expense of our young folks, not all, just the ones their daddy couldn't pay his way out of it

Parents should teach their children as we were taught years ago with strictness but the do-gooders have made it very with all the political correctness that a child can't get a smack or be chastised & so they are completely overriding any discipline. for goodness sake parents do not want to maim their kids, but it is time for them to discipline without being charged

Superstitious is the devil's idea to cloud you mind and not make the right decision. When things happen, it happens for a reason. Black cat crossed the road to go home, or, to find food, or to find a mate. One of my best friends told me not to look in the mirror at night, because you see bad things. Thats a load of hogwash

At first glance it seems like a lot of money has been spent on the space program. However, when you look at it in total, many amazing scientific discoveries have been made. Camera phones. Scratch resistant lenses. CAT scans. LEDs. Athletic shoes. Water purification systems. Dust busters. Home insulation. Jaws of Life. Wireless headsets. Memory foam. Baby formula. Artificial limbs. Computer mouse. Portable computers.

As a semi-retired tradie and I have always eaten lunch while I work without stopping due to very unreasonable deadlines. So in general, there is no need to offer lunch as most tradies bring their own or send the apprentice to buy some. But as for me, I have always appreciated the offer of a nice hot coffee.

weddings are too expensive you can have a cheaper wedding there are so many options the op shops have so many dresses

I usually give them a friendly wave out the window!! Makes me feel good and hope they have a sense of humour

Oh, for goodness' sake, what next? Can't people be happy just to be able to have a baby at all? There are some of us who would have dearly loved to have had kids but were never able to. Just be satisfied with whatever you are blessed with!
