    Does getting justice help?

    Does it help to seek and maybe get justice by filing charges, complaints, or civil lawsuits? Does it help ease the feeling of being helpless and vulnerable and a victim? Does it help stop the flashbacks and let you sleep? Does it help you stop directing your anger toward yourself? Does it...

    Need advice: Clear finish for art print?

    I have an old color print of a painting that I'd like to spray with a clear preservative--glossy or matte. It's a paper print on cardboard, and never had glass over it. It has some water stains, but the ink doesn't smudge if you wipe it with a damp cloth. I considered a clear acrylic...

    HDTV - Will standard TVs still receive a signal?

    HDTV is still a mystery to me! :confused: If I buy a standard TV, will it someday not be able to get any signals? Are the TV stations going to stop broadcasting such that a standard TV won't work? I understand the picture is much sharper on the HDTV. But, does it require a cable...

    James 5:13-15

    Why do you think James tells us to pray if we are in trouble, but to ask the elders of the church (other Believers) to pray for us if we are sick? "Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of...

    Someone famous I'd enjoy talking with is...

    Some of the people I see in the current news or read about in history seem so interesting, I think how fascinating it would be if I could talk with them. For example, Sandra Day O'Connor. She inspires me as much now that she is giving up her place on the Supreme Court to take care of her...

    Have you ever tasted...

    I think we all probably know some foods that are common in one region of the country but never heard of other places! Some are ethnic dishes brought to an area by the people who settled there. Some are unusual because a certain food grows in that region. Some are maybe based on the economics...

    Did anyone see this movie on Sunday, September 11, on the Discovery channel? I didn't; but, I'm considering buying the DVD as a gift. I'm wondering how the movie portrayed the events and people, and what gave them the courage to act.

    Where were you when you heard the news on 9/11?

    The memories of that day are still vivid. I had turned my car radio off that morning, so I didn't hear the news when it first happened. We were in court that day and were waiting for things to get started. One of the attorneys came in and asked if we had heard that a plane had hit the WTC...

    Stories about our Pets

    Most of us seem to have pets--cats, dogs, birds. W.C. Fields said that "anyone who hates kids and dogs can't be all bad." But, I think the opposite is true: "anyone who loves kids and dogs can't be all bad." I think we all probably have some funny, cute, sweet, touching stories about the pets...
