I hated the way the "simpson" kids and "roseanne's" kids talked back to their parents, so I didn't let my kids watch them. They didn't miss a thing! As a matter of fact they are addicted to watching Simpson's as young adults and would never talk back to me! You certainly don't have to allow...

I don't think it is off the air. I saw it on MTV for the first time the other day. I think it is really stupid, but I see the attraction for the daredevils of the world!

My daughter just called me to say she had saved a cat for the first time... She is in college and her boyfriend's mother told her that they heard a cat meowing under the house all night but it had stopped meowing and she was afraid it was dead. She went to the house and her favorite stray cat...

I live in Texas and summer before last, when my daughter was in Alaska, she sent me a ticket to visit her. She and six of her Rice University buddies had all gone there for the summer and were staying in an apartment together. I flew there and we drove all over the place and hiked until two...

I think all teachers of elementary kids should have a project near Christmas to make gifts for the parents. They should also have a session on wrapping them so that they go home and become a present under the tree. Not for the parents sake, but to teach the children the spirit of giving and...

Emptying the diswasher is the worst. Tip: do it in teams. It has become my one-on-one time with Glenn's 7-year-old daughter. Not only does she expect to have to do it, but she likes it and I get my best stories and giggles at that time. O.K. it is after Christmas now so . . . What is the...

If you don't believe, you don't receive! What is your favorite cut of steak, for the vegetarians your favorite vegetable?

uh oh, Julie got there first but here was my posing nude answer: If I looked like one of my daughters I would, but don't give them that idea. now to answer Julie: He wouldn't want me to be friends with my ex-husband but he would allow it, however, my ex has nothing to do with his kids. We...

I didn't have this site to ask questions to when my Amaretto started losing hair on his face. His got really bad. The vet cured it with an antibiotic (it had gotten infected), but I decided for myself that it happened because of a plastic self-feeder and elimated the problem. (the vet...

As my signature says, I, Amaretto, am Karen. I call myself Amaretto because that is my "in your face" cat's real name. I did that to remind me of his real name, because I call him Buddy and his sister Baby so I often forget who they are. It has been fun seeing all those names, but Anne, you...

That one's easy. I drove all night to take an ex-boyfriend to his father's hospital room when he was dieing and drove that same ex-boyfriend to his sister's funeral, stayed with him, went to the funeral, visited with the "ex" family and drove him home. If you could have any job you wanted...

My favorite game to play with the cats is called "boxer kisses". The curious dogs love to get close to the cats so we try to get them all to kiss. With three boxers and two siamese cats it will be a love fest if it ever happens. Question: What do you do at home alone to relax??

It is my understanding that - yes, plastic collects bacteria, but so can others if they aren't cleaned regularly. My suggestion is to wash the bowls with scalding water regularly. I had a free feeder for my cats that was made of plastic and my boy had horrible places on his face that he...

Listening to all of your stories. I think I will elope!! Is there any other way to do it to avoid all the fiascos?

romantic thing my fiance proposed on one knee in my living room in front of all three teenaged daughters and their boyfriends. Sabra, I love your name! Favorite home decorating, SOUTHWESTERN Question: If you had the time to volunteer - would you and where?

It is the senior food I was concerned about, but I figured it was o.k. Those certainly are some beautiful Siamese New Jersians. I especially like that beautiful dark one. Thanks again.

I am sure this has been answered before, but is it o.k. to feed mature cat food to an 18 month old. My friend rescued two surrendered cats and was told by the previous owner that she fed the 8 year old mature cat food and that the young one ate it, too. I am sure it would be difficult to...

Sorry about the loss of JoJo. I'm glad you have something new to occupy some of your thoughts. One thing my seventeen year old daughter swears by and it has seemed to work since all my cats are "in your face" cats is to hold them as much as you can. Put the new baby in your lap and even if...

My friend rescued a persian cat from a shelter a couple of weeks ago. He is a five year old who had a good home. (New baby came - cat left.) The unfortuate thing is that the cat was paper trained instead of litter trained. Even that might be livable, but it has decided to urinate on the bath...

I know a couple of people who are looking for boxer puppies in Houston. What does it look like, and about how old is it? I own three boxers and have a large network of boxer owner friends. (mostly in Houston) I also lost/had one stolen last April. A beautiful brindle male. He would be ten...
