    What's for Dinner?

    I realized that one while I was a kid. Every time they gave us awful-tasting food, drinks (and cough syrups), it came with "It's good for you. Take it!". So, my first thing I think of when I hear a "good for you" is :puke: Great. :D

    Living a Ration Book Life

    Times of trouble has taught people to keep their money safe - at home. When banking giants collapsed in early '90 (meaning: when they emptied the cash and fled across border); people had their money out of reach. It was under a financial lock-down; no matter how much you had - you could not have...

    Dita Von Teese

    Oprah - I know her. :nod: That show was BIG. This girl in question... she's just one more forgettable face in the sea of similar face. [huh] (when I put it like that, I feel sorry for her) Not everyone can draw as much attention as Dita.

    Dita Von Teese

    I agree, Sheeplady. It's an industry like any other - except media does not produce machines, it makes female clones. :wink: (to tell you the truth I have NO idea who the lady in question is, since I live far, far away...) :D

    Being called by your first name at work

    I work in a governmental office. In the ideal case, I'd prefer people to be polite and call me by Madam (and most of the population do, when they address me). It is my co-workers that fail to do so - I suppose they feel no need to keep the polite distance and call me by my last name. Ever since...
