  • Do those little things you put on your front bumper help to scare away deer?

    I see lots of deer on my way to work, I almost hit one this morning when he tried to jump onto the highway, then turned at the very last minute. It is getting dark in the morning, and I am really afraid of hitting one. Any advice will help!

  • Is anyone else bothered by flashing ads on websites?

    Or by ceiling fans, particularly those with attached lights? These things are instant migraine triggers for me. I have complained about flashing web ads but have never had a response back. I see in the news today that they will pull the new Olympics logo because it causes seizures in some people, and I know that some animated films have the same effect. I am interested in knowing if I am alone with this, or if others have similar problems.

  • Why do people gain weight as they age?

    I don't think the answer is as obvious as it seems, that is, that people eat the same number of calories, but use less energy. If I look around at people getting older, there are a few who are rail thin, but most really get quite heavy. Furthermore, do you think it is possible to prevent this, or is it inevitable?

  • US/Canadian Border?

    Do you think the border between Canada and the USA should (or could) be dissolved, and what advantages or disadvantages would you foresee.

    I think the countries complement each other and they each have aspects which would enhance their neighbor, so I would like to see the border disappear, although I seriously doubt that will ever happen.

  • Anti Static Hair Product?

    Does anyone know of a product which will eliminate static electricity from hair? I have tried all sorts of conditioners, and have asked hairdressers, but no one has been able to recommend anything. I have not been successful with hair spray or with rubbing a dryer anti-static sheet on my head. Winter is coming fast, and I am really uncomfortable with fly away hair.

  • Can a US citizen go to Cuba on a US passport?

    Is it legal to travel through Canada to get there, or is that asking for trouble? My Canadian niece is getting married in Cuba, but I do not know if, or how, we can attend from the States.

  • How can I dispose of an old TV and a large computer monitor, both outdated.?

    Both still work well, but I have upgraded, and have no idea what to do with these old heavy things. Seems a shame and environmentally damaging to throw them away.
