Last year I stayed on the east end of Sanibel and loved it. This year I was thinking of renting a house on Captiva's North end. I was wondering what the surf is like on that end. It was very calm where we stayed last year. I've heard there are parts of the island that the water is rough (especially near the causeway). I need a swim friendly place for the kids that aren't strong swimmers. Also, hoping for a good shelling beach for Mom. Any info would be great, I don't know Captiva at all.

I got a one week stay as a gift to any Plan With A Tan property. I'm reading mixed reviews on some of the places. I was leaning towards staying in Florida but if you've stayed in any that is a drivable location from PA, I would love to hear about it good or bad. Looking for the beach areas 0 not Disney. Thanks!

What is the tat of on Audrina's neck?

My daughter just got a hermit crab down the shore and I went to add water, so I picked the crab and it's claw was sitting in the cage. Can they loose claws and still be living? What is the life span? How much do they sleep? Is it sleeping or dead? We haven't even had it for 24 hours. It does have the wet sponge and food in the cage. It was moving before we drove the 1 1/2 hours home. I kept it in the shade on the way home. I need hermit crab help!

Palin supporters - do you still think she is so great? Is it OK to give up after only 2 1/2 years? And what about the comments she made about Trig. Has anyone ever heard or seen proof of someone in the media or public eye make jokes or comments about Trig. It seems like she is using that as an excuse. If you have, please list the link. I've got to see it to believe it. I can't believe that anyone would make rude comments or jokes about a baby.

I'm shocked that she would bail - somethings fishy - anyone agree?

I'll be in Orlando in the middle of June. I wanted to spend 2 nights in Clearwater with my husband and 6 year old daughter. I'm looking for a reasonably priced, CLEAN hotel on the Gulf side of the beach. Any suggestions? I've been on hotel.com, I want someone with personal experience. We've never been to the West coast of Florida.

My daughter is 6. Is there a lot to do? How are the animal attractions - fun or lame?

I was looking online and some places have bad reviews stating the neighborhoods are bad. I'll be with my 6 year old daughter so I am looking for a safe, clean, reasonable priced place just for one night

Do any of the lakes have beaches? Are they safe to swim in? Are the Gulf beaches the light blue water? Is the Atlantic side water light or dark like up near NJ?

I'm looking for things to do besides the theme parks in and around Orlando. I will be staying in Apopka. Any thing free or cheap going on for kids?

Please spare me the Bush was great or I hate Bush answers. Just what did he do that made American better for the middle class? Also none of the religious answers please. Like my forefathers, I like to keep my church and state separate.

it is almost the end of GS cookie selling season and my troop has too many boxes left over that we can not seem to sell no matter how hard we try. I think everyone has bought what they are going to buy. If we don't sell them then our troop has to pay for them and the girls will not get to enjoy any activities that we were planning on using the money for. Any cookie moms out there or troop leaders/moms that have any advise? How do I get rid of these cookies? Please don't respond ebay, we are not allowed to sell on ebay as per the GS organization.

They need to come up with another 40,000 dollars. The city will not bail them out like they did the mummers. I've googled it and it still seems to be up in the air. There are 4 fundraisers scheduled but none have happened yet. There are companies and individuals who have made donations but I can't find out how much they have so far. I looked at several sites, but this one had some info but not enough.

So does anyone have any inside scoop? My daughter wants to irish dance in the parade so I need to order the outfit. it is very expensive so I don't want to pay for it if the parade is cancelled. Any inside scoop would be great - thanks

I watched the interview with the octoplet Mom tonight. She said she wanted lots of kids b/c she felt like she was missing the bond that woman with sibling have. She said she had lots of friends but its just not the same. I have some really great friends that I would do anything for but its still not the same love as I have for my brother so I get what she is saying. I'm concerned b/c my daughter is an only child. I had complications during my pregnancy so I can't have anymore. So I guess my question is for the only children out there. Do you feel like you missed something growing up without siblings?

I have an off and on again pain in my lower pelvic area on the left side for the last 2 weeks. It then seemed to move from the left to the right and now it is on the right side a little bit higher but still below the belly button. the pain throbs a little and is not that strong. I do not have pain when going to the bathroom. Going to call the doc on monday but just wondering if anyone has any ideas. I first thought it was muscle pain from new yoga positions and then i thought maybe it was period related (jut finished my cycle) but now I'm not sure

I updated my IE b/c of the new security risks. I now can't log into some of my of my internet accounts. i can't downlaod files from my email. I can't upload photos to the net. How do I fix this?
