I have noticed that some people take the strainer out while washing dishes! How do you make sure there are no food particles that will wind up going down the drain? I know about scraping the plate first, but for people who do not scrape first and take the strainer out, how do you prevent the drain from becoming blocked?

Do you think it is better to talk to each other here and now, or end up having no choice but to reconnect with those we alienate once we get to heaven? I see it too often, family and friends who think they have a "good enough" reason to stop talking to someone!

When I try to click on the words "add as a contact", it says that a user cannot add themselves as a contact! I thought maybe I was adding someone else; why is it even there?

"Give me a sentence about one of the public servants we learned about today," said the teacher.

One small boy wrote, "The fireman came down the ladder pregnant."

How many people are denied justice or their rights in the US? I know of a judge that would not listen to the person and she ended up getting punched hard in the face, because of the judge! How do we get rid of bad judges?

It is commonly thought that the spouse is "enabling" the other spouse if there is no divorce or separation. Can you think of situations where the spouse cannot leave?

The shelters in major metropolitan areas are usually full at every moment, and the waiting list is so long, most people have to use the court systems to get more time to find another place to live. What are the families facing abuse supposed to do? Especially if the abuse is verbal and emotional, etc then the abused persons shelters are even more full than the rest! Especially during football season!

I grew some mung bean sprouts. Now there are leaves and roots! Can we still eat them? If we let them grow, will we end up with mung beans?

Can you tell us what happened?

Every time there is a holiday or important day, this one person in particular says or does something that makes me want to walk away, cry, or wonder what is wrong with him? I try to ignore it but I cannot delete him from my life since we are family and I want to spend time with my children, having a pleasant time. What can I do or say to get him to stop?
