Is it just me or... I can't stand some of these people... Some are great though. The skinny girl is one of those - oh look at poor me, I'm crazy, normal people don't and wouldn't do this, I must be special. Tim the biker dude is just - Hey man look this is Everest cliche, cliche, the strong...

Try this I'm not positive if it will always work, but it worked 2 seperate times for me know. Ever notice when you put the lights on the mice run away (usually). Stayed up one night hearing mice trying to get into my food stuff. I threw a glow stick at them to scare them off. I then noticed...

I would like to attend... If someone is up in the air and is not sure if they can attend until just before the event how should they let someone know or can they just show up with the money and stay on the group site.

Wow I lived 2 years on the EAST side. It wasn't a pleasant smell and for some reason I never got used to it. Although when friends visited they seemed to be more bothered than I was by it. I spent many nights out on the porch 3 stories up looking out at Berlin, the lights at night, the mill...

Steriod Shot Caution!!!! During a party I stumbled into a patch of ivy or sumac. I got a rash that covered my hole right leg and up on to my stomach and everything in between. It covered every inch from toe to belly on my right side. It was terrible!!!! I went in to see my Dr. and he...
