    I can see a person publish a hundred words on ML and then, having more to say, come here and make it a three hundred word discussion.   But it would be different, not cut and pasted.  Some times I’ll be on ML and post a few sentences, then a day later get inspired and think;  “I should have written this on LB and made it a real article…”   but…[Read more]

    I adore this series, and have mentioned it before.   Why I encourage watching it is that it was, ‘the most innovative series on television’, a quote of what was said at the time.

    Now when you watch, appreciate […]

    • I watch the old episodes of this show either on TV or via Netflix. I can’t get enough Rod Serling. I grew up watching this show and I am so glad to be able to watch the series again!! Images in black and white. Just like how I remember them! 🙂

      • I watch them on 123movies.is. I try to limit my consumption so as not to overdose.

        • I know what you mean about overdosing. Sometimes when your Internet connection or the electricity goes out in your house and you were right in the middle of an episode, you feel like you’re having a KA-NIPSHIN!! 🙂

    When He Reaches His Hand To Receive The Fare
    I cannot forget awhile ago what I had experienced while commuting. I do not drive my car for the road near home is under renovation and it has only one lane passable. […]

    • Let us always pity the drivers and extend our helping hands like passing the fare in h has no conductor,

    • The least that we can do when we touched those kind of hands is not to mind at all and don’t make any facial expression that may show disgust.

      Why would we be disgusted, when rough hands shows that the person is an industrious and hard working one. He got those from constant working in the case of the driver from constantly steering the wheels of his car and sometimes helping carry some baggages of passengers into his car.

      Let us help those people be dignified in their work, by not minding at all that their hands are rough, when we receive our fares.

      Well, my hand are also a bit dry. That’s because I am fond of washing my hand every now and then, even if I am always working on my computer.

      It means I am a hard worker too. 🙂

    • @Dina, there are hypocrites,pretentious feeling they are rich and feeling the person as dirty.That is why I do not consider students’ excuses just to let them pass for that driver has son in college that is why he said he works evening and day.

    @Mahesh, that is why I am so thankful to my friend who invited me to join here, if not, I will struggle there in Mylot. The pay I received this month was earned for two months and only $15. Two months here if non stop submission of blogging entitles me almost $70. You are right ML is so slow but those tenured there seem enjoying their earning,LOL.

    • Excellent question in the end of your article “One wonders what is going on.” Over the past few years, it seems to me as if the Western media is constantly pushing stories and images of homosexuality in our homes through plays, books, movies, and news. No story seems to be complete without a homosexual character even where it is not needed in the plot or has got nothing to do with the story.

      • Exactly. Here is a story we all know… there is no Gay character in Beauty and the Beast, yet this one is jammed in and you are forced to keep it in… why? Why is homosexuality being forced on people?

    • I must agree that it being a movie that caters for children and their parents, that part should really be cut.

      Indeed it seems that homosexuality now is now being injected in movies. Good if it is to make people laugh, it will be okay and can be watched by children, since gays are people filled with humor.

      Actually, I haven’t seen that movie yet. Maybe because it’s the for children type of movie that’s why I am not interested, although I can watch that should I want to. I think the kid in me has already slept just waiting to be awakened.

      Though here in the Philippines the children are used to seeing gays in fact some of them are already gays at a young age.

      However, in your country where it is not yet openly accepted, it understandable that the said part be cut instead. That’s a good move of your government. I salute your government for doing that.

      • Malayasia went to cut it, and Disney refused. In Jamaica… I don’t think they’ll show the movie. We don’t need to see it.

    • LOL. If people could re-write the Bible they’d make the relationship between David and Jonathan homosexual. Believe me I’ve heard people try to argue that! So there’s a gay scene in the latest version of “Beauty and Beast”. Why am I not surprised?

    • And I am and my husband one of them. We both don’t say sorry when we realize our mistake. Although, we would hug to make up for the non-existent sorry.

      Yes, I would nag him and accuse him too when he didn’t answer my call. I would text him nagging words also.

      And when he arrives home, he would explain and show to me his phone – drained. I would feel ashamed of myself, but won’t say sorry. I would hug him instead.

      I think we understand each other when we are sorry because we both would hug instead of say the very difficult word sorry.

      • It is the same thing here. With communications. It is like it is a leash. Sometimes I slip the leash.

    • Funny, how he waited for your response. He is a bit of a paranoid. Imagine waiting for you when it is just a virtual place.

      WHen I am on a blogging site, I don’t actually expect to be responded at once because I know that we all have different time zones.

      But when my comment gets a response at once, I would really have a nice interaction with that person. We would comment on each other’s response until it gets too long and funny.

      • If we are going back and forth, i.e. messenger and I say, brb or I’m going out or whatever… to tell you I’m not there… fine. If I get an email, well it could have been sent yesterday.. I answer. Doesn’t mean I am sitting in email… so.. have to give time… post. No answer… wait. Person could be off line

    • Arguments are often caused by misunderstanding or lack of communication. Some people who are having a bad day, sometimes lash out, to start an argument with the wrong person or it could be the right person. This does not make it right, to start an argument. One thing that I realize, is that nothing can be resolved when this happens.

      When a person is living a miserable life, this is also a reason that a person might become argumentative. It is hard to ignore this person, but would be the best result so the argument will not be escalated. Arguments can turn out to be very ugly if it is not handled correctly. Someone has to be the better adult about it.

      There are times when a person wants to have the last word, which can also trigger an argument. I have learned that you are not always going to get your point across to a person. It does not necessarily have to be your fault, but you have to know when to let things go. If there is no reason for you to respond to this person, then don’t. Sometimes you can just be tested by certain people, to see if they can get a reaction from you. If you bite, then the argument is on!

      So just be mature about the situation and handle it like an adult. If a person wants to start an argument, let them argue by themselves. Talking, being civilized, is often the best solution when an argument occurs. If there is no reasoning, then you need to walk away.
