    • The point is, you don’t have an secrets to the extent they erase who you are. In the example, what value is it for Carly to hear the truth? She probably knows it… and covers up. What use is it for Lisa?

    I wanted to try Middle Eastern flavors and cooked a soup that didn’t have my common everyday ingredients.  My husband and sons enjoyed it so much.  I can’t remember how I cooked it!  Drives me nuts!!  🙂

    The American programme “Lost” was one of those unique shows which people talk and think about.  I don’t know what it was really about, as so much is surreal that I can’t be sure if this ‘really’ happened on the […]

    • I have tried to watch this series so many times, and I can’t seem to get past episode 5 in the first season. I’ve been told by so many friends and family that the series ends very strange, but luckily no one has spoiled it for me by telling me the ending.

      I keep telling myself that I’m going to start watching Season 1 from the beginning again, because it’s definitely a series where you can’t get up and go do something in the kitchen, or fix yourself a quick bite to eat while watching it, and be able to keep up on what’s going on. I think that’s what I did when I watched it the first few times.

      Maybe I’ll try watching it again soon, because I heard it was a good series, but just the ending was bad.

      • When you watch online, you can start, stop, and rewind. So you can see something… ‘what?’ and go back, see it again, stop, think, ‘get it’ then go on. It is a specifically puzzling series made to be puzzling….made to force you to think.

    Considered one of the best television series of all times, Breaking Bad is, in some respects, an uncomfortable viewing.  It is very well acted, very well written, but the plot is rather unsavoury, and the […]

    I’ve already dealt with moderation.

    In fact, I might have dealt it too hard a blow because we have gone from intense to none; and that has caused a bit of decline as various people publish very low quality items, […]

    • I absolutely agree. Having that enticement to be on the front page, motivates each one to write better so their article will be on the front page.

      I used to be on the front page on the famous defunct site. The more that I am there, the more that I am motivated to write substantially and something that many can relate so they can give their insights on the topic therein.

      Hopefully, admin will have this implemented too in the near future.

      • It is time to change the front page. There is nothing there to catch the eye. They can shrink what is there now, move it down, and put the best items on the front page to catch the eye. This would attract more readers, and members.

    • Truthfully it would really be nice if if it just a review on the movie. But it is an international movie or an anime related movie? Reading your post makes me already know the story though. Please input “contains spoilers”. 🙂
