    Do you own a horse?

    I have horses and askgrandma is definitely right that they are a lot of work. Something to consider when entertaining the idea of owning a horse is that they will be living in a barn or a paddock or a pasture and you will need to be out in all sorts of weather to care for them. I guess what I'm...

    Mosquito Maddness

    I just can't take it anymore! I cannot find anything that works well to keep mosquitoes away from me and I am so frustrated.

    Zipper Bags

    You are fortunate, Kernow. Living here in the States I have to agree with Buster and the no skimp philosophy. I would be hard pressed to trust my cell phone or a wallet to the store brands that we have here.

    Stuffed jalapeno peppers

    What do you think about dog hunting?

    It has been mentioned a couple of times that people who use their dogs for hunting purposes don't take care of them well, generally speaking. Why is this? Of course, it is a generalization. I have known a couple of people who do not fall into this category, but many that I have come across do...
