You must be kidding. What about Mexican tacos? These are wonderful in my neighborhood (in L.A. County).

Good list. However, Pasadena doesn't let people park in front of their house, OR in their driveway. So, they have a fence half-way up between the driveway, and the sidewalk. (At least this was so when I went to visit a political friend.)

Well, as you can plainly see on this post, As I am going to whether or not you want me to, so it is up to you whether or not you read the following: I have two admirers on either side of my house. One, Gus (the families youngish grandfather), was getting way too aggressive, as in ringing my doorbell at 6:00am in the morning. So, I called the cops to tell him to leave me alone (which they did

Why does it matter? We are here, and then we die. However, at least in my case, I have been visited by too many of my relatives that have died, not to believe that there is life beyond physical death--including by my father-in-law, who was an atheist. My question: In that we use phony names on this site, will we get a chance to know each other in the next world?

I never knew that! How insane. Where do you think he ranked in heaven when he died---or did he end up going down, instead of up?

Nil--except a pair of sandals, that are too big for me, and trinkets, such as a new lipstick tube. Also, too "easy cook" books, which I plan to give to my granddaughters. Thanks for asking.

I also love trains, and am familiar reg. same, as both my father and grandfather earned their living working at the L.A. train station. My grandfather as Sheriff re. passenger affairs (coming or going), and my father as manager in the office. A lot of Mexicans did the labor there, and they really liked my father as he spoke fluent Spanish (which he learned when they lived about 2-3 blocks fr

I have a lemon and orange tree in my back yard. As it turns out, they are a gift that keeps on giving. That is to say, I give them to my family, my neighbors, my mailman, the two ladies who clean my house--and anyone else who rings my doorbell. Even so, the two trees look as though they have never been picked of their fruit. I have thought about putting them in a box, and leaving them a

More information: I haven't been back to church since this affair took place, except to go to my daughter's ward, when her daughter was speaking to the congregation regarding her up-coming mission call. I am also on the list to be visited by a female "minister" (such as the visiting sisters are called now-a-days). I haven't met her yet, but I understand she is a lawyer. Should b

I think Putin doesn't give a rats'--d-m regarding the tragedy he is causing those poor souls who's power forces of his are coming in contact with. I don't say for him, "Rest in Piece", but I hope it's mighty hot where he is going, with no-way out.

I attended a family party out of my state. A relative of the hosts (and also a High Priest, and others were present). As it turned out, this VIP had left Utah to come to California, where my Stake was having a special mtg. reg. me, as to whether or not I was an apostate, or at least, should be tried on this issue. One of the twelve priesthood holders who were present, with an eleventh member

Sorry for the previous mistaken spelling. I haven't worn a dress since I can't remember how long. Last time I went to church was to hear my granddaughter's talk regarding her upcoming mission. (I wore my best slacks and one of my best blouses.) Old friends were very friendly, and made a point to say hello and shake my hand. :-) PS: I ain't seen any clothes yet.

She sounds like a shovinest, as she takes such pride in herself for what she does for a living. Too each his or her own? No, imo, this is far beyond that, as she is so proud of herself and what others might think about her. I think (again) that she is, simply stated, looking for others to notice her, and hoping they will pass judgment on her so she can glote more over her self. To me, she

To me, it sounds like a couple trying to make a dishonest living by providing nonsense "Personology" checks for those they suspect can be fooled by such nonsense.

Not when you're born into it. It takes quiet a while to disassociate with a lot of good people (never mind about the ones who have their own reasons for staying in the church). Really, I don't think this topic is worthy of being treated with respect, even as most of us (I presume) respect the religions other people attend, such as the Catholic, or Seven Day Adventists.

Lucky me. No males can come to my house, as I live alone. They have come a few times, such as at Christmas, to give me a present--even though they don't come INTO the house.

No Kidding! I'll start with the most recent: 1) I started to go out my kitchen door when I saw an all-white image that looked like a small snow man. It appeared that he couldn't talk or hear me, as I had a metal pan lid on the counter near me, which I picked up and slammed down again, and to which he didn't respond. What did seem to interest him was the inside of my home, as he stretche

Seems to me we had a class in Jr. High school reg. the birds and bees. I remember pretty well, in that I got kicked out of the room when I let out a loud woo-hoo (spl?) whistle. It was all down hill for me from then on. Even so, yes, my father set me down at the kitchen table for a quick lesson--which consisted of his asking me if I knew something about where babies come from, and his very r
