A hobby gives us a chance to do something the best we can; but because we're not being paid to do it, no one tells us we're not doing it well enough. My grandfather's hobby was collecting. He collected coins and stamps and guns and clocks. I didn't get the collector gene. The three, glass hearts on the coffee table aren't a collection - two looked
617: Who Put The Ow In Wedding Vow
Who knew the "for better or for worse" part of my wedding vows would get better and better? When you're opposites, one spouse supposedly balances the other. I don't think so. If you're deaf, it affects your balance. If you're deaf to the beliefs and needs of your partner, wouldn't it affect the balance of your marriage? John and I may have been opp
618: Who Put U In Restaurants
Who knew that 46.4% of the average American's food dollar is spent in restaurants? Our lives have gotten so hectic we don't have time to defrost dinner or put something in the microwave.

619: Who s The Weaker Sex

Women are built to propagate

623: An Eye for an Apprentice
First impressions count and it's a well known fact that we judge people within the first seven seconds of meeting them. Whether we like them, trust them or even want to keep talking to them is all determined in a very short space of time. If this is the case, then why has Alan Sugar, TV's favourite belligerent son, taken twelve weeks to whittle dow
624: Are Sitters An Endangered Species
I am one of the lucky ones. I work at home. My commute is less than thirty seconds and I'm much less likely to spill Starbuck's coffee on my lap. However, all house and no play makes for the occasional need of a sitter - but where have all the sitters gone?
Sitters seem to have become an endangered species. The bald eagle is an endangered speci
625: Are You An Optimist
How do I know I'm an optimist? I know because I meet the three, most obvious requirements. I got out of bed this morning, I'm married and I have children.

629: Avoiding The Shimmy Shake While Taking A Picture
Very few people have a completely steady hand when they hold their camera. Movement is natural, and shaking while taking a picture can be awful for the outcome and what you are left with. Camera movement is the most common cause of blurry pictures. How can you stop the shaking?
If you are like me, I bought a digital camera with image stabilizati
