    Opinions on trans-atlantic Air Canada Rouge

    I just flew back from Venice with them but I was upgraded to business class so not too sure that I can help you. Here are my observations: The cabin crew were young and very friendly and attentive. The food was dismal. Drink service/ water was frequent. There are no TVs in the back...

    Burnt kettle bottom--how to clean

    Ok this is going to sound weird but it worked for me when I first started cooking for myself as a young woman. I burned something SO badly that I thought it would never get clean. What I did was wash it as best I could and then put it in a cupboard and forgot about it. When I got it out a...

    Give me your best job interview advice?

    I don't know if it's true or not but people say you can tell when someone is talking on the phone lying in bed in their PJs. So just to be sure, I would have her put on her interview clothes and sit up straight with a smile on her face. It can't do any harm and might put her in the right frame...

    Saturday Night Live

    I think it's hilarious! Ever since Tina Fey and Amy Poeller (sp) were on it and I think it's still great. Not all of it of course but a lot of it.

    What is the Best Way to get the New iPad?

    It dosn't go on sale until 5pm (at least at the Apple stores, not sure about WM and BB etc) so you don't have to worry about lining up all night or before the store opens. We plan to get to there around 12pm to line up. When the first iPad launched, DH got there half an hour before the...

    If it weren't for bad luck.....

    Wow, that is stinky! I know that all the things that are going on really suck but sometimes focusing on the positives can help you lift your mood you know? Like not only do you have great kids, but they have a roof over thier heads and food on the table and get to do great activities like...

    quick help needed re attire

    Hi friends, I'm headed out to watch a pro basketball game soon and don't know what to wear! Is jeans with a t-shirt and sneakers appropriate? They are very expensive seats if that matters but not a box. DH says I can wear jeans but it should be a 'nice' top. I asked him if he meant a...

    Rental Car locations at Port Canaveral

    I have used Enterprise with good results. We also used Budget once but they tried to stick us with a bogus $200 charge a couple of months after the rental. We had to dispute it with Visa and won but it was a huge PITA.

    I just have to say i find military wives and girlfriends

    For the price people pay to have flowers delivered ON valentine's day, if they did not arrive on time, I would be hopping mad too! But there is no need to take it out on you.

    Do you drink V-8 juice (or similar)?

    Like the pp said, V8 has mega sodium in it and that is not good for your health. You should get at least 5 fruit and veg a day and so your regimen is not enough. Have you really tried EVERY vegetable several times, and they ALL make you feel sick? If so, I would talk to your Dr about...

    Woman kidnapped as a newborn reunited with birth parents

    Wow! I had heard this story too but not the part that the person who raised her was an abusive drug addict. I had sort of hoped she had had a nice childhood, how naive! I have not heard mention of charges for the kidnappers, I wonder if that will happen or if there is a statute of limitations...

    disney baby shower ideas!!!!!!

    Just by the way, you are not supposed to plan your own baby shower. Probably because you will be receiving gifts so if you plan your own it looks like a gift grab. Anyway, here are a couple of games that I have done at showers and maybe you can fit Disney in somehow: A quiz of what baby...

    Anyone use Oscillococcinum (Ocillo)??

    I haven't used that one but have used Coryzalia (same type of remedy, same brand but for colds not the flu) to excellent effect. I usually suffer for about a week with a cold, with 2-3 days being very miserable then I have a cough for at least a week after. I have used Coryzalia about 3...

    Can I have a hysterectomy and not miss work?

    Ask your doctor of course but I think it is sort of like pay now or pay later ie take a rest now and recover nicely or do too much at first and suffer later from haemorrhage or infection or pain. It is a big surgery even if it can be done as outpatient.
