Eggs are high in cholesterol, but it is good cholesterol and as such eggs are good for you. On the other hand, pairing them with bacon is bad, because bacon is bad for you on a number of fronts. But bacon tastes so good...

It makes more sense to make a hero of someone who can save your life, rather than one who just looks good.

I love these deep philosophical debates ...I would only eat either of them if it was the last food source on Earth and I hadn't eaten in a few days...

lt's pretty sad that people count the stranger they share the life's with as friends. lt must be lonely

I already almost entirely do. I am no techno genius, nerd or particularly "modern" but I find I can manage my money better, I pay all my bills electronically (is that "digitally"?), have numerous accounts (with the same bank) and divide my income between them for specific reasons (Utilities, phone, rates etc.) so the money is always there when a bill is due. All my grocery buying is done using a Debit card.

I tyan very easily - thanks to my Indian Heritage all mixed ip with my Irish-Spanish blood. As my Dad used to say: I am a real mongrel!

We call my husband's son - who - is a gifted "jack of all trades" and take him out to dinner as a "thank you!"

My son is 26 years old and up until today I can still recall when he was 5 months old and I was trying to teach him to say Papa instead he would say papaw, it was so funny to hear.

Not for me . I have a couple of Company\u2019s that produce gold and the dividends are enough for me.

Sure as hell felt safer driving around in my 1957 Chev compared to my 2009 VE Commodore. Older cars were made of real steel and made to last, new cars are just throw away items hence why they have the safety of the air bags etc etc.

AI will pose challenges to civilization and people, as did the Industrial Revolution in the 19th Century or the introduction of computers in the workplace. AI is an extension of this, and it will be interesting to see how people and the workplace will change.

I do like the way the British do their series such as Midsomer Murders, The Bill, Heartbeat etc. Also like crime shows that actually show the real people at the end of the movie that has been shown. I only watch movies of real life stories and find them very interesting.

every fortnight I check in with my bottle of Woodford reserve [double oaked] he says I am doing fine and see you in 2 weeks, occasionally if I have any doubts I might check in with the cc a dry 10-pack or carton in between appointments and I am generally reassured

There are people I love, but certainly don't trust because of this very issue. Trust is an important but easily broken thing.

Sample the options right in your area that you never thought of doing before. You can stay at home but each day plan to do something different and explore what has always been there but you were too busy to notice until now. You get to pick 3 things and so does he.

Can't go by putting a few drops of eucalyptus oil in a bowl of hot water and putting your head over it, covering yourself with a towel and inhaling deeply for a while. Then off to bed with a hot lemon juice and honey drink. Stay hydrated. Rest up, eat a balanced diet, laugh lots and get some sunshine if you can.

Growing up, we made an Easter basket at school and received small eggs from the Easter bunny, Easter is about other things than chocolate. These days children seem to get too much and don’t appreciate what they receive. Maybe the should learn the true meaning of Easter

I get too annoyed with tradies who don't seem to care much about how they do it - I do as much as possible myself and I have become very professional

How lovely for you. I do not have any contact with my grand children and have never met 2 of them. Family dynamics can be sad sometimes.

Us oldies haven't a clue what that's all about most of us are still trying to work out how to use a mobile. I prefer to pay cash ar paypal

I am so lucky my kids are grown up with families of their own. I am so proud of all parents who had to fill this void, I would have never been able to cope,

I don't get attached to things (I get attached to people)! At this point in my life - I never had to hocked ANYTHING (I never had to use a pawn shop) - hopeful, this trend will continue until the day I die! It goes without saying, I don't judge people who do use pawnshops, however - I judge pawn shop owners (since the the majority of pawnshops are located in the poorest section of a city)!

It is quite often that they will overload your bag and it is dry heavy to put in and out of your trolley. Of course they want to serve and scan quickly and packing takes time. But the supermarkets need have more staff at checkouts and then we all win.

I am grateful for whatever I receive because it means that person thought of me. Its the thought that counts

Personally I think your relationship needs sorting out. What sort of relationship leads to a smashing of an XBox. Think it's time both of you sorted out what you want in a relationship before you start buying expensive gifts. In the next argument it may be one of you being hurt.

Genetic modification will allow people to live longer but when your number is up, it’s up. Perfectly healthy people die for no reason....except maybe the Force wants your story back....lol

I wear whatever makes me feel comfortable,happy,stylish and sometimes sexy lol basically whatever my mood is on the day,I wear something to match that unless I am just blobbing out at home on the couch,well then that's a PJ day..You won't find any designer labels in my wardrobe though,i'm not that rich.

No but I want to try it once only. After that I don't want any further emails, marketing etc, I want to see what it it like to satisfy my curiousity

You put message on the board so expect this. If you want privacy send a card. More time spend, but it's more personal

We have 6 grandchildren, aged 5- 18. We have given them blocks, books, dolls and truck as presents for them to take home. I have always made up a box of things to do when they are at our place . A new board game, craft , paints and an outside toy or basketball etc

I really don\u2019t like the fact that my phone is listening to my conversations and Facebook is tracking my likes. I prefer to look up products that I need myself.

My wife is 5 years older than me. When we had been together for a year and it came to asking her to marry me she found out then. I don't think that's a lie but she just assumed I was older. She still married me though and we've been married for 46 years.

I don't have anyone to play with, so if I play any games it's usually on the ipad like rewardia. I loved monopoly, cluedo, trivial pursuit and trouble

Jesus, and family and friends, I have been truly blessed through thick and thin,,, I have always had the best influence.

in my humble opinion, we all have biased since it is our opinion based on our perceptions,which are also biased

I do most of these now but I'm just wondering what a Water Butt is. We have 3 rainwater tanks and use that to give fresh water to my birds and to water the garden.

I use it most of the time instead of a computer. I download and read books, do banking, play games, do surveys, take and edit photos, send texts and emails, research products, order products, watch videos, listen to music, read the news, find recipes and craft patterns, learn French and Chinese, book tickets and accommodation and ask questions about anything I want to know. That takes up most of my day! I very rarely use it to ring people.

I enjoy my own company, but if a friendly person wanted to eat with me and it felt right I'd be okay with that.

Live is too short to bear grudges and families are so important so just put on a brave face and enjoy

Recycle as much as possible Office Works accepts a lot of tech things, batteries, ink cartridges etc and our council has a free tech and electronic product drop off once a year

My mum was such a good friend when i was older, she collapsed and died in my arms of a brain embolism on xmas eve 1999. The pain eases but the hurt is still there. Always take the time to tell your freinds and family how much you love them.

Have not seen my family in QLD for 2 years. And maybe at Xmas time,but the premier of QLD has changed her mind so many times -- often over very silly events --

In my experience doctors have not been too good at detecting health issues, including some major ones. Given that, a toilet that provides health data could be an advantage.

There is no such a thing as corrupt nation. And no, the internet cannot start WW3. People can. People can prevent it as well. That’s what I think. Think about it.

Many of the old movies are better than some of the rubbish and stories made today. The ne movies could not be classed as entertainment.

Not really for these products (part of life, as has been said here), but I was in line behind someone who was looking - it turned out - for some anti-nit shampoo. When she (or he ;}), got to the counter, the lass behind asked "the person" to speak up then ... practically yelled, "oh, you mean nit-shampoo!"...

oh man all day do people have a sook about a scratch or paint mark, if ya gonna get paranoid over it dont take car soft ass cry baby car out.

It hasn't crept into our vocabulary. If you use it in the wrong context you need to improve your English. What I do hate is when people say tooken instead of taken! We will eventually degenerate into neanderthals again with the horrid grammar, speech and antisocial behaviour around nowadays. Grunt grunt!

If you don't look after it ,it won't look after you. Its generally the second biggest purchase for most people, look after it!!

Have only ever purchased 1 item (as far as I can remember) - got someone else to put it together for me as it was so complicated and takes so long to put it together. The process of finally finding it in the store, selection of the wanted item, collection from the assembly store down the bottom and then getting it paid for, let alone getting it home again is a mission in itself - who has the expertise or energy left to put the item together. Only impetus is saving the $70+ dollars they want for getting someone from their store to assemble it for you. Much prefer to go somewhere else & pay a bit more but get the item in one piece at home. I'm too old to try doing the gymnastics required to assemble the IKEA items.

You cannot use the Netherlands as a comparison, their cities are designed for bicycles not vehicles, wear a helmet, stop being vein!!

Depending on how dirty you are, bathing in your own filth is gross...but clean body in nice hot bath with candles and music is great relaxing therapy!! Showers are good for removing all the dirt period?!??

No I have never needed to, just block weirdos lol.I have friends that have done though for their own reasons.I don't actually spend much time on them like I use to,it get's a bit too much the same old same old ya know what I mean.I really only use it for staying in touch with family and friends that don't live in my city/country.

Probably, drivers now have no idea about lights. A car was following me on a dark night with no lights at all, when we pulled up at the lights I let him know that he didn't have his lights on, he said I can see so why should I put my lights on. I tried to explain that the lights were not for him to see with but for other people to see him. I got the finger, very nice. Knowing about lights on your car should be imperative if you are driving, it might help to lessen the number of accidents we have.

ru kiddin me...u not heard of the new world order....or adrenochrome...child kidnapping etc etc etc

You can bet that any time you are risking your own real money, then the game will be configured to ensure the House will always come out ahead, usually with total disregard for the end condition of the individual players. Therefore; scam.

Perhaps there's a way to do it all, but guess the sacrifice will come from the parents who taxi them to and fro. Once they earn their own money, charge them board, (and maybe bank the money for them to use later) this is a good grounding for going flatting. I had a friend who provided it all and when the child chose to go flatting, the wake up call was nearly more than the child could cope with

I am rather taken with Finland. It is known as the happiest country on earth. Their language is hard to learn I believe. I think I could live there for a few years. It is a year and a half since making a move in my own state and still haven't finished unpacking. No, don't think I could go through it again.

I have twice seen one and I am basically a skeptic about flying saucers and Aliens. However on both occasions neither the Coastguard, Airforce, Police or anyone else can explain the lights I saw, which were brilliant blue when hovering, then flashed green as the zig-zagged back and forth for about 10 minutes over the ancient extinct volcano on our property, before flashing back to brilliant blue and disappearing over the horizon at an incredible speed.. They lit up the sky which woke my daughter on a neighbouring property on the second occasion. On the first occasion I was with about 6 other adults and we all reported our sighting. Several other people reported them on both occasions but we never received any logical explanations. Definitely unidentified flying objects

I'm going to go for something a little different. I would love to holiday in Ireland and spend some time on their wild, windy and cold moors and glens. Who wants to join me? Heehehe

Absolutely these days I would in an instant. You never know what you're going to see happening or happening to you. I'd record an interaction with a law enforcement officer in a heartbeat.

Yes they will close. I watch everything at home on TV. I do not have to see the latest film and most of these are not worth watching anyhow.

No they were offered to you so take them with the generosity they are given. Don't forget to say thank you.

The road is for sharing and you should always be aware of other users and drive to the conditions. Be kind, be careful and if the traffic is slow then be slow or stick to the speed limit. It’s only going to take a few minutes longer….it’s really not that hard….lol

I learnt to use industrial sewing machines at the age of 14 but sadly now I am retired can't afford to buy one so I can continue making and repairing clothing. I also have a really good eye for colours and when we built our last home I knew exactly what I wanted, they told us to allow 3 hours to choose everything, had it all sorted in less than an hour, colour of bricks, roof windows, door plus everything inside. I also had to teach myself how to cook and after 50 plus years married husband still asks where did you get that recipe from.

Years ago a movie was released into the cinemas and played for a few weeks or even months sometimes. Nowadays unfortunately, due to TV, cable TV, internet, netflix etc. they are barely even hitting the cinemas for a week and then hit the smaller screens. This means more and more movies have to be made and sadly many are rubbish. I agree, some are just noise and or trash and often the hype is just PR to get people to pay to watch them. I rarely watch TV and never go to the movies these days. I do not have pay TV either. Give me a good book any day.

New Zealand would be my ideal holiday destination. I have been wanting to go back for ages to see all of my friends and family. Always lots of activities or events to explore.

My sanity - unfortunate - I reside in the land of idiots (USA) - the overwhelming majority of the population - still thinks COVID-19 is a government cover up - the good old days (before the pandemic) are not coming back - not anytime soon!!

this whole discussion is based on personal opinion - i am a size 8 and find it offensive when people say i starve myself - or thin shame me (yes it happens often) - i am naturally this size i eat a lot, i exercise too and stay same size and think as long as you are happy in yourself it shouldn't matter what size you are - whatever words used can be offensive if we let them - i choose to smile and let it go

When we were scammed out of our life savings of $53,500 whilst building a new house we ended up with a mortgage and having to do all the landscaping ourselves so it is an ongoing thing, we just try and set out what needs doing the most and tackle it day by day.

Working in the Workers Compensation Department in an insurance company. Some weird stories told in there.

If you truly believe in God, you will realise why people get married. Marriage is a type of Christ and his bride, and when Christ returns he will take those who believe in him to be his bride, and they will live with him in bliss and everlasting joy for eternity. You see, the Bible teaches that the kingdom of God will be on earth. In the meantime by being married we are glorifying God who wants us to be faithful to our partner in this life, just as we must be faithful to God. Marriage is a big commitment but it is very worthwhile from a scriptural point of view.

Hi Elizabeth T, please tell me what the hell did we do before the internet, we went to the shops, we were fitter, and we just go on with things without whining, make that special trip, you might find that there is a world beyond your computer screen, everything does not have to be convenient, to many people are just using co-vid as an excuse to do nothing, yes it's serious, but Australians can fight anything, walk away from the screen, it will not jump off the desk or your lap to kill it self, and the walk will do you good

I don't think it should be banned,if it is going to be banned then all contact sport should be banned.They just need to be wearing the right protection like helmets and mouth guards.

Caring about what others think makes me happy, because I enjoy caring. I don't live as a hermit, I live in a community....so everything that other people do or think affects me either directly or indirectly. If you are asking solely about whether my choices are based on what other people think about my choices..... then that is very different conversation. Do I care that someone I know hates it when I wear read. No I don't, because I enjoy wearing red. Do I care that my mother disapproves of me not visiting her more than I do...yes I do care...because I don't want her to feel sad or lonely. Different situations result in different levels of 'do I care'. You can't lump them all under one heading and ask do you care or do you not....because it depends totally on what the situation or issue is. .

Not heard any news here. I don't believe in aliens per se but life on other planets is a possibility but in microbe form etc. Can't see some form of intelligent life as we have if you can call us that as we came about by circumstances that would not be repeated elsewhere. A spec of dust or a microbe started us off. I think the Governments are doing OK although some not so much. We are having a pandemic and they are in a fine balancing act trying to save peoples lives and also their livelihoods. This virus is so virulent and we have the idiots who just don't get it going about and spreading it more. Everyone stay safe, follow the simple rules of social distancing, quarantining if necessary, get tested if sick or asked, do not shake hands or hug, do not gather in groups etc. If everyone did this together we would probably not have the situation in Victoria, NSW and now it seems in Queensland.

If they care for one another there is nothing wrong. If it is for money then it is wrong. Money does not bring happiness. Sometimes the opposite.

No. Children are a part of every day life whether they belong to a family and are grandchildren or great grand children. They bring joy to the family.

I don’t feel comfortable posting pictures of my children online, but I am the only parent I know who doesn’t do it.

Nah, traffic is fine with me. I have experienced being stuck for 3-4hours in the middle of the road and I can’t even stop by for a pee. Hahaha.

I think it also a desensitivity to violence in general with constantly seeing increasingly realistic imagery of people being raped or blown up or stabbed/gutted with knives. Then, the lights/bells/whistles that go off when you might kill another being (in a game) to win the round or whatever, makes violence a thing to be used to maybe get ahead of the game in real life. Sadly, I think many of these ultra violent/realistic type games were/are designed to do this. When you stab someone to death, they don't really die- they just come back at you in the next round. If you do this countless times then you very well may in some small way expect the same to occur in real life, especially if you haven't yet fully developed a brain that can tell the difference (fully) between RL and a game situation or scene. Bully or brutish behaviour, towards women say, if very often associated with heroism. The 'hero' of the round got to be the hero because he just shot 25 "bad guys" up with an AK47. 7 and 8 year olds may hav

Have not rented movies or any TV series on YouTube and why would you?? There are free movie channels around, some of which show TV content so why pay for something when there is no need?

Also if that was the case then something like meals on wheels would do that if it was legal and same as our nursing homes but they don't as you can get in trouble plus with the technology today nothing goes undected they can even test our sewerage .but years ago before we had all this technology it might have happened like maybe 25 to 30 yrs ago as things were not very strict then either.

I do not keep up with workmates from my one previous job (which I retired from). Only one shift (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM - got two 15-minute breaks and a half-hour for lunch (I worked a total of eight hours on each workday). In addition, I was the only minority in a huge office - were I worked for thirty years. We did not have one thing in common with each other - we did not socialize with each other on the job, and we did not socialize with each other on weekends (we did not work weekends) or on holidays (we got holidays off - with pay). Only four things I actually liked about my federal civil service job - the pay, job advancement opportunities, I got sick leave and annual (vacation) leave, and I got to wear jeans too work every day. I do not miss my workmates - but I DEFINITELY miss not getting paid every two weeks (on a Tuesday) :-))! I now get paid - on a monthly basis (bummer).

2 RSPCA recuse dogs who are now elderly as they have been living with us 8 and 9 years as they were adopted a year apart.

I was never into salads, but a lot of kids used to take salads with beetroot. The beetroot juice would turn the whole salad purple - even the cheese! It always grossed me out, but the kids who brought it always said it was good. I've got a friend who packs this for her work lunch.

Yes I have used it and wish i had done more and understood it better. Nothing one learns is ever wasted. Understanding such concepts comes up in unexpected ways.

Since COVID -19 restrictions I’m definitely high vibe,I’ve been riding my bike for one hour each day & loving it, as I ride I say good morning to dozens of people who are walking their dogs it is a great feeling to be alive.

I decided to get a spiral perm in 1991. The poor hairdresser took five hours to complete it. The sun had gone down and I was still in her chair lol. I booked over the phone and when I went in she was surprised. My hair was past my butt and it's thick (but I did prewarn her over the phone). She deserved her $250 and I went to work the next day and was called telephone cord and poodle, but I liked it.

Only a geek would ask a question lie this, when has it not been better for kids to play outside, back in your cupboard geek.

This one as it will be the first in decades where I will not be working during this period at all and can spend time with my family instead of working 50 hours a week.

As with any debate, you need to be respectful of the opinion of others. In order to form an opinion, be informed. If the topic bothers you too much and you feel threatened or angry, just scroll on.

Summer every time for me. I left England because I was severely sick almost every winter with colds, flu, bronchitis and allergies. I then found I could not tolerate Melbourne winters as I was so miserable and sick. After moving to Queensland I was diagnosed with SADS (Seasonal Adjustment Disorder Syndrome) meaning my body cannot cope with changing climate extremes. I also have a lung disease which is now able to be treated and responds so well to warm/hot weather. I can cope, although not happily, with the few weeks of winter we have here.

Stones. Used to go to a gig they played in London when I was a teen remember Mick on the door collecting half-crowns entry fees.

Yes i love pineapple on my pizza, as i can dream that i am on a deserted island eating my pineapple on my pizza.

Some are good, most are Teens preening. This thing about China, : "leaked" from Trump. Do you really believe him?

....is it um, let's see...I know...racist to buy a white kettle? Get a grip people. Aren't we better than this?

No such thing as CD's when I was a child. My father worked for Lee Gordon, if anyone else is old enough to remember him. Lee Gordon was a promoter who brought artists out to Australia and would hand out photo's and 78RPMH records which my father would bring home for me. So I got to hear Jimmy Rogers, The Kaylen Twins and The Everley Brothers to name a few. When I was older I was much in demand as a babysitter and one couple I babysat for had a large collection of records and I got to hear Johnny Matthis, The Platters and other artists from the '50's but by the time I wanted to buy records such as The Beatles, Searchers and Bilyl Thorpe and The Aztecs there were 45's and 331/3 or LP's. I think the first CD I bought was Michael Jackson. I did start replacing my LP's with CD's but when it came time to toss Tommy by The Who and the Beatles white album I couldn't do it and decided to keep them all. Every now and then I'll give one or 2 a spin, some date back to the sixties and I still love them but I also have many of them in CD form as well.

No-one for no-one can match my style, my looks, my intelligence - I'm joking for there are many many people who are better looking and more intelligent but none are better than me!

Are you serious with this topic of the day? Santa does not exist, he was invented by the Coke company hence the red and white colours and the black belt is the Coke.
