At first glance it seems like a lot of money has been spent on the space program. However, when you look at it in total, many amazing scientific discoveries have been made. Camera phones. Scratch resistant lenses. CAT scans. LEDs. Athletic shoes. Water purification systems. Dust busters. Home insulation. Jaws of Life. Wireless headsets. Memory foam. Baby formula. Artificial limbs. Computer mouse. Portable computers.

Probably will turn the other cheek and forgive but will always be cautious and things between us will never be the same again!

Each person has their own time table. Me, I dated a few guys but after a few I decided it was no longer for me. I have not dated now in over 25 years and happy about it. Some people though like the twosomes. Never listen to other people. If you make a mistake then you own it.

I always wanted to be a Mum. In the process I have been a nurse, a psychologist, a teacher, a companion, a protector, a carer and so much more. It has been my greatest joy and sorrow, but I wouldn't have it any other way. It was just the ass I chose to be their father that was the problem.

Amen to that! I've never worked a job where the women didn't have some kind of problems. Jealousy, envy, prejudice, gossip, who knows. I just know I worked better with men than with women. ;-D

No but as they have an international Women's Day then maybe they should have an International Men's Day. Then don't forget all the other genders that are out there! I agree - way too many "days". Let's just celebrate and respect each other and have peace in the world.

By 'wanton' killing off of other species on this planet - most famous example is the dodo bird - we/humans have been playing GOD for centuries! If evolution actual works, then humans will permanently disappear from the planet - one day. Which will give other species the opportunity to thrive and the planet time to heal itself!

Did you ever wonder? 01. If a bottle of poison reaches its expiration date, is it more poisonous or is it no longer poisonous? 02. Which letter is silent in the word "Scent," the S or the C? 03. Do twins ever realize that one of them is unplanned? 04. Every time you clean something, you just make something else dirty. 05. The word "swims" upside-down is still "swims". 06. Over 100 years ago, everyone owned a horse and only the rich had cars. Today everyone has cars and only the rich own horses. 07. If people evolved from monkeys, why are monkeys still around? 08. Why is there a 'D' in fridge, but not in refrigerator? 09. I'm responsible for what I say, not for what you understand. 10. Common sense is like deodorant. The people who need it the most never use it. 11. My tolerance for idiots is extremely low these days. I used to have some immunity built up, but obviously, there's a new strain out there. 12. It's not my age that bothers me - it's the side effects. 13. I'm not saying I'm old and worn out, but I make sure I'm nowhere near the curb on trash day. 14. As I watch this generation try and rewrite our history, I'm sure of one thing: it will be misspelled and have no punctuation. 15. As I've gotten older, people think I've become lazy. The truth is I'm just being more energy-efficient. 16. I haven't gotten anything done today. I've been in the Fruit and Vegie section trying to open this stupid plastic bag. 17. If you find yourself feeling useless, remember: it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, thousands of lives and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban. 18. I want to be 18 again and ruin my life differently. I have new ideas 19. I'm on two simultaneous diets. I wasn't getting enough food on one. 20. I put my scale in the bathroom corner and that's where the little liar will stay until it apologizes. 21. Hard to believe I once had a phone attached to a wall, and when it rang, I picked it up without knowing who was calling. 22. My wife says I keep pushing her buttons. If that were true, I would have found mute by now. 23. There is no such thing as a grouchy old person. The truth is that once you get old, you stop being polite and start being honest.

I hardly ever eat out whether at takeaways or restaurants, and so I have to cook at home. I buy whatever vegetables are on clearance and I make meals with these and pulses as they're cheap. What I really enjoy is getting the "Red Book" out which I transcribed old family recipes from, which had paper that was falling apart, when I was 10 years old. As it's been almost 50 years since I wrote those recipes down and since the writing is fading away, it is almost time to rewrite the family recipes again and hopefully my children and grandchildren will decide to try them out when I'm gone. There are even recipes which refer to "remove plate from fire" which pre date even my own grandmother. The recipes are easy to make, relatively cheap and taste delicious. I like knowing exactly what is in my food and cooking at home from scratch provides me with something to look forward to eating! Thanks for reading and Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers out there!

I was retrenched after 40 years service. They sent the work to another state but I was not offered a transfer at all although they were already short staffed over there.

Fortunately, I have never been in the scenario you have described - involving children - children make it a more complicated issue to resolve - I don't have children. Hence, I cannot comment on whether COUPLE COUNSELING is worth it - Bonne chance!

Prayers should NEVER be in public schools. Not ever. Church and state should ALWAYS be separate. If you want your kids to be subjected to religion they can do it outside the school system and not waste actual useful education time. What prayers do you suggest ? Baha'i, Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Shinto, Sikhism, Taoism, and Zoroastrianism, Satanism? oh did you mean Christian prayers only ?

As a semi-retired tradie and I have always eaten lunch while I work without stopping due to very unreasonable deadlines. So in general, there is no need to offer lunch as most tradies bring their own or send the apprentice to buy some. But as for me, I have always appreciated the offer of a nice hot coffee.

Yes I have been and it was the most scary of times. I was taken back to my childhood where something horrendous happened and I now remember it more clearly than before.

It is of course your right to smoke or vape, but do bear in mind that others don't like the smell, so it's best to do it where it won't bother others.

The problem is you americans are under the delusion that you think your country is the greatest thing on this planet when in fact most of the world generally dislikes your country and what it stands for and finds most of you very irritating and quite honestly I couldnt give a rats arse if your country dissolves into anarchy

We have no right to judge anyone as we do not know the complete story. There could be many reasons for a mother to leave, she may be putting her kids first, who knows? It would be such a hard decision. We have not walked in their shoes. Anybody who has made the decision deserves our support as well as the children and other parent. The last thing they need is others judging. How will that help a family?

Haven't felt the need to play as yet. Can remember accompanying my grandma as a teenager quite a few years ago. Boy those old girls would kill to win! All for the prize of a tin of peaches or a packet of biscuits.

I do surveys to receive ecertificates which I use to supplement my grocery purchases because without them I would not eat much. I thank them very much. I also have flybuys and Woolworths cards which I scan every time I shop and these too add up but not as quickly as they used to. I am surprised many people do not use them as the cost is built in and they would probably save much more than I do.

I received my licence at 19 & am now 82, I have never had a speeding ticket, only a small dint in my car in our car park misjudging how close I was to a pole. Another scratch on the front must have been done by someone else when my car was in the shopping centre. Will have to go for my license in three years & not looking forward to it, my husband is due for the second time he passed there last one in flying colours. How many young people with have a record like this, all my children & now grandchildren have been picked up mostly for speed limit fortunately not drink driving, one G Child lost his license for three months after loosing all his points, was rather expensive , fines as well as difficulty in getting to work.

Music is always a mood changer for both good and sad moods. I always say that music is a time line of our lives.We can hear a song And mostly remember the year or period of our lives.

weddings are too expensive you can have a cheaper wedding there are so many options the op shops have so many dresses

yes had a survey question can your 13-year-old granddaughter answer some questions,yes,1st question how old are you,13, 2nd question are you bisexual close survey immediate response just dumb

Yet I always ask who will be servicing the bot especially if it breaks down. Humans can never be replaced.

I would say, selfishness. Only being concerned about what they want and what makes them happy. Couldn't care less about what the other partner wants or needs, doesn't care about the children. Some how I found myself married to such a person, the marriage officially lasted 12 years.

Ice cream is the 8th wonder of the world, I have a shelf dedicated to ice cream in my freezer, You can celebrate/commiserate wins and losses,It is the ultimate answer when the kids are in dispute it also helps with falls,It is a great reward for anything that needs a reward, there are so many ways you can eat it, It is a wonderful product heaven sent

Is this your first baby or do you have others you need somebody to help with the care of them? Having visitors is tiring so you may need to set a time limit for everybody, unless maybe they offer to help with various household chores and you may be able to grab some rest while baby is asleep. I'm sure things like doing the washing would be helpful even better if you can sort it to the point of which room it goes in.............I would be grateful for casual help if it is a c-section as there is a lot of things you are not supposed to do......... That's when you need a granny flat to evict them to.

Maybe it's time to remember that country people need bigger vehicles to successfully run their farms, be they meat, fruit, vegetable or other. Without our rural industries the NZ economy would be in a total mess. And of course you are right, big vehicles don't fit in little car-parks and rural people do not go out of their way to annoy town-people so let's just be a little more tolerant please

Working fine for me on Mac OS X 10.13 (High Sierra). Just very slow to actually play, as with most of the games on here.

This is all BS. Climate change is created by elites in private jets to bring about your obedience due to fear. You've never even been on a farm I would guess. They don't want farms they want to feed you insects instead. Wake up.

The people who complain about such things as being "revenue gathering", etc. are usually just the morons who want to do stupid things on the road. Public roads are not a playground - follow the rules or get off the roads! It's very very simple: if you don't do anything wrong, then you won't have to pay any fines / penalties.

Laugh at them because, no matter how fast they go, they usually end up at a red light! I just pull up next to them and smile, thinking about how much emotion and gasoline they wasted to get nowhere faster! LOL! ;-D

I am ambidextrous. I was forced while in school to choose either one not both. This was hard for me growing up, yet through the years, I grew up I would practice with both hands, while not in school. So glad I never let these teachers stumble me into only using one hand. \ud83d\ude01

There was a discussion on the radio the other day about kids "wanting" to do various activities, the parents paying for it, and then the kid quickly pulling out again ... sports, dancing, scouts / girl guides, horse riding, etc. Before paying any full term / year fees (often non-refundable because you're taking up a spot and the classes cannot start again to catch-up a later fill-in), you should find somewhere that either offers pay-per-lesson prices or even gives a free trial. That way you can find out if the kids *really* wants to do it or not before paying out huge piles of money.

If it's a sunny day and you don't feel like going out that's OK, make sure to open some windows a little for some fresh air and let the sunshine filter in. Play some music, I find it takes my mind off the immediate problem , just aim for upbeat styles. I mix up my favourite drink usually an iced coffee around lunchtime... or a cup of tea always good and calming. If you like to cook make something to treat yourself or you could share with a friend or neighbour? You could concentrate on a quiz show and pat yourself on the back whenever you get one right ! Drink water.. may sound odd but being dehydrated could make you feel worse and be giving you a headache .l just try and do the small things that I can do or feel like doing in such times . Any little bit helps oh and call a friend for a laugh is always the best medicine of course ! Best wishes Tania \ud83d\ude42

I can't think of anything worse. A baby is a gift from god, not something made to order. This is almost as bad as the people who have an abortion when they find out the baby's sex isn't what they want. I can understand a parents hesitation if they have an inherited disease which they don't want to pass on, but designing hair and eye colour, pretty disgusting. Perhaps people who care more about what the baby looks like instead of being grateful for one in good health don't deserve a baby.

I agree with most people.Health and Family are important and life is too short to have arguments and issues with people as you never now what is around the corner.Our family have just lost our 31 year old daughter in September 2023 after a 12 months battle with cancer.Now besides our own grieving we have to deal looking after her 9 year old daughter and trying to explain that mummy loved her and she will be watching over her always.Hugs your loved ones and tell them every day that you love them

If you give an opinion and get trolled, dont answer back, stop reading comments and leave the site. Go get fresh air and communicate with real friends. Dont give these people any satisfaction.

With all the violence now seemingly able to reign supreme in medium and large cities without much judicial action to prevent it happening again, you couldn't PAY me enough to go and live in a city! With digital learning now prevalent in all higher learning institutions you can get a degree online. The same would apply, IMHO, with respect to professional development being available by ZOOM or another digital interface. I live in a small country town in NSW Australia of 800 people. Im on the edge of town heading into the bush. The nearest regional shopping zone is 45 minutes west or a one hour trip east. The milky way is so beautiful on a clear moonless night and I might hear a truck and a ute bringing the guys who've been pig or Roo hunting back through town as they have their radio blaring, but sometimes you can hear a pin drop all night long until the birds start waking up in the trees outside my bedroom window. I usually get up then and await the rising sun just like now. I choose the birds and brisk fresh air over pollution and blaring horns, inpatient people, rudeness, theft and other more dangerous crimes and I am grateful that I can watch it on the news programs but I don't have to live it! Give me a home among the gum trees over concrete structures any day! Thanks for reading.

I know that it is hard for single mothers to stay home to look after their sick children but it is not fair to other children who are open to catching the sickness. I don't know the answer!

Can not assistance you in your query! I don't do surveys at rewardia.com - anymore - not worth it for me!

I guess they are trying their luck with a low ball offer to see if they can get lucky. The buyers want to get a lower price to reduce mortgage or if flipping have more funds to renovate. Also agree a lot of people want to walk into a house that\u2019s done up and ready to move into but they should expect to pay more if they want something like that. Keep firm in the asking price if it\u2019s comparable to others in the area and it\u2019s a reasonable asking price. Hope it works out.

Helpful hints: They ask you to be honest...however... if they ask you are you considering buying a new car soon...the answer is always yes..... If they ask you if you have been to Japan or intend to go there...the answer is yes..... Do you want to get up to your bum in debt?...the answer is yes These aren't surveys...they are fishing for customers...making up fake surveys is an almost free way of finding customers...they don't care or even interested in what you think

I'm in my 70's and when l rode my bike in my youth we were not allowed to ride on the foot path. It was against the law. So why are they ride on foot paths now. They are called FOOT PATHS.

Wow ,nothing so scary as that . The sleeping Arabs at Tehran airport with their turbans were a bit of a shock as an 11yr old from down under I would say ,, apart from that I was suprised in Fiji at having to say Bula ( hello) to everyone basically from the airport security ,cleaners ,police in their long skirts ... everyone! At first I was getting exhausted from it a bit . And they will eyeball you coming your way too so you don't miss the opportunity. Kids waving out of the buses with no windows iin them while you're driving next to them "Bula !" ,, When I got back here I missed it, I walked past someone in my own street ,they just looked down kept walking by .. usual city behaviours ..

shoes do not make the person, however, if they are comfortable, they can improve the personality. . .

NO I HAVENT CHANGED WHAT I EAT I COULD NOT GO WITHOUT MY MEAT AND IT HELPS THE FARMERS BECAUSE I GROW UP ON A FARM AND I GET MY MEAT FROM LOCAL FARMERS I KNOW ITS GOOD

I recently became a certified master composter in NJ, I learned so much about recycling and the costs these facilities have to pay. If they don't make money to cover their employees and the overhead they will shut down. Now that China won't take our recycling we have a huge problem. We use the items and we have a responsibility to get rid of the left over from the product. I am 1 of 6 people who are involved in collecting soft plastics for the Trex Co (plastic decking materials, etc.) and for every 1,000 pounds we collect we get a very nice bench. We are a small 55+ community and in 1 year we have collected 2 tons of plastic!!!! Win-win, cha-ching!!!!

Pet hate for me this one \u2026.!! I never arrive unannounced and expect the same \u2026. Please don\u2019t bring people I don\u2019t know. 20 years I\u2019ve been here on my own half dozen people know where I live. I like it like that ..definitely a hermit here \u2026. Maybe I should put that on my gate \u2026.!!

Naval intelligence. Since when did my belly button become such a smartie? Yes, this is a joke before someone explain that it's not....

When I worked at a supermarket they would have a 10 items for 10 dollars sale. That would be 1 dollar for each item. But here is the thing, some items were 89 cent at the regular price. we employees would tell certain customers this and they would tell others.

Have I got a story for you! Forced to retire at 62 because my "husband" took my car, I started drawing Social Security, until he demanded it too. Left without my car and my money, I spent 3 1/2 years "imprisoned" by him, unable to even buy groceries. He took me out once a day to a Mexican restaurant where I ate everything I could and I went up to 208 pounds on my 5'4" body. In 2013 he moved me to WA state where we were to retire together, but he left me at the Navy Lodge on base like a bag of garbage and he returned to Texas. They let me stay from May 21 to July 3 when I was evicted owing over $3000! Well, I went back to work at age 66 and retired, again, at age 72, when COVID-19 hit. I saved up over $10,000 in those 6 years, now living on Social Security, Section 8 housing, food stamps (EBT card), grants for electricity and a $30 discount for the internet! I now weigh 135 pounds, am 5'2" (yes, we do shrink!), and am healthier and happier than I've been in my life! Yes, I still have my savings and am allowed to have it! AND, I went to the government and got my permanent military ID card WITHOUT my "husband"! God is Great! God is Good! ;-D

In Australia long ago we made our own products and they lasted decades now a kettle may last a year if you are lucky. We rely too much on other Countries inferior products and yes it all ends up in land fill

I do editing and proofreading for work, and I never correct spelling and grammar when I’ve not been asked to do so. I think it is rude and can be a form of bullying and belittling someone. If the spelling or grammar is wrong but the meaning is clear, there’s no need to annoy the writer with corrections. And if no one ever made mistakes, I would have a lot less work!

Weirdly enough.. Untangling cords. My kids think it's funny. My hands just twist and gently pull tangled cords apart without much thought. 3 sets if Earphones, untangled in under a minute. They were a mess. Xmas lights.. easy! I get secret joy from it all too! My secret weird superpower (well..close to!)

Wow. Thanks. Another good TV series to add to the list. And available on Prime. Great! Suranne Jones is wonderful. Saw her in Vigil, Gentleman Jack and Scott and Bailey. Other TV shows I have found - 'the apple never falls', 'Blackshore', 'Boat Story', 'Boy swallows' universe' (read the book 1st), 'Cobra' (now SE3), 'Maryland' (Suranne Jones), 'masters of the air', 'Ripper Street', 'Scrublands', 'The Chelsea Detective', 'The Gentlemen' (watch the Guy Ritchie movie 1st), 'acceptable risk' (1st), then 'hidden assets' (2nd) 'marcella', 'high country' (still filming - finished by end of April) .... just to start with. Currently watching 'The Tunnel' and 'Population 11'

My friends jealous because my puppy is better looking than hers .. we are both still besties and always will be ..

I frequently donate but I dislike being guilted into giving at the cash register or Drive-thru window.

death, unfortunately, does separate some families we lost 5 people over the COVID-19 years, it does make it tough and I feel for you, people I think avoid you because they have no idea what to say or how to act, distance creeps in and routines change leaving people behind, can i suggest writing letters, making phone calls and let your family know where you are, how you are, hopefully, things work out and new beggings can start I wish you well, i have been through it , I see my brother weekly now instead of every Christmas, because of phone calls sending letters and we have a new beginning he was going through similar troubles when his wife died but is reinvigorated. I hope you have an ok easter and again if you can't call write a letter, even if you don't send it it will serve you well

They made up the rules and structure all monies to their own benefit maybe we should vote on these issues us tax payer support these undeserving people .

The worst thing ever pulled was against my Dad. It would never enter his mind that someone - especially someone who supposedly loved him - could or would ever be so cruel. He and his girlfriend at the time had been talking their future and whether or not they should get married and move in together, selling one of their homes. They always decided no, they both liked their homes and couldn't agree on who would sell. One day this woman came to my Dad and said she's thought about it some more and she will marry him and sell her house. He was happy that they could be together and he could keep the home he'd built for his family. Once she had him totally hooked and getting excited about the prospect of this she goes, "April fool!!". He was humiliated! Shocked! Angry! This was the worst thing playing with his emotions like that. I'm not sure that I've forgiven her for it just yet because I still get angry at her for that when I think about it. Their relationship always had that scar on it and he never again asked her to marry him. They still went out a couple of times a week for a while but he started introducing her to new people as 'my friend' and not 'my girlfriend'. I never liked April Fool's Day because most people don't know how to prank well... putting sugar in the salt shaker is okay but nothing harmful in ANY way... physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. It's just mean and unacceptable.

What a sad scenario from Lawrence. Are you giving vibes that YOU can't be trusted? Every first date, especially when the first flower of youth has long gone is filled with apprehension. On my first date with my now 36 years partner, the poor lad was quivering with anxiety but at least we made it out the gate, had dinner and came home safely. I even let him kiss me goodnight!

It is not the screening out that pisses me off but spending up to 40 minutes providing answers just to be awarded 2 points, even slave labour pays more than that

The Bible reads at John 15:13, "No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his soul (life) in behalf of his friends." At 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 the Bible tells us what love is, and what it is not. If we all followed Bible principles, there would be no hatred, no wars. At Colossians 3:14 the Bible reads, "But, besides all these things, clothe yourselves with love, for it is a perfect bond of union." Jesus Christ loved mankind so much, he died for us! And, in relationships, if everything the man does if for her, and everything the woman does is for him, they will have a happy, peaceful relationship filled with love! Compromise! ;-D

It will be happening this or next Tuesday. Ask Thomas . . all points will be twice to three times higher. .and they will say .Rewardia appreciates your patience on this issue .please enjoy the increase in all points on our site. . Kind Regards . The Rewardia Team

APB you can get things wrong! I thought you were our technical hero - never mind Smile - it's a holiday weekend.

yeah they do write music like that now, and 25 years from now someone else will say the same thing, it all comes down to if you get stuck in some musical era, and never give anything new a chance this is what happens,, today's music is great,, a lot of peoples minds for some reason get stuck like that,,, i check every week for new music,,,, the other thing is CDs sound sux, if y'all listened to that old music on vinyl, you will hear things in songs you never heard before,,,, i saved a lot of my vinyl,, tho i did rip a crapload of CDs, i have since been buying my old music that was on CDs, in vinyl,, the CDs do make great skeet to practice shooting doves,,, \ud83d\ude01

I am struggling with the cost of living, hence do as many Rewardia surveys as possible which I cash in for Woolworths vouchers

I am female and have never desired to be other than the way God created me. I was born from a Union of Two People, One Male and the Other Female and yet many have called me feminine man or \u201cshemale\u201d a coin word I hate and know that that are the feminine men and \u201cshemales\u201d. Now to your question. I am 68 years old and believe me I do not age but slowly will age for aging comes to all who walk and talk and live a life filled with love and caring and always ready to help others in need. My home is far away and I must return or many will suffer the fate of extinction and many more will cease to become flesh and live life on this plane. Earth must be cleansed and many must not live for all desire to have things they really have not much use for and all desire to live long lives and many will not live long merely 20-50 years and even maybe 75 years more on this planet. Man seek clothes, designer pants, designer dresses and are men and wear panties and wear brasseries and wear skirts with slits from waist to ankles and wear makeup to hide beards that come through at night when asleep and even when not asleep and even during the daylight hours. What fallacy that man have acquired to have others like me born female with female organs and female genitalia and female chest and no hormones ever taken by me. The world believe I am a pervert because I have chosen not to paint my face and not to wear perfume that masks body odor and not to speak as if I am not college educated or older than the very state that I live in which is Pennsylvania which is only 247 years old and even my best friend from High School say and has said she is younger than I and according to the Bible and I quote the passage, \u201clet all who lie and say they are young and are old will not live and will die a quick and ugly death\u201d for GOD Hates the liar and GOD Hates the thief and GOD Hates the man who wears dresses and wears brassiere and wears frocks to hide his penis and wears makeup and wears underpants with his penis tucked under and stretched and put hard in his backside. Most evil all, and I believe I have angered many but many have angered me and I AM GOD who have dictated these words to my chosen child and her name is Pamela Angela Mason and she loves ME and I AM GOD THE CREATOR WHO CALL all and many have chosen not to hear and still many have chosen not to live and still even many more have chosen not to believe that my chosen one is good or even smart or even have worked and saved and invested and created vaccines and babies that are beautiful and my own as well as their mother and I am Wesley George Henry, Jr. The SON of GOD and my FATHER is the ONE WHO SENT ME into this World many years ago to bring man and all back to HIM and I have tried to do just that and I HAVE FAILED where many are concerned and yet my chosen believe I AM GOOD and SMART and HAVE NOT FAILED WITH her nor her children who are MINE as well and so WE LEAVE Planet Earth for her HOME Far Far Far Far Away and then onto to MY Planet which is exactly 1821604882704010o11227633010o11622301o11402121122123124125126127128129130131132133134135136137138139140141142143144145146147148149150151152153154155156157158159160161162163164165166167168169170171172173174175176177178179180181182183184185186187188189190191192193194195196197198199200201202203204205206207208209210211212213214215216217218219220221222223224225226227228229230-999 and 100,000 light years away and I GO.

Watching a child be amazed at something they are experiencing or seeing for the first time. That look of wonder and giddiness is so fulfilling

No idea but as little as possible. Electricity is going up and up and they are saying there is not enough to go around yet they are bringing in EV by the 1000's so go figure. Putting up those horrible wind turbines which harm the environment and biodiversity let alone the animals and catch fire and are environmentally bad news and no discussion with the people who have to live near them. Then they say they are going to turn off the gas, no coal and we have the cleanest coal in the world and to top it off want to bring in nuclear which is so dangerous and I don't care what they say. How many have caused disasters around the world. Our electricity has gone up 100% in a very short time and going up again. Since they privatised it they have just taken the profits and run with them and left a mess for the taxpayer to pay for.

1. Tradies are in demand. 2. Parts take awhile to arrive. 3. If it's under warranty what's the concern? You're not paying for it. 4. Appliances are now mass produced. Forget quality from the good old days. More parts, more technology = more problems.

One, I don't drive (vision issues). Two, not my issue. Three, reads like municipal (city) civil service building inspectors ARE NOT doing their jobs! Last, we need to pump more 'money' into public transportation (long-term cheaper than building more multi-story car parks to accommodate ever increasing heavier automobiles)!

A lot of things especially child abuse and animal abuse. Once I find new born kittens in a rubbish bag dumped on the side of the road, five kitten sadly 3 died, I worked day and night to looked after the two who are now three years old and the best loving cats. Another things that I get upset at are Dishonesty and violence.

I no longer like to use the word respect. To me respect is earned not given as of right for position. I use the word courtesy. This came about because of a headmaster at one of my kids school said he "deserved respect" as he was headmaster. It didn't matter that a decision he had made was not correct for the situation [not just my opinion it didn't directly affect my child so no bias] I always show courtesy as stated above respect is earned

Lots of the things already mentioned but 1. a map of where you are going . 2. Leave a detailed list of where you are are heading with someone you trust, how long for and the date you should be back, so they can notify the authorities if you don't return on time. Safety should be the foremost thing on your mind, especially if you are going alone.

\u201cImagine yourself 5 years from now, you\u2019re in the best shape, happier than ever, you\u2019re with your soulmate and financially successful. The only way this becomes a reality is if you work for it, don\u2019t wish for it, work for it!\u201d A quote from a man I really admire, Morgan Freeman.

And there is the lesson to learn from. Climate change is a natural process of our earth. Climate crisis is a manufactured illusion spread by unelected leaders of global organizations who do not have our best interests at heart. These people jump on individual jets to fly to conferences so they can find more ways of controlling what we can and can't do.

It amazes me now when it says sex there are so many options and once upon a time it was either male or female. Are we now going to have to have jails for all the others? Jails with no gender at all or does it go from what you were born as? Put in males that are now females or vice versa would be rather dangerous. It's more excepted these days too and people are choosing to raise their children as neither gender which I think can be confusing for every one especially the child. Why can't we just except what we are born as and be happy with that. There's always some one that wants change and can't be happy with what they have, it's so sad and it does destroy families which is even sadder again.

The Daleks had a saying "EXTERMINATE - EXTERMINATE" - but I wouldn't go that far but castration (both parents and kids) might be a thing of the future for the so called "entitled". Its a good question for Trump to see what his opinion would be - yeah right - "Give em all guns" Legalise the "Hunger Games".

A post on our Neighbourly website: I was on a diabetes information website the other day. It asked me if I would accept cookies. Is that a trick question?

Do you need your shower to remind you to take your clothes off before you turn the water on? When you do something enough, it becomes second nature.

As a general statement we supposedly live in a free society, and we are meant to have a policy of free speech. We have seen during the covid nonsense that free speech is just a myth and censorship runs riot. Regardless of one's attitude to the nonsense we were fed by all sides of the various debates the unfortunate truth is that those who were doing the censoring were the same vested interests who were making obscene profits from the situation. Yes there should be guidelines and rules as to what is acceptable but during the so-called pandemic some extremely highly qualified medical professionals and scientists were censored for having views that didn't accord with those of the ones who were profiting. George Orwell got it right the only difference is he was 50 years too early.\ud83e\udd23

That why our generation behave themselves (baby boomers)because we knew we would get a clip behind the ear. But in this PC world you can do this know so I blame the younger generation for this. If they kick the back of my seat I would turn around and say if you keep this up I will brake your legs. If they are front with a reclining seat I would tip reclining seat saying I was getting up accidents happen Nd with rubbish I would throw my rubbish on them. You may get it I am not PC and I will call a spade a spade and don't care who I may offend. Not one should have to put up with that kind behaviour.

chef on tv? why wud anyone beleive ANYthing they are saying, they are trying to make a living. they r not the real source of truth. almost all foods have an amt of protein, so are just more easily digested than others. Animal proteins are very hard to digest, and can't be used by the body until they are broken down to amino acids. (this takes alot of energry away from other thigns the body has to do) ...its why we feeel like we are going into a food coma, after a huge (usually protein meal), all energy is diverted from all but essential body organs. Most plant proteins don't take nearly as much to digest, except for beans. Not only are they hard to digest, they are also hard on the kidneys (like animal proteins are). Bottom line is, if you still want to eat meat, cut down substantially. We do not need the amt of animal products we eat these days. U will save ur kidneys and be much healthier. Kidney disease is fast becoming No. 1 killer. This protein business is largely a myth, promoted and driven by, give you 1 guess by who? Dairy and cattle industries. *who'd of thought* I ALWAYS ask who benefits from the information you are reading? - if someone benefits financially...then chances are the information is BS. anyways my two cents worth....

That and also completing or near enough a very long survey to be either told at the very end you do not qualify or when you submit all the answers or it goes to an error message or similar. Happens every day.

I had a dog that was 8 when she tore a ligament in her back leg . We put her on a product called "biovet joint suplement" mixed into hamburger, within a month she walking on her own six months she was walking up and down stairs again on her own in a yr she was running around almost like when she was young . We kept her on it until she died at 14 1/2. No arthritis.

Stupid "Daylight Saving" doesn't actually save anything (never has) and the changes are hated by most people. Just move the clocks by 30mins and then leave the time alone. The official time zones are there for a reason, and continually mucking about with the clocks just makes them a mockery.

THERE HAS NEVER, EVER, BEEN A COUNTRY CALLED PALESTINE. THERE WAS, HOWEVER A COUNTRY CALLED "JUDEA" - OCCUPIED BY BOTH JEWS AND PHILISTINES. ALL THIS IS AVAILABLE IN HISTORY BOOKS - IF YOU - OR ANY SUPPORTERS OF A PALESTINIAN STATE - EVER BOTHERED TO ENLIGHTEN YOURSELF ABOUT IT.

Having just found out that my latest op. did not work, I worry for my partner. He's already been doing much of the domestic chores on my behalf, whilst also carting me about some distance to various health appointments. We are both in our mid eighties and don't know how long we can keep being active. Who will need extra care first? As seniors we are not in a position to pay for much home care and I see the news says that is to be increased in price to seniors using it. Life in the old lane isn't much fun is it?

This is just silly...that is fake but i bet they will start selling and then the real silliness will follow

Last week at 8pm, driving home from Wellington airport, it was raining and windy, just came out of the Terrace tunnel, saw a car on the road shoulder with a man bending over the engine trying to get it going {middle couple with grandson}.His wife and a child were in the car, I pulled out infront of them, I could not start their car. so I tow them all the way to Plimerton. They were so happy, the man say, he will have his son look at it in the morning.They thank me so many times I left, I drove through the red light , I didi not see a cop car, he pulled me over. Just as he was about to write me a ticket his private phone rung. He went back to the patrol car. He came back and ask me where i just came from. I explained.what i did , I mention a certain address. and he say thank you for helping them. so please don't drive through a red light again. I would have faced a huge fine

Conratulations....you are the hundredth person to ask the EXACTLY same question on Rewardia recently...without looking to see if there is an answer...I've answered this many times...as have loads of other people...don't hold your breath for customer support...there isn't much chance of that....whatever happens it is not Rewardia's fault

Personally I wouldn't give kids man made chemicals to sort out a natural chemical imbalance they already have thats been diagnosed. I think it would lead to problems later down the track being on drugs from an early age. 40 or 50 years ago you didn't here about adhd or autism until someone unleashed it on the world, now everything a kid does that we used to do as kids is labeled. Maybe they should look at the food that is consumed by the kids as to the causes of their labeled diagnosis.

Never shop on line. I need to try clothes on, feel the quality of the product also. However, I rarely buy clothes so it does not matter too much to me.

We have a lot of shows around us. Gore, Wyndham, Tapanui, Balclutha' All very popular. Good for people to get together and chat, good catch up time.

At the moment it is convincing those selfish people who still refuse to be vaccinated against Covid. If we are ever to get a hold on this disease or become immune we must all be vaccinated so at least we stand a chance of surviving. Millions of precious people have died and maybe they don't belong to the unvaccinated but they did belong to others who loved and mourn their passing. Too many millions of others now suffer life long health issues because they caught the disease. Most of those I know claim "God protects me" .Well who protected the thousands of Christians and other believers who died? Others claim their body is their property and yet stick strange chemicals and other suspicious mixtures into their arms and up their noses and eat so called 'natural foods which are so chemically modified in order to make them edible. I am vaccinated but even catching the milder version now circulating will affect me because I already have severe respiratory problems and had lung cancer surgery. I know the unvaccinated will give all their silly, selfish reasons and I won't bother reading them because my number one issue is to live to see 2023!

I went to the post office today actually to withdraw $650! They couldn't do it, even though they are meant to be the new banks on a mini scale, A supermarket was across the rd ,, l was thinking ok I may split the difference but nope,. Impossible too as their limits are now $200. He only had 400. His words were we need more people we to pay In cash ,we've been getting wiped out all morning,
