Eleven people were hanging on a rope, under a helicopter. 10 men and 1 woman. The rope was not strong enough to carry them all, so they decided that one had to leave, because otherwise they were all going to fall. They weren't able to choose that person, until the woman gave a very touching...

First of all I bought a 10 lb. pork shoulder and froze it. I put it in the fridge on Wed. but still frozen solid. How long will this take? And then, if it finally does thaw, how long will I cook it? I was hoping to make some kind of bbq with it once it's cooked.

My daughter's wedding is coming up. Since we will be hosting many family members for that long weekend, I would like to start baking some cookies or something soon. Should I freeze the already baked cookies or should I freeze the dough? Never really made baked goods ahead of time. One...

I am looking for a song titled "Waking Up Alone" by Paul Williams. The version I am looking for is from 1972. . I just wasted money on a cd from Amazon that had the newer version on it which I didn't want. Any help?

In the recent past I have had several restaurant experiences that IMO diminish from the overall dining. For example, when dining in an upscale restaurant with somewhat pricey menu, linen tablecloths, napkins; why did my salad dressing come in a plastic cup? On vacation this past month we...

I found a recipe for hot pepper jelly that I thought I would try. Some years back I bought some at a farmer's market in PA. It was wonderful. I just got back from the store with the ingredients and DAH I didn't see the pectin part on the recipe. Truth is I didn't really want a jelly but more...

Just wondering if anyone here takes naps? I do. Every single day. When I get home from work I like to take a nap. I have done this all my life. If someone calls me during my nap it's the same as if they called me in the middle of the night. I have tried to drink coffee or soda but it's...

Is there really such a thing? I thought of making myself some sort of smoothie for breakfast. Most of the recipes I see are high in sugar or fat. Is there anyone out there with a tasty recipe?
