'Queen of Versailles': Tale of Mega-Mansion Headed for TV (AOL Real Estate)

May 3rd 2012 8:04PM The stained glass dome is beautiful. The size of the house, compared to the lot size - IMO - is too big. This house needs to be in a twenty (or bigger) acre forest. I'm sure their garage alone is bigger than my house & land. To each his own...
As for the Biltmore being the largest "house" in the U.S. - I'm sure that status was lost when it became a resort.
As for the owner(s) & how they made their money - EVERYONE knows buying a time share is RISKY business. If he really did rip people off, Karma will get him. Comments about her being a 'baby' machine, simply rude. Until they ask for welfare, they can have all the children they want.

White Castle Looks to Grow Its Domain (Slashfood)

Sep 5th 2010 9:44AM How about just opening in more locations? I for one would like to see W.C. in Florida. I grew up with them, in Detroit. Krystal just isn't the same and the frozen ones at the grocery store are a poor sub for a hot sack of their little burgers!

Mutts Mingling With Pure Breeds at AKC Competitions (Pawnation OLD)

May 25th 2010 9:08AM AGREE with Meeks - 100%. WHY do Americans always push to change? ANY group, that they may be SLIGHTLY interested in - BUT it's not willing to accept said person - they FORCE change? Don't like the rules? START YOUR OWN ORG! Or how about this? The story DID say there are other events, besides AKC, but they have fewer activities - WHY? Because they have fewer members & support. WHY NOT HELP A GROUP THAT IS REALLY ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO BE A PART OF - Rather than CHANGING one that does not meet your needs???
Have had both, registered AKC and mutts. Love them all the same :)

Swine flu: Who's winning and losing in the H1N1 virus pandemic? (Daily Finance)

Oct 27th 2009 9:08PM Before the President gets folks all excited over "nothing" he needs to get "his people" to agree on treatment. The FDA say 2 doses. The CDC says 1 dose. AND - the CDC says, unless you are immune compromised, the treatment for H1N1 is the SAME as the seasonal flu! An RN, working for years in one of our local hospitals (FL) says MORE deaths this year from SEASONAL flu - but no one talks about that. Our family doc says "all flu" right now is H1N1. Truely, unless you are immune compromised - no worries. For some reason, this flu is not hitting the elderly as hard as seasonal flu - and the elderly are the first that are told you must have the shot. None of my 'healthy' friends or famliy are getting the shot. One diabetic in the family took it. NO ONE trusts the Feds anymore.......

Gangster's ATM: New 'Trojan horse' opens your bank account to crooks (Daily Finance)

Oct 4th 2009 7:02PM Come on AOL - you can do better than this - - "URLZone takes advantage of vulnerabilities in web browsers, including Firefox and Internet Explorer"
If you want to do your readers a real service, WHY not list all of the browsers that are affected? Does the "including" include AOL? Or Opera? Or Safari - for Windows? If you're going to issue a warning - how about a few more IMPORTANT details???
"Joy" commented that she had money stolen through PayPal - BUT PayPal saw that it was stolen & GAVE HER THE MONEY BACK! She then goes on to say, she no longer uses PayPal. HELLO! It's probably SAFER to make purchases through them than it is straight from your own bank! Seems to me more people have been ripped off from BOA than from PayPal. Personally, I have made purchases through PayPal for 10 years (or more) NEVER had a problem with them. WHOMEVER you use - it seems "safer" to me for your information to be "stored" with one service - - like PayPal, Amazon, Google - - rather than enter it into multiple e-commerce sites. OH, another thing - it's a PAIN, but the "experts" say - change your password often. Lastly, I NEVER EVER "store" my user name on my online banking accounts. If they don't have your user name - how can they hack your password ?

Fiji Water: So cool, so fresh, so bad for the environment? (Daily Finance)

Aug 26th 2009 1:27PM Someone said "Water is free". I would like to know where they live - our last month's water bill was 90 dollars! Two adults who are not careless with usage. Go figure!
We used to buy bottled water - our tap water tastes nasty! Florida has the worst tap! Well, recently we quit the bottle and got a Pur sink filter. Probably are saving at least 20 dollars a month and who knows how much damage from plastic. By the way - the filter 'system' cost around 20 dollars & replacement filters are 8 dollars. Our first one lasted for two months, drinking, cooking and in a steamer. As to the Resnicks - there will ALWAYS be people who try & make a quick buck - or shady dollar off of other people. I think, they would not be able to carry on IF the GOVERNMENTS - OURS TOO - were not such dang crooks!! Line their pockets & "poof" a law/bill is passed allowing criminal activity. It's a SAD comment on society!!!

PETA's 'whale' billboard has the InterTwitter Fraternal Council mad (WalletPop)

Aug 18th 2009 6:14PM Forgot to say - I am 5'2" and weigh 110 - boy that sure is FAT!

PETA's 'whale' billboard has the InterTwitter Fraternal Council mad (WalletPop)

Aug 18th 2009 6:12PM ha ha ha!! PETA thinks all veggie eaters are thin? And MORE importantly - people that eat meat are FAT??? Newsflash! I am in my 40's and I eat MEAT everyday of my life. Nothing better than a med-rare rib eye. Stick that in your corn-cob pipe & smoke it. PETA IS A JOKE!!! This bill board is RUDE. While some may laugh, those with real eating disorders could be harmed by this. Oh well, PETA doesn't mind. PETA does not care about HUMANS - only "animals". FACT IS - we need 20 to 30 percent of fat in our diets in order to process the vitamins from food we eat. The fat can be animal or veggie.

America's Most Talented Tattoo Artists (Digital City Blog)

Aug 14th 2009 8:11AM WOW - - Kat as a blonde - interesting! As for the tats - to each his own. A lot of their work is beautiful! I have one tiny tat - not a sleeve girl...

Colin Powell: Skip Gates Could Have Avoided Arrest (Politics Daily)

Jul 29th 2009 10:30AM Let's NOT forget there was a BLACK officer and a LATINO officer at the scene. BOTH of them said, the arresting officer did his job! Just because you teach at HARVARD does not mean you are ABOVE THE LAW or the "little man". I don't care if you're skin is green - anyone with HALF a BRAIN KNOWS -- Mouth off to a cop & you're ASKING FOR trouble!!
