                  When a person is always trying to bring others down, it's because they're miserable people
                    Think before speaking
                  You need to have friends around you
                  When it comes down to it, your family will always be there for you
                  Don't lie..it will always catch up with you
                  Don't trust the DVR to record your favorite shows..check on it!
                  The bottom oven just doesn't cook the same as the top oven
                  When you microwave fish fillets, cover them so they don't explode!

                    Paris

                        Thanks for thinking of me. I will have to get started on this, before I forget. I am so bad sometimes.

                        They have Slingo on Facebook? I used to play that game a lot!
