    My (very) brief Insanity review

    Oh geez, I saw this workout and I think I'm game as most but I was too afraid I would dread doing it so I just didn't go for it. I never do Imax 3 (yep, it's there)...I could probably count the times I did it on two hands. I have it, I know it's there, but hate to do it. Tell someone me this...

    Anyone else order Physique 57?

    Thank you so much for your reply...I am so glad I read your post before hit the final button on my Collage purchase. I have Squeeze Accelerated and both Bar Methods in my baskets but haven't finalized the purchase. Honestly, I like the Fluidity DVDs but each segment wasn't challenging enough...

    Anyone else order Physique 57?

    It's always good to hear from you Kassia. I've been around, but lurking most of the time. I just recently purchased the fluidity bar. So far I've found that I love the bar but need more challenging workouts (not to mention more variety). I'm no where near a ballet dancer, but I also can...

    Anyone else order Physique 57?

    I just recently ordered the new Physique 57 DVDs. Has aneone else? I enjoy barre and variety in my workouts and the New York City based classes seemed to get rave reviews. I was just wondering if anyone else ordered the DVDs and if they tried them yet...

    i want a pressure cooker

    I have a 7 Liter duromatic Kuhn Rikon turn-top model...I love it and it's the perfect size for me. Honestly, I don't use it to it's full potential because I chose to make mostly beans in it (vegetarian that I am). I love lorna Sass's book and she was the one I wrote to to recommend a make and...

    Frankenstein Readers

    I finally finished. I'm not sure I enjoyed it...hmm. Creepy is definitely a good word to describe it, Lauramax. Sadness and loneliness are also major themes. Did Jo pick out the next book yet or did I happen to miss that thread too. I seem to be running a little behind this week....lol.

    Frankenstein Readers

    Melissa, I agree it's a slow start, but it really does start to pick up. I still have a bit of a way to go too. ;)

    Frankenstein Readers

    I am way still behind on reading this novel, but all I can say at this point is my skin is beginning to crawl. Seriously. I am actually getting spooked by her words. Anyone else feel this way? Geez. Anyway, I still have a long way to go, but I want to keep this thread alive while I read. I...

    Madoff is still winning

    His wife still keeps 2.5 million dollars and his family still is safe from prosecution. Ick! I agree, you can't tell me his family knew nothing. Nobody can pull off a scam that big all by themselves.

    Anyone from Long Island?

    lol...I never was able to pick up the Texas accent and I've been here over 10 years...but the hospitality is really as awesome as they say it is. ;)

    Frankenstein Readers

    Now that I think about it I should have used the word fascinating. ;) It's not at all what I expected, but I do mean that in a good and surprising way. I still have a long way to go so I'm not going to say too much now. :) I'm working this weekend so I won't be able to really hit the book until...

    Pretty note cards

    Wow so many choices. Michelle....thanks for the heads up on the charitable cards...I had no idea. ;) I just thought they would be nice. I will be careful when selecting. I knew if I asked, you all would come up with great ideas. I now have my credit card handy and many internet sites to...

    Pretty note cards

    I'm looking for websites that sell pretty note cards. I ordered a few that can be planted and grown (naturally, after they are read ;)) into wild flowers, but I like to have a lot to choose from when I decide to send someone a thoughtful note the old fashion way. I would also like to support...

    Dara Torres' Got Milk Ad

    I adore Dara Torres and thought her book was great. I do she does look pretty good in the milk ad, although I'm not a fan of the product she's promoting..major Ick. I just hope she continues competing. I'll be rooting for her for sure.

    Will Health Care Reform Increase Life Expectancy?

    We do need reform in our healthcare industry. First, promoting and treating illness shouldn't generate more profit, but creating health should. Our physicians should be paid more for creating health not doing procedures....they should teach people how to eat right instead of giving them...
