I am always very put-off by things like that. Call me old-fashioned, but I think children are becoming more and more overly-indulged every year. With my daughter's agreement, when she had her 6-year-old party in September, she just asked her guests to bring humane society donations to her...

I am also fotunate in that I can choose to work 5 longer days or 4 shorter ones. I prefer to work 4 shorter ones, although it also means I have to get up at 4:00 a.m. to work out on those days. However, it's worth it to have Friday off, and I don't have to get up quite that early on Fri., Sat...

All right, Shelley, I guess we're stuck now. March it is! (Me and my big mouth!) I better stop shakin' and start training. Run, fellow Catheite, run! Keep us posted (and I'll do the same). Your fellow FORMER askeeerdicat, Deborah

Funny you mention being "askeered" to run a race. I've never run in any race before and have recently been thinking of trying the Little Rock Half Marathon. But, like you, I feel too "askeered" to try. (What if I don't finish? What if it takes me 4 hours or more?, etc., etc.) That being...

I don't have any recommendations, because I use the N-Gage studio shoe also. I just wanted to add that I agree with the above poster about calling Ryka. I've had several pairs of the N-Gage studio shoe, and I've never had quality issues. It sounds like you may have gotten a "lemon" pair...

Laura -- Thanks for the "plug" for my "chug." I think she's cute, of course, but I don't know if she's "objectively" cute. Probably more homely. She's definitely not quite as adorable as your puggle. I will, however, post a picture from home -- assuming, of course, that I can figure out how to!

My little chug (chihuahua/pug mix -- or so the vet speculates), Maggie, doesn't watch much TV. Nonetheless, at the kennel where we board her when we travel, each dog gets his/her own private little room with a couch and TV in it! I always wonder what she watches when we're gone.

Hello half-marathoners and those training for one -- I was looking at different examples of half marathon training programs and noticed some are just different distances on different days, whereas others incorporate sprints and crosstraining days. Which, if any, did you guys use? Does...

I am one of those who does not share Palin's views on most issues, especially social issues. Nonetheless, I think she has handled herself quite well thus far and has some impressive qualities that many in public life do not have. The wonderful thing about our country is that, rather than...

Hello everyone. I was wondering how you figured out what degree of incline constitutes a "hill" or "fast hill" in the cardo coach series. I know it will differ for everyone, but I'm wondering what degree of an incline to aim for. I can figure out what a sprint would be for me, but am not sure...
