I seem to have a knack for finding a cat or dogs sweet spot and if they are in need of a pat or ear scratch they know I'm the guy that can satisfy them. Cheers!

They're usually about banks or credit cards, or drugs of one sort or another.. Have you EVER wondered WHY they do that??? It happens because some liberal passed a law that REQUIRES companies to TELL you about the DOWNSIDES and the RISKS of the product that's being advertised... But, they tell you in such a way that satisfies the law, but doesn't TELL you anything..It's what you'd call, a "REGULATION". But, even right wingers wanna know if the credit card they're about to buy is a piece of CRAP, don't they??? excon less

The Qur'an is often placed second but the rest of the list will be a shambles. Books like Harry Potter, The Da Vinci Code and Lord of the Rings score very highly but that's because, with a world population of 7.4 billion, mass advertising/promotion has secured sales that earlier, greater books could never have achieved. Even rubbish like Fifty Shades of Grey has made the cut on some lists.What would be your choice for a top-ranking list. (Choose your own number.) less

The song supposedly drew little (adverse) attention until 1936, when it began to be connected with a rash of suicides in Hungary and was allegedly banned there. American musicians and singers soon jumped at the chance to record instrumental and translated versions of the “Hungarian suicide song,” and by the end of 1936 several recordings were available to American audiences. Probably the best discussion of the song and its impact comes is Steven Stacks paper "Gloomy Sunday: did the 'Hungarian suicide song' really create a suicide epidemic?," which appeared in Omega: The Journal of Death and Dying in 2008.I WARN YOU - LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!! less

Some people believe that the “k” represents kärlek (love) and the “a” signifies avbruten (broken love). If you step on too many a covers your love life is likely to end up in the sewer (yeah, yeah, I know). Here's a link.What superstitions govern your life? And if you say you're not superstitious you'd better tap on wood to make sure no demons heard you say it.

So, I typed Offline, and when that didn’t work I went back and added Busy on top of that…but still once in a while the CHAT pops up, and I don’t want to seem rude, really appreciate the exchanges with fellow aMuggers…
But if I get extra time on aMug past posting questions and tendering comments, I want to go look at people’s blogs…so, is there a solution that I am missing, can you disable Chat completely? less
