Why can't people
NotchJohnson replied to CristyCurves's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
I just wanted to show a couple of honesty answer that are better then the "sugar coated" answer. I have a good oral hygiene but one time I had a crack in a tooth I did not know about and I was told that I had bad breath. Sure it hurt to hear that but I took care of the problem right away and was thankful for the honesty. On the first Christmas with my SO before we got married she got me some chocolate(Ferrero Rocher) which I did not care much for but told her they were my favorite and she had been getting me them every year for about 5 years until I told her once that I did not like them that much. She was crushed but understood why I did it and now I get my favorite sweets instead of what I did not enjoy has much. My SO is an excellent cook and from time to time she will change a recipe sometime its for the better and sometime its not, I'm honest with her and she will not repeat the ones that I/we don't like. On a last note I agree about being honest but there is a time and place and a way to do it. Keep in mind that we all have different taste and what one person likes is not the same as the other. -

Lawn Care/Gardening
NotchJohnson replied to Maverick's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
Lawn care can be lots of work but very rewarding. I take care of 12 acres of lawn at my place and spend approx. $2000.00/year on fertilizer and weed control, plus 300 hours in maintenance including grass cutting. The secret to a beautiful lawn is lawn aeration (this piece of equipment is more expensive then the lawn tractor). Some recommend dethatching in the spring but that is good if you did not do your last cut at the right time in the fall. Second mistake that most do is cut the grass to low, you must leave your grass at a height of 2-1/2 to 3" high when cutting. Cutting it to low will give sunlight to the weeds and that is what they like. Mow your lawn in different direction every time you cut it. If you are thinking of reseeding it let me know and I can help you find the best seed for your application(ex. shade, traffic, dry area, etc.). -

Did you know?
NotchJohnson replied to Cara Silver's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
Whips can be fun but also dangerous. Let me explain, I was on a boat tour in Mexico over 20 years ago and the had a show with a guy dressed like Zorro and he chose me to be the laugh of the crowd. I stood up in the middle of the stage with a cigarette in my mouth(now if smoking does not kill you this might) in a quick move he broke the end of the cigarette and with 3 more moves he took it down to the filter. As if this was not enough the fun part was to put a balloon between my legs and blindfold me, get me to stand very still and for him to bust the balloon from a distance without damaging my private part or my ego. So yes the sound of a whip does scare me a bit and I don't scare easy. -

I like LeeRichards because he is an easy target for a joke and can take it well.
