    Intercultural wedding

    This is just a hypothetical question. I'm not getting married or anything. I have no plans to for a while.

    Need to vent...men...urgh!

    To sum up the beginning I'm moving to OK in a couple of weeks. I use to live alone in Houston and saw my boyfriend every single day.

    Duck eggs

    What does it taste like to you? I've only ever eaten the ones with the little duckies in them. Not too fond of the baby ducks in there, kinda freaky but I tried it.

    Momma's Boys

    This show is a riot. I normally don't like reality shows but this is pretty entertaining, one mom is just out there looney. The guys aren't bad looking. The firefighter and hockey player are good looking but there's one goofy looking guy that reminds me of the main guy from American Pie.
