    A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, Shakespeare pointed out, but of course roses stop smelling good when they start eating through your finances. If the occasion is Mother?s Day then of course just giving roses to your mother won't do. One needs to give a variety of flowers, touching all the sentiments and feelings of the mother. Sometimes people become extravagant in giving flowers as a gift, and spend more than they can afford.If one wants to make his mom feel special by sending her...

    With the holiday season quickly approaching we start to see candy canes popping up in store windows, on people's clothing, and even on wrapping paper. But how exactly did the tradition of the candy cane get started?The old urban legend says a candy maker in Indiana wanted to symbolize the birth of Christ with the use of a piece of candy, so he took a hard candy stick which was pure white then shaped it into a letter J for Jesus and added some red stripes to represent God's love and the trinity. ...

Everything is done by a male to woo a female but in spite of being able to woo the female most of the time the male woes the wrath of the female. Why does it happen?

    One of my earliest memories involves a Fourth of July spent at Annandale, Minnesota, sitting on a hill and watching fireworks. Our family had a cabin on Cedar Lake, a mile and a half away, and we had come to the display with a recently emptied ice cream tub filled with popcorn and a thermos of raspberry Kool-Aid.
