  5. Alcohol is a dangerous drug.

    Socrates hit the nail on the head. “Take everything in moderation; nothing to excess." Apply this maxim to just about everything in life and you won't go far wrong.

  19. Seriously. what happened to Miley Cyrus.

    iley Yes. This could be true and she is simply playing out a part. However:- She is no more a thespian than you and I. She is a singer. Whilst we all may play many parts throughout the course of our lives, hers is played out in the public arena and theres the rub. To get away with this behaviour (playing one role to the world whilst keeping your true self private) requires a degree of wisdom that I doubt is possessed by Miley. Time will tell and our discussion is mere speculation but in all honesty I would not wish to be her, despite the big bucks her behaviour has brought in.
  20. Seriously. what happened to Miley Cyrus.

    I am sorry to say that I have to agree with this and it is all rather sad and depressing. Miley Cyrus is a rather poor role model but in being such has raked in the lucre. At the moment she is not the sort of young lady one would take home to meet Mama.
