Ok, the one detail that everybody misssed...it must be slightly burnt on the outside, so that you get just a bit of actual char on the burger itself. I'm talking *burnt*...that flavor, combined with the rest, is just...awesome. Now I want lunch. See...
If they're NOT debating... ...my money says they're figuring out how to rob me, you, and everybody else on this site & hand the money over to the crooks who got us into this mess. To me, that's plain BS.
stopandsmelltheroses... ...dozens of things in the bible are inconsistant :) Some parts of the new testament say one thing - others, another. Depending on which version you read (king james? new international?) you get different meanings from the...
I'd agree. The economy does seem to be headed into a tailspin or at least a bit of a recession.
They do this by a trick called "pulling wool over your eyes"...there are a lo of religious leaders that do this. "Speaking in tongues" as an example, what are they saying? Did they record it, and can they prove that they were really speaking another...
Favorite fairy tale? I think I like the "sword & the stone" if that counts, the disney one.
"I think the ads don't give you any reason to buy it". That ad with the plastic figurines makes me think the game is riding on the popularity of the last two in the series, and not doing something original.
I don't know quite where to begin with this one. I read that 9 billion dollars of tax payer money went missing in Iraq just last week. I have a hard time believing that's OK while paying for children's health insurance is not OK.
Well, I've been bankrupt. Twice. With a kid to buy food for (which I couldn't) and couldn't find a job either. There are agencies - tons of them - that will help you out if you need it. Get help from those social services agencies, and focus on what...
I don't watch much sports, but my guess...the country who wants to win more ;)
Hm, somebody said you can't edit your answers when you add them. Is that true? If so, you should add an "edit" feature for people like me who can't spell.
For a few years (literally) I didn't talk to my bother. However, we get along reasonably well now. We're much closer in age than you & your sister are, however, with family it can be hard, no matter what you do. "You can choose your friends, but you...
HI there! There is this incredible "site search" in the upper right hand corner of the page...looking for some of the obvious questions "eg, is my $$$ normal?" or "is it normal to have a $$$?". Then you'll find out yep, it's pretty normal. The ni...
Sometimes, I've read one & it seemed very accurate. Perhaps it was the way they put things, all general & non specific, that made me think they were on something. Er, on to something. However, it's also highly dependent on your interpretation, if yo...
All of the above.
One time, when I left a job, I waited till payday & didn't give notice. The company had fired a few people on the spot in the past when they had given notice, so I didn't feel like I owed them anything. Another time, I worked for a company that I wa...
I've read something in live science's site that suggests it's possible to learn how to read minds or that we can do it "naturally". lol. However, I don't think it's really possible. If it was, I'd make my wife happy 24*7 and never get yelled at ;)
Imho, dye jobs always look bad, unless they are done by a colorist with good experience from a high quality salon. If you do get it done, they also offer consultations when you go in for your hair coloring appointment, so I'd strongly recommed asking w...
Ok man, talk to her about it. Tell her your uncomfortable, and it should pass. Otherwise, it might continue to be an issue, and could grow into something you'll need therapy for later on, if you continue to have this fear, if it's warranted or not.
What I'd do: embed the HTML code from youtube into my dreamweaver template (I use dreamweaver to build pages too when I'm building one) and then that way you can embed the flv file into your page before you upload, preview, and test locally. The youtub...
Hm, I don't know if anybody would be able to give you the name of the work & author. With a book that's potentially forty years old...well, even people that read it when it was published or popular might not know any details. Sorry :(
You didn't mention where it was located ;) From what I've read here, there are members from all over the world. From past experience, it's hard to find a "good" business partner that you're compatible with. In a way, it's almost like finding a good ...
Watch what you eat, do lots of cardio exercise, and drink plenty of water. Also consult with a physical trainer or join a gym if you can. But the most important thing is a very strict diet high in whole grains, veggies, and fruits, with a moderate amou...
Please see a doctor, it sounds like you might have pneumonia, which if left untreated can result in serious complications or become fatal.
Relax, for some, it happens later than others. Enjoy life & don't worry over things you can't control, honestly. You'll be far happier that way. Cheers, Steve
About 150 pounds...your profile says your a girl though ;) If that's not the case, I'd recommend changing it: http://www.funadvice.com/my/profile
I don't know if that's enough money to bait the hook...lunch costs five bucks really. If you want people to get excited, it might take more money. Also, take a look at what helium.com has done...they've attracted a growing pool of aspiring writers, ...
You can also get personalized t-shirts from Zazzle.com or CafePress.com.
If you have a phone that has a built in WAP cabability, then you can access the mobile internet through your cell phone. If not, then you might consider upgrading to one that lets you do so.
I've never been a victim of identity theft per se, but I'd suggest you make sure you don't lose your wallet, shop only with merchants you trust, and tear up or shred any credit card, loan, or similar offers you get in the mail. Also, monitor your cr...

The tea can't hurt...but, more than likely, it's the excercise that will get you the weight loss you're looking for.
Comparison shopping will help you find a store that offers bargains. Try shopping.yahoo.com, bizrate.com, shopping.com, ebay.com, mpire.com, and similar sites. One of those should have merchants that carry discount clothes of the variety you're looking...
Well, if it had been a male teacher with a female student of that age...I think the teacher would have gone to jail, no question. So, she should be in jail as well (imho) for how long? Whatever time allotment would have gone to the guy, were he in a si...
It could be that because it's not quite spring yet, you have a bit to wait until the leaves open. Continue taking good care of it, and when the climate changes a bit more, the leaves of your rubber tree should open.
You might get seriously ill, perhaps even die, if it was too much alcohol. Bad idea to drink so much, so fast.
http://www.funadvice.com/q/jobs_for_felons & try your local employment department, it's the best place to start. They'll help, just fill in all the paperwork, and be patient with them, but persistant & polite. The yellow pages should have listed all th...
There is a previous discussion about this...http://www.funadvice.com/q/jobs_for_felons & also leverage the local employment department. Good luck.
The blackjack cellphone does look cool, I think you'd score "geek" points if you bought it.
The song is called Run, by Snow Patrol, from the album "final straw".
Branch = subset of a whole, like the branch of a tree. I think it's a metaphorical comparison, hence the term for "branch" meaning a subset of a larger organization, a small, representative sample.
Do you mean, why is it the first element? It is because it's atomic weight is one, and it has a single proton in it's nucleus and a single electron in the atomic shell (electronic shell?) it's been a while since i took physics, so I might have some of ...
Friend of mine is a mortage loan officer. I've asked him about the topic a few times, even though I've yet to jump into the whole real estate thing. A mortage refinance is when you take your loan and get it re-issued, usually at a lower payment, an...

A friend of mine from Chicago said that they are the city credited with the origin of the skyscraper. Something about the great fire of Chicago and when they rebuilt the city, it was in different materials (this was 19th century) and since they had so ...
LOL, a spindoctor is a slang term for a public relations professional, or a PR person. Typically, a spindoctor is somebody who is paid to put the right spin, message or slant to a story (aka PR) to make sure that a company comes out looking good in all...
Check with the local grocery stores & other businesses. Dress nice, make sure to leave a good impression, prepare a resume - even with no experience, it shows your more serious. Ask around family & friends who are in business, too, as that's how I g...
It's a kitchen gadget - why buy a toaster, when you can make toast in the oven? Because then you don't have to start up the whole oven just to make toast. Same with a rice cooker - most don't do anything special, but they can use a small amount less of...
Unfortunately, because your sense of smell is very closely linked with your sense of taste, it's impossible for you to figure out if you have bad breath on your own. This is the main reason that tic tacs & other breath mints are so popular, because if ...
That sounds like a good plan, actually. Perhaps hide the stuff they are supposed to find at local businesses, so that when you write it up & promote the event on local radio, print publications, etc, the sponsors get a write up & perhaps some pictorial...
