I received a check for a rebate, but they dropped the first letter of my first name and changed the second letter (the other 5 letters of my first and and my whole last name are correct). They have my correct address on the check. I remember in high school they said to endorse it incorrectly (the way it is on the check) first, then correctly - is that still true? Any bankers/tellers out there?

I've recently started a new job working for the NHS.

The problem is: I don't actually do anything. I just sit here at my desk surfing the net all day. Now, here's the deal:

1) Me sitting here doing nothing and getting paid for it is draining money from our health service. However;

2) The more money the health service spends this year, the more money they GET next year. And;

3) Since the money given to the health service comes out of tax money, in a roundabout way, I'm paying myself.

i know people say it is not addictive etc, but everyone i have ever known who smoked it long term has either gone totally mad, paranoid or at least very "spacey" and forgetful. do you think this is purely coincidence or is it down to the smoke?

I have been in a long distance relationship for over 8 months and my girlfriend and I have decided to take a break due to us not being happy and arguing quite a bit. We both express love for each other and we have tons of fun when we see each other. its just that we have misunderstandings

The American 'New Republic' magazine says the UK is now a greater threat than either Iraq or Iran in becoming a breeding ground for violent extremism. The USA is coming round to thinking that the UK is a hornets nest of Islamic extremism. Hey guys, you started this sh it. We only went along cos we thought you were our good buddy. Seems no-one is your good buddy when it suits you, fair weather friend.

As soon as he gets off of work he goes directly to the computer and sits for hours bitching and playing his online game. We are in the middle of remodeling our living room. I asked him to move a heavy peice of furniture and he complained about that. Then began to ridicule me when i asked for help because i was starting to feel sick. Telling me I am always sick. I have had health problems since I was born. He knew this upon meeting me. Yet, he expects me to do everything in this house, on this house and around this house while he sits back and laughs that he is going to take credit when something looks really good. He wants to go ahead and make messes and the looks at me and laughs some more and knocks the trash to teh side and says oh well you'll pick it up, that's so you won't get bored. I am never bored I get up in the morning take kids to school and clean until midnight. Yet still never get everything done as the kids are learning habits from Dad too. How can i talk to him?
