I read this in either an English or American Literature class. I probably don't remember enough about this poem to get an answer but hope someone knows...also, who is the author??? It is about a guy who is nostalgic about the past. He hates the present and wishes he lived in the past when everything was better. The funny thing is that what he fanticizes about in actuality isn't as great as he thinks it is. There is one part where he's thinking about knighthood and how wonderful it was but any thinking person would know that with the heavy armour and not being able to move or see well it makes his fantasy laughable.

Is it possible to attempt suicide by taking lots of tablets but NOT have to have your stomach pumped?

My friend told me he attempted suicide and was taken to hospital. I asked did they pump your stomach and he said something like "no, they don't do that now" which seems totally fake to me.

Is it possible that they (hospitals) have some other way now ? Or was it all attention seeking and they took like 1 extra tablet and called it an overdose?

I don't want to bring it up again in case they were for real. They don't like to talk about it supposedly so I respect that but I have been wondering...

sorry if wrong section but as it is about medicine and how lethal it is etc i felt it might be ok here. Don't know what kind of tablets it was though.

1. My current boyfriend, who is a law student, like me. I love him a lot, but I sometimes wonder if he really feels the same way about me. I'm constantly jealous of his ex, who he dated for 3 years. We've been dating for 3 months, and he says he loves me. However, I can't be assured things will last.
2. My ex. I dated him for over a year. We broke up 3 years ago and have remained close since. He's really smart (he's a medical student!), and I used to really love him. I'm not sure if I still feel that way, but I used to think he was the guy I'm supposed to marry. I know he would never cheat on me, but I'm not sure if my love for him is as strong as my love for my current boyfriend. He's secure, my current boyfriend is more mysterious (mainly because I don't know him as well).

Who would you pick?

It seems to me what the attack was ment to do fell so far short of what it actually did that we were incredibly lucky that that the attack was a huge failure for the Japanese , and it made us wake up and join the countries in Europe that were screwed until we joined in . Yes we lost many brave men and women but it could have been so much worse .

I have been getting annoying emails from someone claiming to be a lawyer. All the emails are COMPLETLY screwed up. They look as if they were written by a 5 year old. In all of them, I am never accused of anything. They are just threats over and over again, saying "you MUST contact me at something@aol.com or you WILL be taken to court!" (Or something along those lines) So, my question is, is it illegal to impersonate a lawyer? And if so, what kind of charges can be brought up against this person?

Well I'm one the pill but the pill is not 100% effective and there was a few times my bf and I hit raw. I thought it was fine because i'm on the pill. well at first my bf was scared and i was fine but lately, i've been feeling wierd. Like at night i get a stomach ache, i constantly have headaches, my breast are more tender, my stomach is harder and i stopped eating a lot of things. Like i had chicken two nights ago and i felt like i was going to throw up and today there was chicken and it like grossed me out. I hope that all of this is symptoms of my pill even though this is my third month on it or its all in my head. When i think about it i think that ok, i'm turning 18 and this is my last year of high school and by the time i give birth i'll be graduated. By then Im not ready to have a kid. My bf is a little nervous and also kind of excited but its still scary. I just hope that i'm not.

I've been seeing a guy for 3 mths. He's recently sep'd after 12 yrs (wife cheated/chose her lover). They are both caring for their 2 children and ARE getting div'd.

I've been loving it-he's called each day/included me/treated me to dates. I've told him I love him a few times. He was my b-friend when I was 15 (I'm 40 now/no kids).

When I first called he said he was dating. We've talked about going slow.

I knew he was stressed, but I learned only recently just HOW much. He feels "spread too thin" at times. Some stress recently caught ME by surprise, too. Understandably, I am not THE priority in his life (his kids are), but I'm only human. So I had a couple moderate "tear sessions" recently/nothing *too* "crazy." He cried once with me.

I haven't seen him now for 1 1/2 wks but will tomorrow. We've talked by phone 3 times.

1) Am I "relationship material" to him or "rebound girl?"
2) Was this mini break-up inevitable (or did my tears cause it)?
3) Should I wait? How long?

Or even thinks about what they are writing? It was recently reported that British youth are the worst in Europe. Reading the replies to my last question about torture, I'm not surprised. Keep on giving the kids a good example and I'll keep on living outside the UK

An Asian man walks into a New York Currency Exchange with 2000 yen. He receives $72.00 in American currency. The following week, the same Asian man walks into the same currency exchange. He again exchanges 2000 yen. This time, he receives $66.00 in American currency. The Asian man doesn't understand why he received less money, so he asks the clerk, "Why less money when same 2000 yen"

The clerk replies, "Fluctuations." As the Asian man prepares to leave, he turns, looks at the clerk and angrily says, "Fluck you Amelicans, too!"
