There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?

My hubby and I decided that I would stay-at-home with our son until he at least started school. This meant we had to make some sacrifices. We simplified.....only had 1 car payment (he had a truck that was paid for), and everything worked out fine. He went out and purchased another vehicle that's 4 yrs old already....paying 400 a month for it.....and with an outrageous interest rate. He didn't even consult me. Now I have to work full time just so we can make ends meet because of all his spending. Plus we will have to pay for childcare. He thinks its no big deal - I'm furious!! We should have made this decision together! He thinks I shouldn't be upset about this....what do you think?

My husband has sole custody of our children because I was in an accident which separated me from them due to hospitalization. . He is not abiding by judgement requiring him to provide access (telephone #, address, email). To fight him in court, I have to travel 900 mioes and I am disabled, making it hard for me. I represented myself out there last month. His goal is permanent custody. The longer he keeps me separaterd from them, without relationships - the better it is for him. He has kidnapped my kids. I haven't been able to speak to them on phone since June 2004. He has moved them through 3 cities. I have only been able to track them through the schools. I'm not from there (were on military posting there) and have no friends or family there. I don't qualify for Legal Aid - have been denied 3x. Legal clinics haven't helped. My member of parliament said could not get involved in court matters.

About a month and a half back, I used "Plan B" emergency contraception. A few weeks after I stopped taking my birth control and have not been sexually active. My period is about a week late this month, do you think this is normal?

Hmm. I am really wondering why. All or maybe most pizzas are round but why is the container different from the food itself? I think it would be much nice to look and easier to grab the food if it has the same shape with its packaging. Am I right?

for every action there is a reaction. think hard,, does it mean that if you try to open a pepsi and it doesn't open the first try you get mad? or does is it mean something more? do you not react and try to open it again? this is my point. any thing you do causes a reaction. whether it is a relationship with someone or just every day things. every action has a reaction. EVERY THING

Is peace a reachable dream or is it too faded to truley grasp?
Can there truley be peace and no war? or can we not have one without the other? Or is this the best we can do? fighting for justice. Is this as close as we can get?
Are we capable ridding ourselfs of hate? what if we rid ourselfs of love instead?
