I mean, you have things to do and you cannot get the person to be quiet long enough to tell them you gotta get busy. They talk and talk and linger. What do you do?

My bfriend and I recently broke up after a 7 yr relationship. I am only 21 but still so in love with him. I am normally a very positive person and try to realize that everything happens for a reason.

Ladies, those of you who are experienced, please help me see the positive side of this. Those of you who are 30+, mainly because you might have experience in this. If you could go back to your 20s, what would you have done differently. I want to live my life to the fullest and would rather see something good out of this. Not just thinking that I lost my love & best friend.

(identify as many poetic techniques as you can)

Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man."

you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind,
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
Seein' that he's chasing.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind,
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves,
The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach,
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow.
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,
Let me forget about today until tomorrow.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

I put a cable through my front wheel yesterday for security. I got out of work late and hopped on the bike. I got 3 feet when the cable wound itself around the hub. I spent the next half hour unwinding the cable. Fortunately, no damage was done except to my ego.

Any other good (bad) stories from you folks?

I'm askin this because I'm planning on buying a DVD player for my TV, but I know that you can hook up the portable player to the TV so it basically IS a regular DVD player PLUS you can watch it in the car etc.... so basically I'm just asking if theres any thing better about a regular DVD player than a Portable DVD player doesn't have, cause if there isnt then I dont see why everybody doesnt just get portable ones.

I remember back in 1989 when he loudly defended a girl named Latasha Harlens who claimed that she was raped by a gang of white guys. She later admitted that she lied and the Rev. never, ever apologized for his ugly accusations.

DON'T GET ME WRONG. I'M NOT DEFENDING DON IMUS. HE SHOULD NEVER HAVE OPENED HIS BIG MOUTH. IF HE GOT FIRED, THAT WAS OF HIS OWN DOING.

It's just that the Good Reverend seems to relish with glee getting Imus fired.

For the record, I'm not a white guy. I'm a Latino, Mexican-American.
