My grandmother (81 years old) has been staying with us for the past few months, and she's been a pretty tolerable person until recently, she's a sweet old lady... but lately she's been acting incredibly rude.. and acting very strangely.

My father has caught her going into my room an going through my things (my medicine, my clothes, my personal items..etc)

She keeps insulting my father, and accusing him of not doing things correctly.

She's constantly forgetting my name, and my stepmother's name.

She's starting to make up lies about me and tell stories, she's saying I leave the house and I leave all the televisions on and I forget to turn off lights.. I work late, and my father started believing her, until recently when the lies got stranger and stranger and it became more obvious that she was telling stories.

This morning though, she started screaming at the top of her lungs at my father and my stepmother. Why? The dog was asleep in my father's room, my grandma normally gets up around 3am and takes the dog out.. the dog was asleep in the room and she couldn't get to her to take her out. She accused me and my father of not taking care of the dog because when he got up, he didn't take the dog out right away. (Last night I was very ill and my blood pressure was dangerously low, so the first thing he did when I got up was check my blood presure and heart rate, if it got any lower.. he was going to take me to the ER.) Then she started yelling at me saying that I don't take the dog outside to go to the bathroom enough. Then she started complaining that all I ever do is sleep, and it was all my fault etc. Then she said she hoped the dog died soon.

Now, she seems fine.. she's laughing and smiling again and watching television.

Do you think she might be going senile? I'm kind of worried about her...

ok here is the deal, I have a 98 Chevy Cavalier. a few days ago the check engine light came on. I noticed a slight lack of power and a ticking in my engine. I pulled the spark plug wire off of cylinder #1 while the car was running and had no change in the engine. I then pulled off #'s 2-4 and the engine cycled down as it should. I presumed that cylinder 1 was bad. However a compression check on all four cylinders showed them to be just fine at 150 each. I changed all the spark plugs and the wires. All the spark plugs have gas on their little bottoms and all of the suckers spark like the dickens when I pull off the wires when the car is running. I changed fuel injector #1 and put it all back together and I still have nothing coming from cylinder #1...suggestions? helpful ideas? thoughts on where to get a new computer if that is it?

Hey meat-eating jerks. We are on the top of the food chain for a reason. Now we can pick what we shall eat. If you eat poor animals you should burn in hell as they are defenseless and who are you to play God and eat them? BURN.

I have to do a project on a decade. It must consist of a presentation of material, a timeline, a synopsis of key historical figues and events, and a theme or slogan that summarizes the era. I can choose between these two. Which decade will be easier and more fun to learn about and do a report on, the 40's or the 60's?

I can understand why males would want to be christians, but there's all these women trapsing around as devout christians which makes me laugh quite hard. I mean, obviously this is a religion created by males. Just look at the facts. Nothing in the Bible respects females and it totally makes it look as if males are superiors to women. Jesus was a man, God was a man. The name for people over all is 'man', not woman. Men were created first. In fact, the woman was just created for the man. The woman was also created FROM the man. the woman was the evil one who cased the man to start sinning with the apple. Eve is the reason for all the bad things if you believe in that crap. I mean, this is a book that was obviously created by some idiot guy. I respect women, but think the women who love the Bible are kind of insane. It has no respect for women. I used to be a christian and my pastor was always disrespectful of women, acting like males rule the world. But how can any christian blame him.
