Two things:
1)what is the secret to text messaging? (where do you learn all the abbreviations, etc.)
2) Does avatar mean just the caricature pictures? Or whatever picture you have...?

I'll be vacationing in San Francisco this summer and will be visiting Yosemite National Park. I have to take I-80 East to get to 880. What is the fastest and easiest way to get to Yosemite from SF while avoiding the SF-Oakland Bridge chaos? Thanks!

He loves to headbutt everything - laundry baskets, toys, chairs. I really have to keep an eye on him or I'll find him standing on the back of the couch or climbing his dresser. Yesterday, was the worst of all, he did a headdive off the porch while his Dad (my fiance) was fiddling with the lock for the door. He can easily walk down the stairs but decided to leap off instead. I feel awful because he's always hurting himself. Is this normal behavior? He's a happy child, he's not doing these things out of trying to hurt himself.

I came across a story about a boy who was told that God/Buddha existed in everything including the boy. The boy was so smug and fascinated with this that when he came upon an elephant and its rider he refused to get out of the narrow road (because they would move out of his way! For he was in essence God). When the boy almost died he went to his master who told him he had failed to see God in the elephant and the rider... who had told him to get out of the way.

Does anyone know this story or a website linked to it?

I think those in the military deserve to be compensated for their services. Apparently, the president thinks it's acceptable that 20% of military families must use some type of government aid, such as food stamps, wic.

I HATE all the wires and connectors inside my computer. I am an experienced aircraft instrument electrician. Everything i worked on was a lot smaller, and I just repaired it never modified anything. I can cut, splice, solder just fine, but is it really a good idea?

Since there is no air on the moon it would be logical to say you cannot create air with any object or instrument since there is NO air to begin with. Example: A blowdryer. Yet, the module emitted a great amount of air.

I had a dream that I was on stage, in front of thousands of people!!! And I had my guitar and a mike in front of me. And I started playing and I was doing good but then the rest of my band started playing weird stuff. And I stopped and I was like, ok dudes calm down lets try it again. So i started playing and my guitar broke in half and the whole show was a bust and the crowd was silent, so I stood by the edge of the stage and did a back flip off and everbody cheered!!! LOL lame i know! What was your dream like???

If the planet is gassous, and the core is liquid why did the Schumacher Levy comet explode and not just cruise right through the gasses/liquid. I realize that the temperature difference between the two masses must have something to do with the comets demise, but to not have any penetration to the other side of Jupiter is hard to imagine.

It was like the planet just ate the comet up! And burped out a small flame. Being that Jupiter is made of only gas, and has a liquid metal core, it is hard to understand, how/why there was no penetration to the other side.

And more importantly, do any of you actually demand any kind of proof before you believe anything or do you just rely on conjecture for all your facts?

My supplier is 'Virgin Media' a cable network. When I try to watch a video on say 'YouTube' it's crazy. 10/15 seconds of buffering, 2 seconds of footage!! Downloading songs is just as frustrating, they download a 10-20Kbts. Surely this is not right? Apparently I have a 2.2 connection or something. Is cable known for being slow. Do I 'share' the cabel with others. Does this mean that if somebody is doing a lot of very heavy downloading it screws it up for everyone? It's just as bad on small, little heard of sites, ones that hardly anyone would visit. Text is ok, banners bad, video terrible. Help please. Thankyou

You are 21 years old.
You have $11,000 saved up from working very hard at McDonald's, and years of being a total miser by never having fun with your money when you were 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 by always saving.


You make the stupid mistake of spending it ALL on a car. Instead of getting a old, reliable car from a private seller who was an auto mechanic who took care of the car and then you need $1,000 from you mom to take of the total cost of $12,000 after tax.

Think about it,

You're financially powerless.
You're at the mercy of others all over again.
You have no savings in your bank anymore.
You can't buy anything else.
You can't spent it on anything from EBAY.
You can't spent it on "kinky fun".
You can't spend it on anything fun.


Had you spent $2,500 on a reliable old car, you'd have $8,500 left over and could have fun with $2,000 savings the other $6,500 in the bank for your future.


How would feel in this scenario?
You're suddenly finacially powerless.
