I am a member of a group that reenacts the Civil War, serving in the artillery. As a mounted unit, we have several horses, and they always get a lot of attention from the public. On Memorial Day, a self-appointed animal-rights- type came over to our "Master of Horse" and started proclaiming:

"Listen here! I was raised around horses, I know horses, and you are mistreating that one there! That horse is obviously pregnant, and should not be forced to pull loads."

About that time, the horse (a gelded male) elected to urinate.

One of the guys in the unit, who had heard the woman's tirade, called out, "My god! Its water's broke, and there's a leg coming out!"

The woman left quickly and quietly.

I registered with the federal do not call list like 4 times, and am still being bothered by telemarketers, I understand that creditors can still call, but these are peoplel trying to sell me flooring and other such things. How do I get rid of them, and what good does this list do if they still call?

Ok, My son may need to be fitted with a moulding band on his head because he has plagiocephaly (one side of his head is flat). The bands are £2000 and I dont have that kind of cash readily available, and the NHS doesnt fund the treatment as they see it as a cosmetic issue! What would you do if you were in my position, get a loan (bearing in mind I dont work) or fight with the NHS to fund the treatment? NHS have been known to pay for treatment for a few children but it all depends on the circumstances...... For the band to work it should really be fitted before 7 months of age, my son is 5 and a half months now.

Would appreciate any SERIOUS comments on this please.

I get really turned on when my husband is rough with me. I love it when he gives me orders (open your mouth, get on your knee, ect.) When he pulls my hair the harder the better. Holds me down, or even calls me a s*** while we are having sex. I lose my mind...To be honest this is almost the only way I enjoy it at all. He has told me that he feels uncomfortable doing it, and he only does it because he knows I like it. Well, that kinda took the fun out of it for me, but my question is why would anyone like being treated badly. And Why would I have fantasies about other guys doing things to me. I feel like a freak. What is wrong with me?

A lot of rap songs lyrics pertain to growing up in the hood and how society had failed them yet they rarely (if at all) spend any of the money these songs generate to help those living under those conditions by rebuilding and cleaning it up.some of the house parties these rap artists throw are more costly to throw than to build a community center or beautify a park or fix a playground up.Are rappers glorifying the bad living conditions or just blaming society for it's problems?

I left active duty in the Marines two years ago and got my inactive reserve ID not too long ago. Am I allowed to go on to bases to use the exchanges. For example if I wanted to head to Las Vegas and needed a hotel room at Nellis AFB is the ID good for it?

hey i am about to purchase the new Volumizing herbal essences. The reason being i have thick hair, but because i straighten it, it thins out a lot when straightened. Therefore i was thinking using the volumizing shampoo would be good to make my hair even THICKER, so when straightened it would have that nice bounce. Is this how it would work do u think?? or should i go with the basic normal/oily or strengthening? Sry if that made no sense at all! lol

i hate my stepmom. shes always so mean to me and tries to be my mom. she always says mean things about my mom and that totally makes me mad. i didnt know it but yesterday while i was visiting my mom and stepdad, she decided to go through my room. well, my backpack from school was still laying on the floor beside my desk and she went thru it and found a notebook that my BFF and i wrote nasty things about our stepmoms in and she read it. when I got home she freaked on me so i went to my friends house. when my dad came home she showed him the notebook and he called my cell and told me to get my "little butt home now." so my dad yelled at me and he grounded me for the summer. no friends over, i can only go to my moms, only 1 hour phone time a week. i get to keep my comp and ipod(thank goodness). im supposed to go on vacation with a friend in august but thats not gonna happen now. she keeps sayin its my fault, but she went thru MY room so...is there any way to maybe shorten my grounding?

For my lessons now, I usually wear my hair in low pigtails,a basic braid, or a low pony tail under my helmet. I was just wondering if anybody knew any other cute ways to wear it. If it helps, my hair kind of looks like this only a little bit longer:

Also, this is my helmet:

*Please do not say it does not matter what my hair looks like. It is just for fun for my lessons. Thanks!*

I'm thinking of using one to store some good for a short period of time i.e. 6 months. I notice there are indoor ones, outdoor ones, ones that use old shipping containers, etc. I probably wont need much more than a 10' x 15' x 8'. What should I know about these places, and is there a better/cheaper option. Thanks

Currently I am growing a crop of various types of weeds and a few patches of crunchy, dry grass. I live in Florida, so my soil is very sandy and I am only allowed to water once per week (very heavy afternoon thunderstorms are not uncommon, but we get some pretty serious dry spells, too). Also, I have a jacaranda and a kumquat tree , which not only shade half the yard, leaving the rest to fry in the sun, but they drop all kinds of plant matter all over the yard.

Basically, I am looking for a hardy grass that will withstand sun or shade, will be tolerate either not very much water, or lots of water that drains quickly, and doesn't really mind being dumped on by the trees. Also, the fewer chemicals it requires to thrive, the better. Any suggestions? Does this even exist? If it does, should I plant seeds or buy plugs? I am new to the suburbs, so I have no idea what to do here...help??
