I'm only asking this because the person closest to me seems to have a problem (much like gambling or drugs)...video games consume our life because of it. Every time there is a new game or new system it's instantly in our possession and it's whittling away our finances. I understand that many people, including myself, find them fun and a lot of people would say, well it's just a hobby...but when a hobby consumes your pay check and your way of life so much so as to that's all you do and you live just to shop for them (many of which we don't even ever play)....is that too much?
does anybody else have a problem with video games? Is anybody willing to admit it's a problem for them? and ...how exactly do you tone it down as to where you're only getting a game or two every other month or so like a normal person?

I have one credit card and I'm currently trying to pay it off. I've been late on some payments so my interest is really high. I try really hard not to use it, but sometimes I need to. Even when I purchase something small, the interest makes it seem like I spent hundreds of dollars. Would it be better to get another credit card, pay my current one off with it, and start from scratch paying it off? Or should I keep doing what I'm doing?

I have an old car that is in amazing condition. It has "chrome wire wheels" which are the old spoked type and I wondered what the best way of cleaning, drying and polishing them was. We all see these amazing concours cars every now and again, how do they do it? My fingers are causing me agony! Please Help!

We want to go to Walt Disney World in either Dec or Feb, and we want to stay on-site (we think) in a nice hotel, before we have kids (about 3 years), and so we are trying to decide which hotel to stay in.
Grand Floridian
Polynesian
Swan
Dolphin
Contemporary
any other choices

Also what is the difference in the swan and dolphin? or is it simply better to stay off site in a nice hotel? Also which room should we get? Thanks!

I am asking because we had hail damage on our roof and it need to be replaced. They sent us a check to cover the cost of new shingles and etc., however when the roofers started tearing the old shingles off today, we discovered that there never was any plywood underneath.... It looked kinda like old hard wood flooring (the thin slats of wood) with huge gaps and holes everywhere... The guy had said that he was shocked that our roof hadn't leaked yet. When we called our insurance company to request addition funds... (2500 dollars) they refused to pay and basically said we were on our own.... I have been taking pics of everything, and I was wondering if you can take them to court or not and make them pay it?? We have used the same company ever since we purchased the house (5 years) and have never made any late payments. The only claim ever made to them is now for the roof... What are our rights???? Thanks for your help!!!

I heard many stories about online schools: "they are good, they are bad, they are accredited, yes, they count, no they dont count"...regardless of what is said about the online schools, how do employers or big corporations carry it out when hiring someone with an online degree? do they count? has actually anyone graduated from an online school and gotten a job?....

I asked a business owner about this...and his reply was:

"Yeah, by all the other suckers who paid their money to get a quick and easy degree for little or no effort. But, if you came to my office to apply for a job with one of those "degrees", I'd call the janitor to sweep you and you useless paper work OUT of my building. God Bless you"....

what do you think??

The song is played in the TV show called "Hex". The song that plays further on in the video I post (background during the kiss moment) isn't listed anywhere in the list of songs played in the show. A looooooot of people are searching for it, but nobody happens to know the name of both artist and song. I'd really appreciate your help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb4BTQHotBo

This question is for those who work at or have worked at Wal-Mart.
There is a new Wal-Mart opening up in our area and they are taking applications this week. I plan to apply. My questions are: what is typical starting pay? I would really like to hear others opinions on their favorite job at Wal-Mart. I think I would like to work in the baby dept. as a sales associate, should I be that specific on the application or what should I put for position applied for? Any help on the application or interview process would be appreciated. Also, I prefer to work nights--would this shift be difficult to get or easier to get than dayshift?
Thanks in advance!

I went to florida for 5 days. My sister in law stayed at my home to take care of my Puggle. (1/2 pug, 1/2 beagle)
I left instructions to feed her 1 cup of food in the morning and 1 cup at night. We use a measuring cup to scoop her dog food. Well, when we got back from our trip, my dog was three times the size she was when we left.
She was feeding her the entire measuring cup of food morning and night. 5 cups per day!!
My dog has diarreah, but seems to be alright. We are cutting her food to 1/2 cup,twice a day to get her back to normal.
I am thankful that her little stomach did not explode! My sister in law has watched her several times in the past, I guess she forgot how to feed her!
I am still worried about my dog. It has been a day since we have been back, should I still be worried? Or just keep her on the diet until she gets back to normal....
Thanks

When connectng Sony camera to computer it downloads from the memory stick onto Cyberview (Sony's software), and also into My Pictures simultaneously. It seems I can't move pictures from Cyberview. What I do is download pictures from My Pictures to computers CD-ROM. And from there put them on a CD. Question is when pictures go from my camera into My Pictures is it still a 6 megapixel shot (the way my camera took shot or did it downsize to jpeg? On the CD all my info is there as to focal length, shutter speed, aperture, to time of day shot was taken.
