I am in a three month contract with my real estate agent at four percent commission for his company and I want to fire him because I don't think he is doing enough to sell my house. He is always making me excuses that the market is slow but I know my house can sell because my house is beautiful. I've already had my house listed with this guy for over a month now and I haven't even gotten an offer on it. My agent keeps telling me that he has put it on the MLS and realtor.com and sent out flyers for my home and spoken with other agents about it but I don't think that is enough. He has only done six open houses for my house and it seems like he wants to do them only occassionally now and I want him to keep doing them because I don't feel he is doing enough to sell my home. What can I do to fire him? I am in a three month contract with him and I am two months away before it expires, but i want to fire him now. what can i do?

When I was biking today, I found a miniscule rabbit/hare. It's about three and a half inches long, but it's head is rather large for its body. It may have been washed out of its burrow by the rain which was coming down in torrents. Its eyes aren't opened yet, and it can barely stand balanced. We put it in a shoebox with grass and leaves at first, feeding it 2% milk drop by drop. We also let it suck at a damp paper towel. It's sleeping in a cotton sock, and we moved it into a plastic fish tank, softening the bottom with other socks. We put a blue light about seven inches above it. I'm pretty sure it's still weaning. Please tell me how to care for it. We have no idea where its mother/burrow is, and if we knew what creature it was, that might help too. It looks only about five days old; really frail and weak. Please help!! Thanks so much.

Well he kissed a girl but I know he liked her but has always loved me. I broke up with him after he did that.. That was the right thing to do right? We had 6 months and then I broke up with him. He was always a good friend but I do miss him. I'm not going to take him back but should I stay friends with him? HOW DO YOU STAY FRIENDS WITH AN EX??

I'm buying a house that has a home made pool dug in the ground. It is lined with cinderblock brick and painted blue. Would it be more affordable to fill in the hole (approximately 1200 cubic feet) or pay a contractor to fix it and permit it? I know alot about many trades, unfortunately im dumbed with this one. Is it a DIY possibility to fix it?

When I was driving my Honda Accord 1992 today and shut it down in front of a store, it wouldn't start up on me again. I opened the hood and tried to figure out what it could be. I thought that it could be the battery, so I asked somebody for a boost and it worked - the car started up again. I drove around for a bit but as soon as I shut it down again, it wouldn't start up. My questions is whether it is the battery or the alternator. I keep thinkng that it might be the alternator because whenever the battery died on me in the past, I could see that it was dying out over a period of time not suddenly like this. Any advice??

I just got a 2000 Bonneville with 76000 miles. I don't know what type of oil is in it. I've been asking around and getting different opinions on wether or not I can use synthetic motor oil. Also, Is it possible to tell what type of oil is in it?

I've never pawned anything before, and so I don't really know how it works. Are these things even "pawnable"?

I have a good husband. He is a good father to my one year old daughter, he helps me clean sometimes, and he is mostly sensitive to my feelings. However, he is generally uninterested in me unless he wants to have sex. He will not talk to me for hours at a time, and I feel like I am living with a miserable person. When we go out with my family he is bored and unexcitable. He does not take me on dates or surprise me with any romantic gestures. I am 22 and he is 30, and while at first i didnt think age was an issue, I am begining to think that I am too young for him. I want to have fun, especially after a difficult year working full time and taking care of a growing baby. I feel like the best solution is to separate, because it is too late to work on our marriage. I cheated on him. (he's unaware ) I do not feel I am a bad person for what I did, I think I have just given up on my marriage. He says he will change, and I believe him, I just dont know if I care anymore.

My husband and I both work for the same employer, and have a 4 yr. old son. Our employer wants us to go on a grueling 3 wk. overseas trip, but we asked that one of us be excused, unpaid, so that we could stay home with our son. We were denied. We believe our son is too young to be without one of us for so long, and we also believe that he will suffer greatly on such a demanding itinerary (12,000 miles of travel over 20 days.) Anyone have any ideas for us? We believe that both options would be damaging to the health of our family. How can we get our employer to let one of us out of this trip? Thanks in advance.

I am a newcomer to Yahoo Answers. Since participating for the past few days, I am now convinced that the Internet will be the downfall of many souls who otherwise would have never been willing to voice their lies and slanders, slanders for which they will one day give an account.

I am convinced there are no more evident sign of the degradation of man and his hopeless condition than the proliferation and even exaltation of cowardice via this forum.

I am further convinced that many others are being led astray in honoring or following the anonymous siren songs of comfortable cowards who, in another age, would not have dared to lift their heads or their voices before real men of honor.

It is a Sign of the Times, and it is sad to behold.

I'm a long-time Simpson's fan. The show has really dropped off in humor and creativity in the last couple of seasons. I was hoping the movie would recapture some of the shows glory days, but it was just a long, drawn out version of some of the more recent shows, complete with all the P.C. that has replaced the humor. What do you think?
