I have a great idea for a new mascot. Sure, we all love the Yamster, but maybe it's time for change. I have been working on a new character - Pepi, the 3 legged poodle. Pepi is from the school of hard knocks, having been born in a dumpster and surviving an early boating accident whilst holidaying the south of France (albeit with a severe head injury and the loss of 1 leg - he wears a prosthetic hind leg now and a metal plate in his head). I feel a lot of people will relate to Pepi because he is not the stereotyped hamster in a karate uniform we are used to. Plus he is open and honest about his pyschological issues and bisexual lifestyle. Would the public warm to him?

I work in the kitchen design industry. I have been in this job for about 3 years. I get phoned, out of the blue, by another kitchen company to ask if I would be interested in a job. This new job would nearly double my wages. The only thing is the job I am in just now is a small family run business with a very close nit staff. I work directly beside my bosses and have built up a great relationship with them, they have treated me like family. What is the best way to approach this? Do i just tell them that i have been offered a new job that pays more or do i tell them it is with another kitchen firm? The money is just too good to turn down. Do I have to put what they think about me out of my mind and just do it? or do I play this another way?

When we paint a room we usually paint the ceiling first then we go to paint the walls. I have been decorating and chose different colors for the walls but all the ceilings are white.

No matter what trimmer or brush we use we almost always end up slopping the edges and getting some color on the ceiling. then we have to wait for it to dry and go back and touch up.
Are we doing something wrong? What is the best way to get a clean edge ? We use painters tape for the trim work but I never heard of anyone using it for the entire ceiling.

1 If then you have been raised with Christ, keep looking for the good things of heaven. This is where Christ is seated on the right side of God. 2 Keep your minds thinking about things in heaven. Do not think about things on the earth. 3 You are dead to the things of this world. Your new life is now hidden in God through Christ. 4 Christ is our life. When He comes again, you will also be with Him to share His shining-greatness.
I've been a full on Jesus lover for 56 years but now in my retired days i come so much closer to Him as I have so much more time and I want to know in REALISTIC TERMS. how we keep our bills paid, and houses in order but focusing really totally on God ??? tell me about your experiences or views.

I was recently getting jealous of the female orgasm, being a virgin, taking the medias word for how intense it is. It started to get me down so I got in touch with some friends in the medical profession to get some expert information.

When I asked them if the female orgasm was much more powerful than the male orgasm, and if the media protrayals of it were accurate, they lunged at me! Accusing me of falling for nonsense and exaggerations in pornography and the media.

Apparently the female orgasm in those women who can attain it, in the majority of cases, is more or less equal in strength to the males, but lasts longer and takes longer to achieve.

They said that the media representation of the female orgasm puts stress not only on men who might feel inferior, but the majority of women who cannot obtain these over the top mega orgasms they feel they are supposed to - and many can't have them at all :(

Has anyone else found that the media exaggerates this concept a lot?
