Me and my buddies really want to go to las vegas but we are under 21, but over the legal age. So we wanted to know if there is anything exciting and cool there to do, for our age group, seeing that we do not have fake ids

ok so we moved in today and i'm having my doubts. it's not about being far away from home, etc. sure i don't like it, but i'm 25 and i can handle it. my problem is that i want to become a certified insructor for theraputic horseback riding. right now i'm at a 4 year university getting a bs in equestrian science. they offer a theraputic riding *class* but it's a pilot class and doesn't give certification. after 4 years, i'd have to spend another year and a half getting certified. or i could skip the BS, get a full refund from the school, and just get certified through the national assocation. i'm already looking at 33k in debt if i complete this first year alone. the certification by itself would only be about 6k. what should i do? i dont want to make the wrong decision. a degree is nice but the certification would allow me to start helping people sooner.

sorry if that's confusing, i can add details to clarify if necessary.

I only ask because I want to be the best at what I do for my Army career. Once you get settled into your first duty station or whatever....do they help you to excel in your job and educate you on how to get to make rank and all of that? Im just worried that I won't get all the information I need off bat and I'll be left to fetch on my own.

I am not immune to chicken pox, I was tested when I was pregnant and told I am not immune. My mom says I did have the chicken pox when I was little though. I am over 20 and know it can be quite bad to get. My question is, I was exposed to someone with shingles, can I catch chicken pox from them, or would I catch shingles? Also how long after exposer should signs show up if I have caught the chicken pox or shingles?

There were some atrocities committed (by both sides) in the Revolutionary War. But, by comparison with the French Revolution, or certainly with the much later Russian Revolution, atrocities committed by soldiers upon one another or upon civilians appear to have been relatively few in both number and scale. This despite the fact that propagandists such as Paine were spewing out inflammatory tracts that could only be interpreted as incitements to extreme brutality.

So, how was it that conduct between enemies in the Revolutionary War was so comparatively restrained?

Or am I simply wrong in judging it to have been restrained?

My fiance is an executive recruiter. We have a beautiful 5 month old son together. The other day we heard an advertisement on the raido about a singles event for professionals with a busy life. He said he wanted to go to "network"... and that in his job, it's all about how many people you know. I told him I didn't want him to go (ESPECIALLY without me), and gave him every logical reason why he shouldn't. It's been a month or so since the discussion, and he tells me the other day that he went anyway... and doesn't care what I think. What do you guys have to say about it??

There were 2 men shipwrecked on this island.The minute they got to the island, one of them started screaming and yelling. "we're going to die! We're going to die! There's no food! no water! We're going to die!"
The second man was propped up against a palm tree and acting so calmly it drove the first man crazy.
"don't you understand?! We're going to die!!!!" the first man said.
"you dont understand. I make $100,000 a week," said the second man.
The first man looked at him quite dumbfounded and asked, "what difference does it make? we're on an island with no food and no water! we're going to die!"
The second man answered," You just don't get it. I make $100,000 a week. I tithe. My pastor will find me!"

Do you think we will ever elect a president by popular vote not electoral votes and why. As we have seen in the past a nominee can loose the presidential bid and win the popular votes. When will we see an elected president by popular vote , not just what Iowa and Florida and the others electoral vote do . Is there any other election you know of that is done in this way ? Don't you think if one candidate gets more votes than another they should win ? I don't care if your rep. dem. or independent . It just seems like the one with the most votes should win !

What is the most important issue of the 2008 election? Hands down in poll after poll it is border security and immigration. Nothing could have made that more apparent than the reactions we saw going into the Iowa Straw Poll over the murder of three Newark, N.J., college students and the shooting of a fourth by an illegal Peruvian national. Immigration officials were aware of this man’s illegal status, the fact that he had a fake social security number, that he had been charged with the rape of a girlfriend’s 5 year old daughter, and an unrelated assault charge and he was allowed to remain in the U.S. to commit these horrible crimes.

We have laws on the book right now that prevent this from happening, but no one wants to enforce them. Excuses from financial burden, to lack of resources, to discrimination are used to prevent illegals from being arrested, charged, or deported. In many cases when an illegal is arrested for a crime, law enforcement officials are ordered by Immigration agencies to immediately release them. Our own Homeland Security and Immigration Departments are failing us and have no remorse or accountability for their actions (or inaction in these cases).

The case mentioned is only one of hundreds of thousands similar to it. The Bush administration would like you to believe that illegals are just poor, good folk looking for a better life. Well that is not always the case. For those who it is the case we must make legal immigration status easier to obtain, but we must secure our borders and we must know who is crossing them. These crimes do not generally affect those people making the decisions for the rest of us. If they did we would have a lot more representation and protection from our government.
If illegal immigrant crime struck the family or friend of our government officials, our immigration laws would be more strictly enforced.

Instead we have President Bush and Congress on HOLIDAY, while our children and families are being raped and murdered. How many 5 year olds and young promising students must we loose to illegal alien crime before they are concerned enough to do something about it. Are you willing to do something about it? I pray it has not already affected you and yours, but whether it has or not you must contact your representatives and demand that our immigration laws be enforced and our borders be secured. We cannot afford to keep paying the price; money cannot pay for the blood already shed.

Jesus is coming back to Earth someday, right?

What do you think that day will be like as you think futuristically?

Think about angels in the sky, the brightness of His coming, the death raised to live from cemeteries all over the world, etc.

Your troublesome past, which you thought you had sort of control over, has been in control all along?
Ive had trouble letting people get close, especially men due to stuff that has happened when i was younger.
The problem is i work in a pub. And the land lord said that this lad (call him x) likes me, and hes a really nice guy, so he'd get x's number for me, and that i should let him take me out sometime. I said no, cause i wouldn't know what it would lead to. The land lord then said, 'well, it might lead to him loving you'. And that absolutely terrified me, ive never been so scared in all my life, i was actually crying at the thought of letting someone get so close.
I know i cant live my life as a solitary spinster, but if ever anyone does get close, the frightened part of me, stuck in the past, pushes them away, and its push is so much stronger than my need for companionship, also i fear being hurt.
I am my own worst enemy, i know.
Does anyone else have this problem??
