I would like to found a charity. The concept is simple. I currently collect aluminum, originally soda can tops then the cans themselves, recycle them, and have the proceeds donated to Shriners Burns Hospitals.

My efforts have grown in size to a point that I am incurring higher personal costs than I would like. The philanthropy makes me feel good but I would like to be able to write off the expenses I am icurring such as raw materials for collection bins that I place at local businesses and schools as well as truck rentals to perform the collecting.

Do any of you know which government body I might contact to file for non-profit status? Or, given that my objective is simply to be able to write off my work as a charitabe donation is this even the route I want to take? All feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My foot is swollen and black and blue all the way around. It hurts so bad that I had to sit down at the mall today b/c I felt like I was about to vomit and cry at the same time. I can walk on it but when I put weight on it, the pain is just unbearable. I dont know what else it could be besides a broken or fractured bone. Should I go right to the er now or will I be ok to wait untill tommorow to see if I can get a doctor appointment? Thanks!

Maybe when they crucified him, it was a metaphor for talking smack about him. I've heard a lot of people say that a person is being "crucified" when you really talk bad about em. Whatcha think?

If lightning hits your power lines would it cause all your circuit breakers to flip off or could it just cause one of them to flip off?

There were a lot of storms and lightning real close to our house and one of the circuit breakers turned off during the night and cannot be reset. The first time I reset it, it stayed in the on position for several seconds and then switched off. Now it switches back off immediately and sparks right behind the switch.

Any ideas what the problem could be? Does this sound like storm damage or something else?

The Soldier’s family prayer

The never ending days and nights
We sit and cry while they stand and fight
The lonely letters, a phone call now and then
They tell us they’ll be home we just don’t know when

They represent all that is good in this land
While they fight for freedom in the hot, dry sand
They give too much, sometimes they give all
Because sometimes even heroes can fall.

So far away with their homes on their mind
And the loving families that they left behind
Fighting a war that never seems to end
With innocent people and a country to defend

We should all be grateful that they are there
So we can live our lives without a care
So thanks to the families of the soldiers who fight
And thanks to the soldiers for doing what’s right.

May god keep each and every one of you near
And take care of the ones that you hold so dear
No matter how far your loved ones may roam
I pray for each one a safe return home.

My father in law says that we should have dinner at 4:30-5, well i have 5 kids who are all in different sports that play on differnet nights or at different times, and my husband works nights so he gets up at about 6-8 so our dinner times vary depending on the sports being played, and the other stuff we have scheduled, and he constantly ragging me about eating late, the kids go to bed between 8 and 9, so we always have dinner before that time, but he thinks we should stay on a strict schedule and that schedule should be set by him, so what do you think should we be having dinner at the time he says fit, or should we have it at the time we can get around to it?

I have always worn pantyhose with my skirt suits for work each day at the office. For some reason, my hubby developed a pretty intense fascination about it. So as I was getting ready for work one day, I asked him about it and he told me that he found it alluring and sensual when I wear pantyhose and that he was curious to experience that feeling. So I hiked up my skirt, eased out of my sheers, handed them to him, and told him to slip them on. I wasn't sure if he would actually do it, but with a little encouragement, he did. I let him keep them on for a few minutes and he went absolutely crazy over the way they felt, which I thought was kind of neat.
Now hes asked a few more times recently for me to let him wear them again. I don't want to deny it to him because of how fascinated he is and how much he liked it that one time. Plus he was so honest about sharing his feelings with me about his curiousity. Is there any harm to letting him do it again? Has anyone else encountered this?
