Hi. Im a recovering alcoholic clean for nearly 6 mths, & it was my major addiction causing me to lose a lot in life. I finally cleaned myself up in a rehab & am in recovery. However, I was also addicted to gambling, but not as hardcore as in alcoholic. I dont wanna drink but sorta feel like gambling. Is it OK or is it considered as a relapse if I start gambling. Are both addictions interrelated or independent of each other?

I just noticed another poster's question about this, and so I'm curious as to what you all think. I'm very interested to hear your responses.

Btw, I also include atheists and agnostics in this question --- I hope that belief system is an okay to word that, I wasn't sure how to say it!

We live in SF bay area. Our house is 3bd and 3 full ba. We have a big den downstairs that could potentially be partitianed into two rooms: a play room and a 4th bedroom. We are just wondering how much value it adds to do this if we decide to sell in a year or two.
Thanks in advance.

You can get up to ten years in prison if found guilty if this goes to trial -otherwise you get a chance for 6 months house arrest, ('can leave the house for work and with your kids except for night time) probation, community service, anger management classes, sensitivity classes and the risk of deportation back to a violent poor third world Country. You have never done anything wrong before this in your life-'never even got a traffic ticket and even used to work in law enforcement.
Would you take the risk and go to trial and risk getting ten years in prison and being separated from your young kids and mentally handicapped child? Or accept a criminal record and risk of deportation with your kids and a bleak future? You really do not think you are guilty of a crime but the other person was badly injured and your injuries were minor in comparison. Please do not judge or be nasty-just advise me what you would do if this happened to you -ty.

Anyone who judges another genre without any real deep knowledge of the other is an idiot.

Another thing is that most people associate the music they listen to with who their core is. Core being their personality and the friends they associate with. This in itself is ignorant for it hinders a person to grow and learn new and exciting ways to make music."

I love all music genres. I don't think that all music is good within all genres, but I would never hate a genre based on one or a few encounters with a certain genre or genres.

It's Ridiculos

When I was 16 years old & a junior in high school, I was busted by my momma smoking pot (weed) with my friends & when my pops came in from work, she told him. This time--he didn't ground me. . . He went outside & broke what seemed like one of the longest & thinnest switch I ever seen & ordered me to what he called his tool shed. He then blocked its doorway with me in there & OH MY GOD. . . When he got through with me--I was covered in welts & cuts but can say that til this day, at 40 years old, I have never smoked anything or had the urge to. WHY? Because of that switch whipping my pops gave me (being that he hadn't whipped me since I was around 10 or 11). Now, my son has just turned 16 a couple of months ago & guess what? His football coach busted him smoking pot (weed) & notified me & his momma. Of course, we are trying to raise our son with new age parenting methods but obviously--they aren't working. Should I bring him to the "tool shed" like my pops did me?

i'v had a thyroid panel, and been checked for sugar in the urine but the doc says im healthy. I swear I cannot get full and food only feeds the hunger. I eat so much its taking over my life! If i dont eat my stomach growls and i get really dizzy and my lips get chapped. I know this isnt the place for medical questions, but anybody have any experience...for some reason i still think i might be diabetic.

I have just been informed that I have a subseptate uterus and while I was once happy my pregnancy is progressing as per normal (im 9 weeks) all of a sudden now I am gripped with fear. Is it likely I will lose my much longed for baby? Or give birth premature? Has anyone else been told they have a subseptate uterus & had healthy pregnancies? Im terrified.
Thanks in advance :)

God created man in His image.

God is perfect and infallible and cannot make mistakes.

God gave man free will including the ability to make mistakes.
