I have an exterior wall made out of 12" cinder blocks in my basement. its showing daylight through some of the vertical gaps between bricks towards the top of the wall.

I want to seal them up for the winter. I was considering painting them, jamming caulking in there, or just putting some sort of plaster over the visible gaps.

I'm a renter, my landlord said to just paint over the brick.

I'm looking for a stop gap solution to last 1-3 years, so don't tell me to strip the mortar from between the bricks & remortar.

These two girls I know were drunk at a party and they tried feminism. All the guys seemed to like it. They both said it was fun but not really their thing. Should they all try it?

Alright, so SAW IV is coming out soon. I've been waiting pretty much since SAW III for it. Thing is, i've only seen the past 3 on DVD, but i'd like to see SAW IV in the theatre, just for the experience. Problem is, i'm only 15. Is it worth trying to get in? Or can i be punished for it?

If you do, did you discover them through Bob Dylan? Or did you not know that Jakob Dylan was Bob Dylan's son when you started listening to them?

This is specifically aimed at Theists who believe in heaven and hell.

Mr.200Monkeys asked about people in heaven missing loved ones who had gone to hell. ( http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071004125627AAqNBeM ) The general Christian response was that there will be "no more sadness" and that people in heaven forget about their absent loved ones and do not remember their lives with them.

Of course, people in heaven are also said to be perfected, and no longer plagued with sins.

My question, which I have had for a very long time now, is how this idea of a self which has lost its prior memories and also no longer has those "quirks" of personality which are more or less a conglomeration of small bad habits and imperfections .... in what ways is this "new self" still "the same person" as the original believer?

Obviously, bodily continuity can't be the underlying sameness, as it might be with alzheimers or other such memory/personality loss. . . .

Okay, I know this is the type of question that begs for people to call it racist and ignorant and that all babies are beautiful. Blah blah blah. But I really am curious. I find MORE brown babies to be cuter thn white babies. NOT ALL!! (trust me... I've seen some ugly babies of all colors).

Really. I'm not looking to start a race war here. I mean, can't people have a PREFERENCE or a LEANING? So check the politically correct answers at the door please. If you don't like the question, you can just move on.I'm just curious, which color babies do you find to be cuter????

The other night I called the police because my neighbors band was playing until 9 or 10 at night. They said that they weren't going to send anyone out because it is a low income area and they don't want to cause undo hardship. I have called multiple times and I keep getting the same answer.
