I have a step-nephew who will be turning 2 next week. To put it bluntly, the kid is spoiled. He has every toy you can imagine and his parents only buy him name-brand clothing. Frankly, I don't see the point of dressing him in $80 shoes if they'll only fit him for a few months at a time. Anyways, this kid does not really get the attention he needs- just toys. I want to get him something educational that he would be interested in enough to use on his own, because I am sure his parents will not (don't) take the time to show him anything. (They are not together- barely 21 year-old partiers who dump him off on their parents) Any suggestions?

Ok I am an 18 male Australian I am having trouble of deciding what I should do for a job now.

I should of probably went on a working holiday at a canadian ski resort but was too dumb to take up the chance this year, I guess I could go for summer and work at a resort and go to a job fair in winter. I should of even got a job in Australia at a ski resort but missed that too. Got to apply april for that

So ideas I am thinking now are whitsunday islands area (in QLD,AUS), apply to some resorts there, try a different program overseas through IEP, OWH or STA travel.

I just want to work as something I really enjoy and have the chance to meet new people. Things like ski lifty, ski instructor... but I can't think of summer jobs or other jobs so help me out please.

It's not like we're all a bunch of Christians. Many of us are Jewish, Islamic, or Atheist. Why do Christians so carelessly assume that everyone is a member of their cult? Don't they know that it's more politically correct to wish someone a happy solstice?

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam.

"Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!"

A smart-*** guy in the back of the room raised his hand and asked, "What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?"

The entire class is reduced to laughter and snickering.

When silence is restored, the teacher smiles knowingly at the student, shakes her head and sweetly says, "Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand."

I want honest answers and please explain why you chose it. If you chose mainstreaming, please explain. If you chose inclusion, please explain. Once again, the inclusion I am talking about is the real one. Not mainstream schools that use the fake inclusion. The "fake" inclusion is when mainstream schools group special needs students who are capable of being in a regular classroom but just need the intensive support along with it. The "fake" inclusion has two teachers in the classroom working together to meet the special needs student. The real inclusion is being used in schools that use the Montessori method. It's when all students are put in the regular classroom and everything (special education services) is brought to the special needs students.

It happened last night (Halloween night). The car just ran over it slowly, and it popped and squelched. I actually covered my eyes when it happened becuase I can;t bear anything in real life that bad. My mate though, he laughed at the exact moment it got squashed...

Would you call him sick?

I am so sick and tired of the jolts I receive all day. Does anyone know why a person would get shocked all day for about 2 weeks straight?? I wear different shoes every day and this doesn't happen to the other people in my office. Everything metal I touch and every person I touch shocks me!! All day long while I'm at work. Could there be a medical reason? My coworkers say something must be wrong...

Tigers really are as big and poofy and soft as they look, and they purr like a freight train going by. You find this out by taking one for a walk. To take a tiger for a walk, you first need a tiger. Tigers fresh from the bush are not recommended for the inexperienced. What you need is one who's used to the procedure. He or she is thus liable to be merely playful, rather than actively irritated. You also need a friend, whom you really, really trust. The friend carries an apple wood cane; apple, or some other wood which will bend under stress rather than shattering. This, friend, is your backup, and the cane is his or her only tool for everything, from knocking stuff out of the way that the tiger is liable to eat, to crowd control, to hooking on and madly hanging on if things go wrong.

What YOU carry is a ten foot length of pass-link chain. This is your leash.

Pass-link chain is the stuff where the links will fit through each other. This is important. You need this so you can hook on a safety clip. The chain is looped about the tiger's neck and acks as a giant choke-chain, but the clip is there to keep a loop of some sort in case things go badly wrong. You carry the chain looped in one hand in a peculiar fashion which permits the whole length of chain to be dragged from your hand without taking your hand and/or arm with it. You practice this beforehand till you're sure you've got it right.

Then you go into the cage with the tiger. Your friend does not. You gauge the tiger's mood and put the leash on the tiger. There isn't a whole lot more to say about this step except to say that that is why your friend is there, OUTside the cage. On your side is the fact that the tiger knows what the leash is for by this time and presumably is largely in favor of the idea.

This is where you find out that tigers are soft and poofy. They are also much, much larger than you had ever dreamed, when you're standing next to one.

Then you take the tiger for a walk. Your friend walks in front with the cane to clear the way. You walk with the tiger at your side, keeping pretty good control and letting the tiger know that you are Paying Attention, because if the tiger thinks you are not Paying Attention, it will do what housecats do, let you know that you should be Paying Attention. Unlike housecats, the tiger is big enough not to have to do anything truly outrageous to rectify the situation. Reaching behind you with one forepaw and sweeping your legs out from under you is generally considered good enough by most tigers. They think this is hilarious. To this extent, tigers differ from housecats in that they seem to have a sense of humor.

It is possible that the tiger will see something that it wants. In this case, the tiger will go where it wants to go, and your job is to stop it. This is generally done by wrapping the chain around something that you pass, as the tiger drags you away. This will slow it down enough for your friend to jump on top of you and grab the chain as you go bulleting across the countryside. The weight of two adult humans will generally slow a tiger down enough to make things manageable, whereas one will not.

It is not usual for the tiger to react to freedom by turning around and turning you into fajitas, though this would actually (at least in the short term) be an eminently practical thing for the tiger to do. They enjoy their fun but are generally not ill-tempered. If they are they don't get taken for walks.

They also purr like a freight train passing. Experts in the field claim that this is not purring, that it means something else, but you couldn't put it by me. Sure sounded like purring, at 16-2/3 RPM, but it sounded like purring.

All in all, an experience I highly recommend as a lifetime source of cocktail party conversation, but it sort of tends to leave you limp for the rest of the day.
