I had this best best friend for 7 years, we did everything together. We even had a business together, due to the stress of the business we had a few stupid fight, but we never argued in open. after the shop closed down she joined 'born again' christian and now going out with a 'born again' guy, I haven't seen her for 1 year and started miss her, and i called her, she said that she is no longer interested in being friends since she is now a christian, also she is fully controlled by the boyfriend, wouldn't come out meet me or other friends, she wouldn't even give me her mobile number. Anyway i thought we were best friends, even our stupid disagreement shouldn't matter, however she sounds very determined and never contacted me even for a coffee, what should i do? i never know she could be so cold hearted

this would enable posters to discuss, calmly and rationaly, with the occasional addition of humor, and to pass the felicitations normaly used in polite society- and this would free up the other site for the numpty trolls to violate one another

Think about it.. just because the worlds first discoverers were from the northern hemisphere, why do they think that that side of the world is up? It could be that we are looking at the world upside down. If the first discoverers were from Australia or Africa, would the world map be drawn in reverse?

2 weeks ago my (then 9 month pregnant) cousin and I were in the car and we passed by a new store being put up called BevMo! (Beverages and more, I think) she said the name of the store and said it would be a cute baby name. I laughed and thought she was joking around. She said if she had a boy she would name it that, and I thought she was joking. The next time I saw her was a few days ago after she had her baby, and she said she named him BevMo. I seriously didn't believe her but she got up and showed me the birth certificate and I was basically shocked.
I told her it was weird to name her baby after a beverage dispenser store, and she got mad at me and I haven't talked to her since.
Do you think I was out of line for saying that? I'm not going to lie, its just weird to me.

Just one more question before I go to bed!

What is your personal style? Outdoorsy, sporty, classic, sophisticated, eclectic, preppy, practical, classy, plain jane, arty, vintage, grunge, western, other?
I tend to be eclectic with my clothes, long skirts are my favorite things to dress up in, sometimes "gypsy" style, but I wear jeans and sweatshirts a lot too. And I wear a lot of classic clothes too (at least I did when I went to work every day) and some times lots of leather and cashmere and beads and velvets. I love velvet, esp black. With lots of lace. Vintage sweaters, and skirts. Leather jackets with fringe. High heels and boots, of all kinds, still wear tennis shoes and sandals a lot. But when I am working in my garden or studio I tend to go for grunge and sometimes I think I look like a bag lady, lol! Grubby, too! My jewelry tends to be arty and one of a kind. No tattoos, tho!

That cares more about me worshipping him than me doing good things.
I can live a very moral and productive life helping out my fellow man but according to alot of your beliefs, (christians, muslims, etc) I will still go to hell because I did not believe in your god.
Do you see the absurdity of this logic with your god?

When I got out of prison my son was already twelve. He was raised well by his mother in my absence. He was very involved in community theater. It was at a cast party four years ago that all the questions started coming. After I left the party two other parents went in to a room where all the teens were hanging out. There, on the bed, my son was lying in the arms of a man ten years older than his fourteen. I was told of this the next week and blew my top. I was told how ridiculous I was. This guy just hangs around. He doesn't work. He plays with Barbies. And about eighteen months he started selling weed and giving weed to my son. When I pressed my son's mother to put an end to this BS I ceased being a guest in her house. My son won't talk to me. They all say I'm making trouble out of nothing. I think the guy is a pervert with no regard for the law. I think any MAN would have taken a step back and not been so pushy. Am I crazy? What would a shrink say?

As I mentioned in my last question, I have re-listed this question because I need more specific answers to what to buy and where from (if possible.)

What I also should have mentioned is that I’m in the UK, so that may affect things.

Ok, what I need is a miniature camera. One that can record by itself and NOT need a VRC or pc near-by, doesn’t have to be anything fancy or record long lengths of data.
I have spent hours searching for something that will do the job but whenever I see something promising it turns out that it needs a pc to work and I’m back to square one.

Dear Walter:

I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV . . . as usual. I hadn't gone more than a few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help.

When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was parading in front of the wardrobe mirror dressed in my underwear and high-heel shoes, and he was wearing my make up!

I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years. When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie because he couldn't find his own underwear. But when I asked him about the make-up, he broke down and admitted that he'd been wearing my clothes for six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him.

He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore. Can you please help?

Sincerely,
Mrs. Sheila Lusk

-----------------------------

Dear Sheila:

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it's clear, check the jubilee clips holding the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber.

I hope this helps.
Walter

It hurts really bad when i walk, in the morning its really bad and I am walking like an elderly person lately. sometimes I have to walk so weird and slow as if I had a disability. Im not making fun of anyone but that is how i have been. I have not done anything out of the ordinary, like running or wearing heels, havent been dancing or anything. I dont know. I could cry at times it is so bad. Well, im sure my sweetie will take care of me when he gets back in 2 days from afghanistan. Im trying to be ok. Please help if you have any suggestions. Thank you.
