It occurs to me that the government has absolutely no right to legislate what a business owner can or can't allow in their own establishment. This used to be a free country; but not any more. I could live or own a business in communist China, and there would not be this amount of government invasion in how I chose to run my business. Can we possibly have less government and not the invasive amount we have now? In parts of Illinois it's illegal for a restaurant to serve fois gras-how completely absurd. The owner of a business absolutely has the right to make their own choices! If you don't want smoke or fois gras, go to a non-smoking or fois gras free restaurant!

One of my old German handbooks say Germans reserve du for very few occasions. But when I speak in German they never want to use Sie(formal) but informal Du(informal).

Please only answer if you are native or have lived in Germany or other German speaking countries for some time.

I think it is. I have heard stories about tigers in India. People in India have seen Tigers leap over 6ft fences with a 1,000 lb cow in its mouth! Of course many know it alls are saying thats impossible. Just like they are saying it is impossible for a Siberian Tiger to clear a 20 ft wall at a zoo. That is what I think happened. Nobody is gonna let a tiger out knowing that they themselves can easily be killed. These animals have killed Grizzly Bears, 29 ft Reticulated Pythons, Crocodiles, and even elephants! Many tests that are done on animals, such as bite force, leaping ability or what not, are done when the animal isn't giving a 100% of what it is able to. The Tiger is second to the cougar (supposedly) in leaping ability. The Cougar can leap the lenght and height of a school bus. But these experiments have flaws I think. The people in India have contradicted alot of what biologists say. This Tiger got out because it leaped out! Nobody is stupid enough to let a mean Tiger out!

when you realize your stock is losing money repeatedly and want to sell it, does the leftover money get paid back from the company that you invested in? or does it come from somewhere else? are you guaranteed to be able to get whatever is leftover returned back to you?

i've never invested in stocks before but i am interested in reading and learning about how everything works, and may possibly want to invest through a company such as Charles Schwab or Fidelity.

any other advice you have would be much appreciated, such as where to begin, etc.

Ok, I'm a guy and do wear girl clothes. My parents are fine with it and so are my friends. I'm very popular. My grandparents are VERY strong Christians and they say it's inappropriate. I actually in the Christmas choir for my school and I was wearing a Santa dress. After the concert alot of my friends were saying I did a really good job on my solo and my grandparents came up and all they did was scold me. I actualy got a really nice dress for Christmas from my girlfriend and they freaked out.
What should I do?

I am planning a 40th birthday party for my sister in Feburary.
I was thinking of a Friday night or a Saturday daytime.
With family and children. My question is: What is a modern way to celebrate is it still all black with 40s gifts or has it changed?

Alright here's the deal-

2 Months ago I had bronchitis. I needed to be checked out immediately, so I didn't get to see my regular doctor. She presecribed me a liquid form of medicine with codeine in it which really helped.

I called my regular doc today, because I think I have it again. So, he presribed me medicine over the phone for it. (saved me a trip there since I don't have health insurance)

I go to walgreens to pick it up, and I was confused because it was $35, but figured that since I just switched pharmacys the price must've gone up.

I get home and it's tablets (used for bronchitis but not what I wanted..way too pricey and plus, if you are sexually active, you have a greater chance of getting pregnant while on the pill). NOT what I wanted. Would I be able to exchange these for the liquid form do you think?
