Arts & Humanities - 9 January 2007

Honestly, I really don't mind reading, heck I do it all the time with the video games I play and the subtitles from foreign films, but I want to know more and read a good story. I know my ability to read sucks but I want change that and I want to be able to read without going to sleep. Being a college student I think that it's a neccessary ability.

Oh and any tips for keeping me awake while I read would be great. Thanks in advance.

Time to bid Farwell
Ring a bell, well
This would be the last time
Being alive was a crime
So, I am expressing my self in rhymes

Time to bid farewell
We really did make a good pair
Anyway, Take care
I know, Life is unfair
Just remember me in despair
Remember my kiss
That will bring you bliss
I promise,
I hope so,
Now I have to go
Just like the wind blow
I will remember the way you kissed
But I Swear
YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!!!!

I am a tolerant, loving and accepting person who usually looks for the best in everyone.But more & more recently, I find myself recoiling almost in horror from people who admit they suscribe to a religious faith.I find it difficult to talk to them&if I'm around them I find myself obsessing about what could possibly be going on in their minds.I know rationally that most religious people are lovely,but can't stop myself taking religious faith as a stark signal of the continuing degeneration of the human species&it terrifies me to be so prejudiced as well as to realise that so may throw commo sense & rationality,the thigs which make us human, completely out the window.It's not belief in God or 'something else' that bothers me, it's the belief i organised religion.Does anyone else have this problem or can suggest how to remedy it?(Not by taking up Jesus ito my heart or whatever, but in a nice secular way that ca help me be a better human being)

I've had great success doing geneology for my family...for years. Until now...I'm STUCK!

I know all about a person who was born in 1865...his life, marriage, date of death, etc.
However, I am totally unable to find out who his parents are. All that I know is that they came from Germany, and he was born in Ohio.

Without birth records (weren't available at the time), or clear information on ANY of the images I have obtained, what is the best way to try to track down his parents?

Even the death records did not have the information, unfortunately.

Not quite everything but most things....eg being 24 and not having a boyfriend (due to having been with the wrong one for 4 years and then needing two years to recover from the break up and now at this age finding it harder to find a good man because the good ones are in commited relationships and the single ones are single because they have something wrong with them, being shy and not happy with my social and family life, not being where I want to with my career or my relationships with my work collegues.

Do you see a shrink or cast a spell for good luck or just think positive and believe that everything will change or do you do a combination of things?
