Something has been bothering me, and I was hoping to get some other opinions on the matter. I know we all have our fears.....but do you let them controll your life? Some say it's better to be safe then sorry, but living a life full of "what if's" seems sad. Do you believe in taking the safest route to work , wearing your seat belt, and going the speed limit will keep you safe if a drunk driver smashes into you ? I suppose what I am trying to say is do you believe that we all will die when it's our time or that we should try to protect ourselves in this life to buy as much time as we can?

I want to put a white star on the black pickguard of my bass. I was planning on getting it painted on, but someone said it wouldn't work and suggested I cut out the star on a sheet of adhesive vinyl, where can I get this (in Australia)?

What do we really need to survive: Air, water, food, shelter or protection from the weather, the sun and this planet that holds us all. The absence of any one of these, will mean the end our existence for sure. Without gold and money, nothing will physically happen to us. But what do you think will happen? Would the things that we do in our everyday life still make sense?

Honestly. I've been doing this sport for about 5 years now, mostly as a social activity but I also take lessons and practice a LOT. I find that most new dancers are quickly attracted to studios where they spend a bunch of money and burn out. Some with a larger bankroll will go to competitions. These things are like a "kangaroo court" for dance studio businesses. The women (or men) will typically practice choreographed routines for hours on end with their INSTRUCTOR then go show what they've perfected. This does NOT make a good dancer! Perhaps a good showman or woman, NOT a good or skilled dancer. Ballroom, latin, and most all social dances are based in lead and follow and it's a proven fact you can't learn that unless you dance continously with dancers of all levels for years on end and NOT as an instructor! Few if any studios direct students to social dancing which is the ONLY way to be a good dancer of this sort. I understand they did direct students better years ago.

I am looking for literature (important: fiction, not religious of scientific writings), that has some concepts, ideas about how the world was created. It should regard our reality, so Silmarilion and similar, that talks about creation of some imagined realms, are not what I am looking for.

Help! can you tell me a good metaphor and give me advices on to drawing a picture or a graphic that illustrates the metaphor and a good plot that has something to do with the metaphor? Thank-you a metaphor is when you compare two things (an abstract noun with a concrete noun) without using "like" or "as" an example is like this: "imagination is a pencil, it creates anything the heart desires."

Because there was no mention of it in the Bible. I told her the people that wrote the Bible didn't know about freaking CHINA let alone other planets so it's not a very good guide to this subject. The universe is far too vast for mankind to be alone in it, even without solid proof, just logic and common sense. She said any aliens we might encounter were actually demons. I changed the subject. We *can't* be alone, can we?

I lived in italy as a child and am looking for info. on the area i lived in. My father was a captain in the army and the year was 1967, I don't know what the army base is called. I know it was somewhere around Pisa Italy. My mother said something about being about 5 miles from Pisa. I would like to see the houses in that area if possible to find out if the home we lived in is still there. I do know that we were able to bike ride to the beach from the house

I know that Atheists don't believe in gods or goddesses and that you cease to exist upon death but is there a term for an Atheist who doesn't believe in god but does believe in a soul or spirit?
