How can I get FILM acting experience? I want to act in film, and I have some stage experience, but lots of big actors haven't done stage, so how can I find auditions? I live in Chicago. And please don't give me an online audition site like actorsaccess or castingcall because those are scams.

Would you regard the note or act as though nothing had happened and trash the note, realizing that the note may be credible and your life would end shortly?

White flakes like knives
Fall from the sky.
Threatening to take the lives
Of those who lie.

Ripping apart the air.
Shredding the peace.
Destroying all care.
Leaving but a small piece.

Intaking a cold breath,
Searing my lungs and heart,
Freezing life to feel like death,
It will get worse, this is just the start.

One step at a time
Toward a wintry grave.
Uttering one final rhyme
I cannot be saved.

The moon shines bright
Between dark clouds.
I walk out of sight,
Away from the crowds.

Death may prey
In this endless cold.
Now I end this day,
For I will never be old.

Do you wonder if you have made the best decisions for yourself at the many crossroads encountered throughout your life?

Or are you happy with your journey so far?

In every aspects of our lives; love, friends, relationships, beliefs or careers, we all come to various points where we must choose. How do you deliberate on your choices?

Robert Adrey theorized in his book ‘The Killer Ape’ that during evolution early man fragmented into separate heredity types, with many developing aggressive genes and the rest retaining more passive genes. The fragmentation continued, he suggests, as like-minded sub-cultures developed and the different sub-cultures started distancing themselves from each other. And that these gene types were passed down from generation to generation, to the extent of explaining why some cultures and sub-cultures tend to be more aggressive than others.

How predominate a role do you think hereditary genes play into the more violent personality types? Collectively or individually? And if it's strictly an individual trait how would this account for certain cultures tending to be more aggressive than others?

Was fought over slavery?

If yes, why, and what evidence do you have?

If no, why, and why do you think this way?

This isn't my homework, it was just something that came up in lecture, and I was just wondering what your guys's opinion was.

So what do you think.

Do you think the Civil War was fought over slavery, why or why not?

I need a word for a paper I'm doing similar to what yankee was to Americans during the revolution. I think limey might be one but I can't remember if that applied to the British or the Americans. Any other words you guys know would be beautiful :)

I decided to start writing poems. Here's my first, I hope you like it.

Do dreams come true?

I stair at the at night’s sky,
watching the the stars twinkle and the clouds pass by.
I know you are gazing at the heavens and I know what your thinkin,
we’re so far apart but we’re under the same blanket.
The moon is the common ground, a portal between,
where you are and I am, two opposite extreemes.
I gaze waiting for the moon to pull me up and put me down,
next to you, in another place another time anther town.
When you look up and admire all you see,
I hope, I pray, you think of me

A friend and I cooked up a "brilliant" idea to write a book. Now I'm not thinking or planning for publishing at this moment, because we've got a long way to go. However, I'm the only one who's writing. She throws out ideas and I put them into my own words, so it doesn't sound bad. She agrees. She'll say, "So have YOU been working on OUR book?" I really feel like it's turned into my book. So IF it were to be published, in a lucky blue moon, should we split the dough in half? I was thinking more like 60/40. I mean, she's got a good job, she's due to inherit millions, and I've got very little money with 3 kids to support, and she's got no kids. I'm also the one doing 90% of the work. My family says it should be 50/50, even though I am doing most of the work. I never really discussed the revenue with her. I don't want to lose a friendship over this. Am I wrong to be thinking in this direction?
