I mean come on, we all know there are three "O's" left in the puzzle, but these people feel compelled to buy them anyway.
When I see, "S_mewhere _ver The Rainb_w", I don't feel compelled to spend more money, I'm looking for the pot of gold. Please tell me the producers strongly encourage this behavior so the home viewers who may have problems figuring out the puzzles can feel like they win too... Otherwise I suspect these contestants enjoy the possibility of helping the other contestants win or spend hours flushing money down their toilets at home....

I wanted a career in the future say..designing the art on tshirts? Or things of that sort? Im planning to take the courses at a community college, only to get a certificate. There are two courses they offer.."Product Design" and "Graphic Design"..but i'm pretty clueless as to what route i take and where it will lead me jobwise. So can anyone with some experience careerwise advise me on this?

I'd much rather work with a pen than a computer (although im assuming a computer is how its pretty much all done these days). I really like drawing out graphics or logos, But what i aspire for mainly is to design tshirts graphics, maybe my own someday (I dont even know what the occupation is called :/ ) If that doesnt work out..then what other options/jobs might i have with the skill sets i learned? and also how steady would these jobs be financially?

well if you guys could answer these questions and more, itd be cool. help a young'un out.

Need a good one-act play for a mid-sized cast, around 10-15, has to be a clean play because we go to a Christian school and they won't allow any profanity. Also has to be drama, no comedies. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It disappoints me to print out digital camera photos, because they LOOK like they were digital photos. Is there any way to get the same quality as if I had got a disposable camera developed?

Were Japan and Germany allies in WW2? It seems to me that the war between the US and Japan was a totally separate war from WW2. Anyone agree or disagree?

1440, it was time of the Ming dynasty ruling china, and the Temple Name of the emperor was Yingzong. One day, the emperor of Yingzong was inviting the ambassadors to dinner who were from all over west nations such as British, France, Germany and so on. After dinner, the servants found that all of the dishes were gone. The incident had scared all the servants because all of the dishes which used on the dinner were very beautiful and valuable. If some of them were lost or damage, maybe all the servants who involved in the incident would be killed by the rules. After investigation, the servants found out that the disappeared dishes had been stolen by the guests (ambassadors), they had hiden the dishes inside their clothes after eating the foods. In that time, Chinese porcelain were very valuable in the world, all west person who came from the patrician family would like to collect Chinese porcelain which was only for Chinese King using would be more valuable.
You may not laugh at this story, but it's a true story.

Bong or pipe. What is your choice for smoking.. uh what is it called 'tobacco'.. thats right
Pros for pipe: Great for travelling... great for pocket... great for live performances.. could go on.. get the real taste
Cons for pipe: continually wiping the stuff off your tounge.. is a problem in windy environments..
Pros for bong: smooth... of so smooooooth... can have interesting liqids to replace the water (ice, red cordial etc), could go on
Cons of bong: bastards dont change the water enough, arent as easy take places

What do people think. Yes, we do need both, however if you had to only have one for the rest of your life? I'd go the bong!

Okay in January our school is going to have auditions for the musical Godspell...

This Fall I auditioned for the play A Connecticut Yankee in King Arther's Court, but I didn't get a part. Ms. Lip (The Drama teacher) was kind enough to offer me a job on stage crew even though the crew was full. I accepted...I mean atleast I get to be envoled...but I was sad because I really wanted to be on stage.

Now I have another chance.The auditions for Godspell is coming up soon. I am not the best singer in the world, but hey not alot of people at our school are.

I am just worried I won't get a part...I want to be on stage...I hate watching from behind the scenes.

I looked into Godspell and saw it only had 10 parts...which scared me alot...then my friend told me there are alot of chorus parts...is this correct?

How can I show the Drama Teacher I want to be on stage and how can I do the best job and guarente atleast a part.

Thanks!
