Cliche

10 points for the first right answer.

This cliche is used to describe someone who is out of control, and careening about in a drunken manner. It has been derived from an old nautical term used to describe a ship which is out of control and running free. The lack of control in the case of the ship, was due to the ropes, which held the corners of the sail, coming unfastened.

I am going to college...and their book store is expensive. Can I buy online the same book from amazon? Is that against my school's rules?

I am really interested in going back to school. It is inevitable, a college education is minimally required for most decent jobs, especially in CA. I work full time. I make $24/hr doing a very tedious and stressful job. I cry almost everyday when it is time to go to work. I can not see myself doing this job too much longer. I am considering quitting and sacrificing the highest paying job I have ever had in order to further my education. (deferred gratification) I just do not know the first thing about how I will finance my education. Unfortunately I have no savings. I am single , no children or major responsiblities. I could relocate if necessary. My goal is to pursue my education FULL time. Can anyone suggest the best route to take for obtaining the information I need. And now, the "stupid question"....Is it necessary that I get a job at all while going to college, or can I live like some students out of high school, off of loans and scholarships? Is cost of living included ?

i have been jobless for the past 2 mths plus ( i left my job becoz it doesn't offer me career opportunities) and ppl have been pestering me not to be choosy. I want a longtime job, not a job in which i work for a year or two and get out of it when i feel bored working there.

To top it off, my loved ones seems to think that i am not putting any effort in searching for a job (God knows i tried so hard) but there are some who totally understand how i feel. I don't want to be branded lazy! How can i make myself feel assured?

I have a very creepy sounding tape that came over on my answering machine one night.My sister and I think it sounds like Aliens talking back and forth with each other.Is there anyone who could tell us where we may be able to take it and find out what these sounds are?If you have seen the Mel Gibson movie Signs, it sounds a little like the noise that was coming from the baby montor in that movie.Everyone laughs at us until they hear the tape then they are as creeped-out as we are.By the way the answering machine is digital(some people seem to think that makes a difference.)
