Have we set ourselves up for another depression because of the weakened US dollar?
This is what very possibly could happen!

Can I take lagal action against my part time employer for making me empty my pockets and letting them look for a missing ipod?? I have a part time job as a valet; there was an ipod that was stolen. My employer has no idea who took it but picked 5 guys and I out of the 30 other valets to search us. They told us you six are all friends so we need to search you. The rest of the valets they just checked in order of there last name. .I just feel that the way that they picked us out of the groups was not right, and also no where when I got hired did it state that they could search me and there are not signs stating this either….what do you think?

My son decided to join and goes off to boot camp 9/14/07. He says after he graduates "A" school he can attend college at home and just do his weekends that they require. My concern is will he be sent to war? I'm not familiar with the military and with all these young men and women losing their lives, it seems to me that they send them out there right after they finish "A" school. Any knowledge on this to ease my mind.

I work at the second largest outlet center in the world. During holidays, as large as the parking lot is, the hundreds of employees that work at the outlet center are required to park about 5 miles away at a train station. If we park at the outlet center, our cars are towed asap. We are, however, provided with buses that constantly pick us up and drop us off.

HOWEVER, the buses at times can get stuck in traffic for up to an hour, and we sometimes wait for about 30 minutes for a bus to pick us up. This is frustrating, especially when we have to sit in traffic again to drive home. A security guard watches our cars, but I often catch him or her sleeping.

Yes, I am happy to have a job that pays me decent, but it is frustrating to go through all of the inconvenience.

Is what the outlet center doing a violation of any type of workers rights?

Where can I find out more information?

Does anyone really think any of our government is in touch with the people no matter what party they belong to? The majority of people in this country want the U.S out of Iraq and neither party is listening.

I went through the first 40 questions in politics. 24 of them were so called "Cons" making asses of themselves or acting like children. 4 were "Libs" doing the same thing. The balance were good questions from both side. So what do so called "cons" hope to accomplish my name calling, insulting people, and claiming, that anyone who disagrees with them hates America? I know as a REAL conservative(look at my Q&A) i am outraged by these Bush lapdogs acting the fool. Why must they embarrass themselves?

Who you think has the best chance of winning?
Who you think is the best candidate available?
Voting against the worst candidate?

Please explain your rationale.

I have a viewpoint but I will not turn this question by telling you what it is. I really want to hear different voices on this. I think all are important.

If someone really wanted to break into it, would the guards know how to fight them off? Would the offender be shot on sight?

I have this crazy neighbor who hates me even though I don't even speak to her. She threatens me and even tries to make a race issue out of it when she is pressed to find one thing that I have acutally done to her. I don't deal with her but I had to call the cops because she started throwing stuff at my car and now I heard her saying she was going to pretend my dog bit her. She even accused me of trying to steal her man which would make her race issue wrong but I have been married and living here for nearly 10 years now and never had a problem with anyone else if there was something going on we would just ask and compromise with others.

I just can't take it anymore and I don't want to move yet we need to save more for a down payment. My dog is dying and she hasn't even notices but yet we apparently torcure her with him even though he is never out with out a leash unless he is behind a six foot fence mostly with us with him other than five minutes or less to go to the bathroom.

This is a probate court order for my son whom is now 18 years old. The attorney that was over his estate has not been very helpful, and I am not sure about the amount she is submitting to court for finalizing, She also has appointed someone else to complete the order since she is no longer practicing law as of Mar 8, 2007. Where can I get good advice?

I work for a company that provides chair massage to companies in Maryland. We address a variety of aches and pains but for the most part just provide a nice 15 minute relaxation massage. There is no insurance work involved. Some of our clients are regulars but we also get many non-repeating ones. The State of Maryland requires that notes be kept on all massages, retained for 5 years and made available to a client upon request. There has been some disagreement as to whether we can write our notes as a running log by shift or if we have to keep a separate note on each person. Any input into this matter would be appreciated.

He is a criminal and I refuse to fear him or respect him, I intend to request a court ordered stay away for him and others to show so.
