I have a NAVY and a MARINE to keep upbeat while in training.
What are some fun things (and yummy things) they are allowed to have and would also keep them from being too homesick?
They are my brothers, both just graduated High School and just joined now in July 2007.

Thanks a million!!!

We've just got married and passed the first interview (the one for 2 years)... If we divorce now, is she obliged to return to her land or there's some option for her to stay here?

If a person destroys goods, property, vehicles, etc. in the committing of a crime for which they were found guilty then why aren't they or their family held responsible to pay back all the financial loss? Why is it incumbant upon the owners or tax payers? A reasonable mind would conclude that if the criminal is help responsible then there would be less crime. I always wondered why that isn't the case and on what basis it isn't justified to hold people responsible for their actions.

Personally, I think that Barack Obama looks promising, he's radically different from anything that the U.S. has had and, well nothing that the U.S. has had so far has worked.

Please, no party bashing, I don't want to hear what you think is wrong with the other side. I just want to know who you would like to see become the president in '08 and why.

My husband and I both work for the same employer, and have a 4 yr. old son. Our employer wants us to go on a grueling 3 wk. overseas trip, but we asked that one of us be excused, unpaid, so that we could stay home with our son. We were denied. We believe our son is too young to be without one of us for so long, and we also believe that he will suffer greatly on such a demanding itinerary (12,000 miles of travel over 20 days.) Anyone have any ideas for us? We believe that both options would be damaging to the health of our family. How can we get our employer to let one of us out of this trip? Thanks in advance.

My sister wants to send him a camera and film, but I don't know what we are allowed to send. Does anyone out there know what we should or should not send?

I need something official from a website or someone stating that my green card is valid even though it was issued before 1989 and does not have an expiration date asap. I'm in the airport and they're not letting me pass the security check point with this greencard, even though I've done it for the past 10 years, and I travel all the time. Any help would be GREAT. . . PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

My sister let her dead-beat son and his family move into a vacant house she had for sale. He is living there rent-free with no lease. Immediately there were problems with damage due to the son & girlfriend fighting. They have not lived there for over 2 weeks now but refuse to remove their belongings. She has someone who is interested in buying the house but the son is telling her that no one can enter the property (not even her) as long as his belongings are there. That he is renting the house and has the same rights as a renter, even though no money has changed hands. Is this correct? To me, she should be able to remove his stuff and go on with her plans to sell the house.

a) If you polled the american people and asked their opinion on how these issues should be resolved, what do you think a good majority (at least 60%) would say to do? In other words what is the will of the people on those 3 issues?

b) What direction do you see that our government and our leaders want to go in regards to those issues

c) reconcile the will of the people and the direction government wants to go. Is there a conflict? why?

My drug test came back negative but there was a "faint-line for THC". I found a medical journal that says NSAIDs may cause false positives for THC. I take Indomethacin and Naproxen. What if my P.O. doesn't accept them as causing false positives? What are my rights when a positive comes up? Do I have a right to get it tested in a laboratory to find if it is a false or true positive? I am on probation.

Bring it, you pathetic troll. You got no fist in your glove!

I think you're just another multiple account of an existing conservative troll, anyway. Obviously, you're a "friend" of someone you've already mentioned.

We have YET to see any con pick up the challenge for a live, real-time chat debate.

Perhaps YOU have the coconuts?

Odds are you or one of your friends will just report this anyway, but I figured I'd give you the opportunity to shine.

Drop me a line and we'll talk.
