I was wondering if there is anyone that is close to the San Francisco Bay Area. That is great at the APFT I just enlisted and I need to pass the APFT in April so that I can be put on the promo board. Also because I need to go to 31B school so if there is anyone or anyone that has any pointers on dieting or working out that would be great.
Thanks

Both sides, kids, the name calling and hate is just getting worse. Does anyone really think that by calling someone on the other side of the aisle names will convince them to vote your way? Because, honestly, isn't that what it's about? Convincing others to vote like you do so your man/woman wins? Hate and name calling just energizes the base of the other side and makes them MORE likely to vote against you. It's about numbers. Does anyone see that the name calling reinforces everything the other side thinks about you? Or is it just me?

I sublet from the original renter for 2 weeks before beginning my lease on December 15. After calling the manager several times he said that he would slip a lease under my door. Nothing was done for a week until he called me and left me a message saying that now the utilities will be changing in February and he needs to discuss that with me first. Those weren't the terms we discussed when I talked to him about the lease to begin with. Now it has been nearly 2 weeks and I STILL haven't gotten a lease or how much I owe him for the rest of the month in December. He has been very rude and terrible at returning messages. What are my rights?And do you think it's a little shady that he demands $25 in CASH for lockouts?

I thought he had rabbies but it was drugs & I found them in his room. He lived with me 3 days until I became strange about the foam from his mouth and his anger. I called 911 thanks to the yahoo answer people. They took him to jail when he got home and he yelled at me "you will pay!!" Is there anything I can do to protect myself from this crazy man? I have a gun but I never shot it and dont know how to put bullets in it. Should I change the locks on my doors? i am really worried about this crazed man.

Are Bush supporters so frail of ego that they can't take criticism of their number one guy?

It appears more media and candidates are paying MORE attention to the South Carolina primary of Jan 26 than the EARLIER Nevada primary of Jan 19. Nevada has more delegates than New Hampshire.

This question was inspired by the countless posts from Liberals who presume that all Conservatives simply must get their beliefs from right-wing radio or FoxNews . The ideology that it must be impossible for anyone to even have Conservative beliefs without there being a culprit involved . A Limbaugh, a Drudge, an O'Reilly, a Hannity . . . .. UTTER NONSENSE .
Then, in an effort to further diminish the veracity of a Conservative view, some liberals will tread upon us personally by proclaiming that we're all NASCAR fans, or hillbillies, trailer-trash, and uneducated . BTW, on a really funny note, they also claim that Conservatives are all corporate people and have all the money, while at the same time claiming that they themselves are poor. . . . . . so how does that jive with who does and does not live in a trailer ? LOL . And how does living in a trailer translate into being either Conservative or Liberal ? LOL.

Do Liberals Understand Conservatives ?

If you could provide a regulation to find it that would be terrific! The bronze star was already awarded and now our commander wants to give him a MSM too.

"Buffett cited himself, the third-richest person in the world, as an example. Last year, Buffett said, he was taxed at 17.7 percent on his taxable income of more than $46 million. His receptionist was taxed at about 30 percent."

What should the GOP do to relieve more of this undue burden from the shoulders of the rich?

ALSO, what percentage did a person making $75K have to pay for 2006?

It seems to me, that it already has. Bush's poll numbers
have been rather steady at best. Due to Bhutto's
assassination, the feeling towards the war in Iraq will
get worse. And according to Ron Paul, we should try
to pull out, and get out of their affairs. Period. Of course
Hillary Clinton's bid will go even higher. She was right,
the entire time. But you GOPer's did not get that.
Saying that there is tremendous progress in Iraq, when
they are truly on the verge of a civil war. Given the
current circumstances. President Yar Adua, was shocked
and saddened by what happened. He has a failed policy
just like Bush, which means no momentum for the
Republican Party politically. Seems like all this man,
Bush, touches turns to mush, not gold. Will Bhutto's
death hurt Republicans chance for redemption ?
Or the White House ? Best answer wins. ~~~

I have noticed that for every question I answer, someone always gives me a thumbs down. Is it because I answer honestly or is it because my husband is from Mexico? Not that it hurts my feelings or anything. I believe the public should be educated and will answer honestly to those with serious questions.

You don't just answer random questions about military camps in iraq, you dont know if that person is a terrorist or not. I'm in the ARMY and i'm just looking out for the safty of "legal" american citizens.
P.S
I still want an answer to my question.

A saw something on the net a few months ago about this man who's father had set up bills and accounts in his son's name using his social security number.

This kid's mom hasn't been in his life in over a year. She's never had a job and leeches off the government, so I wouldn't put this past her. I'm probably just being paranoid, but this telemarketer company just called and asked for him. I told her he is 7, and she said she's take him off the list. I don't know what company or what she was calling from.

Like I said, I'm probably being paranoid, but I want to be safe about it for his sake.

Not only do they save lives but put thier OWN lives on the line wich doctors DONT do. I think if we paid the police, fireman and other people that are out there saving lives as much as doctors there would be more people wanting to do the job and maybe even less crime

Had banking overdraft problems. They said they would fix one of them and when I tried to explain over the phone how the second was linked and that the other customer service rep told me if I fixed the major one then it should be taken care, he wouldnt listen. He said my local branch can only handle the second one which may be true but when I asked to speak to another customer service rep or a supervisor that wasnt as nasty without saying it that way he denied me and threatened me by saying if I dont stop asking he would take back the credit he already issued. Is that illegal?
