Last March some of my young customers cut my long hair to donate to one of those programs that make wigs for cancer victims. My hair grows rapidly, so I said okay. I got scalped. It was hair today, gone tomorrow, with nothing left but skin, but they had fun. I shaved off my beard to match. Over the next couple of weeks, I had more female customers, granted most of which were drank, coming on to me, rubbing my head, and rubbing up against me. It was like I was wearing a female magnet. Now, I'm not a stud by any account. I'm over 50, very over weight, and I've been through two semi truck wrecks with significant injuries. My arms have the scares of a life of a working man, and I have no teeth, since I can't afford dentures. I would not even consider taking advantage of any of these women, not only because it's unethical and can cause problem with my business, but with my injuries, it's simply not possible. So, what is it about a bold head that attratcs women?

Speeding, jaywalking, copying a movie on a VCR, shoplifting, embezzling?

What is the worst thing you have done either intentionally or unintentionally?

(Years ago I broke some BIG company windows after getting fired - it's now well beyond the statute of limitations)

It seems like forever that i've been having bad dreams. I don't remember the last time i had a good dream! And what makes it so much worse is that they are all so real. I can't really explain what it is like but i'm sure other people have the same problem. I thought it was just because i always have too much on my mind but this is getting rediculous and i'm tired of it. I wake up with the covers everywhere and i'm sprawled out in the strangest postions. I have a retainer and i can't tell you how many times i've woken up with it on the floor across the room ir even laying on top of it. I'm going insane PLEASE HELP if you can!! THANK YOU!!

and p.s. sorry this is so long!

The reason I'm asking this question is because I took The Work Keys Assessment test about two months ago because it's one of the requirements to get into the Carpenters apprenticeship program. You had to score a level 4 in order to go on to the next step. There was like 4 different tests. Math and Teamwork were two of them. I scored a level 6 on the math part and a level 3 on the teamwork part. This assessment is administered by video and contains twelve teamwork scenarios, each accompanied by three multiple-choice items. The scenarios and items are based on actual demands of the workplace. Selections take the form of video presentations of teams in various workplace settings with a variety of problems or requirements. Examinees must identify the most appropriate teamwork responses to specific situations. I chose the answers that would cause the least amount of conflict, so I don't understand why I failed this part.

Why do people get so upset over the littlest things. Someoby spilling coffee on your shirt, getting your jig-saw puzzle scrambles up, getting your chess game knocked over...the list goes on....but why do people get so angry over things like that? Even if the problem is a litlle bit bigger than a chess game...don't they realize that it's not even going to matter in twenty years anyway?! Why can't more people just laugh and say, "ahh, that's life." or "It happens." or just laugh at problems or accients? Why are we so stressed and uptight all the time?

I was wondering if anyone have the same problem I have. I have a really hard time communicating my thoughts and opinions to people but when I write them down, it comes out perfectly! I think I have this problem because when growing up in my household, it was not permitted for you to have your say and opinions and you just had to do whatever you were told or be punished. If anyone has gone through and conquered their communication problem, please share on how you were able to do it. It will be greatly appreciated.

It appears the level of human male testosterone on the planet is at danger levels. Medically reducing this level at a designated age, before he reaches full maturity, may temper the testosterone-driven urge to destroy the human race and our planet. Is it a viable theory?

Often enough times, if one reads the results of a study or statistical fact that favors either sex, (even if just in perception) it is considered sexest and rejected. However, does a sexist fact make the fact anly less true? For instance, (these are merely examples):

- Most serial killers are male.
- 100% of all pregnancies occur to women (lol)
- Women are far more prone to breast cancer than men
- On average women live longer than men by 5 years, (as of 2006).
- Most crimes are commited by men
- Most advance mathematicians, programmers, and engineers are men
- In the Boston Marathon, the males are faster than the females by minutes, (tens of minutes) consistantly

Remember, these are merely examples. They may not be accurate. The point is, (assuming these facts are true) should these facts be rejected simply because they are sexist?

You try to make a question short, and people make all kinds of assumtions out of that and start telling you what a prick you are..And don't know a single thing about you. Why do we like to judge so much, especially on the net where it's safe and you don't have to see the person's eyes?
Is anyone perfect in here and does anyone has the right to judge others? This is pretty sad. Like Jerry Springer show where one group of red necks laughs at the other.

Thrill seekers: If you have more than one, go ahead and list them.

Doesn't have to be a physical thing either. Even something like quitting school or a good job.
