Hello, I am off dog racing for the first time tonight at Swindon. What sort of clothes should I wear. Have only ever been horse racing and that is quite formal.
Thanks

I told the wife we cant go as he doesnt seem well, but she insisted as we had no way of getting hold of this friend on the phone. In the end,after much arguing, I told her to go and I stayed behind with the baby. Was it right for her to go and have fun, and leave a baby that seemed unwell behind? Would it have been rude to miss the breakfast engagement under the circumstances?

I recently watched a hilarious (as always) episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Larry David uses the handicapped stall. As he walks out, a man in a wheelchair yells at him for using it and tells him that he's supposed to wait. It's described as "bathroom etiquette."

Who teaches this bathroom etiquette? Is it universal? Has anyone ever even SEEN a handicapped person using one of these stalls?

I pretty much ALWAYS use the handicapped stall. Does this make me a bad person? I do have a handicap. It's called claustrophobia and a fear of small toilets.

Feedback?

Like all grown men, I pick my nose when i'm alone in the elevator and wipe the boogers on the buttons. I put the biggest booger on the most popular button. As the importance of the button decreases, so does the size of the booger. My boss put his finger on a booger inthe elevator and found out that it was me. He said he is considering firing me...what can i do ?

I have the best neighbors in the world. They do so many nice things for me and recently they watched my dog while I was out of town. What is something that I can do for them to show my appreciation? The are a married couple with three girls who are as sweet as they are. I cant spend a ton of money, but I would like to do something nice for them that would not indicate reciprocity... What do you think? THANKS

if he'll be "kicking the seat"? Why would someone say this to me? I had just sat down, it was 5 minutes before the movie started, and I'm pretty sure I didn't kick the seat. It wasn't even his seat, it was the woman next to him, his wife, I think.

It really hurt my feelings and made me feel like I was 2 years old again.

I work at this part time job where i have my own schedule and can leave and go to work whenever i want, and my boss doesn't keep track of my hours. Lately, i've been really selfish and took advantage of him never counting my hours, so i put down hours on my time sheet that i never worked and basically have been stealing hours. So now this week, i skipped a day and put down hours for that day and one of my co-workers told my boss that she didn't see me at work, now im afraid that my boss is going to get suspicious and start asking other co-workers if they saw me there, although they don't really pay too much attention since im practically invisible to everyone else, im afraid that someone might notice i didn't work. What should i do to avoid getting fired, or what should i say to my boss if he questions me about this next time i go to work??? And yes, i already know what i did was wrong, and has already been done so there is nothing that can take it back....ANy good advice??

I think people should just use a bottle or stay at home and take care of your baby. Everyone's eyes shouldn't have to be forced to view it.

We have been staying in a hotel for 2 months for his work in northern CA. I am the only one who drives our Audi. We are very protective of our car because its new. I just went down to walk our dog and discovered 3 light scratches. I try to park in a good spot, but its a hotel and isnt private parking. Im afraid he is going to blame me. He is always bitching how I park the car and how I drive it. What can I say?

OK, why do people just let thier dogs bark with out making any effort to correct or quiet them. My neighbor has a jack russel that barks at EVERYTHING, even when he is home he just lets the dog bark. We live in an apartment with a common entry, so everytime the main door opens, the dog goes nuts! We have a dog too but we have always corrected him so he doesnt bark for "no reason". We complained to the mngmnt company, but it was no help. The neighbor is an attorney, so I dont want to complain too much, plus we all have to live here... BUT WHY do people do this? I think it is so RUDE!

I wish to ask a girl out - we go out on dates regularly, but I am unsure as to what etiquette to observe. Any suggestions of a special way, and one that is polite?

Just because I have a myspace page. Does not mean any jackass can contact me and call me honey and ask to come over. And are their girls out there that are dumb enough to say OK? About half the guys are married. What's up with that?
