Trying to go to Sacramento, would it be faster to jump on the 1 (Coast Highway) and take that to the 405, take the 405 until San Fernando and get back on the 5, or just take the 5 straight through? The traffic is ALWAYS so bad on the 5 in LA. Help!!!

I have a 5am flight from Bodo airport outbound and has concern that taxi in the early hour is expensive and hard to get. Are there accommodation inside the Bodo airport or is there a hotel within walking distance to the airport? If not is the airport condusive for waiting in mid September night? Will it be too cold ?

My family and I want to move to Colorado Springs, and I was wondering what are any suburb towns around that area that are close enough to drive into the city for work and that may be a little less expensive to live in, I am not really used to driving in snow so I don't want to live too far outside of town, or on any bad mountain roads. Also what are the areas of Colorado Springs that are nicer to live in and visit. I am moving from a town that has a pretty high crime rate so I am kind of tired of dealing with scumbags (at least in high numbers) thanks for any help.

My husband and I are taking a short trip to Indianapolis. We're staying at a hotel downtown, and we're looking for some fun stuff to do this weekend. We have a car, so driving around Indy isn't a big deal.

I heard Hootie and the Blowfish were giving a free concert?

What about good restaurants? Bars? Art exhibits? Concerts? Theatre? We're getting there early afternoon on Friday and checking out Monday morning. Thanks!

I'm 15 and moving to the Netherlands, more specifically the Hague area. What is there to do for teens my age? What do people do, where do they shop, etc? Also, if there is anyone here going to ASH, what is it like?

P.S. Don't give me a hard time about the 'where do people shop' thing. I am not a conformist (I go with a totally different style than everyone else) I just want to know what to expect.

Hiya. As many as you know I am an aussie who is living in nz. While i wouldn't live anywhere else, I find this place hilarius.

The other day I went to the supermarket and a check out chick there was eating a cheescake while serving!

When I got home my next door neighbors wife was dacncing with her kids on top of her car (completly sober!)

At my daughters school there is a really weird handshake going around. Instead of hitting hands, they poke each others fingers, poke them selves in the eye, tap on the wrist watches and then put up the peace sign with their fingures and shout "peace and chicken grease"- is that mental or what!

I remember about 8 months ago i was watching a current affair program here called
'Fair Go'. One story was about a lady whos shoes where stolen! She got them from the wearhouse!, lol

I still can't get over how people here drive their cars on to the beach. They never did that in austrlaia, haha..

any you ever had a kiwi encounter like this

Keep in mind that this person is accustomed to living on a tight budget. Also, what is the best area to live for someone who wants to be sort of in the center of things but not really in downtown Nashville (she'll be looking for an apartment)? Thanks!

Whenever Israel is attacked and fights back, there is so much criticism about Israel. I think Israel has a right to attack back in self defense.

I am going on a cruise with my family on October 8 around the Mediterranean, starting from Dover and ending in Barcelona. It will be aboard the new NC ship-the Norwegian Gem. Is anyone here going? And have you heard anything about the ship? Since it will be it's maiden voyage, there are still no reviews online. Are they having special offers/shows because it's the maiden voyage?

Weather details, We are getting married on the cruise ship after our 5 day land tour. How did you pack your wedding gown? I don't know whether to carry with me during the whole 5 day land tour or just have it go directly to the ship. It is not one of those big puffy gowns but does have a small train. Any suggestions please would be of help. We leave this Monday Sept 3, 2007.

A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down

When he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?" The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded. "I threw the brick because no one else would stop..." With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. "It's my brother," he said. ”He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. "Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger. Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.

It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!" God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.
