Wow. This makes me very sad. Your contributions are great, and not just the political stuff. Eyeglasses and vision, too!! I hope you just cut back a bit, but continue asking and answering questions. Just go at a slower pace, maybe. Regardless of what you decide about AB, of course I wish...

Sun, 05 Oct 2008 20:17:02 -0700

Would you recommend the use of eye protection and lose fitting rubber gloves when using muriatic acid to clean bathroom tiles at home?

Wow. Why are you using muriatic acid, aka hydrochloric acid, on bathroom tiles? Won't it ruin whatever finish is on the tiles? That stuff eats asphalt. I've used it to clean heavy soap scum off glass though, so yeah, it's definitely an effective cleaner. Make sure you run a...

I can't find what I typed a couple/few days ago in the "about me" space. Do others see this but not me or did I screw up somehow?

I don't see it. The "About me" section of your profile isn't there. Did you hit "Update" (at the bottom) after you typed? Sometimes you have to hit it twice. I usually go for three or four times just to make sure the update really sticks.

Answer to Why do people love to watch people get embarrassed / humiliated on reality TV?

Sun, 05 Oct 2008 10:32:39 -0700

Why do people love to watch people get embarrassed / humiliated on reality TV?

Maybe seeing other people get humiliated makes them feel better about themselves. That comes from immaturity and low self-esteem, I think. Or just plain stupidity and a cruel nature.

Answer to Is Sarah Palin "compellingly real in a cooked-up world" or is she just "tacky and low-class"?

Sat, 04 Oct 2008 09:21:12 -0700

Is Sarah Palin "compellingly real in a cooked-up world" or is she just "tacky and low-class"?

She can be both, depending on who you're asking. To her proponents, she's a welcome breath of fresh air on America's national political scene. Her detractors, however, describe her as a bimbo who's out of touch and uninformed. They're probably both right, to some degree....

What would you do if your 11 year old's friend got caught stealing and the friend's parents got mad at your kid for telling the truth when asked by the adult if he saw the other boy steal?

Explain to my kid that he absolutely did the right thing by telling the truth. Sometimes people won't like that, and the ones who don't will criticize him, but he shouldn't lie for popularity's sake. Ask him how he'd feel if he'd lied and accused the other boy - who...

There is a former coworker that I assist financially, I recently gave her $200 to go to Jamaica to wed, my bf told me to stop doing this, because for all I know this woman may have more money than me, she has NEVER paid me back, do you agree?

Did you actually give her the $200? If it was a loan, did she understand that? Regardless, I agree with your boyfriend. Stop giving your money to her. The best rule about loaning money is - never assume you'll get it back. Be pleasantly surprised when you do. That's just how it...

Fri, 03 Oct 2008 10:48:59 -0700

What are the conditions of victory that will end the War on Drugs?

In my opinion, that means no more illegal (read: non-taxable) drugs, so anyone who, for whatever reason, wants to get high, will have to use "approved" (read: taxable) methods. I bet the big liquor companies love the idea of "no more weed" and no, I don't smoke.

I just got an e-mail from the AB staff saying that one of my mod flags was not approved, I looked at the question I flagged as nonsense, and the question had been removed because it *was* nonsense. Has this happened to anyone else?

That's happened to me, yes. I checked the question out and sure enough, it had been rejected as nonsense. I replied by pointing out the rejection, and two minutes later, received another email linking to the newly restored question, LOL.

He already ask her but she dont want to tell him her password,so he want her password what must he do to get it beside asking his wife anymore?

What's wrong with respecting her wishes not to give him her password? It is hers, after all. His wanting it shouldn't be more important than her desire to keep it to herself.

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 12:46:52 -0700

Answer to DO people have to look at Sarah Palin as actually presidential possiblilty due to McCains age?

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 12:34:31 -0700

DO people have to look at Sarah Palin as actually presidential possiblilty due to McCains age?

Who would be Vice-President is always a valid concern, in my opinion. If elected, John McCain, at 72, would be the oldest US President. It seems like a highly stressful job - no, life. The thought of "President President" troubles me.

Neglect is passive abuse, so I'd call what your ex is doing (or not doing) abuse, yes.

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 12:28:34 -0700

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 12:07:40 -0700

Do you often submit in an argument even though you know the other person is wrong, but you wish to keep the peace?

Only when the issue is minor and not worth arguing about. My experience has been that giving in, just to keep peace, is what a doormat does. I lose interest in someone who agrees with me all the time.

Sun, 28 Sep 2008 18:56:36 -0700
