- NEW!
Answer to:
If you get an AB message from someone who is brand new to you what do you do? Open it immediately or check out the profile first? Why?
I check all my Personal Messages, Rosie, regardless of whom they are from.
As a Community Leader, I keep myself open to all members, regardless of who they are or how new they may be to me.
I'll check profiles and such only if the situation calls for it. Like if someone sends me spam or such.

I've been gone for a while and just started playing the AB game again, one question: When did it become kosher to answer our own questions?
There have always been people here who have posted answers to some of their own questions, for one reason or another. At least, for as long as I've been here, and that's been about 4 years now. And older members have confirmed this, as well.
One was to allow them to expound on the details of their own question...another was to post their own answer so people could understand their stand on...

Gents: You have invited a girl to dine with you tonight for the first time, what will you wear to impress her?
Baggy pants three sizes too large in the waist so that they hang down just above my knees, exposing my boxer-briefs.
No belt, so that I have to use at least one hand all the time to hold my pants up.
Expensive sneakers that I never lace up and no socks.
Wife-beater T-shirt.
A ball cap turned sideways with all the new-cap stickers and tags on it like something Minnie Pearl would have worn on...

Have you ever been close to wild turkeys? They are very tame, and smell horridly. I couldn't kill one. They are much too nonviolent.
Close? Not intentionally...they're pretty intelligent birds, unlike their retarded domesticated cousins. They're not tame at all, as wild critters go.
And they smell perfectly fine when cooked.

Nautical metaphors and phrases in everyday language: Give us one?
Three sheets to the wind. (Drunk)
In this case, a "sheet" does not refer to a "sail". It refers to the ropes or chains on the lower corners of the sails that hold them in place. "Three sheets" would indicate an unbalanced condition...sails require these particular ropes in pairs or the sails flap about uselessly.

Why does 'answerbag' staff ask questions?
It's nothing more than another input into the site. They are supposed to be "Professionally Researched" questions and answers.
They do irritate some members...but really, they're quite harmless overall. Possibly they irritate so many because this is a social question and answer site, and these questions and answers don't really contribute to the social aspect.

Do you hate Microsoft Vista with all your heart

Nope. Not at all.
Primarily because I never had a computer with Vista on it. My wife's desktop (which I'm no now) was bought Vista compatable...but I told my wife that XP should serve all her needs quite well and trying to upgrade to Vista would be both a waste of time and an invitation to inevitable problems (though possibly minor) while upgrading.

3. Don't trust the other person?
4. Don't like the other person?
5. Feel as if you have to hide anything from them?
Seems to me that it's a huge waste of your valuable time and emotional resources to even get that involved with someone in the first place...not to mention a deception...

What can be done to encourage artists to use language that is inappropriate for younger age groups?
Heh!
I don't think it's a problem getting them to USE inappropriate language with younger groups.
:):)
Have you ever met/talked to a "spook" up close? (CIA/FBI/Secret Service...)
Well, as a submariner, I've been involved on "spook-ops" a number of times. One of the subs I was on was a spec-ops (special operations) boat.

How much are condoms?
A good question!
At least you haven't progressed to the point of asking whether or not you could be pregnant for lack of birth control!

Go to the Walmart website and search "condoms". Prices vary depending on type and brand.

How can I fix a Honda Odyssey transmission fluid leak?
Depends on where the leak is at.
If it's from the transmission pan, take it into the shop and have the transmission fluid and filter changed. This is done through the transmission pan, and they will replace the gasket when they do this work.
(Most people don't have their transmission serviced regularly anyway. Check your owners manual for the maintenance cycle for your transmission.)

If Netflix is so great, why don't they have classic movies like 'Casablanca?'
https://signup.netflix.com/Search?v1=casablanca
They do.
There is a difference between their streaming content and their DVD/BluRay content because not all of the companies they get their movies from will allow streaming of their product. Netflix pays for the licensing rights to movies and network shows, and they have to abide by the terms of those licensing rights.
My 1991 Dodge Dakota shakes when I go in reverse. Why
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say "because your transmission needs work".
It is possible your torque converter is going bad.
Your reverse gear could also be going bad.
Either of these requires a visit to a transmission shop, or someone experienced in transmission repairs.
It's also possible you have a bad engine/transmission mount going bad which only causes vibration when the car is...
How long do you think you could survive if the grocery stores shelves were bare?

Can anyone recommend a good website to order parts for a 1977 Datsun 280z?
Sure.
AutoZone and Advance both have websites you can order parts from...and either ship them to you or pick up locally.
Go to one of those sites (or any other similar parts store site) and enter the make/model/year/engine for your car. Yours will be "Nissan/Datsun".

If Jesus told handed you a chainsaw and a flyer for a gay pride parade, and then winked before disappearing, what would you do?

Should prospective US citizens be required to renounce Islam?
I should think that this would somewhat go against the grain of the First Amendment, wouldn't you?
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Is the world really going to end on December 21, 2012 and will there be a December 22, 2012 ?
No and yes respectively.
However, if you absolutely insist on believing otherwise, then I would like to take the time to point out that you will have absolutely no need for any worldly goods. Therefore, you may feel free to consign them all over to me, including all your money, on December 20th, 2012.

how much will the bracelet cost?
Hmmm...
There's no obvious conventional correlation between the pieces of jewelry, such as size, weight, artwork, age, content of precious metals, and so forth.
Which indicates that the reasoning has to do with the words and the value, and not the actual jewelry itself.
I first looked at the number of letters in each...but the value of the letters isn't consistent from one to the other.

What happens to your points when your question, which for example has 10 "likes", has been deleted?
You never lose your points, WABOO.
It doesn't matter if all your material were rejected or combined as duplicates of other questions. It also doesn't matter if everybody were to go back and "Unlike" everything of yours that they ever "Liked" before.
Your total points would not decrease.
In the case of people "Unliking" your material, it would affect only the displayed number of "Likes" on...
What do you think of the 'drip' diet? One is rigged up to a drip providing all nutrition.Many brides to be do it to lose weight quickly.
I just looked this up.
Keep in mind during my answer that I'm talking about people in general, not you personally.
According to the article I read, some doctors claim that this diet, which feeds the person 800 calories a day, will result in a weight loss of 20 pounds in 10 days.

Do you think America's standard education system is flawed?
No.
I think too many people complain about it and are content with shirking their own responsibilities with respect to their own education and the education of their children.
If people would put half the effort into making the system work that they do about b*tching about all the strawman arguments on why it doesn't work, then we'd be far better off.
Would you like someone's pen name here be imbibed in yours? like WAshunBOOyata?

For Dallas fans,the Ewing's are back next month. Will you watch the newer version?
Nope. I never got into it the first time around.
Nothing but a night time soap opera, in my opinion.
Somebody should just shoot JR now and get it over with, already.
Which is more powerful: a Zuni rocket or Hellfire missile?
This depends on the warhead fitted to the missile, of which there are several types.
I haven't done any in-depth research, but I would say that the Hellfire missile is the more advance and capable missile and, based on it's size, is likely to be able to carry a larger, more potent, warhead than the Zuni.
Try google and see what you can find.
Mark: how much, Mark ?
Assume "X" equals the first year's dues. Then:
X + (X + 2) + (X + 2 + 3) + (X + 2 + 3 + 4) = 96
Reduce to the following:
X + (X + 2) + (X + 5) + (X + 9) = 96
And then to:
4X + 16 = 96
Then solve for X:
4X = 96 - 16
4X = 80
X = 20
The initial membership fee for the first year is $20.

Cheap alternative to insulating a room?
That's a difficult one.
The problem here is the summer time. In winter time, you can easily get by with lots of blankets and such. However, an uninsulated structure like a garage becomes an oven in the summer, and cooling that without a decent, real, insulation job is neigh impossible and attempting to do so will be extremely expensive using air conditioning of some kind.
Any way you look...
It seems there are Blue- and also White- Dress-uniforms for officers in the NAVY. When is either worn ?
Which uniform is worn is a function of the occasion and the season.
In general, dress blue uniforms are a winter uniform, while dress white uniforms are a summer uniform. When the shift takes place between the two is determined by the regional Naval Commander.
Take a look at this instruction, specifically Enclosure (2):

Will you watch the movie of Lindsay Lohan pretending to be Elizabeth Taylor?
Well, first of all, this doesn't sound like the kind of movie I'd watch regardless of who was in it.
Second, I should think that Lindsay Lohan lacks even the most basic physical requirements to portray Elizabeth Taylor.

Women wanted equality, but have promoted or taken
part in mistreatment and INequality for others. So why take their rights
seriously?
For that matter, Nate, why take anybody's rights seriously?
One cannot find a single group of peoples in the entire history of the human race that has not promoted or taken part in the mistreatment and inquality of others.
Not one.
The whole basis of equality is to legally recognize that everyone is entitled to the same basic human rights.
That any particular person or group of...

I have a Marllin Golden 39A, Ser# AA25620 22 rifle, can you tell me when it was manufactured and the approx. value?
It was manufactured in 1965.
How much it's worth is a function of the physical condition of the rifle, how rare it may be, and how much demand there is for it.
Here's the site I used to find the year of manufacture:

Why do some people make such a big deal about what others name their children?
Heh!
It's not about it not being their choice...it's about the fact that some people just name their kids something stupid, silly, or otherwise ridiculous.
Take "Moon Unit", "Dweezil", "Ahmet Emuuka Rhodan", and "Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen", the names of Frank and Gail Zappa's children.
And, to be fair, some people just don't understand the cultural backgrounds of certain peoples.

I know people lie and some are better than others. Is there a clue when you just absolutely KNOW someone is lying to you?
Certainly.
Know the answers BEFORE you ask the questions.
In addition to body language, how they answer the questions you already know the answers to will give you a clue as to whether or not they're being truthful to the questions you may not know the answers to.

Do you have a question?
Do you keep a spare pair of shoes in your car?
If I feel I may need them, but otherwise, no.
I keep a spare set of clothes at work, though, because I am now riding my bicycle back and forth almost exclusively. Having dry clothes to change into when it rains is nice. Also, as the weather gets hotter, I'll have a clean set I can change into after a short shower.

Well, let's see:
In Gen 4:19, nowhere is there any hint that Lamech did anything wrong when he took two wives:
"And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah."
In 2 Sam 12:8, God not only gives David all his former master's wives, but said He would have given him even more if that were not enough:

If a baseball and bat cost $110, and the bat costs $100 more than the ball, how much does the ball cost?* http://www.sync-blog.com/sync/2012/04/simple-math-problem-could-indicate-your-religious-beliefs.html
$5.
using "b" to represent "baseball" and "B" to represent "bat":
b + B = $110
The bat costs $100 more than the ball. Therefore:
B = b + $100
By substitution:
b + B = $110
b + (b + $100) = $110
b + b + 100 = 110
2b + 100 = 110
2b = 110 - 100
2b = 10

Do you think that texting,emailing,IMing,etc(w someone who is not your S/O of the opposite sex) is consdiered "cheating"....
It might very well be, if the person is sharing intimacies or trusts that are supposed to be shared exclusively with their significant other or spouse.
Regardless, and contrary to the beliefs of some, if the APPEARANCE of cheating is evident, then this undermines the trust in the relationship whether or not any actual cheating is occuring. Therefore such a thing has no business occurring.
Is it more evident in this election that the US needs a 3rd party?
Why?
We already have about 50 or so political parties already. Seems to me that if people really want a third major party to contend with the Democrats and Republicans, they need to get behind one of the others already and make it happen.
Perhaps the Pansexual Peace Party or the U.S. Marijuana Party.

How to get my wife to have sex with other women?
I'm thinking that if you're asking something like this, then you're barking up the wrong tree anyway.
The implication here is either you haven't talked to your wife about this in the first place (probably because you know this won't be well received) or you have and she's let you know it wasn't very well received.
You don't "get" other people to do things against their will.
Which is...

B is for Basil devoured by bears.

Why are many men unaware of when a woman has an orgasm or even whether we have them?

If you own the rights to the property being shared, then yes.

You have purchased the right to play or use that music, movie, or file as you see fit, within the scope of the laws covering copywrited material.

Why do Christians dislike Catholic people?
First of all, since some of those Christians are, in fact, Catholics (because all Catholics are Christians), not all Christians dislike Catholics.

1. Understanding of the difference between Protestants and Catholics.
2. Recognition that Protestants and Catholics...

I'm not saying ebay is an unsafe place to buy things, but it seems to me that the better route when it comes to spending that kind of money on a laptop would be to go to the source or to a reputable dealer of new laptops.

If Christ came face to face with Hitler, would he merely have turned the other cheek as millions died?
Perhaps.
With the perspective of God, we are all going to die. Further, we're all going to die either of natural causes or at each other's hands.
And in the end, the perspective includes paying for our actions while alive.
So it's not as if Hitler would somehow "get away with it" or that those who died will evade anything for the ways they lived their lives either.

How can I reduce the tightness of my muscles if my brain is telling my muscles to remain tight?Can u train ur brain by stretching ur muscles
Depends on why your muscles are tight.
If they're not tight due to a neurological reason, then simple stretching exercises are likely all you need.
However, if you have a neurological condition which is causing the muscles to be tight, then you need to have that examined first.
Stretching exercises may be part of a therapy for such a condition, but other things may need to be done as well.

Still, some here know my real name, so I don't publish such details.
Suffice it to say I earned into 6 figures and, at a glance, paid less than Romney.
How much one pays in taxes is a function of many variables. But let's take one:
Capital Gains Taxes
If the majority of your income is...
If you are a Disney character, who would you be?
I'd like to be Jiminy Cricket.
:):)
Have you ever hunted and killed a bear?
Nope.
Not yet, anyway.
Though I'm more inclined to go on a wild boar hunt, instead.
With a pistol.
Do AB answerers have jobs?
This one does.
:):)
I wear sunglasses inside. Are you jealous of my coolness?
Nope.
Corey Hart has you beat, hands down.
:):)
Have you ever found a 5,6,or 7 leaf clover?
I found a 5 leaf clover, once.
:):)
should i switch to yahoo answers? cuz no one on answerbag answers $h!t anymore.
Well, let's see:
To date, you have posted 46 questions, of which 36 show answers to.
Which indicates to me that the majority of your questions have some answers to them.
Now, if you don't like this then you are certainly free to "switch to yahoo answers" all you wish.
Does your mum love you? I bet she doesn't.
You're right. My Mom doesn't love me.
But that's because she's been dead for almost 18 years, now.
My Mother-in-Law, however, is still alive and she loves me very much.
:):)
Apart from potatoes, leprechauns, the colour green and beer, what else is Irish?
Some hot, fiery, red-headed chicks!
And some hot, fiery, non-red-headed chicks!
They're ALL hot with that Irish accent!

The Mother of my child got pregnant in Colorado and moved to Illinois before the baby was born. She is due in May. what can I do?

How do I wire my ceiling fan to a switch in this scenario? Hope the picture helps.
Your fan should have come with a wiring diagram which shows this. But here is a site which shows you how to wire up the fan:
http://www.protoolreviews.com/how-to/electrical/wiring-and-connecting-a-ceiling-fan
Note that if your fan has no light, then you simply connect everything the same was as scenario 3 or 5 in this link, only there won't be any light wires in the fan to connect.

Do you like restaurants that are generous with their cheese? Why or why not?
Yep!
I like cheese!
:):)
Are you better off now then you were four years ago?
Yep.
I've almost got our total debts down to four figures.
is there a point to having a raid array for home media?
Not in my opinion, if that's all it's for.
You'd do better in buying 1TB portable external drives to transfer/back up your media to. It's simple, it's cheaper, and they're so small you can easily stash them in a drawer for storage.
What's the closest you've ever been to being flat broke, no savings, no safety net, no backup? How did it happen?
Back when I was going through a separation/divorce.
I had so many bills to pay and so little money that I was literally living off of 20 to 30 dollars a month for food and welcomed every penny I found on the ground.
What is your favourite line from a film/movie?
Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

I read recently that only 20% of Americans have a passport,why ?
Because for most American's, it's not a necessary item.
Consider the size of America, then look at the number of states. No passport is required between the states, where the vast majority of U.S. citizens travel to and from.
Much like the newer requirements in the EU. Shengen rules are recognized between 22 European Union countries. Passports are only required when traveling to and from...
Tea, or coffee?
Tea, iced.
For those of the Southern persuasion, I'd like to take the time to clarify that:
Tea is unsweetened. It does not grow naturally sweet. You have to add sugar, or some other sweetener, to it if you want it to be sweet. When you do this, it becomes "sweet tea".
Therefore:
Tea = unsweetened beverage.
Sweet tea = sweetened beverage.
That's the way it is. Get over it.
:):)
I had a Nerve block on my right lower side if I had a kidney stones would I feel it?
Possibly. It depends on where along the side because that determines what branches of nerves are numbed.
Do you like the name snail or escargot?
Either way...so long as it comes in butter.
:):)
What do the prolonged stares mean?
Why, oh why, do I get this feeling you're pulling our legs?
Are you a master or a commander?
Neither.
I'm The Chief.
Any Sailor will tell you what that means...and it's far and above these two in real life.

Where do you turn when you get stuck on a coding problem while developing a website?
I'm not a programmer. However, when I'm troubleshooting Instrumentation and Control equipment, sometimes I run into road blocks and end up banging my head some.
I've found that the best way to resolve this is to step back to the basics and review the problem from the beginning again. Application of the basics, plus a little common sense, goes a long way.
I also have a pool of other...
Do you have a secret weapon?
Yes...and I bring it out whenever I make chili.

What would you do if I shrunk down to only four inches in height?

What would you do if somebody called you stupidface?
Laugh and leave.
Do you think poor people with low incomes should get a bigger tax refund ?
A bigger refund than what?
Below a certain income level, depending on their deductions and credits, they get it all back anyway.
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/key-elements/poor/households.cfm
One cannot be "refunded" more than one has paid.

Nope. Sorry to burst your bubble, but both those titles are still uncontested and firmly in the hands of Jimmie Carter.

Point of fact:
We are all related to each other.

Explain the effects of radiation on the DNA sequence.
There are two mechanisms by which radiation can affect DNA:
1. Direct effects
2. Indirect effects
Direct effect:
Radiation can interact directly with the atoms which comprise the DNA molecule itself. Direct effects cause ionization of some of the atoms which make up the DNA molecule, which would break up the chemical bonds within the DNA strand.
Indirect effect:

Could a Hacker take on the abilities of a CL and do real damage to the site/members without leaving tracks? Can hackers be invisible?
I suppose it's possible.
However, if a hacker were to do so, then they'd not be very smart about going about damaging the site by usurping the role of a CL. CL's do not have "unlimited power". There are a lot of things we cannot do.
:):)
And once found, they would leave tracks which could be followed to undo a lot of the damage.
Why are some people NOT racist?
An interesting question Nate.
Unlike the quote from Dennis Leary posted in another answer, however, I do not believe racism is entirely taught.
"Racism isn't born, folks, it's taught. I have a two-year-old son. You know what he hates? Naps! End of list. ~Dennis Leary"
The problem with saying this is that it completely ignores natural human behavior which leads up to what we call...

Jeweler's charge to replace a watch battery?
I bought a new watch, instructions say, "to replace battery take it to a jeweler".
In my experience, most do not.
However, I don't know what kind of watch you're talking about. If you're talking about an expensive watch, like a Rolex, then all bets are off.
Give a few local jewelers a call and ask. They'll be happy to tell you.
If they do charge, I imagine it would be a token amount.

What is the politically correct way to describe a homemaker who has never worked a day in his or her life?
I would not call my wife, a "stay-at-home Mom", someone who has never worked a day in her life, even if she had never been otherwise employed.
Even so, she would be paid quite well, as the vast majority of my paycheck goes straight to her in the first place.
And she doesn't have to pay taxes on it, either.

Why in 2012, am I, and most other people, treated with far less respect by others, than my grandparents who became adults in the year 1935 ?

Your profile strongly suggests this.

Do you think AB should change the point system back to "the way it was in the beginning? New members are overwelmed by top point people.
No.
If you think new members might be overwhelmed now, think how much more overwhelmed they might be with scores of members well over the 200,000 mark? And some I'm sure would be over 500,000 by now.
Back then I had a significant fraction of my points from moderating...I would pick a category and go through it and flag stuff that obviously was not in the right category. At 5 points for each...

How can a person tell if a person has an STD?

How to deal with the fact that my wife's body will never be the same after pregnancy?
How 'bout you just concentrate on loving her for the woman she is and quite worrying about such trivial matters?
There is more to life than just physical appearances, and I submit to you that if physical appearances comprise the bulk of your attachment to your wife then your marriage was in trouble from the start.

John Lennon's "Happy Christmas" (War is Over) grates on my nerves to no end. However, it isn't because of the song itself, ironically. It's because of what I remember of how it was used for the longest time on some TV commercials.

More AB members leave because of AB bullies. Soon just the bullies will be left. Let 'em bully one another! Perfect,right?
Members have always come and gone for a variety of reasons, Rosie, and I'm quite sure some are for trolls and bullies.
However, in the time I've been here I can honestly say that the trolling activities on this site are a lot lower than they used to be before the changeover to the current format. AB took away a lot of the weapons trolls used to use on this site when they did.

Should a tranny be allowed to use the women's restroom??
"Tranny" as in "transvestite" or as in "transsexual"? There is a difference.
If he's got a penis (pre-op), then he needs to use the men's restroom.
If he no longer has a penis (post-op), then he needs to use the women's room.

If I put my laptop on my bed, will it overheat?
Very likely, yes.
Your bed will not provide the hard surface the laptop needs in order to maintain an adequate air gap around the vents on the bottom of the laptop. Therefore it will not be able to properly circulate air through the laptop like it's designed to and the laptop components (especially the CPU) will heat up.
If it gets too hot, it should automatically shut down.

Smoking at 12
Let me tell you a little secret about smoking:
If you're smoking, then other people know about it. Most especially if they are not smokers.
You can't avoid it: It's on your breath, it's in your hair, it's in your clothing. The odor is there...you just can't smell it because you've been smoking.

Really?
So if you open up a company of your own and expand because you're successful and end up with companies over seas, you think you should be required to move out of your home country?
Does this mean if you open up a branch in another state, you should be required to move from your current state to that one?
Seems silly and vindictive to me.
No, I don't agree.

First of all, understand that there is a bug that still puts in an appearance once in a while. It's usually referred to as the "disappearing comments bug".
If the problem is this bug, then the comments are still there...they just aren't showing. You can force them to show up by simply posting another comment of your own, after which you can edit your comment to conform to what you see.

“There aren't offensive words, only offendable people.” - George Carlin.
Your opinion on this quote?
It's funny in a comedy routine.
But in real life, it's not realistic.
Offensive words exist because their purpose is to offend. Saying that they don't exist in this fashion is like saying "there are no sharp knives, just people with soft skin".
That a person may choose not to be offended by such words doesn't make them non-offensive.

Getting your girlfriend to experiment sexually (anal, positions etc)
Well, first of all you haven't "been trying for ages". You've been together for 7 months.

Why do people let their youngest child get away with more when they're stricter with their older child?
There are a lot of reasons, many of them perfectly legitimate.
- An older child is at a later stage of development and therefore the behavioral expectations for that child should reflect this.
- Not every child is the same, therefore not every child is handled "equally". It is an unrealistic expectation to believe otherwise.
- Being "strict" isn't necessarily what is required. Being...

My dog has had diarrhea for 3 days now and I have been feeding him rice and tonight I found that he threw it all up. What should I do?
Well, for one quit feeding him rice. Dogs are consummate carnivores.
For another, take him to the vet. Diarrhea and vomiting for this period of time can be life threatening due to dehydration. This is a serious thing for dogs, because they don't have much body mass and can't afford to go extended periods of time with illnesses which cause dehydration.
This is serious...as in honestly life...

Do you go to "all you can eat" restaurants?
Oh, yeah!
Have you ever carried around a screwdriver in a place others might consider odd if they knew? If so, why?
Well, as an engineer where I work, I'm not supposed to be using tools. The mechanics are the people who are supposed to be doing that.

when computers and processors have become ever more powerful why are companies stopping making them and making tablets and phones instead.
I don't see where they've stopped making these things.
Why would anyone be against capital punishment?
Presumably because they value the sanctity of human life, even if the person in question has otherwise performed heinous acts against others.
Shouldn't the Initiator of life, be eternal, since He is the Source of all life. Since man cannot duplicate life, shouldn't we obey?
I dunno. I have a hard time picturing myself and my wife as being immortal.
And we've proven ourselves quite adept at duplicating life.
Did you know that each day you eat meat takes half an hour off your life?
Heh!
I'd like to see the link/study for THAT assertation!
So, let's apply that to my great Aunt Lou, who lived to be 104 years of age. She ate meat.
Let's assume that she ate meat every day of her life, for simplicity. That means she lost 18980 hours off her life (not counting leap years in this, for simplicity).
That means she could have lived another 2 years if she didn't eat meat?
Uh...
Why do some people on AB call others "gay" thinking it's an insult?
Because it IS an insult when used that way, Kenz.
Gay, as a reference to homosexuality, probably started somewhere in the 19th century. Perhaps even earlier. And the prevailing view on homosexuality was very much negative back then, and all the way through the 20th century as well.
These days, "gay" is rarely, if ever, used socially for it's original meaning of "happy" or "care free".

Would you be able to actually stab an attacker with whatever, in self-defense?

How promiscuous have you been,
The best layman's definition of promiscuous that I've found is in Wikipedia:
"Promiscuity, in human sexual behavior, refers to the practice of casual sex with multiple sexual partners."
Given that, I would say that very few people would consider my sexual history as anything close to promiscuous. I've only been with three women in my life: my first wife, another lady after my divorce from...

If the highest paid jobs are given on a who you know not what you know basis then doesn't that just negate the free market economy theory?

I am married,but colleague put his hand around my waist when tried to give him the way.he never does this to any other one.does it mean sth?
You're wording is kind of confusing. What do you mean by "when tried to give him the way"?
The bottom line is that if he's doing this and you are uncomfortabe with it, he needs to stop.
Also, appearances are important (whether some people believe this or not). This means that his behavior may come across as inappropriate, even if there is no untoward intent involved. You should also...
If you could do your divorce over again, would you have just stayed married? Why or why not?
If I could have done it all over again, I would never have married her in the first place and thus avoided a whole mess of problems.
In fact, except for the kids, if I could have done it all over again I would never have banged her either.

Yes, it's perfectly acceptable for your girlfriend to spend the night with her ex knowing that he still has the hots for her and for you not to be OK with that.
Which begs the question:
With all these warning signs that you are not OK with, why were you still banging her and risking knocking her up in the first place? Ane why are you still with her?

Can I sue the woman for alienation of affection my husband had an email affair with?

Well, dogs are carnivores. A carnivorous diet is a natural diet for them.

If she's already eating a healthy diet, then you don't need to do anything special.

Is it normal to call a girl "dude", or is that just another AB thing?
It's a cultural or regional thing, Kenz. Just like "bloke" or "mate" might be for you.
The entymology of the word has evolved over time to be generally unisexual in nature.
I wouldn't get to concerned over the specifics...like so many words, there are multiple definitions and meanings which are defined by the context in which they are used. Just accept it's cultural meaning in the context...

Why do musicians (drummers, for instance) have their headphones on while performing?
For a couple reasons I can think of.
One is to prevent hearing loss, so they don't end up talking like Ozzy Ozbourne when they get older.

Do "Stand your ground" laws allow you to pursue a burglar blocks from your home and kill them? Should they?
Not in my eyes, Wynper.
"Stand your ground" is a phrase which is not the same as "Castle Doctrine". Essentially, "stand your ground" simply means that a person does not have to "retreat" and call the police if he's threatened. He can defend himself using whatever force is required if he chooses.
"Whatever force is required", however, doesn't necessarily mean "deadly force", nor does it mean...

U.S. military officials attempted to scrub the web of info reg. Bales the soldier accused of killing civilians. What do you think of this?
I can think of a lot of reasons, starting with protecting Bales and his family and friends from reprisals in the interim while awaiting his trial.
Regardless of how we, or anybody else, may feel about him and what he's accused of doing, our laws demand that he be placed on trial for those actions. This does not mean he's to be subjected to some kind of "lynching" action, nor does it mean that...

It would be interesting to know what these "62 planetary bodies" are, because there aren't that many celestial bodies in or star system which would qualify as being big enough to have an active geology, much less plate techtonics.

When you travel on a train, why do fields nearer the railway line move faster than the ones further away?
It's called "perspective".
Up close, you have a narrower field of view. Farther away you have a wide field of view. So an object that travels a set distance per unit of time appears to be traveling faster when closer because it crosses a larger percentage of the narrower field of view. But when viewed farther away, it crosses a much smaller percentage of the wider field of view, so it...

Why is exhaust steam from turbine is condensed and not redirected to boiler to save energy?
Several reasons.
One is to complete the cycle of water in the system. The water in the steam generator is boiled to produce steam under high pressure. This steam is used to turn a turbine. Once the energy has been extracted from the high pressure steam, it cools down quite a bit. Then it's condensed back into water so that it can then be pumped right back into the steam generator. Steam...

This should be on a sticker somewhere under the hood of your car.
Visit an auto parts store online, like AutoZone or AdvanceAuto.
Enter your year, make, model, and engine size. Then search for "sparkplugs". On the page that comes up, there will be a link for specifications for the sparkplugs for your vehicle. This is how I got this information.

Other than alienate, what does negative reinforcement achieve?
Behavioral modification, Rosie.
Are you saying the negative reinforcement is an unjust, unfair, or otherwise abusive?
If so, then I submit to you that there is a misconception here about what "negative reinforcement" is.
"Negative reinforcement" is often confused with "punishment", likely because of the word "negative". They are two different things.
Negative reinforcement strengthens a...
does coca cola is healthy if I drink it while I do my exercise at gim? As a source of energy for my body becouse it consist a caffeine
Coca Cola is not a "health drink" by any stretch of the imagination.
For exercise routines, you need a proper balanced diet. Carbohydrates in your diet will give you all the energy you need. If your body requires more energy than what is available in your food, it will start obtaining that energy from the fat stored in your body.
This is how people lose weight: they burn more calories then...
What was that hand gesture you just made at me?
Here are a few just for you...in tribute to Bruce Lee:
Do you think Obama has ever changed the oil in a car? Can a man who doesn't know the basics make good decisions?
Have you ASKED Jesus Christ for his forgiveness and to be your eternal salvation...
Likely long before you did.
However, I suppose you'll claim it's all for naught when you find out I attend Catholic Mass as a Protestant.
Pump prices up for the 27th consecutive day as we cruise through the 38th month of Obama energy policy. Surprised?
Oooohhhh....
Up for the 27th consecutive day in the 38th month of Obama's term of office. How shattering!
I see that you are still posting more of the same without any regard to previous postings on this subject matter, such as these:

i want to apologise t my friend for distancing myself from her when our group split i didnt take sides just kept quite, how do i go about it
How 'bout you simply talk to your friend and explain it.
This is what friends do.
It doesn't mean they won't be upset with you, but then being able to air their feelings with you is also part of what friendship is all about.
If you burn an iPad with a Quran app, do Muslims get angry?
I should imagine that if the point of the burning of the iPad was because of the Qur'an app, then the answer is very likely to be "yes".
In otherwords, if you're doing something to deliberately p*ss off a group of people by advertising what you're doing, then yes, it's a reasonable assumption that you're going to p*ss off that group of people.
How can I get ideas for story characters?
Well, carry a small notebook with you at all times.
When something pops up that makes you think "That's a cool idea!", write it down.
Do plenty of reading yourself, to stir your imagination.
And get out into the real world and experience the people and places around you.
Good Luck!

Do you know anyone who claims to have been a Navy Seal, or to have trained with them?
Yep!
One of the submarines I served aboard was a "SpecOps" boat...Special Operations.
We were capable of carrying a Dry Deck Shelter topside, which housed a battery powered submersible.
Here's a website showing some pictures of that particular submarine, some of which have teh cylindrical DDS shown:

Do you bring a calculator with you when you go to restaurants?
Nope. Addition and percentages are simple to perform, especially if you round things to easier numbers to handle.
What "items" do you feel it's okay to buy on credit?
Since paying off my credit cards, I buy nearly everything on credit.
This is because I budget myself such that I pay my credit card off every payday. I owe no interest this way, and I reap the benefits of rewards points, which give me cash back.
What happens if someone receives the wrong blood type?
A good question:
Blood type must be determined before blood is transfused into a patient to prevent a transfusion reaction.
When someone has type A blood (with type A antigens), their plasma has type B antibodies and vice versa. Therefore, a reaction occurs when the antigens on the red blood cells of the donor blood react with the antibodies in the recipient's plasma.
For example, if a...

I have a 32bit operating system LG Laptop Dual core, 2.0Ghz
You cannot install a 64 bit OS on a platform which is not capable of operating it. So, no, you cannot install it on your 32 bit system.
This makes the question about whether or not the 64 bit OS can fully utilize your 4GB of RAM: It can't be installed, therefore it's a moot point.
Install a 32 bit version of the OS you wish to run. It should be capable of fully utilizing 4GB of RAM, if...
how credible is the Mayan Calendar?
More accurate than the current conspiracy interpretation of the Mayan calendar.
In fact, Mayan's themselves don't get all this BS people are brewing up over their calndar.
This isn't a prediction of the end of the world. It's simply the end of the calendar cycle, which starts over again anew afterwards.
The Mayan calendar system involves several different schemes by which various periods of...
My girlfriends cat wizzed on my couch! the tag says "85% urethane foam,12% Resin treated polyester fiber batting". What do I use to clean this?
Use warm water and a laundry detergent. Soak the material in it and thoroughly rince it out.
Then soak the material in water with baking soda in it. This will help neutralize any odor.
You can also add some Fabreeze to the water as well.
Then thoroughly rinse the soda water out and dry.
Is it possible to clone yourself from your own dandruff?
Well, considering dandruff is just dead skin cells, I'd have to say "yes".
So long as they can extract undamaged DNA from it.

We have an exchange student from Mexico and this stupid boy keeps trying to hit on her and keeps annoying her.
Is she incapable of telling him she's not interested?
Why are people so prejudice towards Arabic people? Why is there so much racial profiling/inferior treatment?
People are inherently distrustful/prejudiced against that which is "different", whatever that may be.
You can see this demonstrated all around you in nature in the behavior of animals, too, though the human concept of "trust" doesn't strictly apply with animals.
Like animals, we are constantly observing and making instinctive decisions/judgements based on how we perceive those around us. Is...
Americans ABers - are you getting a tax refund, do you have to pay, or haven't filed yet this year?
I haven't filed yet, this year. But likely I will have to pay.
This is because of the how I have my tax exemptions set up. I receive paychecks from two sources. One is my place of employment, the other is my retirement from the Navy.
My retirement check I have set up so that federal taxes aren't taken out of it. This means that I have to make up that difference with the taxes withheld...

Believers in a particular God: Could you write down why you DON'T believe in all other Gods?
You might find why I don't believe in yours.
No, thank you.
You may choose to believe or disbelieve as you see fit. I do not care to know why you do or do not believe the same things I do with respect to religion.
i am having problems with my bffs friend.any advice?
First of all, such people aren't worthy of your time and worry.
Second of all, if your "BFF" is really a "BFF", then this kind of cr*p won't matter in the long run.
Eventually this will pass...either everybody involved will grow up and move past this kind of stuff, or you'll move on and let this person lead a sad, shallow life without your involvement.
Why would Obama be re-elected? His record is worse than other one-term presidents.
Really?
Personally I don't see where he's anywhere near as bad as President Carter.
What was the purpose of the Watergate Burglary? It was such a historical event, but why did it happen?
It was a political scandal wherein some of those supporting the Nixon administration sought to plant wiretaps and break into the Democratic National Committee Headquarters at the Watergate Hotel complex in order to illegally obtain information which could then be used to help re-elect President Nixon.
Many high level people were involved, all the way up to President Nixon himself, who resigned...
Do Mormons receive the body and blood of Christ?
Hmmmm...Depends on how you look at it.
By and large, non-Catholic and non-Eastern Orthodox churches do not believe in "transubstantiation", so from that point of view, no they do not receive the body and blood of Christ.
If the Chevy Volt is such a great car, then why is that even with a $7,500 subsidy, the demand can't keep up with the production.
Well, comparitively speaking, this car doesn't meet the demands of most of the driving population. And at a starting price of nearly $32,000 up to $42,000 I rather imagine that there aren't too many people out there who are willing to fork out that kind of money for a car that will only travel 35 miles on the battery before the gasoline engine kicks in.
Then, after the gas engine kicks in,...
How do you really feel about large, obviously fake boob jobs?
I'm not much for them, for a couple reasons:
1. Those who get them done as an elective, cosmetic surgery are more likely to be vain individuals, and I could do without that thank you very much.
2. Minor enhancement isn't too bad. I've seen some that were pretty difficult to tell by looking. But if it is "obviously fake", then it detracts from the natural beauty and I'm just not that much...

Do you really think Obama knows the Iranian nuclear program? If Bush couldn't fine WMD's in Iraq, how can Obama find nukes in Iran?
If you're presuming "Weapons of Mass Destruction" is a term only applicable to nuclear weapons, then you are mistaken.
And yes, there were WMD in Iraq, and in fact some were even used. Ask the Kurds about that.
As for Obama knowing "the Iranian nuclear program", I should think he has access to quite a bit of information about it which can be used to determine whether or not Iran is likely to...
Why are so many of the Democrats on AB such Republican haters? They curse, post repulsive pictures...
It somes and goes, Marisa. If you are around for any length of time, you'll see some pretty bloody "debates" going on from both sides.
Approached from the right viewpoint, they can be pretty entertaining to read. But if they bother you, just ignore them and focus your energies on other material on this site.

where is the fuel pump located on a 2000 plymouth grand voyager?
The engines available for this vehicle were all fuel injected, with an electric pump which is located in the fuel tank.
To access the fuel pump for replacement requires the fuel tank to be removed (dropped down) from your vehicle. The pump is mounted inside the tank via an opening on top of the tank.
It's not difficult to do, but you do need to lift the rear of the vehicle up and support the...

Why does my EX BF keep calling me
Honestly, who cares what his reasons are? You may never understand them fully, so don't worry about the "why" and start figuring out what you're going to do about it.
Block his number. Or, if that won't work because he's calling in provate mode, change yours and be careful about whom you give that number to.
Contact your phone provider and talk to them about how to go about blocking...
