Answer to:
Is selling popups and pop-unders really worth the money? Don't they drive users away?
I have found that it depends on the use of the pop-up. if it is related to your site in some way, and ON your site, such as a pop-up to advertise your sites newsletter, that you place on your site, then I have found it works incredibly well.
But no one likes random advertising pop-ups, especially ones that have nothing at all to do with the content of the site.

Answer to:
Is any kind of painkiller used before a body piercing is performed?
Generally speaking, no. But it does however depend on where you get your piercing and who does it. For things like ears, eyebrows, bellybuttons and such piercings, no one really uses any kind of painkiller. However for tongue and lip piercings and the like, certain piercing shops will rub an over-the-counter anesthetic on the area first (the kind you would use for a toothache).

What are "watersports"?

Answer to:
Will small debts, such as old late fees from a video store, or an unpaid CD from a record club appear on my credit history?
To be honest, it really depends upon the company themselves. But yes, they *can* show up on your credit record. It depends on whether or not that particular company wants to go to the trouble of reporting the unpaid debt to the credit bureau that they report to. Some will, and some won't. Personally speaking, I once had a debt to figis, a food-type gift club, and didn't pay the...

Answer to:
Is there a good, natural way to get rid of canker sores?
There really isn't a good "natural" way to get RID of canker sores. There are natural ways to help soothe them though. The first thing to remember (which shouldn't come as a surprise) is to eat foods and drink liquids with as low of an acid content as possible. Acid will only irritate the sores and make them feel worse.
Secondly, and only try this if you have a...

Answer to:
Just exactly what do colored eggs on Easter have to do with the resurrection of Jesus?
Easter eggs, and the inclusion of an egg into a springtime religious festival has been around long before the beginning of christianity. However, with any religion using eggs, the symbolism has always been the same - that is the symbol of rebirth. So in the instance of Christianity, and the resurrection of Jesus, the inclusion of eggs into the holiday is showing the symbolism of rebirth, and...

What works best in getting rid of roaches?

Answer to:
I heard that eating two teaspoons of honey every day will help fight an allergy to pollen. Is this true?
While admittedly I was immediately skeptical upon hearing this question, after doing a lot of research into the subject, I did find out some interesting facts.
First, even with people who believe that eating honey is a treatment for allergies and hay fever, it is extremely important to note that the honey they are referring to is raw, unrefined honey. In that state it still has all the...

Answer to:
Why don't Jews eat pork?
Because in the scriptures of the bible, God deemed pigs and swine to be unclean food, and not to be eaten ( Deuteronomy Chapter 14, Verse 8). But not only Pork is considered unclean...in fact, the entire of Deuteronomy Chapter 14 really lays out very specific laws on what is or is not "clean" (Kosher) food that people can eat. Shellfish and certain type of bird are also out.

Answer to:
Is it true that a man marries the most attractive woman he can afford, while a woman marries the wealthiest man she can attract?
False. I dumped my ex-husband (a complete control freak) who made $600 a week for a man who truly loves me, and is a starving artist type that lives on practically nothing. We have been married over a year, and I have never been happier.
I think that question is a vague generalization focusing on stereotypes brought up by a bad experience in the past of the person asking that question....

Answer to:
Which colognes do women like best on a man?
Well, that is actually a personal preference. However, in general, you will want something that both compliments your own personal body scent, and is not too strong or overwhelming. To find out what works for you, you may ask the opinion of a female friend.
On a side note, expensive does not always mean better! Many women I know (as well as myself) have smelled some truly awful designer...

Answer to:
Are there natural ways to help me sleep?
Actually, the best herb to help with deep relaxation and sleep is valerian extract, or valerian root. You can pick up bottles of it (available in capsule form, and sometimes in teas) at your local supermarket in the vitamin and herb section. Valerian extract/root is completely harmless, 100% natural, and actually works better than most all over the counter sleeping pills!
