I see questions that say my bf ACCIDENTALLY came in me.. How the He** does he accidentally come in her? (I am not talking rape here)!!

We might have been able to explain this as Social Darwinism except for the fact that offspring are involved. ;-)

As you look back on 2008, is there any 1 thing that happened that you will remember for the rest of your life/that you hope you never forget? Yes. Never agree to list executive homes in a down real estate market -- no matter how attractively priced! They have cost me a small fortune on advertising dollars and more than 1000 man hours of my time. The bank will be getting most of them back, and the vultures will descend to pick the last builder's bones in 2009. What a shame.

I bought my home where RV's and boats were clearly allowed when I purchased my house. Now, a quorum has revised the deed restrictions to eliminate RV's but still allow boats. City and County ordinance allow RV's yet I was singled out by a few neighbors. It's all in the deed restrictions. It sounds as though you might have to seek out a place to park your RV. Perhaps, YOU were the original reason that the deed restrictions were changed in the first place. Is your RV overly large? It is decorated in an unusual manner? Is it in disrepair?

You should be asking the law firm what sort of terms they might find acceptable. A bit of advice: Begin selling assets to repay the debt or face the very real possibility of losing your property to foreclosure.

How long does it take your PC to complete a full system scan for viruses, threats, etc? Do you enjoy seeing all your files being scanned, or do you just wish that the scan would hurry up and get the job done quicker? I perform a quick Prevx CSI scan at boot time in a minute or two. Windows Defender does a different Quick Scan in perhaps 15 minutes. But the real McCoy's generally take about four hours (in the background). . Whatever the inconvenience, a minor performance lag is a small price to pay for peace of mind. . If you really hate it, run your scans after hours, while you sleep. I've...

How many times have you made it to the Leaderboard? I thought that everyone in the first 1000 was ranked on the leaderboard. In that case I have been there for at least half of my scant couple of months here. A month or so ago, I recall that I somehow made it to number 2 in one category or another ... and you can plainly see how important THAT may have been to me. ;-)

Answer to:
Have you ever disappointed someone who means so much to you and did not know what to do? Oh yeah. It is bad enough to shoot myself in the foot every once in the a while ... but to shoot someone else in the foot can have tragic consequences. Let's all hope that we keep these occurrences to an absolute minimum.

What is the worst thing you are afraid could happen to you? If you knew that the more you feared it, the more likely it was to happen, could you stop fearing it or would that make you fear it more? Well ... I suppose the "worst" thing that might happen to me is to drop dead unexpectedly. End of story. ;-) I don't fear the notion, but I seriously doubt that even if I did, my fear (or the lack thereof) would change the odds of it ever occurring.

Seeing one question here made me wonder.....Have anyone of you ever seen a "white" person? My understanding is that "white" is the background colour of AB or something strikingly like that, but I've never seen a person with that colour.... My best friend in the military used to refer to himself as not being "black" but rather he was "paper-sack tan". That cracked me up the first time he laid it on me. ;-) Albinism is about as close as you can get to "white", so I wish to dedicate this song ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1mV_5-bRPo Edgar is the albino, in case you were wondering. ...

I would also smackdown some of he newbies who thought that reaching Level 2 was difficult. Different quirks for different jerks, I always say. ;-)

Does the law mandate that children be in a car seat while in a motorhome? Where can multiple car seats be connected since only the driver's seat and the passenger seat has belts? Yes, the children's car seats must be belted in place. Personally, I would build a steel frame into which the car seats could be attached. If you have a sufficiently wide cab, I would be tempted to construct it between the driver's and passenger's seats at a height that would allow the children a view of the road ahead (once old enough to face forward).
