How to remove the smell of coffee from your hands?
Okay, so I got a job working in my school cafeteria recently. Today, I was working a shift that was not during a meal time, so we were expecting a VERY low crowd (and indeed, we didn't have that many). As a result, I was working alone (apart from the cooks), having to serve everyone, and clean up everything. And due to an... incident (don't ask), some coffee ended up spilling all over a counter. I cleaned it up, but now my hands smell like coffee, and no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the smell to go away. I seriously just spent the past 40 minutes just washing my hands over and over again, and that didn't work. I'm out of ideas. Help!

You have a bag containing 20 marbles.
Of these 20, there are 3 that are red, 4 that are blue, 6 that are green, and 7 that are yellow.
If you draw marbles from this bag with replacement, then how many draws will it take you, on average, before you have successfully pulled at least one red, at least one blue, and at least one green?
3 AnswersMathematics7 years agoHow expensive will it be to send this?
I have a friend whom I met online who really wants a digital camera, and I have one for her. But I don't know if it's worth the cost to send or not.
Mainly because I live in the year 2013, where email has basically replaced all forms of physical mail, so I've never done this before.
The camera is 3 x 4.5 x 2.5 (in inches), and weighs less than half a pound, so I'm guessing it's not going to be too much, but the issue is that I live in Southern California. She lives on North Island, New Zealand. So that complicates things a bit.
How expensive do you think this will be? (in US Dollars)

3 AnswersOther - Computers9 years agoHow to introduce the idea of polyamory to somebody?
I recently got into a polyamorous relationship, but the problem is that most of the girls who I know are monogamous, so I can't easily forge new relationships as long as I have this first one. I am trying to convince the mono people that poly is better if you give it a chance, but I am utterly failing.
How would you go about convincing them?

So, I uploaded an 18-minute video on an account that can only do 15 minutes worth of video.
The video was rejected, fair enough.
But when I increased my time limit (by texting an activation code), the video is still showing up as "rejected."
Do I have to upload it again or something? What do I do?

4 AnswersMathematics10 years agoKingdom Hearts 358 / 2 Days Question?
Xaldin will give you an Iron on Day 95 if you complete Day 51's Mission (Mission #16)'s challenge. Its challenge is to get a 100% Mission Gauge Clear. The problem with that is that there are Fire Plants that need to be eliminated, and there are some that can only be reached with a High Jump panel. You cannot obtain the High Jump panel until Day 151, so how do you clear this on Day 95?
