Also, how can I find out more information about it?

What's the weather like where you are, and where are you?

Right now I am in central Florida, it is sunny and 71 degrees, looking for a high of 81 today. (Too warm, but not complaining, considering what other parts of the country are having!)

People send emails to me with .wmv files attached. I have a Mac and can't open or watch them. What do I need to download to be able to see these files. I tried imovie but that doesn't work. Thanks.

I put up a small artificial tree this year.

I know a lot of seniors don't bother with a Christmas tree. So, the question is...

Do you really not want a tree, or is it just too much trouble to put up and take down, and all the mess in between?

I just read an article about gas prices dropping to $1. When gas was three dollars higher, at $4 per gallon, who was getting that money? I probably wasn't the gas station owner. Was it the big oil companies (Exxon, etc.) or the actual source of the oil, perhaps foreign countries? A three dollar difference is price is HUGE! Someone was a fat cat for a while. Who was it?

We live in a retirement community, so we don't get any little ghosts and goblins here, but I miss them. Hubby and I have to eat all the candy ourselves. (darn!) lol

If McCain wins the election, all the woes of the world will be blamed on him. If Obama wins, all the woes of the world will be blamed on Bush.

So the question is, do the democrats (who have been in control of the Senate for quite some time) ever take any of the blame, or are they just blameless finger-pointers?

My husband just found out yesterday that his shoulders have rotator cuff problems, but both are inoperable due to muscle loss. Have anyone or anyone you know gotten the shoulder operation with the prosthesis? Is so, is it working? Still in pain?

I'm asking this in seniors, because this is the age group that would be experiencing this. Thanks.

We have our newest hurricane, Gustav, coming our way, but I was wondering what language is Gustav. I'm thinking it is Spanish, but I don't know for sure. If it is, what is the equivalent in English?

I'm asking this in Seniors because a) it's my favorite category and b) the seniors here are the smartest people I know.

I am soooo excited. I have just a little over 300 points until I reach level 6 on Y/A. This is such an exciting time for me!!! Could you give me some advice on how to celebrate this event?

I always enjoy the graphics they use on the Yahoo Home Page. Today, I guess for the first day of summer, they have kids on a slip and slide. Do you notice these graphics each day?

I am making a directory for my church, and I want to add well-know bible verses here and there, so I just want to know which ones are your favorites. Thanks.

Since I discovered the Senior Citizen category, I've loved it. People take the time to answer from their heart, and give thumbs up when appropriate, and even some thumbs down, needed or not. In other categories, such as Polls and Surveys, people ask and answer so fast it makes your eyes blur. Then no one gets thumbs up or down. Also, the best answer is generally done by the voters.

But it seems like just recently we have enticed the youngsters to visit our sight, and they are taking over. Does anyone else notice this? Maybe they are jealous and just want to be us!

I have volunteered to make a taco dinner at our church for Vacation Bible School volunteers. I am making a taco dinner.

How much meat do I need for 50-60 people for tacos?

What other dishes can I serve along with it, and how do I keep them hot and how much of it should I make? (I don't have any chaffing dishes!)

...on YA like you do? My husband doesn't really like computers, so he isn't interested at all, even when I tell him about some of the questions and answers. It's my little world of friends! I don't even have any friends who seem to have enough time for it. What about you?

Last Saturday I noticed that one of my ears seemed like it was clogged. I figured that I had water or wax in it. I treated it with over the counter stuff, and nothing helped. So I went to the doctor on Wednesday. He couldn't find anything wrong, so he is sending me to an audiologist tomorrow. I worried that I may be deaf in one ear, for no reason. Has this ever happened to anyone else, and does the hearing ever come back?

I have an old power mac 7200/75 with a cd drive but no cd burner. I have have now bought a new mac with os 10.4.11. How do i get my files from one to the other. I don't have a cd burner on the old one, and the new one doesn't take the old floppys. I only have a couple files, and about 30 pics. My Apple dealer that let me pay $3,000 plus for computer and software has generously offered to download them for $150!!!, but I feel that I've already paid them enough. Surely this new computer can go into the other one and get those few files. I am not trying to transfer any applications. Please help.

I am looking for four seasons, nice people, affordable living. I happened upon Irmo, SC, and it seems perfect. Is anyone out there familiar with it, and could give me the pros and cons.

My dad died last year. My brother, sister and I each inherited 1/3 of a piece of property. My sister and I really didn't want anything to do with the property, so my brother is using the whole thing. We would like for him to buy our share. He said he doesn't want to. Can we make him buy our share, or is our only recourse to begin using some of the property. It is a commercial parcel, but he has put his stuff on the whole thing. In order for us to use it, we will have to move his stuff. He has already opened a business, and we'd have to shove his stock aside, which will really make him mad. Can he use our inheritance, and not purchase it from us, and it is just too bad for us?

I have a pc, and I just purchased a Dell laptop. I want to transer all my files to my new laptop. How do I do this without burning CDs to transfer the files. Tell me exactly, since I'm not used to doing this sort of thing, and I don't understand all the lingo. Thanks.
