My family will be in Tampa, FL the weekend before Thanksgiving and are looking for some dining recommendations. My sister and I are 20 and 23, and we will be there with my parents. We don't need any fancy restaurants, just some good food, hopefully local restaurants with local flavor. We will be staying in Ruskin but have a car. Thanks in advance!

My sister and I are looking to take a weekend away this summer, anytime between June and August. We thought we would try to find a fun festival to go to and base our trip around that (i.e. Boston's Harborfest, or the Cherry Festival in Michigan). We will be driving, and would like something within about an 8 hour drive of the Rochester/Buffalo, NY area(s). It can be based around food, music, art, film, etc...we're not really picky. It doesn't have to be in a big city, either. If anyone knows of a website that has a database of festivals, that would be even better!!

My friend was talking about a movie about when the drug crack was first introduced, and I can't remember the name! Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks for any help!

I will be traveling to Toronto, Ontario at the end of March for an overnight visit with some friends. There are 4 of us going, and we are all in the 19-22 age range, so we are of legal drinking age. We already have a hotel (the King Edward), but are looking for suggestions of what else we should do. Since we won't be getting to the city until late afternoon on Friday, our time is quite limited. If anyone has suggestions for a place for dinner, something to do for nightlife (bars, clubs), and maybe a brunch/lunch spot for the next morning, that would be appreciated! We would like to stay closer to our hotel to reduce driving/taxi costs. Thanks!

I have had Woodchuck hard cider before (the traditional flavor). The bar I'm going to tonight has Hornsby's, but not Woodchuck. Do they taste similar?

I usually drink mixed drinks and don't really like beer. However, this bar is kind of one of those "shot and a beer" places...so I want to drink something not so girly! Anyways, do you think I would like Hornsby's cider?

My parents are coming up to visit me and I wanted to make dinner instead of going out. I would like some ideas about what I should make. I am a decent cook, but don't get too much practice since I live alone. My mom doesn't like seafood too much (with the exception of mild fish, like tilapia), but other than that we aren't really picky eaters. I was thinking about braised beef short ribs with some mashed potatoes and a vegetable, but I would love some other suggestions...links to recipes would be most excellent!! Thanks in advance!

I have an undergraduate degree in Education with a concentration in Math and Special Education. I have decided not to pursue this as a career. I am considering going into accounting...what would be the best way for me to get into this as a career? Would I have to go back and get another bachelors? Could I get a masters in accounting? Thanks for any information you have on this!

Does anyone have any idea what the extra taxes and fees are like for DirecTV? I am debating about sticking with cable or switching over to Directv, and I know with my cable company I end up paying quite a bit in taxes and fees, and I was wondering if those are the same with dish. (I live in Buffalo, NY)

I have foot pain, only in my right foot. It came out of nowhere, or at least, I don't remember doing anything that could have caused it. It is concentrated in the middle of my foot, and feels like there is a vice pushing in from both sides of my foot. does anyone know what could cause this type of pain and/or what I can do to help it?

Thanks!

Does anyone know what "flavors" the Marlboro 72's come in?

I will be traveling to San Antonio in early September for my friend's graduation from the Air Force. I am looking for advice from locals on places to stay, good restaurants to try, and any "can't miss" attractions.

I have done research online, but I'm just looking for some advice from people who know the area well. Thanks! :-)
