I'm a professional, older than most here, and I feel it is time for a change in my life. I'm thinking of becoming a doctor -- do you think that is a good choice? Don't chicks dig doctors? But also, aren't doctors a bit arrogant, a bit full of themselves, and a bit unwilling to compromise?

What I want to know is: Who died and made him King?

All suggestions considered

When you won't sleep. Then -- what would you read in the light of noon? And what as night falls? Three books.

Is there a way I can check to see if I site I have visited is using an invisible statcounter (or similar product) to know when I have visited?

My computer died. I have recovered info on an external hard drive. There are e-mails from both Outlook and Outlook Express which have been recovered. But I'm having trouble finding and importing them to Outlook on my new computer. Can anyone help?

This question was prompted by the Mutts & Moms debacle, but is more general. Are rescue organizations regulated in any way by California (or L.A. county?) Do they need to be a registered non-profit?

I know there are spay and neuter rules, and microchip rules. Are there other restrictions or requirements in order to run a rescue agency that rescues animals from the county pound?

Again, I'm NOT asking for info about Moms & Mutts. Specific citations to rules, if known, would be very helpful.

The term is used both in math and English / rhetoric, and is slipping my mind.

For a h2h fantasy game in which each player takes a whole staff, please rank as many staffs as you like. (Points system: Win = 10

Shutout = 20 ER = -1 BB = -0.5 H = -0.5 K = 1)

Thanks.

For t2t point-based fantasy baseball, which of these overall staffs is the best? Phillies, Blue Jays, Giants, DIamondbacks, Braves. Reds.

(I know you don't know the point system. The main things to know: no points for saves, penalties for runs and hits given up.)

The historian Robin Winks, who died in 2003, had a side interest in mystery novels, and was said to have written mystery novels under a secret pseudonym. Anyone know what that name was? Or anything more about the story?

Who do you like best in a points league: Jeff Francouer, Chad Tracy, Shannon Stewart, or Brad Wilkerson?

I have been proposed the following trade in a Yahoo head-to-head league. Not very deep.

Felix Hernandez and Derrek Turnbow for Ryan Howard.

I don't need relief pitching, but I do need starting pitching. I don't have an adequate replacement for Howard at first (Chris Shelton is in the utility spot, and I'd move him and replace Shelton from the waiver wire. To give context, Preston Wilson is the hghest ranked player on the waiver wire. I'd have to drop two other players -- could probably afford to do so. Candidates to drop would be John Thomson, Brandon McCarthy and Joey Gathright. Gathright could fill in at util, but I'd prefer someone with a current job.)

Ok -- any thoughts?

What are your top 6 players for a 2006 fantasy bseball draft?

Why is this? Haven't even answered that many today. And I have some very specific info people are dying to hear.

The Republican majority leader has threatened to pass a bill barring a company in Dubai from running seaports in the northeast US. But the company in Dubai bought the interest from a company in Britain. Is the new outrage justifiable?

Seeking haiku about Dick Cheney's adventures.

My entry:

Bird skitters, takes wing

Man stands, turns towards his fellows

Cheney shoots them both

If you've read his work, has your opinion changed? If not, why not? What do you think a memoir is, and does it matter if a memoir is not accurate to the facts?

And why.
