What story has a woman sleeping with her husband's corpse?
I am trying to think of a story where there's a woman who has been behind for years on taxes because the city just leaves her alone. Something changes, or she dies, I can't remember, and when people go to look in her house they find a withered old body on the bed upstairs. It turns out to be her husband or something and she slept with it every night, as evidenced by a hair they found on the pillow or something. Can anybody please tell me the author & title? Thanks, it's killing me!
2 AnswersBooks & Authors1 decade agoWhat is the song at the end of "Pay It Forward"?
There's an instrumental song that plays during the movie and again during the credits in the movie "Pay It Forward". Not the "calling all angels" one that plays at the end, the one during the credits. It sounds so familiar, like I've heard it during some TV show but I can't figure it out. It's driving me crazy since I saw the movie last week!
2 AnswersMovies1 decade agoHas anybody ever had a vanishing twin?
I had some problems at the beginning of my pregnancy (I'm 17 weeks and fine now) so they did early ultrasounds to determine how far along I was and what might be wrong. The doctor said I was 5-6 weeks and that it looked like I may have conceived twins but was only carrying one, that the other may have miscarried VERY early and that was what caused my problems. He called it a vanishing twin, based on my uterus being somewhat misshapen (kind of lopsided) with what looked like a line across the middle of it. The baby's heartbeat was already strong and the next week things looked normal again and I haven't had any problems since.
Has anybody else had this happen?

1 AnswerTelevision1 decade agoWho isn't fed up with credit card baloney?
I'm getting charged a $39 late fee (which I am refusing to pay or they'll lose my business) because the payment that I made EARLY posted less than 24 hours before the end of the previous "statement" period, so it applied to the balance but not to the "minimum balance due" for the next month. So I'm being penalized for their technicalities. This is about the 5th or 6th time I've had problems because of how long it took them to post my electronic payments!!! One time I requested it 3 days before my due date and it posted an hour after midnight on the due date and was "late". And don't forget the time when their system was down for a week and a half, conveniently right over my due date, so I wasn't able to log in and make the payment on time, so I called them before my due date and made sure they didn't charge me for their errors.These people have not gotten any late fees out of me yet and they're not gonna. Who else is fed up with their BS and wants to vent??!!?!

I have the "bacardi mixers" that you're supposed to just add ice and rum, but I'm making them virgin. What's the best way to balance the flavors to substitute the alcohol? The bottle says add water but that sounds kind of boring.

5 AnswersMovies2 decades agoHow many moms take their babies back to the NICU to visit?
My son was in the NICU when he was just a few days old for severe jaundice and the nurses said to bring him back to visit whenever we were in town (2 hours away). He will be 1 year old next month, and I've taken him back to visit once and plan to do it again tomorrow since I'll be in town anyway. It must be rewarding to see the babies that make it and thrive, going on to live happy, healthy and rewarding lives because of the efforts of the doctors and nurses in those first few days, weeks or months. Especially with all the heartache and sorrow that inevitably must come with the job of caring for extremely premature babies. Any moms or NICU nurses/doctors with happy/inspiring stories of reunion to share?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ag1lY...
In the above question, a person said that the lady's marriage wouldn't last because Jesus wasn't in it. Who was she to decide? Why do people think that whatever their beliefs or lack thereof are, if you're against them you're bad? We've got a world full of so many differences and the free will to choose whatever we want, be it good or bad. Why waste time picking on other's faults when I'm sure our own haven't been solved? I have seen more instances of hateful comments on these pages, especially in the pregnancy section. I have also seen many thoughtful and caring answers and advice. What ever happened to "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything"?
