My brother died from alcoholism. He was 56. This is the second sibling I have lost in my life. I also lost a sister in 1978. Thing is, my brother came back from the brink of extreme alcohol poisoning (he was in the hospital for three months). His mind was gone from toxic levels of ammonia due to his excessive drinking. We were feeding him, changing him etc. He came back from that. I like to think we, as a family, "loved" him back. He was a changed man. He loved us so much for not giving up on him and expressed it freely. He was a miracle. That lasted about six months. For some reason, he thought he was invincible and decided he could drink again. He died two years ago. Since then, both of my parents health has declined so rapidly they are merely "existing" now. My mom is 80 and my father is 82. Both my sister and I (we're the siblings left with this "mess" he left), are recovering alcoholics. I have been sober for three years. While I understand alcoholism completely, I find myself so angry at him for dying so needlessly and, in turn, slowly killing our parents. I do plan on seeking counseling as I know the destructiveness of unresolved anger. In the meantime, however, I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what they did to resolve it? Thanks in advance..

Please don't tell me to lock my cat in another room as she would go nuts therefore making the distraction worse :)

I put my feet under the couch (while wearing runners) but I always have. Why all of a sudden do they burn so bad? I have had no injuries or no other changes. Any suggestions? Thanks :)

I have tried taking Advil every four hours, taking Arthrotec (an anti-inflammatory), and having ice on it constantly. I can't sleep because of the pain and am just about at my wits end! Any suggestions within reason very much appreciated!

I've noticed that some days the moon is very visible during the day and | just can't seem to figure out why given the rotation of the earth.

With all the talk of global warming, I'm interested to hear what people have done individually to help out. Thanks in advance for your answers.

Please don't answer *garbage*. Seagulls have been here long before humans made garbage, so what do they eat when they come back to Northern Canada and things are still froze up? Since there are no bugs, worms, minnows, etc for them to eat yet, how do they live?

It's just something my kids and I were wondering. Thanks all.

My girl is 18 and has been with this "guy" who is the same age as her. He gets mad at her for wanting to spend time with her own family! for goodness sakes and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Last week he freaked out when they were in school calling her every name in the book, then very dramatically falling to his knees and sobbing for her forgiveness!! I'm trying not to get mad as I don't want her to stop talking to me, but it's driving me crazy!

PLEASE? Any advice?

I found this little tidbit in Yahoo! News. I thought I was going to be sick!

FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP) - A U.S. soldier was sentenced to 100 years in prison Thursday for the gang rape and murder of an Iraqi girl and the killing of her family last year.

"Sgt. Paul Cortez, 24, also was given a dishonourable discharge. He will be eligible for parole in 10 years under the terms of his plea agreement" - BIG WHOOP!

This American soldier was in a position of authority when he took part in a brutal gang rape against an innocent 14 year old girl and then had a hand in murdering this girls family and he's going to be eligible for parole in 10 YEARS??? What the heck is wrong with this countries judicial system!!

If they are appointed, who appoints them?

We have two budgies. One male and one female. I know the female is ready as her "seer" has changed to a rust colour but do male budgies do the same or is there a different sign for them?

I've downloaded it, and it says the file name is "a". Anyone have any suggestions? It just won't let me play, open the file or anything. HELP?

Just curious. i've never done it, so i'm just wondering.

This question was asked by a local newspaper, and I thought I would throw it out there for all who sees it to answer. I already have my answer. It will be interested to see how others answer. Thanks..

Okay, answer this one...

Brothers and sisters, I have none!

BUT that mans father is my fathers son!
