hi i went to meps about a month ago and failed the hearing test slightly. it was for the higher frequencies and i didnt think of it as a big deal at the time as i knew i would be dqd but i was told that i could still get a waiver.i had gotten a waiver in 06 but due to some circumstances beyond my control, i had to get discharged to the irr. so anyway,i waited for 2 weeks and supposedly the meps dr wrote it up as non waiverable. i was devastated as i went though alot to even get the chance to go in. i kinda feel like this was treated un fairly as i completed my training and had the same hearing loss the first time. it hasnt gotten any worse i barely even notice it. well im just not quite ready to give up yet, i know there may not be alot i can do however, i Would like the chance to retake the hearing test or something. does anyone know of anything i can do?? or can i talk the recruiter into letting me retake the test. is there anyone else i can speak to or is this it?

so i bought this tv from a friend. they said the tv laid flat and when it was stood up the picture is in black and white. i think it has color as there are colored dots on the menu screen but the rest is black and white. i tried adjusting the color as well as leaving it unplugged. does anyone know what could be wrong with it and if so how much would it be to fix it? it is a phillips magnavox to be specific.

ok, so i am a 27 year old homemaker of very lovely children. they are my world and i love spending time with them but unfortunately fact is that my boyfriend works very hard at his job in a factory but makes very little for it. our area seems to thrive off of tourists and there is little work to be found. and with hardly any public resources such as transportation we have no cabs or anything, hardly any daycare facilities, and family has moved away because of this. we want to move away as well and would like to start saving money its just impossible with his currant job. so with getting a regular job kinda out of the question, i would like to start something here where i can bring in some money on the side i am open for anything maybe something online, just not a scam or something. my first idea is to buy from like liquidationn or wholesale outlet and resell so my first question is does anyone know of some good websites for that? also can someone share about something they did to make extra money on the side? im kinda on a budget, but will consider all avenues. we will have taxes coming back and would like to invest some of it in a Business. i am well sorry so long but i really wanted ppl to understand the situation.

i can be small or very large. i can have alot of power or just a little bit you cant eat me cause then you could die.i can also pinch. i can not be played with if you have a pace maker. what am i???

ok,i posted a question last night about my engine overheating. but now that it is day, i have seen where it is leaking, and it is alot, coming from somewhere at the bottom of the resivior tank on the passanger side. it can be smelled in the car, however is not leaking from there.temp rose in about a half hour after the car was running, and i addad water which kept it at an even temp.temp went from cold to hot kinda quick and the service light came on even before i nopticed a problem. what can this be? i dont think it is the water pump because i was told it would just be a little from the "seep hole" but i dunno any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

i have a 2000 chevorlet cavilier. the service light came on about 4 days ago and there didnt seem to be anything wrong with the car so i dismissed it. then i noticed the temp gauge going up into the red after some water it cooled it off some but is still overheating what could it be and how expensive is it to fix any help would be appreciated. ps it is pretty cold here.

ok, i heard a song that was on my local radio station and the chorus was talking about california. it sounded kinda new, it was more like reegay i think but ill give ten points to whoever can find it or who knows what song it is thanks, this is driving me nuts!

The E-Mail

A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier. Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules.

So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day. The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room so he decided to send his wife an email. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her email address and without realizing his error, sent the email.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband’s funeral. He was a minister who was called home to glory following a heart attack. The widow decided to check her email expecting messages from relatives and friends.

After reading the first message, she screamed and fainted.

The widows son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor and saw the computer screen which read:

TO: My Loving Wife

SUBJECT: I’ve Arrived

DATE: October 16, 2007

I know you’re surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send emails to your loved ones. I’ve just arrived and have been checked in. I’ve seen that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then!!!! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was. P.S.

Sure is freaking hot down here!!!

Ammo Sell Out

All of the Wal-Marts across Alabama sold out of ammunition as of yesterday.

A reliable source said that one of the purchasers commented that while Russia may have invaded Georgia , they sure as heck ain't doin' it to Alabama .

Redneck Children

"You've just had your twelfth baby miss.

What are you going to name this one?"

"Phil.

"

"But you named the last eleven Phil.

"

"Yeah its great. I say Phil go clean the room, they all go clean their room. I say Phil come for dinner, they all come for dinner.

"

"But what if you only want one of them?"

"Oh! Then I call them by their last name.

"

Question

If a man says something in the woods and a woman does not hear him, is he still wrong?

The Dog

A wealthy man decided to go on a safari in Africa. He took his faithful pet dog along for company. One day the dog starts chasing butterflies and before long he discovers that he is lost. So, wandering about he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the obvious intention of having lunch.

The dog thinks, "Boyo, I'm in deep doo doo now." (He was an Irish setter).... Then he noticed some bones on the ground close by, and immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat.

Just as the leopard is about to leap, the dog exclaims loudly, "Man, that was one delicious leopard.

I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this the leopard halts his attack in mid stride, as a look of terror comes over him, and slinks away into the trees. "Whew", says the leopard. "That was close. That dog nearly had me.

"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So, off he goes. But the dog saw him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figured that something must be up.

The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The cat is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine.

"

Now the dog sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back, and thinks, "What am I going to do now?" But instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers pretending he hasn't seen them yet.

And just when they get close enough to hear, the dog says,

"Where's that monkey. I just can never trust him.

I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me another leopard, and he's still not back!!"

Forgetful Wife

After finishing their meal, they left the restaurant and resumed their trip.

When leaving, the elderly woman unknowingly left her glasses on the table and she didn't miss them until they had been driving about twenty minutes.

By then, to add to the aggravation, they had to travel quite a distance before they could find a place to turn around -- in order to return to the restaurant to retrieve her glasses.

All the way back, the elderly husband became the classic grouchy old man.

He fussed and complained and scolded his wife relentlessly during the entire return drive. The more he chided her -- the more agitated he became. He just wouldn't let up one minute.

To her relief, they finally arrived at the restaurant.

As the woman got out of the car and hurried inside to retrieve her glasses, the old geezer yelled to her

"While you're in there, you might as well get my hat and the credit card.

The Old Couple

A married couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.

Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table.

She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.

'

The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband.

'

The fairy waved her magic wand and poof! 2 tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.

The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.

'

The wife, and the fairy were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish.

So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof! The husband became 92 years old.

The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful jerks should remember fairies are female!
