I ♥ men in uniform
I would aspire to be a Y!A Troll (because I think they are funny), but i'm not that witty and can't think fast. By the time I could think of something the question would already be solved. I have tried to ask funny questions, but only one of them was successful, the others either got negative responses or no responses at all. I answer random questions and like to go to the military section to find out more on military matters (see my name).
How do I healt the scratch on the back of my cat's neck?
My cat has a hurt on the back of his neck. It will scab over, and then he'll scratch it off, and it's back to square one. Recently, he has scratched it even more, and ripped the fur off of even more of his neck. He is totally an inside cat, and I can't cut his claws because of the adoption agreement. I was thinking about putting peroxide and neosporin on it. How do I keep him from scratching it and making it worse?
3 AnswersCats1 decade agoI have a time-consuming schedule. When should I eat?
Here is my Monday through Thursday schedule:
7am-Wake up
11am-4pm work
5pm-8pm Class
11pm-Sleep
So, when should I eat? I try eating from 4-5pm, but after I get out of class, I am hungry again. But if I eat when I get home around 8:30, I get heartburn.
And when I eat, what types of foods should I eat?

That says "I love men in Uniform" or "I love cops"? One woman said that she got pulled over a lot by curious police officers. What would you think, and how may you react?

3 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police1 decade agoOn my Facebook homepage, how do I get a tab for a specific application?
On Facebook on your homepage, there are tabs that you can click on to get news stories. For example: News Feed (shows all updates), TN State (shows all updates in that network), photos(shows all photos). I have one for Farmville and it shows all Farmville updates for all my friends. Well, I have another application (Happy Aquarium) that I want to get updates and new postings for. It appeared one day, and I wanted to keep it, but the next day it wasn't there. How do I get it back?
1 AnswerFacebook1 decade agoHow do I add an application to my news feed on my home page on Facebook?
When you go to your home page on Facebook, on the left there is a list of options to click on for news updates.For example: News Feed, Status Updates, Photos, Links, etc... I have one for Farmville so that I may see what people are posting through the Farmville application. I didn't make it, it was just there. I want to do one for another application, Happy Aquarium. How do I go about doing this?
2 AnswersFacebook1 decade agoWould you go to the movie theater and watch a 5 hour long "New Moon"?
I read recently that the current uncut version of New Moon is five hours long; which I'm pretty sure will seriously be edited to be much shorter. But, I was just wondering, would any of you watch New Moon even if it was five hours long? And if not, if they put that version in a special edition dvd, would you buy it and watch it?
I would.
16 AnswersMovies1 decade agoHow to make my PowerPoint background lighter?
First of all, I have Office '97. I had someone send me a 2007 background template I downloaded off the Office website. They put it into compatibility mode. That isn't an option now, I have to do everything myself.
What I need is the same background that I have now, just lighter. Can someone please explain to me how to do that? It's not a picture background.
3 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoDoes the belief of extraterrestrial beings go against your beliefs (especially Christians)?
Does the belief of aliens go against your religion?
One day I was watching TBN (or Trinity Broadcasting Network) and watched a movie called Unidentified. It was about two reporters who went to investigate UFO sightings. And I think the final message of the story was that UFOs and the belief of aliens was the work of the devil to separate people from God. And, those people who supposedly saw the UFOs weren't really believers in God.
I consider myself a Christian. But, I think that if God created us (and the Universe) couldn't He have also created other living beings?
What is your view?
15 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoMen: What would you do if your date didn't "give it up" after the third date?
Or fourth, or fifth, or even sixth. What if she told you she wasn't going to until she knew you for at least 6 months? (And by "give it up" I meant have sex).
What would you do in these situations:
1)No contact at all (holding hands, kissing).
2)Contact (like hug, holding hands), but no kissing
3)Kissing Ok, but nothing else
4) Kissing, and oral sex ok, nothing else
Would you dump her? Would you stay with her, but cheat? Would you be cool with it?
This is if you really liked her, and could see yourself in a serious relationship with her if isn't wasn't for the whole sex issue.
10 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoIf a 15 yr. old commits a crime and gets caught 10 years later, how are they charged?
Are they charged as an adult? They wouldn't go to juvenile, right? Is sentencing different for an adult and minor. For example, when a minor as charged as a minor instead of an adult, is the years spent in prison different? For explanation purposes, let's say the crime is a bank robbery. If that's not a good example, then the crime is 5 stolen cars.
6 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoWho sings that song "God is able to deliver from the fire"?
And where can I find the lyrics. I know bits and pieces of the song, as well as the chorus. The chorus goes:
God is able,
God is able,
To deliver
from the fire
he will rescue
those who serve him
when the flames are
burning higher.
Other parts of the song I think include:
"my God will provide a way"
"thrown into the flames that day"
"hear the children say"
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhat would you think if you saw someone wearing two different shoes?
Today I accidentally wore two different shoes. They are about the same style, but one is brown and the other is black. I need to walk across the street go get something to eat (in a hospital), and I don’t want to seem weird. My outfit is business casual, but my shoes are different. What would you think about this?
17 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoIs The Old Spaghetti Factory appropriate for a graduation dinner?
I am graduating from College in August (in Nashville), and I was just wondering if the Old Spaghetti Factory would be appropriate for a graduation dinner. Just to give you an idea, we ate at Logan's for my cousin's college graduation and PF Chang from my brother's. Do you think that the atmosphere and food is appropriate? If not, do you have any suggestions (I need for it to be moderately priced, no Ruth Chris suggestions).
4 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoWhat makes somebody want to be or become a rapist?
http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/07/22/arizona.juveni...
I just read a story about four boys (ages 9, 10, 13, 14) who sexually assaulted an 8 year old girl. I assume that means they raped her.
What makes these young boys want to do such a thing? Do you think it was peer pressure, or is it cultural? They were from Liberia. I know that just because they are Liberian doesn't mean they are going to rape somebody, but I just wonder does it have something to do with the culture? The girl was also Liberian, and when her parents found out about it they treated her differently (and I assume adversely since she was placed in child protective services)
The 14 year old was charged as an adult. Do you feel this is appropriate? If not, what do you feel is appropriate?
5 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoDo extremists really believe what they teach/preach?
Or do they do it for the power that comes from having a lot of followers that do what they say without question? Or being scared of them? For example, Bid Laden or Tony Alamo.
3 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoWhat is the schedule like for reserve training?
Whenever I read about the reserves (like the Army or Marines) I see that they train one weekend a month? Is that true? Does the training last all weekend? Are they gone the whole weekend, or do they come home at night? How long does it last (like when they get there, and when the leave)? What is the training like, what do they do (in general)? Just curious, i'm not thinking of trying to join or anything. I know it probably varies, so i'm just looking for in general.
3 AnswersMilitary1 decade agoOn Y!A, what is your reason for setting your Q&As private, and are you annoyed by trolls?
1)First of all, what exactly is a troll? I've heard that it is someone who askes annoying questions and answers with annoying answers. I've also heard that it is someone who is always reporting somebody? Which is it?
2) Why do people not answer the question with a correct answer? For example, when a person asks an question why do people answer with a "you suck" or "lol" instead of a real answer?
3) Also, If your questions, answers, and profile information or set to private on yahoo answers, what are personal reasons for setting them that way?

9 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade agoWhat happened to Scottish men over the years?
This is stupid. On romance covers Scottish men are all big, brawny, tall, tan, and good looking. Then you look at pictures from Scotland, and the Scottish men in the pictures are pale, pasty, skinny men, that aren't that great looking. Was Edward Longshanks successful in breeding them out (like in Braveheart)? lol.
But seriously, did Scottish men ever look like that? Was I just looking at the wrong pictures, and they still exist? I'm not trying to be funny. I'm serious. I even tried to google hot scottish men, and phrases along those lines, just to see if anyone remotely resembling the romance covers appears. They didn't.
