I have an etiquette question. My sister is getting married in a few weeks. What is the tradition for a Maid of Honor to gift to the bride and/or groom? Appreciate any suggestions.

Yesterday, my best friend, who is more like a sister called me at my new job. I was the only one here at the time. She told me her step-father had passed away and she needed me to come right away. I told her I could not come right now because I was the only one in the office and could not close the business. She got angry and hung up on me. She thinks I chose my boss over her and is very hurt and very angry. I tried to explain that I could come as soon as someone else got here, but I couldn't leave immediately.

I love her very much and never wanted to hurt her. What can I do to make her see that I did not choose my job over her, but that I had to wait until someone else could come into the office?

Please, no negative comments, I'm sick over this whole thing.

I've recently lost two very special people. I know what I believe happens with them when they die, but I'd like to hear what others have to say. Thank you. Please, no crackpot jokes, I'm still hurting from my losses.

My son is 22 years old. He's only been out on his own since last October and has been living on a workman's comp settlement. The money is almost gone and he still hasn't gone to work. I don't want him to have to move back home. He has a history of depression. He's currently taking med, but I am beginning to believe that he CAN'T work. He doesn't seem to have the drive or motivation to do anything. I'm at wits end because I don't want him to end up on the streets. Anyone here have a similar situation? What can I do? I'm desparate for answers. Thanks to all in advance.

I'm going to see some elderly family in May and would like to learn a few words of Cherokee to let them know I respect the People. Anyone know where I can get books or CDs or any help to learn some of the language?

Thanks!

If you do, please send them a thank you on this post!

MAY THE CREATOR BLESS YOU AND BRING YOU ALL HOME SAFELY!

Does anyone have this recipe? I had these when I was a little kid and want to make some now. I know it had peanut butter, sugar, chocolate and oatmeal, but I don't remember what else.

Thanks!

I really need to quit smoking. Any tips from ex-smokers out there? What made it easier for you to quit?

Thanks!

EMO - short for "emotional." Emo is a broad title that covers a lot of different styles of emotionally-charged punk rock. This site is intended to introduce the reader to all the common styles, describe them musically, and give ideas about the essential records of all those styles.

Just wondering. My last one was 41! Get the fire extinguisher!!

My daughter is getting married in May. She wants to have as nice a wedding as possible but the budget is pretty small. We have about $3,000 total for everything. Any ideas of do-it-yourself money saving ideas for decorations, etc.? Thanks a million!!

I took a Professional Paralegal Exam in September and just got my results back. I missed getting the certification by two questions. I can retake the exam in March, but I'm so bummed out about it, I don't know if I even want to. Any advice? Thanks.

It's too long of a story to get into, but I have a former friend who I still care about. I helped raise her daughter and now that "our" daughter is about to have a baby, my friend has decided to "sever" all ties with me. What did I do and what can I do to get through to my friend?

That guy has been in her asking child molestation questions for at least two days! Keep reporting him whenever you see him. Maybe Yahoo will ban him. I got in trouble yesterday for posting a question like the one above and got a nasty gram from Yahoo. Oh well, I'm not the only one reporting everything that phycho is posting.
