I'm a Texan born and raised. I'm a mom and a wife. I look like my avatar ONLY in that I have that skin color, that color/style hair and that color eyes, and that shape face, and I'm always happy and smiling.
APB vs BOLO. I've watched enough crime investigation shows to know that APB stands for All Points Bulletin?
and BOLO stands for Be on the Lookout For. But does one directive hold more importance than the other? Or are they interchangeable?

1 AnswerBoard Games1 decade agoWhat's UP with all these people who have to answer a question with "I don't know"?
Do they have to answer every question they click on whether they know anything about the subject or not? They should leave it to those who DO know. Can't they just go back and click on another question? Sheeesh!

5 AnswersChristmas1 decade agoT.I. Urban Legend......Has anybody ever heard of this musical group? ?
I ended up with a whole box of their albums. Not only do I not even have a turntable anymore, I don't think this is my kind of music. I'd like to get rid of these albums. Would they be a good thing to put into a charity donation box? Or should I just dump them in the trash?
2 AnswersCountry1 decade agoA "stupid" cooking question......How do you keep banana slices from turning color when cut?
Like if you want to slice them and put them on top of a cream pie.....Does it work if you dip the banana slices into lemon juice after you cut them? Or does some other method work better?
Thanks guys!

3 AnswersOther - Yahoo Mail1 decade agoWhat's this mean? When you click on a Contacts avatar and a screen pops up that says this:?
"Oops The information you are looking for is not available."
Does that mean they are no longer on Y/A? Or they got banned or something? Only a couple of my contacts come up like that....most come up with an info screen. I was just wondering if I should delete them or not.
4 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoIs it TRUE? That they no longer make radio / CD players? OR sell them in stores? I can't seem to find any!
The one my mother has, while it still works, the lid won't stay shut. I was trying to find her a new one, but all the store websites I've hit only seem to carry DVD players. I know it's the latest technology and all, but ALL her music is on CD and since she's on a "fixed income" I'd HATE for her to have to replace ALL her music.

6 AnswersChristmas1 decade agoA serious question for Jehovah's Witnesses and Christmas? Please DON'T YELL at me! I really want to know this!
I posted this under R&S, but it might be better under Ettiquite? I'll try it here, too.
There is this lady who works at my mother's apartment complex. She is part of the maintenace staff. She is very sweet and and is extremely helpful to my mom. She's very friendly, and we talk regularly. As someone who celebrares Christmas, every year I bake goodies, or wrap little Christmas candles to give to casual acquaintences, such as neighbors, the postman, etc. This year I had planned to give a gift like this to each of my mom's maintenance staff. However, yesterday, in casual conversation I found out that this one woman is Jehovah's Witness. That's OK with me as I have NO bias whatsoever. However, my question is: Is it appropriate or in-appropriate to go ahead and give her this little rememberance? If it's not appropriate, should I scrap the idea of giving them to any of the maintenance staff? I would hate to give everybody something but her. But I don't want to commit

35 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoSoft Paws.....de-clawing alternative?
Does anybody have actual practical experience using these?
Here is my situation. We have 3 adult indoor cats. We didn't have them de-clawed when we first got them because the breeder we got them from "frowned upon it". I know....that was our mistake....they are our cats, and we should have, but we didn't. Now, we are faced with wanting to buy (nay--needing to buy) new furniture, but I don't want to spend big bucks only to have them destroy it yet again. I found out that it's going to cost us approximately $150-$200 per cat, which totals $450-$600 before we can even think about the cost of furniture. Soft Paws seems like a viable alternative, BUT I need to know from someone who has used them.....Are they easy to put on? Do the cats actually LET you play with their claws that long? How long do they actually last?
I just keep thinking that at $20 per cat for a 4 - 6 month supply it would be more cost effective to just have them de-clawed and be done with it. What would you?

13 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoAre you having (or had) a nightmare trying to wade through the U.S Passport system?
In order to obtain a U.S Passport? If so, I would love to hear your story.
Don't get me wrong......I can't solve your problem, but we are having major nightmarish issues of our own, trying to get hold of a passport for our infant grandson, and I would like to know who else is having issues, as well. I know we can't be the only ones. So far, it's been a mass of bureaucratic NONSENSE!
