I am 68 years old, and taught writing, literary theory and 19th Century Literature in college for a number of years. Right now I am working on a novel and a screenplay. I have four grown children and eight grandchildren. I am also an animal rescuer and have five cats and five dogs. I am a convert to Judaism, a vegan and politically eclectic. I love anything to do with religion, architecture and decorating, needlework, exercise and aerobics, and various kinds of theory. Yahoo Answers is my new favorite thing--it makes me happy every day to see how many smart, kind, generous people there are out there with so many kinds of expertise, and just plain great common sense.

2 AnswersOther - Yahoo Products7 years agoWhy is "My Yahoo" suddenly "Visiting My Yahoo Canada"? NOTHING is working right!?
I'm missing the usual links I use to navigate, and have to go to "My Yahoo Sign In" in a search to get there--then it seems to be the wrong place. Yahoo Help, as usual, has no suggestions.
Is there a setting, or something, I can use to fix this?
1 AnswerMy Yahoo8 years agoHow do I start up posting and responding in a Yahoo group I just started?
I started a writing group on Yahoo Groups, and can't find out how to get posting and response going. The group page needs to provide for people to post their writing, get and give critiques.
I tried Basics in Help, but it wasn't basic enough or helpful enough.
2 AnswersYahoo Groups8 years agoWhat did the old Bullock's boxes and gift boxes look like? I'm looking for what they were in the fifties.
I've already searched all the "vintage" sites, and the everything I can find with "Bullock's" anywhere on the page.
I remember there was a brown and white striped box. I remember there was a gold and pink I. Magnin's gift box. I remember there was a light pink and dark magenta gift box from one of the two stores, but can't remember which one. I need the description of Bullock's Wilshire boxes in the fifties. Can't imagine why I don't remember--I sure used to love to get them.
3 AnswersFashion & Accessories1 decade agoWhere can I find the names of designer lipstick brands during the mid-fifties?
I have looked all over the net and can't find what I'm looking for. I am particularly interested in a color called "Mondrian Coral." These lipsticks came in long brushed gold cases that flattened out and mimicked the shape of paint brushes. They had the names of famous painters. These were not drug store lipsticks, but sold in fashionable department stores.

2 AnswersNotices and Errors1 decade agoHow can I save my Mal?
I keep a red desert heat lamp on all the time, and I keep the mosture level between 20 and 40 percent. The temperature is around 100 degrees in the daytime and between 80 and 90 at night. She has a uv light, a full spectrum light and the heat lamp. I also have a ceramic heater going over the top of the tank to keep it dry. When she eats, she only will eat Brusell's sprouts and meal worms. I have some dry adult Iguana food in there for her if she wants it, but I think she had such a loss of calcium when I got her that her gums aren't very good now, and chewing is hard. She is trying desperately to shed, but huge pieces of skin are haning on her back. She has never managed to shed completely since I've had her. I put her in a warm water bath to bask a couple of times a day. I am told she is probably not quite an adult, because she is small, but since she doesn't eat well and never had the light or habitat she should for so long, she could just be small from starving. Thanks.
5 AnswersReptiles1 decade agoHow can I save my Uromastyx Mali--I love her.?
When I moved into my new home the Mali was left her by the former owners. She was in very bad shape. That was nine months ago and I have been trying everything I can think of and taking her to the vet, and nothing makes her healthy. I have all kinds of lights, have tried all kinds of underlayments and climbing and hiding fixtures in her habitat. She has a pool and heaters under the tank, Calcium and other supplements. Every time I think we are doing better, she starts losing her skin and is at death's door again. Right now she is worse than she has ever been. She hasn't eaten anything in three weeks or defecated in a month. The vet has me putting baby food around her mouth. I am so depressed and scared of losing her, I don't know what to do. My Liza is just shriveling right in front of me. Please help if you know about Malis.
3 AnswersReptiles1 decade agoWhy can't I answer my own question about not being able to cut and paste online?
The answer was that I had a page open to work offline and had to close it before I could do any work online. I chose a best answer anyway, because it was kind and thoughtful and informed.
5 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoWhen I open documents on my Mac iBook, the print is huge and I can't fix it.?
I have trouble seeing small print, and very often use a zoom to get larger text. I've been doing this with no problem for years. Now all of a sudden, EVERY file I open that I have saved or am saving has a huge font. I've tried the FORMAT PALETTE, but to no avail. I must have done something, but I can't figure out what. Can anyone help with this?
2 AnswersOther - Computers2 decades agoHow do I complain about being denied services on a website where I registered?
I registered with "TV.com" and they said I could use the site to find information and to write comments and join in the community. After I was registered and tried to use the services, I was told that I must be a level 2 user to have the priviledge of writing anything on the website. I tried every way I can to contact them to find out how to become a level 2 user, but they have no contact information available, and no unsubscribe procedure. I would like to reach them. Now, since I think it is just a scam to give my information out to list providers, I want to request to have my information removed, but they provide no way to do that. What can I do?
