How to delete music albums I have on iTunes, Amazon, etc?
1 AnswerOther - Music6 years agoWords that are considered bad, but do not rate Explicit Lyrics?
I pretty much know words like hell, and damn may "slide" when recording music for an album. I just want to know which words I can use before the RIAA would require an "Explicit Lyrics" Label on my album (due to release later this year). If I can figure it out now, then I can make changes if necessary to remove the content. The CD to be made after this (around 2 years later) will contain coarse language and I am not too concerned about that, but this first one cannot.
3 AnswersLyrics8 years agoHow to promote my promotional CD?
I have recently subscribed (August 2012) to Reverbnation.com. Since then, I released a promotional album, which they had sent out to all sorts of retailers across the internet, such as Google Play and iTunes (both of which I have visually seen my album available for purchase) yet I have not recieved a dime for anything, no sales reports. I even promoted using reverbnations "promote it" option and spent $350 doing so, to no avail. I really need the publicity to get my music career going and nothing is taking lift. Since its a promotional album, it only has 7 songs, and my true album is ready for take off, 18 tracks to include the first 7 from the promo, but I will not move in on that yet. What do I need to do to get people to buy my album, and go public? Am I going through the wrong channels or what needs to be done to get this moving?
2 AnswersOther - Music8 years agoI am having pre-proposal issues?
I have finally found my one and only girl. She is exactly what I have been searching for, and it took many years to find. Yet, we've only been together for about a month, but have known each other for about 3. I am shopping around for an engagement ring, and am ready to buy one, BUT not give it to her just yet.
My real problem lies within when to give it to her, and getting the right size. Put simply in these 2 questions:
1) How do I find her size without making it obvious, she has no rings to go off of, and she's more clever and cunning than me, so if I found a possible solution to get her size secretly, she'd more than likely figure it out.
2) I love this woman with all my heart, and I know I want to be with her forever. We have pretty much skipped ahead and started saying "I love you" and with her, I feel it, more than ever. She always makes me happy, and by now, I usually have doubts in a relationship, which usually proves true. This one, however, doesn't give me any fears, or worries. She is utmost supportive in EVERYTHING I do, always willing to help, and I do the same for her. She's not one to move too fast, yet, she's gone against her traditional ways for me, and I have as well for her. She mentioned something from TV about people who were married 1 week after meeting, and said "They should wait at least a month or 2", possibly hinting something there, although all I want is to propose to her, wait at least a year to get married. When should I propose, and how?
Please this is bugging me, and I can't stop thinking about her, she is totally awesome, my whole world, my 1 and only.
4 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships8 years agoIs it too soon to tell?
My girlfriend and I have been together (officially) a week, but we've talked for a couple months. Before we dated, we were hinting how our relationship would be. She tells me how much she likes me. I keep up with the traditional "good morning" and "good night" texts. We always talk on the phone, and she even had me over at her place last weekend.
She tells me that she's falling for me, more and more each day and this morning I woke up to a text from her saying "I like u more than u know". I really have feelings for her, and the more we talk, text and spend time together, the stronger my feelings get.
She's already done the whole marriage and kids thing, and is now divorced with custody of her kids. I have no children nor have I ever been married. I just want to keep her happy and keep this relationship from falling apart.
I can feel true chemistry when we're together, even if its just sitting somewhere together, holding hands, and that's it. There's definitely an emotional connection during sex, because afterwards we're just holding each other.
She says she has never fallen for someone this fast and neither have I. Is this a good sign?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years ago(GIRLS ONLY) I need advice on a girl I like?
Here's the situation, I am a U.S. Marine stationed in North Carolina, she's a girl living back in California, where we both grew up. We've been more-less acquaintances for a bit, and I actually met her by hanging out with her brother (Although he is kinda the friend we all love to hate). We talk every now and then, but I've developed some slight feelings for her. I don't know how to get her attention without it being too obvious since, I'm not home. I'd like to preferably start slow, just mostly getting her to notice me a little differently. Start out by being friends, but perhaps establishing something in the future (I don't exactly know when I am getting out of the Military) but for now work this angle, eventually just letting her know that I like her, but not coming off as pushy, clingy, or a coward.
I was reading things on what girls like in a guy, but it only applied to actual couples, though I had thoughts and visions of being that ideal guy for her (I'm a generous and caring man). I just need to win her over, before I make my move.
Oh and on that note, do most women also find guys who can sing and play guitar attractive? Just wondering, since I've been musically inclined for 10 years.
5 AnswersSingles & Dating9 years agoHealthy Foods for the Barracks Life?
I am trying to figure out to eat healthy, and make my own healthy foods...my dilemma is I live in a barracks room. Here are the items I am authorized to use in preparing foods: A microwave and a coffee maker. Is there some good foods that can be made using only these and maintaining a healthy eating habit? I cannot go and stay with friends who have a stove, nor go anywhere period, other than the store. I have a great idea of buying groceries, but only for a lifestyle outside the barracks. It's been 6 years since I have bought normal groceries so I really need to do this.

I am a musician, with over 10 years experience. However I have yet to go on stage, and would like a little insight on what to wear for live performances. Price is not really an issue but I would like to save when buying my clothes. My question would more likely be what store to buy from, what exactly to buy, and what combinations would look good?
3 AnswersPerforming Arts9 years agoQuestions about a crush?
IDK why this has hit me so long after I met the person....Basically there's this girl I went to kindergarten with. Today is her 27th birthday (My 27th was exactly 3 weeks ago). I really never thought about this much in school, and we even graduated together about 8 years ago. This feeling didn't hit me until about 2 years after graduation, and yet I still haven't told her. These feelings pretty much came and went, and were never stable. Well on FB it popped up that it was her birthday and I went ahead and posted "happy birthday". Just then it all hit me at once, and I wonder why I never felt this before. I never felt this way around her, and IDK why, but now I do and its hitting me like a rock. The problem that really exists is I am in the military, and she's back where we grew up. (3000 miles away). Our only means of communication would be FB, and I really don't feel like being blunt about this. How would I explain this to her, without sounding cheesy, and corny?
Singles & Dating9 years agoIssues with waking up on time?
I am currently on Restriction in the Marine Corps, and have been for 42 days out of a 60 day sentence. I am required to make check-ins every so often, for example on a normal weekday I have check in at 6 am, 6pm, 8pm and 10pm. On weekends its every 2 hours. I have been late to check in 4 times already, twice on Saturday, which didn't get too much attention, and this morning, which didn't seem to get any negative repercussions. However after 14 days, the duty who was supposed to check me in, made it a big deal, and I got threatened with brig orders and all sorts of other crap. Though today's tardiness went somewhat well, I was overly exerted from running there and from the adrenaline rush of being late. I hate that feeling. I have about 2 weeks left on restriction, and do not want to be locked up because my alarm didn't wake me up. I cannot go to sleep before 10pm and have to be up around 5-5:30 am just to make my morning check ins. This isnt a normal routine for me, and most of the time I can do it fine, but there's always that one slip up here and there. I can no longer afford to risk missing it, and I have alarms go off at 4:15, 4:30, 4:50, 5:15, and 5:30. Well I woke up to the first 2, but for some reason my other ones never woke me up. I need to figure this out so I can get up on time everytime no matter what. Is there something I can do, idk medication, a subliminal tactic, just something so I can be assured a good nights sleep and getting up in time.
1 AnswerOther - Health9 years agoHelp in Game Hacking?
I have dabbled around with hacking game boy games on my computer, but I wanna try something new. I realized that many hackers will take an old NES game concept and apply it to a SNES game, using the advanced graphics, music, etc. I know they re-created Bionic Commando for the PS3, but I wanted to up the NES version just to Super NES. First off I need somethings to help.
* What hacking utilities would be sufficient for this?
* Which SNES Rom would come close to make this game?
* Where can I find the Music for Bionic Commando (NES), and something that can make it sound like a SNES games music?
3 AnswersProgramming & Design9 years agoUsing Excel to automatically score based on information?
I am setting a little game picks for the following NFL games at work. I am using excel to track the people who bought in, and then list their team picks for each game played. I have used sheet 1 as the team picks, and sheet 2 to hold scoring (I.E. they pick winning team = 1 point, losing = 0) I want to set up some sort of formula so it automatically scores each team based of win/loss, and that way everyone who bet that game gets automatically scored. How can I do this?
4 AnswersSoftware9 years agoBuying a car without a license?
I have had a couple of permits, both of which have expired as I don't find time, or someone trusting in me to practice driving their car. I will get a new permit to drive, knowing a licensed Class C driver must accompany me at all times. I would like to buy my first car, prior to getting my license, so I can drive it, get comfortable with it, and then take my drivers test for my license.
My question is how do I go about buying a car without a license, and should I bring a licensed driver with me?

4 AnswersRenting & Real Estate9 years agoCreating a super-hero comic....anime?
Since high school (about 10 years ago) I derived an idea for a new for a superhero, but I wanted to make it Anime/ Manga, rather than original, or similar to the new batman/ superman, etc styles.

1 AnswerComics & Animation9 years agoWith all the scams online, what are these called and why do people do it?
I am frustrated with my failed (real life) relationships, and kinda have no choice meeting people online. Well in 2010, I met a girl on Myspace IM, and we chatted for about 4 months, before I ended it, not knowing it was a hoax. We exchanged pics, and what not, but she never called, just texted and messaged, even in the skype chatroom, I was the only one with a cam. She never asked for money, just wanted to be my lover. She claimed she was from Wisconsin.
This next one, which I am still kinda talking to, I met her on a website to meet people from all over the world, Interpals. She was from Iceland, and from the get go, knew I was a Marine. She even said she was visiting family at a duty station near mine, and talked about meeting up. This transpired only 3 days ago, with her last "attempt" to actually come down last night. We didn't exchange pics, she only wants to "be with me" and even said shes wants to lose her virginity to me, but hasn't made a true effort. The last thing she said was "let me get ready to come see you" and she never called or texted, but she has my number. Again she didn't ask for money. Why do people pose as a person and lure someone into a relationship online just to break their hearts, but nothing is gained on the attackers part? This makes no sense, and it's only making me more frustrated.

1 AnswerSingles & Dating9 years agoSo the girl I like finally admitted something to me, something I did not want to really hear?
There's this girl that I liked. We had been talking through facebook mostly, although I see her like everyday. I would have dreams about her, and I had asked a question here a while back about the one dream I had about seeing her with another man, and how hurt and upset it really made me feel.
Well it appears the dream (or nightmare if you'd prefer) has come true. She finally came out and told me that she wishes to stop leading me on by not being upfront, and told me she was engaged (OUCH!)
I have dealt with such rejection in my whole life, but for some reason, all I want to do is sit in a corner and cry. It's not really a man's thing to do, but I feel so small, after months of building myself up to talk to her, just to find this out.
Last time I had the same issue, instead of crying I wrote a song, but now I have nowhere to start with another one. I feel so crushed right now, and finally believe there is no one out there for me, like at all. I have tried so hard to find someone, and yet this kind of thing happens all the time but I thought I'd be pretty used to rejection, especially by a girl as pretty as her, but I'm dead inside.
I have no one, and nowhere to even start looking. I'm blinded, and destroyed, crushed beyond all imagination. Not even my guitar will guide me now. What does a guy have to do to stop these feelings over someone he knows he will never have. This is the 2nd time in 2 years this has happened to me and I am shaking as I am typing, holding in my emotion due to being at work. I cannot say what I am thinking, but know that I am in some serious need of guidance. Girls don't just come and go for me, and ironically I am not a bad looking guy, I stay in shape, and try to keep up with my health, which has been slowing failing due to other reasons.
I need someone who will treat me right, my ex did, but also dumped me for unknown reasons, and didn't even tell me that she was going to do it. It's hard finding someone when you don't have a lot of money after bills, and savings storage so I can't go out and meet someone. This problem will haunt me for such a long time until I can find someone....please give me some guidance on how to cope with such a heartbreaking issue :'(
