I like to play Guitar, have been playing for four years, Clarinet for two years. I write stories, love to read good fantasy books, play soccer, and also play other sports with my friends. I am a frequent flyer too.

  • Greyhound or BoltBus?

    Before I get into any details, please note that I'm looking for people who have experience with both services and/or have substantial experience. I.e. I'm not interested if you've ridden one service once and have a view of the company based on that. A few on each or a lot on one is far more preferred.

    Anyway, I'm going to be traveling from Boston to New York on July 27th and am trying to decide which of these two bus lines to take. Please include details regarding comfort, punctuality, amenities… and so on.

    Thanks!

  • Behind stage tickets for Coldplay Mylo Xyloto Boston, TD Garden?

    Will behind stage tickets for Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto tour in Boston be bad? I know it depends on the stage setup so I'm curious if anyone knows the stage setup. And while I'm at it - is Ticketmaster the only RELIABLE source for tickets? Because I waited too long and they only have behind stage tickets for two - I could get in front if I was going alone - but some other sites appear to have two seats in front available.

    Thank you!

  • What was the first potion made in the Harry Potter Series?

    By that I mean not the first potion Harry and Hermione made or the first potion's class. There's all this information about what happened before that, in the history of the Wizarding World. In that history what was the first potion made? Otherwise how far back can potions be traced?

  • How do I deactivate Microsoft Office 2007?

    Okay, so here's what happened. I bought a new laptop and was downloading Microsoft Office 2007 onto it, which my parents had bought for my sister. Since you can only use it three times, I tried the top and went down because sometimes my sister likes to go from the bottom up. Anyway, it worked fine for a few days because my sister and I just happened to not be using it at the same time, but we had both installed it with that first code. So, apparently, we can't use it at the same time. (how it works is that you get three codes, each code can be used twice, like for office and home, but cannot be used at the same time). Obviously, this is a problem because if we're both at school using it whoever's on last doesn't get to use it.

    I've already uninstalled it from my Mac and I'm going to install using the second code tomorrow, but since the first code is uninstalled from my Mac, will my sister still be able to use the first code on another computer in addition to her laptop? Yes, we have a third code and all that, but this is mainly for curiosity's sake.

  • Who knows this book title?

    There's this movie I watched maybe two years ago, and a book I read a year before that. I can't remember the title of either right now, and it's driving me crazy!

    If someone could answer with the book/movie title, that'd be great.

    You'll get easy points!

    The book had this girl, and she found this dog.

    It took place somewhere south, and the dog had a gift of making everyone happy.

    Other Characters: Odis - a store owner, an Old Woman (who's name I forget), The Preacher (the girl's dad), The Librarian.

    If you know what I'm talking about, please answer.

    Thanks!

  • What do you think of this expert from my story/book?

    This is just a short expert, right now I have nine pages, but I'm just starting, if you're willing to read the whole thing, please say so, and I'll email you. But for now, I'd love some feedback on this section.

    As the ship neared, I saw that it was a magnificent ship, its sails had a large red dragon with a yellow background, and by yellow, I mean a deep golden yellow. The ship itself was made of a wood that was strong and sturdy. When the boat landed, I got a closer look at it; its mast was made of white oak, which was impressive because it was strong, and rot resistant. But white oak also is very much like red oak, but red oak is terrible, but the main reason why it was impressive that the entire ship was made of white oak was that white oak is extremely difficult to work with.

    I know I wasn’t supposed to, but I couldn’t resist, I snuck onto the boat, at first I heard someone shout, “Hey! What are you doing?” at first, I thought, Busted. But it was just the shipmaster yelling at the captain of the boat about how this boat wasn’t authorized with this port. Unfortunately that made me jump, so my head hit the railing of the boat above me, and the next time I heard “Hey! What are you doing?” it was actually at me.

    I crawled under the hard wooden railing, obscured from sight of anyone off the boat. I looked around hungrily, my eyes didn’t seem to get enough of what they saw, even though my dad was a merchant, this was actually the first time I’ve ever been on a boat, I just knew about them. Although, I forgot that there were stairs leading downstairs, so before I knew it, I was half way down a set of wooden steps, I also didn’t realize that I wasn’t hiding the sound of my steps very well. When I kept going down the stairs I realized that I could hear each step of mine, thump, thump, thump. Then I heard someone.

    “Hey, what was that noise?” I could tell it was a young woman, I heard chairs being pushed back, and for some reason, I kept going.

    “Ah, a stray, how amusing.” This time, I knew it was a young man; I looked up and saw three adults looming above me with their arms crossed.

    I don’t know why, but something didn’t seem right with them, not bad, but just… different. Their features were a little too sharp, their eyes didn’t seem to blink, their faces were very straight, and they seemed perfectly balanced even though the tide was coming in and the boat was beginning to rock. The woman had blonde hair and green eyes, which somehow made her seem taller than she probably was. The two men both had identical features, only blue eyes, they seemed just as tall, which made me feel smaller, as if I was shrinking. They all had very light skin too. I noticed for the first time that I was almost falling over.

    “Here, come,” said the other man. I asked myself, was I being taken prisoner, or am I being welcomed? Maybe both.

  • Who'll read my story?

    I was just asking who will read my story, it's eight pages long on Word, so it's rather lengthy, but if someone would read it, and give me feedback, I would be very grateful.

    To read it, send me an e-mail at Fmskid@gmail.com

    I'll send you a copy of it either on gmail, on a google document, or on a word attachment (your choice, tell me which).

    Then please give feed back on yahoo.

    It's just the beginning of the story, so it's not fully developed.

    Some thing that I'm curious about (I need another opinion besides me)

    Is some of it too complicated/hard to follow?

  • What are some great sci-fi/fantasy movies?

    I'm trying to find some good movies to watch, I like sci-fi and fantasy movies like I Am Legend, The Day after Tomorrow, and Eragon (yes, I know most people don't like Eragon, but I don't care, I liked it). I like a lot of Will Smith movies.

    No R rated movies, Pg-13 is OK, and violance and stuff like that is fine too.

    It doesn't have to be fantasy or sci-fi, I also liked movies like Hitch, The Visitor. So basically fantasy, comedy, maybe drama.

    Whoever lists the most movies I haven't seen, and sound good to me, will get the best answer. I don't need a lot about the movie, just a basic synopsis if you want.

    Thanks!
