i've gone thru the instructions on the yahoo IM help...but nothing is working!!

I am trying to find my nephews myspace page..when i typed it in 3 thousand & some sites came up...come on...do i hafta go thru ALL of them? I don't know what school he went to or his zipcode......i tried googling & 3 MILLION came up....i just don't have that kinda time.....lol

what exactly are "trolls" on yahoo answers? And if they are really bad people...can't they lose the privilege of participating?

I have 2 packets of seasoning for hot wings (a dry mix of spices,etc.) I don't see an expiration date anywhere on them...can they get bugs...being sealed? I opened one up to check it out & saw black specks but they were teeny & I'm thinkin' they're just spices...what do YOU think?...safe to use?

okay...my home phone is about $50.00 per month...I hardly ever use a phone but now want to convert to a cellphone only. The thing is..I know NOTHING about them....I did check out verizon..online & found that their basic pkg. is 39.99 plus the price of the phone,right? Do you have to commit to a contract on all cell phones? What about trac phones...your opinion? I wouldn't really care about text messaging,pics,music,etc. I need a cheap dependable phone...help!

I have tried at home (i don't have an outdoor grill)...to make thin,thin hamburgers similiar to the ones at Steak N Shake. Some people just call them homestyle burgers. I drain the fat off as I'm cooking them & get the pan real hot before putting the patty in.....are there any secrets? Thanks to all who answer...I don't like big thick burgers!

Now that I have downloaded some pics onto my pc....how do I transfer them to other sites & send them to my sister via e-mail? A simple explanation would be great....thanks!

I have had blonde hair for years...well..several months ago I had the bright idea of going back to my natural color..which I would say is medium brown. About 2 months ago,I used an ash blonde to lighten my hair & it got DARKER!!! I called the help line & she said that there are no products out there that will give me a nice blonde shade without frying my hair. That I would have to initially get it done professionally then I could maintain it at home. Right now, my hair is a light brown,a very bland color & I don't like it at all. I cannot afford to go to the salon at this time-(just starting a new job Wed. after being unemployed for months)...Do you have any advice on lightening my hair at home with no bad effects...or should I just wait until I can go to a salon? And how much does it cost...I'm sure I will need to have it bleached? Thanks to all who answer :)...oh, i should tell you that I used L'oreal Blondissemes years ago...would that work for me now?

i have some strawberry sauce in the fridge that I need to do something with. I looked up TONS of wing recipes & noticed that some have fruit....like pineapple,raspberries & orange. Do you think I could do one with this strawberry sauce? And if so...what else should I add? If not wings...other suggestions would be appreciated too. (the sauce doesn't have any strawberries in it)

Every town has at least one...tell me your fav & why it's your fav....like fav food there or atmosphere,etc.....

Okay...I've had some frozen whitefish fillets in the freezer for probably 7 months...by the way..they were already frozen when I bought them. Are they still good to eat or should i pitch 'em?

Years ago we had a restaurant here that served sandwiches called beef boats. They were on a baked french type bread. The beef was lean & thinly sliced. Okay...easy so far...huh?! Okay now for the kicker...the beef "gravy" that was on them was rich DARK brown & transluscent...kinda like a real thick beef consumme..it was not just regular beef gravy. Anyone have any idea how I might recreate this type of sauce or gravy? Thanks to all who answer~~

My pkg. of Quaker Oats does not have the recipe on it..I would like a recipe that does NOT have raisins in it & can they be made with oil or like country crock instead of butter or shortening? Thank you....

Are there any pet owners out there who have used this product? If so...does it work ? (for the odor & to keep the pet from going in the same area again) It's kinda expensive so I thought I would ask others before I actually try it.

my mom used to make an apple cake (she called it apple strudel,but it really wasn't)...It was very dense & moist & i don't remember any kind of frosting on it..but there may have been cuz i was very small. She was from kentucky & an excellent cook..if that helps at all...Thanks everyone~~

i have beer,white zin wine,browning liquid & spices. But i have no soy or teriyaki sauce. I really don't want a "sweet" marinade just something to mainly tenderize bottom round steaks...Thanks to all who answer~~

My birth name is different from my maiden name. I was adopted at 6 months of age & they changed my name. So..when looking into numerology..which name would i use? My birth name or the one my adoptive parents changed it to? This is never addressed when you are learning about numerology. Thanks for your time~~

This was in like Woman's Day or Family Circle magazine about 27 years ago (no kidding). It was kinda like a magic cookie bars...it had coconut,sweetened condensed milk (i think) and maraschino cherries. It was so good...hope someone out there can help. Thanks!

i have a 5 disc RCA stereo...i know not great but it's a decent little unit. The problem is it was working fine one day & then the next time ( i don't know how long it was) i went to play a cd....no sound whatsoever. It looks like it's playing the tracks but nothing on the radio,tapes,etc. I thought maybe it was the speakers,so i tried a different set...still nothing. I may have had some power outages & someone suggested that they may have blown my transistors (whatever those are). The stereo is only 3 years old & i want to know if it would be worth taking it to a shop to have someone look at it & fix it. The unit cost about $150.00 & i know that's not much but right now i can't afford to buy a new one. Any advice from anyone??

i've never had the imitation crabmeat. I know it's suppose to be okay in salads but does it taste like the REAL thing when dunked in melted butter? i'm just curious & i love king crab legs but gosh...they are so expensive. Just thought i'd ask & get different people's opinions. Thanks.....
