If you're writing a story, and you want to say an event took place in the winter of such and such a year, what year do you specify?

For any other season you can say, for example, the spring of 2006 or the fall of 2007, but since winter occurs during two consecutive years, would you include both years (the winter of 2006-2007), or one of the two (which one)?

I was doing a bio lab today where we had to handle sheep's blood. My instructor, jokingly I assume, told us it was "HIV negative... hopefully."

That kind of freaked me out, especially since I have a bunch of cuts on my hands and I was handling the blood without gloves or anything. If the blood should happen to have been diseased, is there any way it could infect me? This is probably a stupid question but I'm kind of paranoid about this.

I'm writing an essay for a single book. Do I have to cite each individual chapter and page number that I reference, or just the book as a whole?

I'm currently in my first semester of college, and taking a composition class. Essays will be a part of this, and they have to be in MLA style.

What's the best program to use for this (i.e. MS Word, Office, etc)?

I'm a community college student taking a composition class. As part of the class, we have to keep a journal, writing about different topics the instructor gives us.

She clarified in her syllabus that these journal entries must be "single-spaced". These aren't typed; we just use a regular paper notebook and pen. In this case, what does single-spaced mean? Does that mean that instead of continuing my writing on the next line, I have to skip a line? So then every second line in the notebook would be blank? Or is it the opposite and I shouldn't skip any lines, so that every line has writing on it?

I can put the text in the little answer box, but half the time the "Submit" button doesn't show, so I can't enter it. What's up with that?

My internet was acting all screwy. I did a system restore and when it was finished I couldn't get Internet Explorer to open. I click the icon, and there's a flash, like it's going to open, but then it goes away. Is there anyway to fix this?

Are there Amish med schools or do they let them go to the city to get a degree?

I asked this in the STD section but I don't wanna wait for an answer.

The first guy to get AIDs couldn't have caught it from somebody else, so how did he get it?

He couldn't have caught it from somebody else so...?

On the old green layout you could see a list of all your contacts and fans but now I can't find one.

With a survey about the new layout?

Each wife had seven sacks.

Each sack had seven cats.

Each cat had seven kittens.

Kitten, cats, sacks, and wives,

have you ever seen Die Hard 3?

The "f" word, of course, that rhymes with "buck".

On yourself, I mean.
