  • Can my husband return to car he just bought?

    just after Christmas my husband went and bought a used truck. He says that they agreed on a finial price of 16200. but when he got his first bill from the bank is was 17400. i didn't go with him since i was out of town visiting family. i looked at the papers and say an extra charge for "Premium Service Charge" of 1288 making the total financed 17400. He said his going to go and talk with the dealership this weekend and return the car if they cannot honor the agreed upon price.

  • Help pick a Historical Research Topic?

    I just wanted some help on picking a research topic. I am taking a Historical research class this semester it will be 20 pages and must have at least 7 Primary Sources to back it up.

    I love European History. Mostly Renaissance and Medieval, such as the Tudor Dynasty, Charlemagne, and the Crusades; it is harder to find Primary Sources than modern i know but Modern history (20th century) doesn't excite me as much. Any thoughts... Thanks!

  • reaction to penicillin testing?

    Now i could just be overreacting but whatever...

    We are currently testing my daughter (who is 18 months) for her antibiotic allergy, Tue we tested for a penicillin allergy. Everything came up as negative.

    Well Wed morning she woke up with a very deep horse/dry cough. we've been able to give her cough stuff to help her but it comes back within a few hours, Poor thing this cough just makes her cry b/c it hurt.

    Is there any Link between the new cough and her being tested???????

    FYI: Now her brother also has a cough but his is due to a sinus infection and it soundscompletelyy different b/c he has congestion so its not dry at all.

  • Books about Queen Mary I of England?

    I am doing an Independent Study for school in the Fall. I was talking with my professor and we decided to do the class over Queen Mary I, I really enjoy the Tudor Dynasty.

    I have to pick 8 topics to write 8 papers about and put together a list of 10 books. I can start the class as soon as i have the list approved.

    So what are some good NONFICTION Books about Queen Mary I of England, also known as Mary Tudor or Bloody Mary (a name she doesn't deserve, imo)

    Thanks!

  • No Soft Spot on a 3 month old?

    My 3 month old daughter went in to see our new PA yesterday (our pediatrician moved away last month and we're waiting on the local clinic to hire a new one) for a cough and runny nose shes had for like 4 days. while examining her the PA said she didn't feel her soft spot, which is not good. B/c we will be coming back for her 4 month shots in 3 weeks she said we will wait til then to take a next step.

    Should I wait or call and make an appointment with a specialist?

    I sent a message to our old Pediatrician on Facebook to ask her advice. But it may be awhile before she returns my message, she is busy.
