For a statistic project I need to collect data... So out of the following characters (I know, some of the really good ones are missing!) which is your favorite?

Ash

Brock

Misty

Pikachu

Professor Oak

Jessie

James

or Meowth

I need to collect a lot more data so I can make my graph and everything!

I am in FBLA and have been well prepared for what to say in an interview, and what to wear... But my interview is with McDonald's. Should I really still wear my business clothes, or just something nice but casual? It's okay to be overdressed sometimes, but a McJob seems like something that would have completely different rules than the ones that I have been taught. I still plan to use my social skills to my best ability to gain a good advantage, but I don't want to seem like a silly teenager by overreacting and going too far over an interview for a job that many people seem to not take seriously. If anyone has any advice for what to do, like if you've gotten a job at McDonald's I would really appreciate it. :)

Also, I don't really have much time to prepare. I applied several months ago when I was ready, and somehow they still have my file and called me after all this time... Now I have until tomorrow at 4:30 to prep myself, and this is my first actual job interview, so I have no idea what to expect. (Unless it's exactly like it is in FBLA, in which case: I'm ready!)

My rats escaped from their cage earlier today while I was at school, and they chewed through a coke bottle that still had some coke at the bottom of it. I know rats aren't meant to have soda, but how dangerous is this? They seemed fine when I put them back in their cage after playing with them, but now that its bed time I think they are acting very strange. They are fighting, which is nothing like them, and one of them is very odd looking. Her fur is standing up and she's waking around all slow, and I'm so scared. I love my pet rats, and don't even know how a soda bottle got into the room they are in, since we don't eat or drink in the bedrooms... I'm just so worried, and I can't sleep until I know they are safe. I've separated them, but the one is still acting very strange and I'm so worried about her...

Can someone please tell me what to do? the vets is closed, as it's nearly 10:30, and even if I wait until tomorrow, I have a $200 trip tomorrow that I can't miss, so my parents would have to take care of it... and I'm going to be gone all weekend and... I'm seriously freaking out because I can't leave my rats when they are acting so strange, and I can't go get help for them... and... T~T

Does anyone know what I should do?

Last Friday (August 13th) I ordered a book and paid for one day shipping.

I just checked today's mail, and the package was not delivered. Does one day shipping usually take a whole week? I know that it seems impatient, but I really wanted this book to get here, and there's not much time left... At first I thought it was being affected by the weekend and not being business days and all, but now what?

Also, my mail usually arrives much sooner than it is expected, so why am I not getting this very important, extremely necessary package?

How do you get the needed codecs for windows 7?

I'm writing a story, and it is all going quite smoothly (Thanks for asking, heh) but I was editing the prologue just now and can't decide on how old the main character's younger sister should be. The sister is a fairly important character, and has to be able to contribute to the plot.. without being obviously there to progress the plot. I always think small children do this nicely, and so when she is speaking in the beginning I can't decide how to phrase the things she says.

They are simple things, but they impact the story. I taught preschoolers for awhile this year but I still don't know if they would be able to fill her part.

Please tell me how a four year-old or three year-old (If I can get away with it I will make her three, the younger the better in her circumstance) would act, and what types of things they would be able to say.
