matty..

This is for a non-government job, but a large private company. The GED test has been taken, but the results aren't back yet. Do you think they verify whether or not you passed?

Most camping food that I have ever had involves a lot of meat. Can anyone give me some good ideas of food to make while camping that doesn't revolve around meat?

Thank you :)

I've seen a website that has really cute girl's t-shirts that have offensive sayings on them - but you can't really tell. It's written all fancy and small on the sleeve or someplace but it says things like "F*%@ off", etc. I think they have butterflies and flowers and stuff on them. Anyone know what the heck I am talking about? I've googled with no success! Thanks :)

I have seen it in malls and such - it's like a powered substance that you can add water to and it makes snow. You can dry it out and use it again. Does anyone know what it's called? I tried googling and can't find it. Thank you!

Besides butter, mayo, aioli... what do you dip your artichokes in!? :)

I am unable to view some websites. For instance - www.spiketv.com - I don't get an error message, just a black screen and it says 'done' on my bottom toolbar, like it should be loaded - but nothing is there.

I am also unable to view videos on some sites (CMT Loaded and any video on the Yahoo main page). It says 'now playing', but nothing is happening. I can view videos on some sites - youtube for example.

I made sure I have the most recent versions of flash, media player, etc. Is there something I have set wrong? Any suggestions for me to try?

Thanks so much. :)

I have all the latest versions of Flash, Windows Media Player, etc, (as their technical support site suggests), but the videos won't play. It says 'now playing' but nothing happens- I don't even get sound and the counter stays at 00:00. Any suggestions?

I can play videos from all other sites - youtube, google videos, etc., without any problems.

Thanks :)

I made whole wheat apple muffins last night and one of the ingredients was chopped apple. It was a red apple -Fuji, I think, and I left the skin on. This morning all the apple chunks (that had peels) in the muffins are green!? Not like apple green- but dark, strange forest green. I've never had this happen before. Can anyone tell me why? Thank you :)

I am getting into the hobby of making clothes for myself. Are there any websites that you can suggest to get some cute patterns (I'm willing to buy them- not looking for free patterns necessarily)? I live in a rural area, so web purchases are pretty much my only option. I have looked at Simplicity, McCalls, Butterick, etc, but I was wondering if there are other places I should look. Thanks! :)

I have a persimmon cookie recipe that calls for pulp, but I don't know how to get it. :)

I had an adjustment today and now I'm noticing he kinked the wire in four different places. What is the purpose of this?

I am making a handbag and used fusible interfacing on the backside of the fabric. When I ironed it on it got kind of wrinkly. Not too bad- but it bothers me. Is there a way to fix this? Can I iron it again? And what caused it to wrinkle? Did I use too hot of an iron setting? I would like to fix the bag I have and prevent it from happening next time. Thanks for your help! :)

I am planning a small get together in a couple of weeks. I would like to do fall-themed appetizers. I will be having mulled wine, cider, and pumpkin bars - but I need to round out the menu with a few appetizers. It will be a short evening party. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you! :)

It's a movie I saw 7 or 8 years ago - one of those cheesy slasher movies.

Ok, this is vague and sounds strange, but here goes:

I can only really remember one scene - there are a bunch of people buried in the ground just up to their necks. All their heads are sticking out above the ground. I believe they are all still alive. The scene is at night and I think they are buried out on a ranch (or some other remote location).

I know...not much to go on, but it's all I've got. thanks :)

I posted a few weeks ago, and still haven't found the song I am looking for. I thought it was called Welcome Home, but that doesn't seem to turn anything up in my searches. The song is about a soldier on a plane coming home. He is sitting next to a Vietnam vet. The vet is telling him how people treated him badly when he returned home from the war.

When they get off the plane there are a bunch of people waiting to greet the young soldier. He turns to the vet and salutes him and thanks him for his service. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Am I just losing my mind? :) I'm sorry I can't remember any specific lyrics. :(

It's not the Mike Hammock song.

I cooked a bag of pink beans in the crockpot all night to make chili. I only used about half of them. Any ideas what I can do with the rest? Something that freezes well would be great! Thank you! :)

Can anyone tell me how to use the lap timer on a 2006 Yamaha R6? My owner's manual has gone missing and my dealer is closed today. Thanks much!

I know I posted this earlier, but I didn't get any responses so I am trying again. Please forgive the double posting. :)

What should I do with my lawn in the fall? Is there a good winterizing fertilizer I should use? Thank you! :)

I am getting braces so I want to not drink anything that is going to stain my teeth. I am a big tea drinker and was wondering how much green tea stains teeth.

Alright, I'm getting braces the day before I turn 30 (in two weeks)... I went to the ortho's office for my records appointment and I was the oldest patient there by about 2 decades! Ugh, did I feel old or what...

Anyway - adults out there with braces - how do you feel about them? Love them (haha ..i know)? Hate them? Totally traumatized?! Can I really not drink carbonated beverages!?! :) Thank you.
