My wife and I co-signed for my brother-in-law and he has messed up our credit. My wife has one report under her credit and I have several. Is there anyway to clear this up other than wait 7 years? can lawyers help? if so, how much do they usually charge for something like this?

Or can I do it myself by just writing it on a piece of paper, signing and notarizing it?

I have a masters degree in computer and information sciences but as I am in my 40s I have been thinking about moving to IT management. I am looking into starting a degree program in this field. Any advice? are they worth it? any good online universities out there you recommend and which ones to aovid?

Thanks for your help.

Instead of all the expenses going to cops trying to check speed limits, traffic tickets, court costs for speeding, speed related traffic accidents, and billions of dollars spent on this cat and mouse game, why not pass laws forbidding the auto industry to build cars that exceed certain speed limits? This is very possible What's your take on this?

I had a discussion with a Dutch friend of mine today as to the origins of chess. He is ademant that a German guy invented it about 400 years ago. In Iran we have 1500 year old poetry that mentions the game of chess. I was always under the impression that it came from India or Iran and it's mentioned on Wikepedia also.

Anyone have more info?

Can anyone add categories to Yahoo Answers? or do the web admins take care of that?

I mean this is Yahoo! answers. It's a cheap way of getting answers and others' experiences and opinions. Why is it that some people find it necessary to respond to a question they have no answer to by typing: "Get Counseling" ? duh! everyone knows they can do that. It just costs a bit more.

A letter that normally costs 37 cents to send inside the U.S., if sent to Canada, will it cost more because it's international?

Why don't animals get skin cancer? They have no clothes on to protect them from radiation. Is their fur protecting them?

Lately I have started to think that millions of years ago mankind did not have problems with radiation from the Sun but as we started wearing clothes to protect us from the cold, we lost the body hair and an eventually our immunity to the radiation was reduced to a point where we are now very vulnerable. Clothes are as unnatural as artificial sugar.

Incidentally, darker people in Africa have less cases of skin cancer and I attribute that to the fact that they have been wearing less clothing than the rest of the world population and their immunity has not been been affected as much, at least so far.

Any thoughts?

I travel to the other side of the world

on land, on water, on foot

my joints rusty and my hands are cold.

News of my father who is no more

runs through the boundaries of my conscious,

numbs my mind and makes me fold.

He asked for me from his hospital bed, I was told.

Long ago on a rainy day he held my hand as we walked:

on land, on water, on foot.

He pulled me left, he pulled me right.

He pulled me away from the mud,

for my new shoes had to stay nice and bright.

Now I travel to the other side of the world

my joints rusty and my hands are cold

as they carry the man,

turning left and turning right.

on a rainy day.

I cry a bit, I cry alot.

I leave my father there, under the mud.

Lots of games are decided by penalty kicks and at times it does not seem fair. The goalkeeper is most certainly at a disadvantage. The problem is that the ball is too close to the game. I think there should be two separate penalty kick spots. One like there is now. But this one is only used for penalty kicks during the course of the game. There should be an additional penalty kick spot for tie-breaker penalty kicks. This spot should be right behind the box not inside. That way only great shooters can score. The way it is right now, the most tricky and many lucky shooters score. Let me know what you think.

Arent' good people in a way trying to cheat God by pretending they are good while bad people are just themselves? Shouldn't God punish good people for trying to cheat him? Serious responses only please.

Is it normal that my 2-1/2 year old daughter only eats pasta with no sauce? we have tried every which way to have her like other food. She sometimes does because we keep asking her to but then she goes back to Pasta with No sauce!

Is there anyway to make her like other food? or will she eventually snap out of it?

Thanks for your help.

I have noticed strange behavior on my personal computer and I am wondering if I can check to see if anyone got access to my personal info on my computer. I do have a firewall and I am behind a router.

I subscribe to warner cable and If I post something on a website, and they trace my IP, how much personal info about me can they get? Or can they even get personal info?

Thanks for your help.

In the United States you are not legally mature enough to drink alcoholic beverages until you are 21 years old but you are legally mature enough to carry weapons and drive tanks in foreign countries when you are 18. Why?

Many of my readers ask me to put my child's picture on my weblog sine I write so much about her but I am a bit hesitant because of all the foul-play on the internet. Is there a downside to this?
