2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture9 years ago50th Wedding Anniversary Dinner - Parents?
My parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary is in June 2012, and I don't know where to start with planning something. So, here is the background. There are 3 of us siblings, me and my 2 brothers. My parents, at this point in their life, are retired from their office jobs (ages 72 and 69) and they don't socialize too often anymore other than with 5 friends they see once a month and with only (2) living relatives which is my mom's brother and his wife. My father came down with Parkinson's Disease about 8 years ago, and now is starting to have problems walking and I will have to figure this into where we go or what we decide to do (No anniversary couples dance). So, my question is, if I decide to do a dinner (30 people) at a restaurant (which I am thinking the restaurant they had their wedding reception in 1962), what do we do the entire time? There will be no dancing, so should that mean no background music either? I was thinking of doing a video montage of photos to music of them throughout the years which could be played after the dinner, and order an anniversary cake to be delivered to the restaurant/reception hall? Any input on how to have a small 30 person "anniversary dinner" at a restaurant would be greatly appreciated. :)
4 AnswersEntertaining9 years agoFacebook and Marriages?
I am new to Facebook (only 3 weeks now) as well as my husband (of 11 years). We both created our own accounts and enjoyed getting our pages started and posting pics of our wedding and other big events during our relationship on our pages. I have 15 friends, which is mostly my famly (brothers and their wives and my closest friends).
My question is, I am starting to get a weird feeling about my husband's page. I had no problem when he started having all these "old friends" appearing as friends on his page which is now up to 50 people, but then I started seeing his former high school and college loves appearing on the page. Stil no problem. But then, what got me questioning all of this was that he lied about how they appeared on his page. He said "they sent friend requests" to him and they seeked him out. I was like, okay, no problem. But he lied to me. My laptop broke down this weekend and I used his latpto this weekend while he was at the office. When, I opened his computer, his email showed that these women "confirmed friend requests" which means he sent the request to them, not them to him? Also, I saw "messages" from Facebook from his first lover. These were "messages" sent to him, not "comments posted on his public wall." So, I read them. They seemed flirtatious. Should I be worried he is seeking out these women? I never felt the need to friend my previous boyfriends and lovers, why would he? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. :)

12 AnswersEtiquette1 decade agoRunning Asbestos Removal Company at Neighbor's Home?
Hello!
I have put a call into an Asbestos testing company, but in the meantime I thought I would see if anyone here could give me some input.
My neighbor has his own Asbestos Removal Company that he lists his home address as the business address. A few of my other neighbors who are home during the day had told me they have seen large hauling trucks back into his driveway and pick up "materials." I am wondering if this Asbestos guy is storing the Asbestos he removes from other homes at his property.
Should I be concerned since my property is right next to his? Could the Asbestos travel to surrounding homes? This is a residential area with lots of small children. I know that this guy parks his work van that he uses during the day in his driveway. Any experts on Asbestos give me some input? Thanks!

7 AnswersBeer, Wine & Spirits1 decade agoAion - Players give your Opinion?
In September right before the release of the Aion game, I was very psyched to get the game. But, then upon release, I heard many complaints regarding the servers and not being able to get on (which is common in new games like these). I am sure all of that has been fixed. But, I am wondering why I don't really hear much about this game now? I saw the graphics in video trailers I watched, and they surpassed WOW graphics. So, why aren't we hearing much about this game? Is it still that new that people don't know about it? Did the game not take off like everyone thought it would? I just visited the Aion forums and read some dissatisfaction with the PVP only gameplay and low levels constantly being ganked by groups while questing (which can be discouraging). Some even are quitting because of this reason. I am currently playing WOW and have been for a few years. I PVP only on a PVE server, but don't think I would enjoy PVP (and being ganked) while questing and doing gathering professions. I would appreciate any opinions or insight on where the game is going? Thanks!
