2 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoShould I buy a new car because for some reason the cops seem to love me lately?
Do they get paid for each ticket they write? If so are they in need of money to pay their taxes? I never have problems with cops but the last two weeks it seems they have been seriously searching for reasons to stop me. I am not ever in trouble! So this is getting really irritating... Did they hire like a hundred more cops per small town as well because they have either been running around holding hands are there are so many you can't get away form them, every time I see one there seems to be at least 3..
Sorry for all you good cops out there I do not really mean to offend but seriously what is the deal with this?

3 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks1 decade agoMother is driving me crazy.. Help?
My mother has been taking medicines that make her loopy for to many years and once again she is getting off of them. When she is on these medicines she is so out of it she burns herself and doesn't know it. Wen she is getting off of them she is not nice. I go visit them every other weekend, almost. When I have other things that need to be done then I stay home. I have been in my house for over 8 years and my parents come by maybe twice a year(that's if we're lucky), my brother and his family have been here 3 times, my other brother and his family have been here maybe 5 times, my MIL has been here 2 times, my step MIL has been here 1 time, my FIL has been here 2 times, and my step FIL had never been here, my hubbies sister has been here once. They all think that since we are the ones who moved that we should have to come see them. When they visit my house I always have things in the fridge to share ,there's always pops for the kids, and toys for the kids to play with, I cook them

1 AnswerOther - United States1 decade agoMy daughter was playing and hurt her foot and now has a blood blister?
My kids were playing Monday evening and my littlest one was laying in the floor and my son went to tickle her and she kicked the TV. Now she has a blood blister and the bottom of her foot and it's a little bigger than a pencil eraser. I carried her to the doctor because it was hurting and she told me to keep an eye on but not to worry about it unless it gets infected. That was yesterday morning. My daughter woke up all night last night with it hurting, I am giving her tylenol and motrin. Yesterday she kept picking at it and some of the stuff came out,the doctor said that should relieve pressure if we could pop it, we can not do that to her. She will forget about it and step on it then start screaming. What in the world can I do to help her? I can't give her any more medicine, she is only 2 years and 10 months.
3 AnswersInjuries1 decade agowhat would you do if your sister n law was hateful?
I live a little ove an hour from my family, for good reason. I have two brothers. One lives next to my mom and the other lives with my mom. I am the youngest and am 28. So you know they are old enough to be some what responsible. The brother living with my mom has 4 kids and his wife as well. His wife is not nice, if I weren't on yahoo I would use a few words that would describe her more acurately. For starters they live with my parents and they have both worked up until she had her last kid, about 7 months ago. She is the type that ask people for everything but only wants what is best. So if you have alot of nice clothes and she wants them she will ask for them bu then trash everything but the name brand. One of her kids is dressed very nice, not one thing the kid owns is cheap(all given to her). The other kids are dressed in clothing that is ready for the trash can, the clothes are nasty, stained, with holes. She doesn't seem to care. She is also dressed in name brand, she has

2 AnswersAmusement Parks1 decade agoI have a serious issue with losing my vision, numbess, sometimes cold sweats?
I have had this problem since the end of my pregnancy with my son who born in Nov. 1996. It started out only once in a while. Then it got worse as time went by. At first i would just be walking through the store or whatever and suddenly I would start getting this horrible feeling(cold sweats, and just feel horrible), then I would pass out for a few seconds. I had heart monitors on and scans, you name it. Then as years went by it started getting worse and more often. I sometimes get cold sweats, dizzy, sometimes it hits so fast my stomach drops and gets very sick,numbness in my face, most times my knees go week and always I lose my vision(it closes in from the outside in to where I can't see anything), sometimes my hearing goes with the vision, and sometimes if it is very bad i will panic. I know alot of people will say go to the doctor but that's just it I have gone to alot of them near and far. I have had a Catscan at the ER and they said it showed that I had a seizure but I was test
3 AnswersOther - Diseases1 decade agoIs Hilary or Obama? Please just give a reliable answer?
I have read alot about the candidates and I am getting different views. Maybe some are wanting things to look worse than they are. Is Hilary for partial abortions? To what extent? I know that has been asked. Now what about Obama? This is the part I haven't gotten a positive answer on. Are either of them for the taxpayers paying for these? I have read that Obama wants some of the money from taxes to go to paying for them. That would make them both very stupid in mmy eyes. I do not like McCain at all, I would just about rather cut my fingers off than to vote for him but if the above is true then there is no way I could vote for the other 2. At least McCain has some morals. I try to follow all of these things but once in a while I just get tires of the bad news and don't turn on the tv and I skip any bad talk. I wish there were more positive things to talk about. Sorry if I offend anybody with my question or ask something that people hate to hear twice.

5 AnswersCredit1 decade agoWhat would you women do?
My husband is honest with me as far as I know.. We have been married 12 years and he tells me alot. At work there is a woman that went up to a married man and let him know that she knew he is married but told him she wanted to play around with him on the side. Is this not wrong? The guy doesn't want to report her but I think she should be reported. My husband reported a woman once because she hit on him over the phone and she was fired because of the inappropriate behavior.What would you do being the guy isn't your husband but your husband works there?
34 AnswersMarriage & Divorce1 decade agoI ordered online from Zales and cannot get a single person that has the authority to help me. What now?
I ordered my husbands anniversary gift from Zale's and have been getting nothing but the run around from them, I ordered on the 13th or 14th. They sent an e-mail saying the item was delivered with my daughters item but it wasn't so after 15 e-mails with no response I find a number to call and the lady says she has no idea what happened but she will look into it which could be two weeks. So I tell her to cancel the order and give me my money back so I can go buy him a gift and she says she can't do that but she will put in the request. Then after waiting I call back again and talk to somebody and they tell me no I cannot cancel my order but they did find out that it was never sent and has not even reached their plant yet so I still can't get it. I tell them my anniversary is Sunday I need the ring or the money. Sorry we can't authorize that but my manager will be here Monday if you want to call back. So I have been trying to get my money or the ring since the 18th with no luck.

5 AnswersToys1 decade agoCan anybody tell me what is wrong with my computer?
When I am online my browser stops responding,it shuts off by itself with a full battery and sometimes when I try to restart it it will just keep shutting off before it completely restarts, When I delete a file it erases it but does not erase the file info(it shows to be there or the icon will not delete but the file is gone). My computer is only 2 months old and I scan it on a regular basis(every week),I keep the files deleted out and clean.Everytime I do run a scan it says everything is clean. I have used more than one type of scan. I also have a bunch of old files on here that either say empty folder or that I do not have the program to run it. I talked to an HP person and they said it sounded like I have an old hard drive instead of new, they overnighted me a drive and I installed it last night but as soon as I connected online the browser stopped working. Now I don't know what to do. They say they will fix it but I wonder if it is hopeless.Any ideas?

I bought an HP laptop, thought I was getting a good PC, come to find out they now think I bought a new computer with a used hard drive,currupted system that somebody set up wrong.But the thing is I didn't know this until now 2 months after I bought it.

They said they would do what ever they have to in order to make this right but I don't know alot about this.

I love chocolate gravy but my family has always made it and when you ask for a recipe, nobody has it written down and they say something like a handful of cocoa, between a half and 3 quarters cup butter,etc. Kind of makes it hard to get it to turn out right.
5 AnswersCooking & Recipes1 decade agoAny idea why a person might lose vision for a few minutes?
I ask this because when I had my son over 11 years ago I took a glucose test and when I got to the doctor I passed out. things went well for a while then I started to do this more often and they got worse over the years. Sometimes I break out in cold sweats, my hearing is like I'm in a tunnel, My body goes numb to where I can't stand, then my vision started to fade from the outside in to where I cannot see, sometimes I pass out. My face goes pale and my pupils dilate as well. It comes and goes. Sometimes I will not have a problem for months and soemtimes I have them all day long one after another. I have been to every kind of doctor you can imagine and lots of each. If anyone can tell me any ideas I would be greatful.
