    delivery confirmation ??

    A call to the Postmaster could fix it. The delivery confirmation scanners that the carriers use I guess are problematic. Verizon Wireless screwed up a shipment of a phone. They wouldn't accept my PO Box, had to have my physical address. Then they sent the package by mail anyway. The...

    Barbell vs Dumbells

    What Kathryn said. It's also why you get a more balanced workout using free weights versus a machine. One arm or leg can do the work for the other on a machine. I wouldn't attempt squats with dumbells, I'd use the barbell. With my coordination I'd lose my balance and fall down. klutz!

    RE: Sleeping problems

    Kathryn, Melatonin is created during the day when your body is exposed to light, its why you feel really wiped after a day at the beach. I work nights and used to use it to trigger sleep. Sleeping in a bright room however may confuse the body in calculating a "zero light" condition and thus...

    Save for a rainy day, or live like there's no tomorrow?

    Jerry, My family consists of my wife (28 yrs July 12!) and two 20 year olds, one of whom I'll have to provide for after I'm "in the box" (he's autistic). We save, we both work and we are comfortable. There haven't been many elaborate vacations but we'll order out dinner in a pinch...

    Scary information about the workplace...

    Right to work means it isn't a closed shop. In other words you don't have to belong to a union. Actually you can get laid off, fired easier than the union employee as the union employee will have a recourse through the grievance procedure if it's a wrongful dismissal. I was a negotiating...

    Need advice on resumes

    A rule of thumb I always follow is to pick up the latest of Bolles' "What Color is Your Parachute". It is printed every year or two and keeps up with the latest trends in HR. Dave

    Flying phobia

    I don't have anxiety about flying, I just hate to fly. The service, the delays, the airlines, they all S**K! They lie to you. They cram you into a small space, getting smaller all the time. The security is a joke. I have a titanium hip, one airport I practically have to have a strip...

    What are you doing to help save on gasoline?????

    I've cut my speed and use the cruise control where I can safely. We menu plan now, less grocery store trips. When the kids have their activities we do errands so that were not just making double round trips. During the better weather I'll be riding my bike to work, combining my cardio...

    Clinton or Obama

    SirenSong, The draft might actually do more good than harm. The war would suddenly become the front burner and the heat would be on our politicians to end it if there was a draft or if they were even thinking about it. Of course we shouldn't allow deferments for politicians kids, If the...

    Clinton or Obama

    I'm going to try to be politically neutral. In some issues I am a conservative, in others a liberal. I am usually respectful to opinions of people that are tolerant of others. In my lifetime I have voted for Reagan (twice), Dukakis, Clinton, Gore, Kerry. I guess I haven't been too...

    Please Help Me :(

    Sorry I'm late on this. I have never cheated on my wife, I know some real rats though. Did he come clean on his own? If he came clean on his own then he probably is being truly remorseful. If he came clean on discovery or fear of discovery of his actions then you really have to weigh the...
