No matter how many times I pass before a mirror, I still see the past image of myself before I lost weight. It seems that even though many pounds have been shed, I always feel that my body is completely disgusting. There is always...

rackback Have you tried comparing pictures of yourself "before" and "after"? Maybe that will help you change your view of yourself. I don't know if you had weight loss surgery, but ,any people who've had weight loss surgery often continue see themselves as they...

rackback I do that kind of stuff all the time. I'll walk instead of drive. or take the stairs instead of the elevator. I think it makes the mind and body stronger.

Over the past several years we have heard how Bush lied about WMD's and how the Iraq War was over oil for his "Rich Buddies" so that they could get even richer. I have just found statements that indicate why we are really...

rackback Thanks for the link. From experience, I can attest that Clinton shrank the military and simultaneously used it a lot.

I am interested in buying an acoustic guitar. I hear that Taylor and Martins are good. Are there any others that I should look into? Would eBay be a good choice to buy from or a local store like guitar center?

rackback Ebay or online is not the way to go. Taylor, Martin, Takamine, Guild, Ovation, Gibson are all well known brands. But there are countless other manufacturers that make equally great guitars for the same price. One of my favorites right now is Wechter. Not...

rackback Yeah, my rottie and staffie (Roxie and Mocha) both love the snow. The problem is they trounce so hard, they soon turn the back yard into a giant muddy slush puddle. I have to bring them in after about 20 minutes, then the back yard is off limits for a couple...

have you ever gone on a blind date? If not would you consider it? How do you feel if your married friend said she knew you were single and she wanted you to meet someone that she had in mind. Would you do it? Would you...

rackback Usually the missionary position, because I'm worried anything too exotic so soon might scare her away. Actually the only blind dates I've had were in my high school/college days. They never led to any longstanding relationships (nothing more than maybe 5...

Let's say a young teenage boy wants to get a little action and is convinced serenading young girls with a musical instrument is the key. I'm thinking guitar vs piano, with guitar having the edge because you can't drag a piano to...

Do you prefer small dogs or big dogs? I like small dogs so much, they are cute and fuzzy, instead big dogs scare me and some of them are dangerous. I'd love to have a small dog in my house but I can't :( (my house is little)

rackback There are pros and cons to the different dog sizes. big dogs take up more space, eat more food, poop more, live shorter lives, need more room. Small dogs aren't usually a good match for small kids, accidently get stepped on, bark more (my own experience)....

rackback I'd agree with the others. Playing is the best exercise for your hands. Especially if you practice the parts you're having problems with. I built up my pinky by playing some old blues and rock & roll riffs that used the pinky alot. But I don't think it was...

Why do new radio stations come into a new market and hook you by playing all this cool music, and then slowly slide into the exact boring format as all the other radio stations? Does it cost more to play good music? I could...

rackback Exactly! However, I would think it would be easier for them to continue what they were doing instead of having to recreate a boring playlist. Do you think they play boring music intentionally, and if so why?

rackback Your theory is very plausible. I too use an MP3 player, but listen to the radio in the new car to find new music. Where do you hear about new bands? I get some from word of mouth, but need the radio to keep up as well.

It seems like every game I watch, the announcers are negative toward the Seahawks. No matter how well they are playing! It really bothers me. It seems like the Seahawks can't do anything right. What does everyone think about this?...

rackback I'm sick of the announcers and sports writers, too. Sports Illustrated a couple of years ago bashed the crap out of the Seahawks, Mariners, Sonics and even Fred Couples. It was completely uncalled for. I don't have a subscription any more.
