I have the same issue. Also have checked fuses. I have one bit of added information. A few weeks ago i started it and the lights and gauges were kicking on and off intermittenly as it ran. I shut it off thinking that it was just a result of sitting around all summer. When I started it recently the issue was permanent.

  • Looking at buying a used Ski-doo. What's the right size for my weight?

    Looking at buying a used Ski-doo. I'm about 185 pounds and looking at a 92 Skandic 377. Too small for me? Here's the link:

    Thanks.Looking at buying a used Ski-doo. What's the right size for my weight?
    No, this isn't too small for you. It will not be a fast sled however. With the long track and the small motor this will top out around 55mph. Max... I'd prefer at least the 500 fan cooled myself. My current Ski Doo has the 583 liquid and gets moving much faster.

    The 92 body style has a reputation for being poor in deep snow. In '95 the Skandic switched to a newer and better body style.

    377cc fan: around 40 hp

    500cc fan: 56 hp

    583cc liquid: 103 hpLooking at buying a used Ski-doo. What's the right size for my weight?

    Whats a higher quality jet ski- Sea-doo or honda?

    My family is looking into a new jet ski, and we were wanting to know- whats a higher QUALITY jet ski, sea-doo or honda? we don't want to spend to much time in the shop. thx alot in advance!Whats a higher quality jet ski- Sea-doo or honda?
    seadoo, u can beat a honda motor by the way, they actually arent very good at all.
    The quality of the machine is largely dictated on how YOU handle it. Honda is a great machine, but Sea-Doo (Bombardier) has been around forever. In fact, they were the first to produce the Ski-Doo machines years before entering the Sea-Doo market with a proven track record.



    Warranties are important. Look at what the warranty covers, the length and how often you will use the machine. Is an extended warranty available at a reasonable cost? If it's a factory extended warranty and you plan to use the machine alot, it may be a good investment. Just remember, accidents and abuse are not covered.



    Whichever you choose, be safe, wear your PFD and have fun.Whats a higher quality jet ski- Sea-doo or honda?
    The Honda is defenitely better quality. But the SeaDoo is sportier and has more features. It all depends on how you plan to use it and how long you plan to keep it when deciding which is better. But I think the Honda is a better value.
    sea-doo is a better jet ski as a whole. But you can not beat a Honda motor.Whats a higher quality jet ski- Sea-doo or honda?
    Seadoo is most certainly a higher quality jet ski than honda.

  • Is $4500 worth it for a 2004 Ski-Doo MX Zx 440 rev racing sled?

    Found a sled private sale haven't checked it out yet but looks looks really nice.Is $4500 worth it for a 2004 Ski-Doo MX Zx 440 rev racing sled?
    What a rip off, don't do it save your money, keep lookingIs $4500 worth it for a 2004 Ski-Doo MX Zx 440 rev racing sled?
    First of all I think the last year the MX Zx 440 was made as 2003, but I could be mistaken. Anyways I would say that the price is a little bit high, but I'm sure they would be willing to come down with negotiations! Off the top of my head I would value it at 3500-4000, but that all depends on the condition and wear and tear.

    I have a 1980 ski doo blizzard it has good spark but when primed it starts and burns off the primer fuel?

    What is the proper fuel mixture for a 1968 ski doo suoer olympique?

    I think most snowmobiles are 20:1. The oldest sled I ever messed with was a 1974 Scorpion Super Stinger II.



    Go get a bottle of 2-cycle snowmobile oil, and it should say on it what ratio to mix it.



    Between us and our neighbors, we must have had 30 sleds, so we mixed a lot of fuel. I just wished we were still able to ride like we did back in the late 70's early 80's....at least 4" of snow every time it snowed, 15' tall drifts......40 below zero temps.....wooooHooo!!!What is the proper fuel mixture for a 1968 ski doo suoer olympique?
    As far as I know, the mix should be at the most 32:1, but for the most part 40:1 or 50:1. I've run my elans, olympic, nordic, and any other early 70's ski doo as 50:1, which is what the dealer recommended. The really old ski doos (like, early / mid 60's) are 32:1

Just remember most guys like attention and if you at least seem interested in his stuff he shouldn't care, and if you really are interested in it great but if not and just saying a bunch of fake crap to get him to like you and then turn on him once you're together and not seem interested he's going to find you out.

  • What program should i take so that i can work on ski-doo's?

    i want to become a man who designs new snowmobiles or four-wheelers and like design the parts in the suspension or engine likei originaly thought i would go into mechanical engineering...but that seams to be more like giant machines like in factories and stuff.. or can i use that too branch off. im willing to be in school for a long time. just don't want to waste too much of it.What program should i take so that i can work on ski-doo's?
    You could look into automotive engineering technology programs, such as at Ferris State University in Michigan; such programs provide a broad-based engineering program geared towards fixing designing and troubleshooting vehicles; one could pretty easily extrapolate the skills learned fixing larger things like cars, to smaller things like snowmobiles and 4-wheelers. There is a required internship for one semester as a senior, and you could arrange to do it at a place which designs/troubleshoots/engineers snowmobiles or 4-wheelers to fulfill that requirement. Students do this internship at a variety of places, from Detroit to with Honda in California, depending on their preferences and job goals. Plus, you would have a 4 year university degree to fall back on, which would enable you do do any of a number of different things, in case your first career doesn't work out. Look into it!What program should i take so that i can work on ski-doo's?

    1968 ski-doo super olympiqueWhere do i find a carb for a 1968 ski-doo snowmobile?
    Try a junk pile, but Tillotston carbs and the similar diaphragm type carbs are not ideal. You'll be having to replace the diaphragm often, and when the fuel mixture goes lean as it's stops supplying enough fuel, you'll destroy your motor (bearing will go dry and you could melt your piston(s)).



    You're best off upgrading to a Mikuni carb (slide type and float bowl) and use an external fuel pump. Far more reliable for old sleds.

    1997 ski doo formula z If i do not throttle it immediatlly after the first pull it floods out ?

    i was told that it might be the crankcase seal but im not sure. I checked and it does have spark1997 ski doo formula z If i do not throttle it immediatlly after the first pull it floods out ?
    The needle valve in the carburetor is allowing gas to seep into the crank case while it's just sitting there and as soon as you pull the start cord, all the gas gets sucked into the piston/cylinder.



    You need to have your carburetor rebuilt.1997 ski doo formula z If i do not throttle it immediatlly after the first pull it floods out ?
    hi there,,, Mr Knowitall is correct. you need to rebuild your carb.

    Whats happening is the float is stiking down thus allowing the float bowl to flood... Its an easy job. Go to the local boat store and get a carb rebuild kit. You will get the needle and all the gaskets for the carb.

    You take it off carefully take it apart... clean the bowl, the jets ( the needles with carb cleaner. Check the float to make sure it isnt gas logged .. that is full of gasoline so it wont float. then check the needle. which is held in by the float. suirt carb cleaner through all the needle seats and then if you can clean with compressed air... ( one of those used to clean a computer will do. then reassemble and put it back on the engine make sure you have replaced the gaskets with the ones that come with the carb kit... You can leave it to soak over night in the carb cleaner if you want to before you put it back together and back on...

    you will have to reset the needles to get it to idle but its not difficult.. buy the workshop manual for your motor and you will find it a breeze...

    If you want to tru a quick fix that might work... squirt WD40 into the carb start the motor and see if that works... also .. take off the fuel line and squirt wd40 into the carb that way....

    You could squirt carb cleaner into the carb before you take it off and run to see if it removes the needle blockage. Some mechanics dont recomend this as the carb cleaner will strip the oil off the cylinder walls.

    I have done this but befor i started the engine I quirted premix into the cylinders and into the carb too.

    Good luck...

  • Are you tired of listening to people talk on their cell phones in public?

    I went to the bank today. A rude 20's something valley girl cut in front of me in line. She was chatting loudly on her cell phone. I told her, excuse me, but there is a line here. She responded, well, you were just standing there off to the side... I said, well, if you weren't on your cell phone, you might be paying more attention. Then it was a verbal war. The 50's something vs the 20's something. She then proceeded to give her complete credit card number loudly over the cell phone to a merchant she was talking to. I then said in a loud voice...hey did you hear that...she's giving us all her credit card information! I told her she was an idiot and finished my banking. Why do people on cell phones think the public cares to listen to their affairs of what they are having for dinner, who's picking up the kids, who sleeping with who, and hello...can you hear me...hello?Are you tired of listening to people talk on their cell phones in public?
    don't even get me started!

    I had similar situations, there is this idiot at work that doesn't know the meaning of ETIQUETTE, the guy has no manners

    and is SO rude because he's on the phone 24/7 in public, in restaurants, while driving with a carpool, and the sad part is

    everybody has to listen his LAME and STUPID conversations, just makes feel repulsive, everybody at work is so sick of him.
    Not so much as tired but people should learn proper cell phone etiquette. Me, personally, I do not use my phone while on a crowded elevator and I try not to talk long if I am in a store or on line to pay for something. I am a private person so I like my conversations to be between the person I am on the phone with and myself. If people practice common courtesy, they would see the error they make when using their cell phones.Are you tired of listening to people talk on their cell phones in public?
    Yeah, this bugged the hell out of me...5 YEARS AGO. Have you been living in a cave?



    Seriously, its just become background noise to me. Its like being at a ball game or standing near a busy intersection. Its just 'noise' in the background.
    Lol I think it's funny! And plus I like to know what they are talking about.Are you tired of listening to people talk on their cell phones in public?
    Yes. That's why my ipod is my best friend.
    If I ever talk on my phone in public, I try to talk quietly so that nobody hears me, lol. What I can't stand is people who talk on their phones while they're checking out at the grocery store or wherever else they are buying something. It's rude and they completely ignore the cashier. If my phone rings, I just don't answer it until I'm out of the store. If I happen to be on the phone while approaching the register, I'll tell the person I gotta go. It's all just common sense, but it's not so common. And I'm 24, but I always remember my dad talking about common sense and knowing how and when to use it. Common sense, common courtesy, etc. Some people just don't have it.
    I feel like there are certain places that you should quiet down, see my problem is I'm a loud person by nature, but I think that stems from coming from a large family being the only girl and always having to shout in order for anyone to hear me. But again if I am in a bank, at the gym, on the bus or jsut in an enclosed area I don't use my cellphone. Some people are jsut rude, I'm from NYC so trust me I totally get what you're saying.
    I agree with you totally. I loath cell phone users in public. I work in a public library and we have cell phone users ALL the time. We (meaning, me) used to ask the 'offenders' to take their calls to the library lobby. However, the acoustics in the library are worse than any place in the library. Now, we ask them to speak quietly. Lately, I haven't had to ask people to lower their voices.



    The girl who cut you off was rude. If her call is so important, then, she should have completed it before she got in line. Also, she's stupid-- giving her credit card number in public. What an idiot!



    Like you, I don't care to listen to other people's conversations- especially in public. I miss the days when there weren't cell phones. Phone calls were made at home in privacy.



    Times, they are a changing, and sometimes, not for good.



    Hang in there.

    Is there a word for this type of literary device?

    In writing, the author may evoke sensory images (i.e., allude to one of the five senses) BUT instead of categorizing it as what it would usually be, he uses a different sense to describe it?



    For example: "my eyes feel tired" instead of what one would usually associate with eyes, i.e., "sight" like "my eyes see you"



    or if one were to be more poetic -- "my eye shall be the stream and watery deathbed for him" (from Merchant of Venice) which evokes FEELING and maybe even SOUND.



    I know there is a word for this in Japanese, but I can't recall it for the life of me. Does English have such a term?Is there a word for this type of literary device?
    Those are just metaphors, that's all (see link, below).



    Good luck!... ?

  • What's a good name for this? Please read, it's not long I swear!!?

    I just finished writing my one-shot fan fiction on Leon and Ashley from Resident Evil 4 but I have no idea what to title it. Can you read it and tell me what you think? It's not that long. And if you haven't played this game before, please don't ask what it's about... it's VERY hard to explain and I'm running out of 'characters' Okay so please read it and let me know what you think I should name this!



    Ashley and Leon ran for their lives down a hallway that never seemed to end. The frightening voices of several monks could be heard behind them.



    “Quick, Ashley! In there!” Leon shouted, as he spotted an unpromising door.



    Desperate for anyway to escape, Ashley quickly obliged and ran into the lightless room after Leon.



    “Thanks goodness,” Ashley said after helping Leon board up the door. “I thought we would never escape.”



    “Well, we’re not quite there yet.” He was out of breath. It’s not easy constantly running from people –are they even considered people?- who are striven to kill you. Leon had run out of ammo about an hour ago and was forced to use only his knife. Where was that creepy, yet surprisingly helpful, merchant when you needed him?



    Ashley sat quietly thinking to herself. She couldn’t help but think that she was nothing but a bother to Leon. This whole time he had been shooting zombie’s heads off trying to save their lives, while she just stood around acting helpless. He never spoke to her unless he was telling her to stay where she was while he ran off and did something productive, and when he did, he sounded annoyed or mad at her. Maybe it was just the stress getting to her head, but she actually believed that Leon only thought of her as a hindrance.



    “Leon… Wh... Why do you hate me?” Ashley asked quietly, unsure if Leon had heard her. Actually, she wasn’t even sure if she had heard herself.



    Leon was taken aback by her words. At first he wasn’t sure he’d heard her correctly, because she had spoken so quietly, but once he had finally registered what she was asking he didn’t know how to respond.



    “What do you mean? I don’t hate you.” He answered, trying his best not to sound as confused as he actually was.



    “Yes you do…” She said, not looking at him, afraid he would see her tears. “This whole time I have been nothing but a burden to you. I keep getting captured by these… things and you have to come rescue me over and over again. I’m slowing us down and you know it. So, I would completely understand if you left me here…” She didn’t have enough energy to wipe her tears; they had been running all day and only stopped to eat food once.



    Leon’s heart wrenched as he looked at her bowed head, her streaming tears and trembling shoulders. He walked over to where she was sitting and knelt down in front of her. “Ashley, look at me.” When she didn’t he gently cupped her chin, tilting her head up. When her gaze met his he noticed the tears on her cheeks and wiped them away with his thumb. “Ashley, I don’t hate you, okay? Nothing on this planet could ever make me hate you. It’s not your fault they keep coming after you, they’ve been infected. The parasite is controlling their bodies and making them chase us. And even if you did give in and let them carry you away, I wouldn’t hate you for it. You’re tired, we both are. Do you know how many times I’ve wanted to just say ‘screw it’ and give up?” She shook her head. “Well a lot. But you wanna know why I didn’t? Because I knew I had to get you home safe. And I’m not giving up until we’re both home, where we belong.”



    “You’re just saying that because it’s your job. You only came because my father paid you.” She looked away from him again.



    “Well, at first, yes.” He said honestly. “But then I met you and it became much more than that.”



    She looked up at him in pure astonishment. Had he really meant what he said? They kept looking at each other, neither one of them dropping their gaze. Slowly she looked down at his lips: they were dry, cracked, and yet still so inviting. She absentmindedly licked her lips while starting at his, this going unnoticed by the attractive man next to her. He grinned at this before slowly leaning towards Ashley, whose heart was pounding. Leon slightly parted his lips while slowly moving his hand behind her neck. Just as their lips were about to meet, they heard eerie chanting coming from outside of the room.



    Oh come on! Ashley thought as they were so rudely interrupted.



    Leon sighed, standing up. He offered his gloved hand to the girl sitting in front of him and she gratefully accepted it. He pulled her to her feet and she took her usual stance behind him, readying herself for the zealots they were about to encounter.



    With one last look behind him, he smiled at her, flashing a mouthful of perfectly straight, pearly white teeth. She could’ve been wrong, but she was almost positive that was the first time she’d seen him smile like that.



    So... what do you think?What's a good name for this? Please read, it's not long I swear!!?
    "Please read, it's not long I swear!!?" PFFFFFFFT -.- MAY THE LORD HAVE MERCY ON YOU.What's a good name for this? Please read, it's not long I swear!!?
    Sinner! It's too long!!

    Now, I write. Random stuff.

    Care to tell me what you think bout it?

    The link below is a link to my Notes on facebook, that's where I usually post the scraps.



    http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?id=523鈥?/a>



    If you haven't got facebook, here's a sample of the notes:



    Eternal Genesis



    A dying sun burns away

    As the wind blows astray



    Carrying a fulfilling loneliness,

    The higher being's companion

    Who seeks redemption

    Finding nothing save everlasting emptiness



    Shadowed by a darkness eternal

    Plaguing the cursed immortal



    Upon this hill

    Overlooking their graves

    The air above their tombstones so still

    One of immortality's slaves



    Evil sheathed in these veins

    Bound by immortality's chains

    Blood that simply won't clot

    Flesh and bones which rot not



    A wish left unfulfilled:

    For the freedom I seeketh

    Lies in naught but death



    ====================================



    Echo



    Treading down this soggy lane

    Pins and needles prodding his foggy brain

    This is not just another nightmare

    For this is where he was stripped bare



    Missing links in the memories flooding

    The photographic kaleidoscope keeps on playing

    Stringing together the hazy stills

    Amnesia or side-effects of those pills?



    Groggy, he walks with that swagger

    Longing to steady for a breather

    A chill creeping down his spine

    Ruling the land of the blind



    This strange voice in his head

    Different from the usual threat

    This looming menace aiming for the zenith

    Tormenting the dormant that crawl beneath



    This is a fragment of his visions,

    His hallucinations, his schizophrenic conversations



    ====================================



    Requiem



    In matters of the heart I indulge not,

    For mine was crushed and left to rot



    By a Maiden who I admire

    By that Lady who left me sinking in this quagmire



    I cursed myself for loving her

    My nemesis, the heart-slayer



    Now, slumped in a corner

    I'm awaiting the reaper



    My wrists slashed, my limp body

    I'm itching to cease to be



    Noticing my reflection in the window pane

    Seeing my face was blue



    Like the blood running down the drain,

    I was finally through!



    ================================



    Al Capone's lullaby



    You can be the love of a punk

    You, my little skunk

    You're synonymous to my subutex

    The haze at the apex

    The ecstasy during sex



    You've been my valium

    That substitute of the pauper's rum

    I'll keep on consuming you

    Till your senses are so blurred

    That your words get slurred



    You're the neighbour's poppy seed

    The ***** of no breed

    Morphing you to cocaine and heroin

    You'll satisfy my cravin'



    I am what morphine is to pain

    The endorphine injected in your brain

    These hands, white with opium

    The song of death, I hum



    I am the merchant of pleasure

    And you'll need me forever

    For I possess all that you treasure



    ===============================



    Lost %26amp; Found



    I believed I had a heart

    Before we grew apart



    It then felt like an aneurysm

    With some unexplainable mechanism



    Denying that I was forsaken

    Not understanding that I was broken

    I just went on

    Not realising I couldn't hold on



    My feelings gone rancid

    My veins, a haven for acid



    In my chest, shadows feast

    Scary thoughts, dreamless sleep

    Left in a forest so deep,

    How can anyone not turn in a beast?



    And so, I believe I no longer have a heart

    Beneath my ribs, demons lurk



    The aneurysm did its work

    I am now a piece of art...



    ======================



    Ascension



    It's been so long

    Covering these miles of deserted plains

    Alone all along

    Failing over and over again

    To find someone to whom she'd belong

    Wishing she could break free from sanity

    Wanting to flee from this anomaly

    Coz the other side is more tempting than this reality



    She's still walking that desolate road

    Her soles have run thin

    Her feet tired from bleedin'

    Ridding herself of that needless load

    Feelings and strings in Life's bin

    She's slipping away from sanity

    Coz the other side is better than this reality

    Yeah, she is breaking free



    She is finally conversing with nature

    Experiencing happiness and pleasure

    This utopia is where she's found solace

    It's her own little haven

    Wiping off that last tear from her face

    Slowing down her plasma's pace

    And she falls in a haze

    She has broken free

    Ready to flee

    Yes! This road she chose is insanity

    Coz it's better than your reality



    ===============================



    Memo



    Sitting on my window sill

    Watching the dance of the snow flakes



    Looking outside at the frozen lakes

    Thinking about all the blood I wanna spill



    The bloodlust is more powerful than ever

    It's getting harder to keep it abay



    I feel my innocence peeling away

    My soul crying a river



    Sitting on my window sill

    Watching my misty breath



    Huddled in a corner, awaiting death

    My hands are red from my kill



    ===============================

    Im intrigued, very well written, the use of metaphor is as far as i can tell correct and appropriately dispersed, it doesnt matter whether it rhymes or not poetry is about structure, use of words and description, writing style and meaning, here take a look see if yours fits in

    Mermaids do exist, i just so happened to have found out!

    For I have to admit that for many years of my Life I to refuse to believe that such creatures existed.... Until one day someone handed me a research paper that they had done on the subject of merpeople... Now after reading that research paper of my fellow college student I found myself wanting more and more information on this subject.. And that is how my research on merpeople started.... First off I started reading some ancient writting by the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and Persians and several other ancient sea farring Groups of people... And the stories they tell about merpeople told wme why shuch a great hatred exist even unto this day between deepsea fishermen and sailors and merpeople... And in the last year there have been over 20 reports from America, and several other countries that talk about their deep-sea fishermen catching and killing merpeople caught in their deep-sea fishing-nets.... And when they were interviewed as to why did they kill that merperson, They are reported to be seeking revenge from a earlier incident that happen to one of their crewmen that was taken by a merperson after falling over board for one reason or another.... Then I decided to do some research by visting other countries and see what information that they would release to an outsider... And they were kind enough to release information dating back some 200 years.. And it cost me several hundred dollards getting this information translated by a couple of government translater but after reading this information I found that it was well worth the money that I spent...... Then having this new found information and coming back to America I stumbled across someone that gave me information that existed on the freedom of information act.. And the information I gather from that blew me out of my seat... I found information from Sailors and fishermen from WW-I and WW-II and the merchant marines that had their ship sunk by enemy action.. And I even found some Information that talked about the Trans-Atlantic- Crossing during the slave trade period that was truly amazing... Now in WW-I there are tons of stories about ships being sunk by enemy fire By American, French, And German and a few other that told stories about survivors fight off merpeople to save injured Sailor from being taken by merpeople%26gt; And I have stories that say that merpeople were just as bad as the shark attacks that these sailor fought off.. And in WW-II there were even stories by sailor that stated under oath that merpeople were just as bad as Shark when it came to takeing their men.... Now I don't expect one person to take my word as truth... But this informmation is there for any American or anyone else that can get into the freedom of informat file by just a few clicks on their computers.... And I know that many will call me a Numb-Nut... BUt these are the sams people that will just sit on their butts and not do I second of research on their own... But they will just sit ther and say how crazy And say how crazy a person is.. And I could care less.. And I am really sick and tired of those that want you to do all their work for them.. And are just to lazy to press a few keys.... But if there is one person out that does just an half an hour of work you will be totally suprise at the wealth of information that is out there that tells you the truth about merpeople...............................鈥?br>
    And the real crazy fact that merpeople and those other not existing creatures have been around since the dawn of man-kind................................鈥?br>
    i have thought about putting all of this information in a book. But I was told many times I would maybe sell no more than 10 copies.....

    i am a paranormal researcher and investigator, And yes I do believe in the existences of spirits.... As for ufo's I witness one landing in AZ.. I did not see aliens leave the ship for when one of us stood up that ship took off quicker then a lightening strike... And nothing that we have on this earth could come close to matching that flying disk speed.....Mermaids do exist, i just so happened to have found out!
    OH MY!!!!!! you know what i am really really interested about mermaids. i am a 'mermaid wannabe".. and as far as know, these creatures have this hypnotizing powers, and well, i have read a pocket book that stated that, merpeople were once leaving in the land, but when a volcano errupted, their city sunk. i guess that is why it is called the " the Lost city of Atlantis". and some believe that this city could be found under water somewhere. which i generally believe that this story is from Greek mythology. now thank you for sharing your researches.. may i know your friendster account? i really want to know more about mermaids and creatures like that. mine is, NICMYTHOLOGICAL_ZONE@YAHOO.COM.im expecting your reply... thanks again
    Wow I am very familar with your work... For I too am a paranormal researcher and investigator.... And I am sorry to say that no matter how honest and true your word may be.. You will find that so many people are still stuck in the stupid mode.. So keep up the good work by putting the truth out there for all to see....Mermaids do exist, i just so happened to have found out!
    well, i don't really think that i should believe that... because, if mermaids are true, there should be some of them swimming around in discovery channel or national geografic, or news. Nice story, though...



    and about that UFO... maybe you were hallucinating. peace... ^ ^
    Apparently someone knows how gullible you are and is pulling on your leg. And you in turn think the rest of the world is as gullible. And I am not being mean, just honest. Mermaids do exist, i just so happened to have found out!
    oh yeahhh

    and the tooth fairy, easter bunny, Santa clause, and talking animals are real too..

    and ufos are definitely NOT real!!

    goshes,,
    yeah right. so do elves, fairies, leprichauns, e.t., Santa Claus and superman. they all exist! yipee!
    Mermaids don't exist.
    Well, no need to go to a supermarket and buy a big salmon.
    I don't understand the question.
    Wow, that's a lot of words that don't prove anything.

    Amazing.
    I actually believe you there is part of the ocean we have yet to see how can we say there are merpeople or not
    yeah right they are myths
    if u did make i book i can assure u i would buy it and y know i belive u but i also thin k not all merpeople are evil i think its just like on land there are killers and there are givers good and bad is everywhere
    yep!! i believe it. i believe what u say. u know what?? i'm an indian and in our indian mythology, a lot many interesting facts are there.if u find time, just go through translated indian works. there was a god, who, for a cause, took the form of a merperson. interesting?? and they say that a city called dwaraka where this god (god krishna) lived was attacked or kinda that and thats why he put the whole city, dwaraka in water. its a looooong story. u must really read all these indian works. in one book, its given about airoplanes. but the book was written some lakhs of years ago. in a book, they wrote about extraterrestrial creatures. its sooo interesting if u can read'em. i'll find time to tell u more. bye for now.
    Wow. You did a lot of research and you should let other know! If you have found proof or anything thing that can at least support the existence of merpeople then you should publish it. There will be someone out there that will publish it, and many more people than you think will buy it. I would. It would definitely shock many people and , it would be huge really. You should writ your book and get it published. Don't listen to others. Follow your believes. And good for you doing all that research!! Don't let it go to waste.
    I am not of the opinion that mermaids exist, but I like the idea they might. Whoever told you you would only sell "no more than 10 copies..." was full of crap.



    If you have done the research, and have the documentation to prove (or even rationally support) the existence of merpeople, it would blow the roof off the cryptozoology field. It would be foolish (and almost unethical) NOT to publish such a book. Go for it, it would be BIG...
    First, try not to confuse the meanings of "mean" and "honest" here.



    You have a lot to say here and it's an interesting story - but this is clearly not a question. This would be considered a rant, and violates your agreement to abide by the terms of service of Y!A.



    I would suggest that if you don't want to write a book about your research and experiences, that you start by blogging about them - there are several sites where you can set up a blog free of charge. This is not really the appropriate forum to be posting all of this. If you attract a ton of readers at a blog on these paranormal and mysterious subjects, that would also be a good indication of how a book might do.



    However, I would suggest a bit of editing if you decide to write, because the way you're rambling on here - you do come across as sounding a bit crazy - it's not just because of the subject matter, it's how you are presenting it. If you were rambling on like this about your last trip to the grocery store, with improper grammar and punctuation and incomplete sentences, half thoughts, etc. - it would still be hard to read and accept.



    And lastly - the hot topic around here lately isn't really a debate about whether mermaids exist (or ever existed) or not - the thing is that a bunch of kids who watch the fictional television show "H2O: Just Add Water" are convinced that they can use magic to turn themselves into mermaids. Which I am still going to say is impossible.



    Has any of your research proven that any human ever cast a spell to turn themselves into a mermaid and suceeded? Seriously, if we could turn ourselves into a different species, why aren't more people doing so? I would be tempted to turn myself into a labrador retriever, because every lab I know lives the life of Riley.



    I honestly don't have a problem with kids believing that mythical creatures are or once were real and imagining what it would like to be one - but their inability to separate reality from fiction/imagination, their belief that everything they see on a fictional television show is a real possibility - this concerns me about the mental state of today's teens, as well as what's happening with our educational system these days.
    "and don't me rude! i've only seen 1 nice answer from Nicole. the rest of you are being mean!"



    They're not "being mean", you're just being childish about criticism. Your "proof" is not proof. I can't believe someone that claims to be in college can be fooled so easily.
    you really are something. everything from your profile to your answers. stealing others work and pictures. i would suggest not trying to appear chemically imbalanced. there is no such thing as mermaids, the first appearance of mermaids is when a man drew a picture book for kids, and then later they made "Ariel". the original artist indicated that he created the image by thinking of the most beautiful woman in the beautiful ocean.

    Bonjour,

    I'm Gabi from the south France (Marseilles).

    I have to describe myself in english. I tried to do my best, but I know there are few (or a lot? I hope no) mistakes.

    I don't know people around me who speak a fluent english, but I'm sure it will be easy for you.

    CURRENT MISSION

    To forget time

    OCCUPATION

    Dreamer



    ALL ABOUT YOU

    The human nature is elusive. Do I have to describe my desires or my reason, because few of my desires are reasonable鈥?Do I have to try to draw my real nature or the woman I am with her history and surroundings ?

    I grew up and stayed to this day in the same region : la Provence. Even if I would have liked to move and to do big travels during my childhood, my imagination is all the bigger. I aspire to an endless freedom, complete independence.

    When I was a child, I wanted to become an astronaut, then apple merchant, painter, politician, writer. In 2009, I鈥檓 studying medicine in Marseilles. I divide my time among the hospital, courses, student job ; books, movies, music ; flamenco, windsurf and climbing ; parties with friends, my family and trips.

    In June I鈥檓 going to south America for 3 months. Until then I would like to go in Morocco and Quebec, and after then to visit my sister in Shanghai.



    HOW I PARTICIPATE

    To begin communicate my optimism and big smile, the continuation build in a group !



    EXPERIENCE

    I have hosted, been hosted and met some of you!

    Writing mails, sharing good ideas, meeting someone somewhere in this world, drinking and speaking together, having new friends, helping travelers who want to see the south France.. I'm inpatient for all of that!



    INTERESTS

    To wake me up with sun ray warming up my skin

    The Nature : see, swimming, windsurf, mountain, skiing, climbing (one day, Everest?)

    The dynamism of big cities, keep the belief of be able to change the world into one鈥檚 view

    To watch a good movie when I鈥檓 tired, this brings me new dreams and new thoughts

    Some moments of deep melancholic loneliness

    Talk just for the sake of talking (I鈥檓 a chatterbox? no..), use comic situations

    Trust people, feel considered and loved



    PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY

    I love the life. We must protected it and express it by all means : art, thought, social interaction.

    A happy life doesn鈥檛 worry about time going

    To live on love and fresh air, but my conscience forced me to be actor on this earth : to be constantly in a total opposition. Its balance is the happiness, its resolution the death.



    PEOPLE I ENJOY

    People ready to share and to let oneself discover,

    Who aren鈥檛 scared of the difference, the unknown, their deep imaginary and the creativity,

    Someone who considered me as a whole person without judge my direct action.

    People who will help me to build my mind full of questions or to the contrary who will make me them forgotten



    TEACH, LEARN, SHARE

    A bit of dance (ballet, flamenco, tango, salsa)

    To sing in a round French songs

    Some advices for having a lift with hitch-hiking for long distances

    Cooking really easy : crepes and carbonara pasta



    AMAZING THING DONE / SEEN

    Take part in an open heart surgery (successful!) during 8 hours.



    YOUR OPINION PLEASE !

    Wonderful : at the time of couchsurfing like hitch-hiking, I have a request, but my weakness becomes a strength when we trust each other without expecting anything in return except for a bit of humanity!



    COUCH

    A blue sofa that can be converted into a bed in the living room.

    I am living in front of the medical school with a friend (girl) who is studying medicine like me.

    My home is 20 minutes by foot from the center town, but 5 minutes from the underground.

    No pets.

    We don't smoke, but you can smoke on the balcony.

    There are supermarkets and shops in the quarter.

    Few days are ok. Fast every time.



    Thank you very much to spend time with me!!

    Source(s):

    Well written. Gabi, I made a few changes mostly for clarity. I took some liberties with your text. I don't know what you meant by singing in a round so I used chorus but you can change it to group or band.

    Answering earns you 2 points.

  • Do you think that this is a cool phone??

    click here to look at it: http://www.dreamkitty.com/Merchant2/merc鈥?/a>



    it might take a few seconds for it to load.

    and please do not say anything about the price or where its located or whatever. just tell me what you think of the ACTUAL PHONE!



    do you think that this is the type of phone that you could get tired of quickly?? please keep in mind that i am a 16 year old girl and i am obsessed with hello kitty and i love the color pink and really girlie things!!Do you think that this is a cool phone??
    i think its amazing! hehe! doesnt matter how old you are hello kitty can be for anyt age, so dont listen to thos other ppl!! im 19 and i have hello kitty on my fone! =D



    Hope i helped!
    I think that it is cute.Do you think that this is a cool phone??
    600 bucks

    WHOA XD

    thats hella expensive

    but that phone is REALLY cute :D

    hello kitty owns.

    im 14 :D
    It is very fascinating and EXPENSIVE.Do you think that this is a cool phone??
    well, I guess if you're REALLY obsessed with Hello Kitty and don't care what other people think, go for it! But if you think you may tire of it quickly or feel ashamed, then you may want to rethink this.

    Good luck!

    :)
    I really don't like it but, it's your choice.
    i think u gonna get sick of it soon

    but if ur "obssessed with hellokitty"

    go for it ..idk
    Yea it's cool but you might not like it for long...
    its tight but i dont like the color pink :[ ya you could get tired of it quickly
    ahhhhhhhhhhh heck no!!!!!!
    sure.. that's fine for an 8 year old.. who shouldn't have a cell phone anyway.
    i agree with above, it looks kind of like one of those toy phones you can buy at toys r us for a little kid
    Wow. Now THAT is a weird phone.But cool. It does look like the kind of phone that could get tired. But I love pink too so do whatever you want. I just want to say that it is COOL
    i love the phone dang now i want 1 but if u love hello kitty?pink than it's a def. yes!
    sorry but i think hello kitty is for 5 year olds. why dont you get an iPhone if you're gonna spend that much?
    I think if you where a phone... that phone would be you! lol! I thkn you should go for it! I'm really girly too and I don't really care about hello kitty.. but that is so cute! Love it!



    Hope you get it =]
    well it is for babys but i guess people that like hello kitty sure but i have the phone and it is just pink and im not tired of it
    well if you really like Helly Kitty then go for it, no one can tell you otherwise....and it is really cute
    its so cute!! i like hello kitty too, nd i love pink. i think if u like hello kitty and pink u should get it, and dont worry no one is too old to like hello kitty
    I LOVE IT for these reasons lol%26gt;

    cute

    it's pink

    cool looking

    it slides

    hello kitty is on it

    so yeah i love it!!
    its cute, but i think u could find a much better hello kitty phone for that price. what u should do is find a phone that u really like. features wise. like, the touch and slide top. all that stuff. then u can get it customized. color and desktop and settings. it will be exactly the way u want it, plus it will most likely be cheaper. the phone is really cute, but the qualitl of the buttons, like the # keys, do not have good quality.

    i think its really pretty tho.

    :)

    CUTE!!!
    Ok, so first of all, on the technology end...you have to be careful because, while it has all of the extra bells and whistles that we want in a cell phone it doesn't look like it works on the 850 frequency. In the US, cell phone service runs on 850 and 1900....now, this isn't one of those things where you can say "Oh well, I will just run on the 1900." Often times, when talking and traveling you are switching back and forth between 850 and 1900 without even knowing it...this allows you to mainatin a phone conversation as well as make phone calls from INDOORS! This latter tidbit is something that comes from personal experience. Most write-ups won't tell you that it is difficult to connect from the center of a building on a single band phone or a tri-band phone that only has 1900, but from a girl that has tried the world phones (tri and quadband) time and time again I will tell you, it is the biggest headache! I now have a dual band that works much (100x's) better.



    As far as the phone cosmetically, I don't think fun outweighs functionality. You will quickly come to hate the phone if it drops calls or you can't get service....so I suggest either finding a hello kitty phone that has the appropriate frequencies or perhaps purchasing a pink phone with the appropriate frequencies and some neat hello kitty accessories--that way you can personalize the phone and have one that is totally unique and totally you!
    If you're seven...

    But if you like hello kitty then go for it.
    It looks perfect for you =)
    It's a cool phone but not worth it all it is: a slider phone with a hellokitty cover its not worth all that money just get a customized blackberry it has everything the hk phone has but with a mp3 player internet etc. and better.!! but that phone is not worth it.

    Can anybody remember a bike similar to the 70`s Raleigh Chopper bicycle?

    Many moons ago when i was a brat, my dad was in the Norwegian merchant navy as a Deck-hand and my uncle Axel was a boson. My dad and my uncle Axle brought home two bikes

    for my cousin and myself that were very similar to the British "Chopper" bike but well before the Chopper hit the market. They were yellow and i`m sure they had the name "Dragster" The front tyre was fatter than the chopper and the seat back rest bar was not quite as high, if my memory is correct. I remember my cuz was about 2 yrs older than me, and he could ride his bike OK but my grandpa had to strap wooden blocks to the peddles even with the seat at its lowest point so my feet could reach! But even though our bikes were not Choppers, they were the envy of the local Bandits and Axel`s was stolen from the school shed. I remember when Axel spotted some kid on it on the way home and we followed him on my bike. Me ,hanging on for dear life. Axel, trying to get his enormous feet to stay on the wooden peddle blocks, and screams of sheer terror from yours truly as we went down Huntington hill! my butty box and rucksack left a trail of Banana skins, P.E kit and unwanted math homework And then we crashed! .But! we. meaning Axel.Caught him trying to escape in his back yard.Guess who got thrown over the wall and bitten by a Tyrannosaurus chocolate Labrador ? Anywho! Sorry for getting carried away. Can anyone remember this bike?

    I also remember a brilliant toy gun called " Johnny seven" and a huge green Tank that was operated by a walkie talkie from a wire to the tank.This tank was huge, even by today's standards, and had proper rubber tracks. It was able to climb a HUGE compost heap,and chase any invading ducks, puppies,kittens,or sisters away from your territory ( if you could get it off dad!) I would love to know any thing about these toys !Can anybody remember a bike similar to the 70`s Raleigh Chopper bicycle?
    There was a smaller version of the "Chopper" called the "Chipper" for smaller/younger kids with a smaller frame and no gears. The latest incarnation of the Chopper has handgrip gear change so the "gentleman vegetables" are not damaged as you slide forward off the saddle! I've seen one with a 250cc engine!

    The Johnny Seven is still available from a guy on ebay who has a mnassive stock of pre-owned ones that he repairs and reassembles.

    Don't recall the tank, but a mate had a huge warship (with wheels) that trundled around firing sucker tipped darts from the turrets at his dog.
    Not sureCan anybody remember a bike similar to the 70`s Raleigh Chopper bicycle?
    Could it have been the Raleigh Budgie?
    don't know many toys from those years but the old Christmas catalogs from those years (http://www.wishbookweb.com/) are a good help if it came from the USCan anybody remember a bike similar to the 70`s Raleigh Chopper bicycle?
    Wow those sound cool. I don't remember those, they were before my time unfortunately. :( I checked out photos of the Raleigh Chopper and if you wanted to get something similar for the kids, I found some children's bikes that are similar:

  • 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Pressure Gauge Problem?

    My 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a V8 converted to 2WD. It's not by any means a new vehicle and has had its share of problems. I've replaced the axles, various sensors, the tires, and other small parts. Recently the problems have included the Oil Pressure gauge falling to "zero" and the "Check Gauges" light comes on along with the beep. The Jeep has 163k+ miles and the previous owner did not take perfect care of it. I've been keeping up with oil changes, routine maintenance, etc. My first thought when the light came on was to check my oil to make sure I had enough, I took the dipstick out and it was well coated in it. As far as I know that's an ok way to check your oil level. The HUD keeps popping up with "Coolant Sensor Bad", could this be related or is it just bad timing to get hit with both? I need this vehicle to last as long as possible and I do not have much money so I need to know if there is anything I can do to fix it. I bought some oil, a funnel, an oil filter, and a coolant sensor so I could try to fix it. If anyone knows what could cause all these problems please let me know. I really can't afford to take it to merchant's and pay them a hundred bucks just to tell me whats wrong with it. Thank you.1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Pressure Gauge Problem?
    I have the same year and model jeep, except still 4WD. I have the exact same problem. Hope someone can answer this.

  • What's the best wireless headphone I should get?

    I recently acquired a 3rd shift job. I live with 4 other people who work during the day. I get home between 2am - 5am every morning. I'm not ready to go to bed right away. I just got a new video game I'd like to enjoy and I listen to lots of stuff on my computer, and I'm tired of trying to be quiet while everyone is asleep. If you have knowledge or experience on wireless headphones please share your story. I'd like to be able to plug it in to the sound system we have when I play on the PS3, (probably the bigger jack), and then be able to switch to the headphone jack on my computer. Right now, I'm kind of looking at the Sennheiser RS 170 Digital Wireless Headphone with Dynamic Bass and Surround Sound (currently in my amazon cart: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-RS-170-Wireless-Headphone/dp/B002TLT10I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8%26amp;m=ASH1H6YCFH4EF%26amp;s=merchant-items%26amp;qid=1301125149%26amp;sr=1-1 ) Is this good? Is this too much? I think $300 is the maximum I would go.



    I don't want something cheap that will give me poor sound quality. Basically, I want to be able to listen to my stuff at volume levels I wish I could listen to without headphones, but with great sound quality, bass, and whatnot.What's the best wireless headphone I should get?
    Since you already discovered the Sennheisers, there's not much more to add. Best wireless audio quality today is provided by the KLEER system.



    But since you're asking for opinions, let me add my .02$: I see no sense in going wireless if you want to stick with the huge cans. If you want to go wireless, go for some sort of portable headphones. Ok, A2DP is not as good as KLEER, but still quite decent - and the MX W1 look very tempting, but a bit above your budget (or mine, for that matter :-((( ).

    I feel like the biggest d*ckweed ever?

    im in china and i met this merchant girl at a market. i go there often so people recognize my face a lot. there wuz this one girl that recognized me and i wuz just caught in her beauty like wtf whats happening. so i talked to her. and the next day i came, then the next. and i wuz going to ask for her number and she ended up asking for mine. that night we had an awesome super flirtatious conversation and she said she wuz tired. i said go to sleep. and she said but i want to talk to you, you make me happy. that made me melt. and just thinking about her makes me sizzle. her nice hair, her round eyes, her voice.



    but the real dilemma and why i feel like such a dickweed is that she is 18 and since i look older, i said i wuz 18 too. and im actually only 15. and im leaving in a week and half and i feel so guilty about lying to her. my friends say oh this is china you'll probably never see her again, but the truth is i WANT to see her again. i need to tell her but i dont know how or how she will take it. i still want to maintain contact even when i go back home to california. i feel so stupid. what do i do?



    P.S. i know ima douchebagI feel like the biggest d*ckweed ever?
    yes you are. so you should eat her pussy all night until she cums in your mouth to make up for itI feel like the biggest d*ckweed ever?
    Hahah, she made you "melt" all jokes aside you shouldn't feel like a douche we've all lied to older women about are age at 15 or 16. If you tell her it could be a deal breaker but since you want to stay in contact, tell her and just pursue her when you're 18. Hopefully you can win her again then.I feel like the biggest d*ckweed ever?
    just tell her the truth and if she really is as nice as you think she'll understand :)



    all the best xx

    What do you suggest? Should I have a relationship with someone I don't love?

    I'm a 26 year old heterosexual man currently studying in United States, but originally from an Asian country. I'm also a virgin. And I've been told I'm good looking. The reason why I'm a virgin follows.

    My childhood was spent in an all male boarding school until my high school, where there was very little chance of female contact. I came home for vacations, but our family was sort of isolated, and I would often spend months in the house with my very strict parents, with whom I had no close personal relation (I always felt they controlled me, not loved me). From there it was straight to a merchant marine academy, where part of the training was to acclimatize us for long sea voyages, and we were given very little leave. But life aboard a ship was not as romantic as I hoped for, and I quit after getting the diploma. At the end of all this, I was 21.

    Then I went to college. This was my first time having real contact with females. I had several crushes during my four years in college, and at least three of which developed in to full blown obsessions. Actually, these obsessions were a way of giving a purpose to my life. I imagined that I was working to possess them, and that kept me working towards a goal.

    Now, I've come here for my graduate degree. I'm tired of working so hard for a long time, and I feel like my life has no meaning. I'm lonely, fantasize everyday about finding true love, and masturbate profusely. And even though girls show their interest in me, I do not make a move on them because I think they somehow measure up to my standards for a long term relationship, or because I tell myself I don't need a casual relationship. But I'm lonely as hell.



    Will having a casual relationship cure my loneliness? I don't get in to one because in my minds eye, I can't imagine myself having intense feelings for someone who I do not trust and expect will leave me someday. And I'm afraid of getting too emotionally attached. It's not the sex part I want, just that I have this void to fill this big void. Will finding a short term partner do this, or will I have to wait until I find someone that I can love wholeheartedly? I have never been in a relationship with anyone before.What do you suggest? Should I have a relationship with someone I don't love?
    You should never enter a serious relationship with a girl you don't love. Just wait for Mrs. Right, dont worry she will come into your life.
    I didnt read the whole question but if you want a realationship just get some friends, flirt a bit, if one asks you out then take the chance, you might like it. Or if you like someone else then ask them out.What do you suggest? Should I have a relationship with someone I don't love?
    to develop you have to go into a relationship, its hard to trust people and yes people will let you down with there trust but ut makes you grow, i only ever fully trusted two people in my life my ex girlfriend and my wee sister who 14,



    you can be with someone and explain what your looking for, once your with someone and you hasve the family talk you know there afurter with the person, by family talk i mean yous talking about each other family and asking questiomns
    just go out and live your life...the way you want to live your life.



    if the relationship happens. it happens.



    do what ever makes you happy.What do you suggest? Should I have a relationship with someone I don't love?
    maybe its not a girlfriend you are looking for... maybe its just friends. i think you should just open up to lots of girls small talk leading to personal personal maybe leading to girlfriend boyfriend :D good luck :)
    open you horizons, make some friends and see where things take you. its never a good idea to love anybody that you have no real feeling for. its better to be happy than feel like a mistake. can i offer maybe creating an account on a friendship site? or a dating site, sometimes you can really get to know and find alot of interesting people. one day you'll find someone dude, it takes time :) good luck



    becides ur still in college? try to talk to fellow classmates and make friends with them, or join clubs that you like. anythings possible
    Nope.



    You'll just be cheating the other person

    and possibly AND probably hurting your-

    self in the end. Your lonliness couldn't

    be cured by being in a relatioship with

    someone you don't love. It just couldn't.

    Perhaps for a little while, but it wouldn't

    last forever.



    I know that lonliness is hell in itself, but

    it's alot better to have someone walk into

    your life who you really love. It'd be much

    more worth it.



    Ultimately, your decision. But I don't think

    you should be with someone-under any

    circumstance-to help with lonliness.



    Good luck, nevertheless. :)
    Uhhhh... tough call. I'd say that you should try to date some more cuz having more contact with others will probobly cure your lonliness. also pick a hobby or something. finding people that enjoy things you do and interacting with them will probably cure it. as for the final final final final final final back up plan... try eharmony.com or something lol. just get used to people... oh and i feel bad 4 ur childhood T_T. Good luck!
    Please don't date a person that you're not in love with.

    Whats the point of dating a person who you have no feelings for.

    It's pointless.

    Let that person be happy with someone that truly love her.
    if you don't like the person then no because it will just cause problems problems and more problems!!
    You don't have to love someone to be in a relationship with them. But if you have your eye on a certain girl ask her out on a date. You don't have to know her well, but GET to know her. If it works maybe there will be a relationship in the near future. Maybe you will eventually fall in love with the girl but who knows.
    First let's separate sex, love, friendship, and relationships. You like all other men crave companionship, and the feeling of being loved especially from the sex of your choice. Your sexual desires are being met physically and that is healthy from the standpoint of relieving yourself and then again to empty out the vasdeferin Storage sacks daily just as you do the other wastes of your body. Over one million sperm are produced daily along with new fresh seaman. So keep healthy in the physical sense.

    With the loneliness feeling. I recommend that you do start socializing and meet and make a friend first. Friendships lead to relationship and romance. You have to do your part as a male to lure the female with your best qualities. She will do the same for you. So, get on with it and fulfill the void.

    Don't rush it,...just mix socially and let it happen dude. You will do okay.!!! Don't let it get you down.!!





    grasshopper
    Casual relationships and dating can often lead to something more serious. Even if you don't see yourself loving someone you are just seeing, things can change and you can find yourself loving them eventually. Casual relationships are often the starting point to something really meaningful. If they don't lead you anywhere, you can learn a lot from them and it will help ease the loneliness you feel. I think you should give casual relationships a try. If anything it'll be fun and it might lead to meeting new people and maybe even the love of your life.
    in america a 26 year old man is very young. you sound like you have a lot to offer, just relax and befriend people and go from there.
    No. Having a "casual relationship" will not "cure" your loneliness. It could give you something/one to do, but that's only a short-term solution. You have to think long-term if you want to be happy. Next time you find yourself interested in someone, be open-minded, expect the unexpected BUT don't stress over it. Relationships have their ups and downs %26amp; its natural. Don't ruin your life and relationships because your not being open with oppertunities. Being a virgin isnt a problem. Someone who sincerely loves you will see past that.
