    When I click start/programs not ALL of my folders/programs show up. The only ones that appear are the ones I've most recently used. To get into the other folders I have to click a double-arrow (pointing down). I find this ANNOYING! When I click start/programs I want to be able to see EVERYTHING...

    Cheap household beverages?

    Recently I've been buying Gatorade and Orange Juice as my primary household beverages. Because I'm a student and I'm really trying to save money I'd rather find a cheaper alternative since I go through Gatorade and Orange Juice pretty regularly, and plain water is "boring". I pride myself on...

    Anyone seen the Taliban spokesman on TV? His lips don't move!!!

    The local news keeps running a tape of a taliban spokesman condeming the U.S. attacks. You can hear his voice, but you can't see his lips move. I think he is a true ventriloquist.

    What is the name of this elementary school game?

    I think it's a chick game, cuz I don't remember many guys playing it. There is a line of boxes drawn on the ground. After a few boxes there would be two boxes drawn next to eachother. And the goal was to jump into each box, one foot per box, all the way down the line. I don't even know if it is...

    Carl Everett is an idiot!

    The guy is a freakin' firecracker. He headbutts umpires, hugs the plate and gets pissed off if anyone calls him on it, and not only poisons his team, but also the entire sport of baseball as well. He needs to be put down, or just kicked out of baseball for life. I doubt he could keep a real job...

    Why do I have to hit the BACK button 3 times before I will go back to my previous page?

    I'm using IE 5.5. If I'm surfing a thread or forum and I want to go back to a previous page, I will hit my back button. The first 2 times I hit it, it will do nothing. The third time will work though and take me to my previous page. This only happens with the forums. What's up with that?

    Does the number of pillows you use affect your posture later in life?

    I can't seem to decide whether to use 2 pillows or one pillow when I sleep. Most of my life I've rested my head on 2 (or 1 1/2) pillows, but recently I've tried to use just one. I've noticed my neck isn't as sore in the morning if I only use one pillow. So I'm just wondering if someone knows...

    As we get older, men's stock goes up while women's stock goes down.

    Let me float this theory: 1) Guys are pretty much at the bottom of the totem pole when they are young. Between ages 16-24 if you're not in college you're probably working some crappy job, maybe even living at home. You might go out and get dates, but it's really hard to impress the ladies when...

    Why do muffins and certain breads give me the hiccups or make my throat feel weird?

    Are publicists just as bad as lawyers?

    Ok, maybe publicists don't screw you over as much as lawyers. But I get the same vibe from both of them like everything that comes out of their mouth is total BS. Mostly concerning pro athletes and celebrities. I really think they are evil people. Don't ya think?
