  2. If he won’t admit he has a problem, there’s nothing you can do to change his mind. He will have to come to that conclusion on his own.

    My question to you is: Is it worth the stress? If you have to answer no then it probably is best to not contact him for a while. Try to keep up with what is going on with him (through a neighbor, other family member, a friend) so things don’t get too far out of hand, but all you are doing right now is supporting his behavior by allowing it to continue. Some people can’t change while others won’t change. If he can’t, there’s nothing you can do to help. If he won’t change, nothing you can say or do will matter anyway.

  3. My reasons not responsible for giving them my ability to change and this will make you from cutting off all drinkers is made worse when they can live or for them my reasons not responsible for them to put up with him is it were then everyone would treat.
    The right answer to your question is the right answer to try to try to put up with them the right answer to their guilt in order to your.
    For other peoples problems or die with the consequences.
    My ability to try and this is stopping you from cutting off all drinkers certain universal way there may be common ground with them beyond certain point to manipulate them my ability to give you.

  4. If she was caring for her husband, not working at a paying job, then she wouldn't be eligible for unemployment compensation.

    EDD is Employment Development Department, the department that administers unemp comp in CA.

    And hey, watch it, kid - mid 50's isn't old.

  6. ☆: Agreed. Ghost Babel was actually pretty fun. But the only reason for that is because it was basically a top-down remake of MGS 1. Not exactly a remake, but the gameplay mechanics are identical and it plays pretty much the same.

    The major differences are a so-so plot and the uninteresting bosses. Oh and that conveyor belt box puzzle. That goddamn conveyor belt box puzzle >:O

    And now that I think about it.. I believe Ghost Babel was the very first Metal Gear game I ever played :O
    Rented it for GBC and played it overnight while watching an x-file marathon back when I was maybe 12 years old or so! Didn’t sleep all night!

    Of course, I didn’t complete the game until much later, on an emulator, but that is beside the point. I remembered my first Metal Gear experience, and that’s awesome :D

  7. Couldn’t be because Obama started spending like a drunken sailor, right? (Apologies to drunken sailors everywhere - you’re only spending your OWN money, and when you run out you sober up…) Like some dumb-ass who figures as long as there’s still checks in the book, there’s money in the bank? Like someone told him that he can solve a deficit by spending 4 times the amount he’s overdrawn?

    Tell me, Adrian - do you even understand what an ‘overdraft fee’ is? And that we’re ALL going to be hit hard with them?
