 | Girlfriend's dad has brain cancer... - iggle on 12/26/12 at 1:35 pm
The worst kind, real aggressive. They got it cut out successfully but his body reacted poorly to the experimental vaccine. So, he can't receive that. Best cases for these live around 4 years, average a year or less. Started chemo today.
She's taking it really hard. I mean really hard. She's only ...

My parents just moved to NC and my dad is thinking of trying fly fishing. I want to get him some lessons or a class for Christmas so he can try it out before he buys all the gear.
Any recommendations or tips on what I should be looking for? Or any great outfitters I should be looking at around th...

what's the proper procedure for this? The job is doing something else that I enjoy more and am qualified to do. It's a step up in my opinion. I've been told to speak with my current boss about it, to see what he thinks and how I'd do. What does everyone else think? How should I go about this? I've n...

Long story short, I do not have a 401k available through my work. I'm 26 and work full time. I started an IRA effective 2009. I maxed it out last year and plan on doing it again this year. But that's the most I can do with it year in and year out.

| Most Realistic Love Stories - iggle on 3/15/12 at 1:39 pm
I think most guys don't like chick flicks because they're sappy, unrealistic, fairy tale versions of relationships that girls eat up and dream of, but that don't ring true at all to real life love.
I recently saw An Officer and a Gentleman again, and I found I cared much more about Zach and Paula...
