What are the ingredients of a White Russian?

Favorite Answer:

Hey Army Wife,

So far you only have two right answers! What and Irinia! The classic recipe is done, floated (One pour on top of the other — No mixing, No blending)

Glass of Ice

1 Part Vodka

1 Part Kahlua (You can substitute Kamora – I’ve never found anything else close)

Top with Milk or 1/2 and 1/2

It tastes best when you go long on the alcohol and short on the creamery addition! (My opinion)

Good Drinking!

Do ferrets smell?

Hey Suzanne,

Yup, I have 3, but I am confused, I was under the impression that all Ferrets in the USA had to be descented! Mine are and they only smell when they are spooked. I wash them about once every two months, it seems to be enough — They are very clean themselves! There was a comment regarding their poop/urine.. Yes, like a cat or a dog, if you don’t clean up after them, of course you’ll have a smell.

If you are thinking about adopting, GOOD FOR YOU! I have had four total! I have so much fun with them that I can’t think of how my life would be without them! They make me chase them around the house (the area’s that they are allowed to roam when they are not in their cage) and they make me laugh! Can you think of any other reason to have a pet?

Good Luck!

How did you learn to stand up for your rights?

Hey Mind-go,

In any situation where you have one set of rules and others seem to have their own agenda, things can go awry very quickly.

I have found that the easiest way to avoid this is to simply ask them what it is they think they are doing. My favorite way is to simply ask “Is there a different memo that you are going with for this meeting?” “I must not have gotten it.” Typically they will be kind of flustered and ask Why? Explain to them that you both could get more done by working together on the same problem as opposed to working against each other. You have put them on notice that you think that they are adversarial and will probably do things differently during the next meeting.

If this fails, go above both of you and state your objections to that person. They will be ultimately responsible for the project going forth as planned and will reign in any problem children.

It has worked for me and I hope it works for you!

Hey Folks! I’m an actor and I need a flexible schedule to go on auditions. Any suggestions for a day job?

Favorite Answer:

Hey Quatro,

Well, you’ve got the two most obvious Bartending and Catering. I would include delivery (like Pizza) but the high cost of gas in California may preclude that. Although since you said Los Angeles;

Escort or Massuese (..errr, they refer to them as body rubs.)

Depending on the look or the “options” you can make a few hundred per day/night up to several thousand per weekend. It’s kinda like Gigolo meets hooker. Look in the back of Frontiers or LA Weekly to see the ads.

There is always become an actor!

How can Wal-Mart supercenters can answer to complaints?

Favorite Answer:

Hey Rick,

If it isn’t built yet, then talk to your city manager or council member. They should hold a meeting with the taxpayers to let them know what might happen.

If it is already in the planning stage or being built…. Sorry, you are out of luck.

Once they are open, you can try to complain about any actual traffic/noise or pollution problems to the city departments directly, but since they are such a broad tax base, your complaints may fall on deaf ears.

If you can show that you are being harmed by the WalMart and you can prove these financial loses, you can sue in either Civil (District or Superior) Court or in Small Claims Court for damages. Be forewarned! Those taxes also help support your court system.

Vote the Bast**ards out of office or run yourself next election!

Help required from anyone involved in recruitment / careers advice?

Favorite Answer:

Hey Craig,

A few pointers:

1). Get your resume down to 1 page! You can do this by;

**a: List your High School as name and diploma. Unless you went to a private preparatory school, the employer won’t give a rats butt if you had P.E. or French (your not fluent, right?)

**b: Assoc.College, list Worcester – date – major – degree

**c: Upper College, list U of Sussex – date – major – still attending

**d: Don’t list jobs that you have held for less than 30 days (1 week? Craig, what can you learn in 1 week that is of value)

2). Get your resume unified! Make the positions flow from 1 to another. You have customer contact at 3 places! Highlight that!

3). Develop different resumes! Your backgrounds are so varied. Make one resume that highlights your computer/math skills.

Make one resume that highlights your Customer Service skills.

Make one resume that highlights your Bar/Pizza skills.

By having different versions of the same resume, when you see a job that you like – you can send the appropriate resume.

4). Have you done volunteer work, coached, been in scouting? List these things! They make up your character and they ARE jobs!

I was going to add some things, but I think that once you get your resume down to 1 page send me a message to review and give you any more feedback.

Look up resumes on yahoo or monster to see what a resume should look like. Once you see what your resume looks like through monster or yahoo, it will help you in your layout. Or another idea, submit your information to the monster resume builder, and then view it. You will see what I am talking about.

Good luck,

Let me know if I can be of further assistance!
