Armstrong7886 I know you say you wouldn't trust the cops but I think that would be the first thing I did too. ATMs have cameras so they would be able to tell it wasn't robbery. And I also think most ATMs have a 24 hour phone number to call which I would do before I went to...

Armstrong7886 Don't worry lol you aren't doing anything wrong that is just how nesquik is. Your post reminds me though of a comedy skit that Dane Cook has. If you haven't heard any of it you should look it up. The one about Nesquik is called "Hopped up on 'Q'" haha...

Armstrong7886 I have found that the Atkins diet (even though there is a lot of bad publicity on it) has been really helpful with me losing weight. I lost 70 pounds in less than a year when I was in high school. That was with doing the diet AND exercising. And just recently...

How do you view failure?

taface412 @taface412 (3175) • United States 11 May 08

In life we tend to focus on the successes more than the importance of failure. Without failure we would never know how it feels to succeed. Imagine if your whole life things were handed to you on a plate without any...

Armstrong7886 I hate failure. But when you stop to realize why you failed, what you can do to not fail next time, etc., it just makes you a stronger person. I have failed a lot in life but I am at a place now where things aren't the best but they are pretty great. And it...

Armstrong7886 Every action has its own reaction. So determining the reaction of what action you are deciding should be your main priority in decision making. Is what you deciding going to harm you or anyone else. If so is there another decision that will be better and what...

Armstrong7886 Cedric Benson has been a bust. He was supposed to be the next best thing in Chicago. I think Miami made the best choice that year with a running back, selecting Ronnie Brown (I may only say that because I'm a huge dolphins fan, and sure he got hurt last year,...
