What is a nice guy? Ask a hundred people and I suspect you would get a hundred different answers. I'm going to talk about the nice guy only with respect to relationships.

Are you an alcoholic?According to popular thinking this can only be answered by the individual who is doing the drinking. However, there are certain "red flags" that indicate a problem drinker.

Style & Beauty > Style & Beauty (Other) Is real beauty on the outside or the inside?: 35 of 175
To properly address this question we first need to define what beauty is. The most applicable definition I found is simply "excellent aspect: an attractive, useful, or satisfying feature."

In the Microsoft Works word processor the word sport is defined as: an individual or group competitive activity involving physical exertion or skill, governed by rules, and sometimes engaged in professionally. This certainly qualifies poker as a... More..
Relationships & Family > Communication Issues Is it wiser to always tell the truth?: 14 of 42
Is it wiser to always tell the truth?There is an old saying, "the truth can never hurt you." Another way of saying it is: if you are honest, with no hidden motives, nothing but good can come to you. Being a long time member of Alcoholics Anonymous, I have seen and heard thousands of people who think that their secrets are too... More..
Hobbies & Games > Video Game Reviews Downloadable game review: Westward III: 6 of 17
Having never played any of the games in this series before, I eagerly anticipated the chance to try it for free. It sounded like it could be an interesting game to play, maybe even good enough to buy. Sadly, the execution of the free trial did not live up to my expectations.

Can the Cardinals continue their upset run?The Cardinals are on fire right now, but can they hold things together long enough to defeat Pittsburgh? St. Louis is not the first 9-7 team to make it to the championship, and won't be the last either. They will definitely be the underdogs, but in every game they have played in the ... More..
