    Depression

    SkierDave, I know personally, the reason I would not suggest going to a Psychiatrist (the ones that medicate) is because the medications they normally prescribe are not taken for a month and then gone. Most prescriptions from Psychiatrists are long term presriptions. When issues with...

    looking for a place to crash at/near hunter mountain

    I've gotten a room at Villa Vosilla pretty cheap before, worth giving them a call, and I've also had good deals staying at the Hunter Arms. However, since you said you have an event there, I'm guessing its with some organization such as PSIA, so I'd call central booking at Hunter, and see if...

    Depression

    if she'll go, a psychologist is your and her best bet (they don't prescribe meds - meds can lead to life long dependancy which isn't always needed). However, the best thing you can do is be ther efor her, and try to get her involved in her normal routine as much as possible. Get her out and...

    NOr-Eastern? coming?

    from what I hear last night, we have a possibility of a Nor'Easter Sunday. However they were saying its too far to predict with any certainty. They were saying it could hit the North East with a large amount of snow, of could go south, giving the North East nothing. We shall wait and see...

    jesus.. did he really walk this Earth?

    I think if you look beyond the Christian religions you'll see that most likely he was a man and did walk the earth. Obviously Christians believe he walked the earth, but in both Judaism and Islam they acknowledge Jesus as a man, and that he did walk the earth. So I'd say its a safe bet that he...

    Shoe vs Boot size

    shoe size: 8-8.5 (sometimes 9) boot size: 25/25.5 To get the approximate mens shoe size from the mondopoint rating, just subtract 18. so my 25/25.5 are like 7/7.5. Most people will ski boots 1-2 sizes smaller than their shoes. However, some people will go as far as 4 sizes smaller. life is...

    What turns you on??...

    for me, long hair (at least shoulder length), tat's (within reason), peircings (unexplainable, I just like em), and eyes, but I have to admit, its a huge turn on when the girl shows affection or doesn't insist the guy make the first (or subsequent) move. life is too short to have any regrets

    Goddamn Line Bindings

    well just to throw my $.02 in, the ideas and concepts behind the bindings are great, and a much needed advance in binding technology, however they have had some problems, that they can and cannot control, and it has made for a rough entry into the market. However, they do stand behind their...
