    If there's no such thing as premonitions, how do you explain a dream coming true?

    You remembered the dream, and you acted on it, even is subconsciously, to make it come true. The broken condom was just a coincidence, or maybe you changed your memory of the dream afterwards to match the event. I still don't believe in predicting the future.

    does dreams come true or is it premonition?!!?

    Some dreams may come true, some do not. Sometimes only a small part of the dream comes to pass. My guess is that sometimes it happens by random chance, and people remember that. They forget the times they dreamed about eating lime jello with Winston Churchill, though. And so that leads a...

    Future invention? what would it be?

    Safe, reliable, low cost nuclear fusion. We could have cheap power to get us past our petroleum-based economy. We could also deal with a lot of pollution by eliminating coal and petrochemical power plants. We could eliminate more by feeding the pollutants directly to the reactor.

    Light bulb Started burning and smoking?

    If this was a regular incandescent light bulb - not a compact fluorescent - then my GUESS is that the bulb leaked, and the vacuum failed. This let air into the filament, and it burned up. But that's JUST A GUESS, as I AM NOT AN ELECTRICIAN OR ANY SORT OF EXPERT. So inspect the socket...

    Should my 17 year old daughter have a tooth pulled?

    I'm no dentist or dental expert, so take this for what you think it's worth. Or check with your dentist about it to see what he thinks. After all, he's the expert. If you have the tooth removed, any teeth behind it will tend to cant forward into that space. If her wisdom teeth haven't come...

    1972 VW Beetle - Issues?!?

    Did someone mount the rims backwards? Or are they different rims on that side? This would account for the car pulling. take the car to any decent tire shop, and ask them to look at this. If the wheels look OK, ask to have the alignment checked. That's the next problem I can think of that...

    I'm a 5'7" 175lb 15 year old looking for the right dirt bike for trails,Any...

    Sounds like you're a beginner rider. I would go for something with an engine of around 175-350CC. That's plenty to move you around, big enough to let you ride in traffic, but light enough and small enough for you to pick it up when you put it down. And you will. It's a given. One other...

    I have a Honda commercial mower that hasn't been used in a while and won't...

    I doubt it was brake cleaner. My guess was that it was ether or some other starting fluid. Try giving it a BRIEF spritz in the air cleaner, and see if it will start. You don't need a lot of the stuff. If that doesn't do it, try these tests: Check to see if you have spark. Remove the...

    Where can I buy a cheap hard top for a 1995 Jeep Wrangler?

    Try a junk yard, try e-bay, try J. C. Whitney. But beware of buying the cheapest one you find. It may be priced that low for a reason...

    What are these two buttons in a car?

    Bet your owner's manual could have explained it nicely. But Craig is right. They change the source of the air coming from the vents and heaters. Recirculating the air (the arrow with the loop) is good in winter, since the air is already warmer than that from outside, and it's already dryer...

    hey does this seem normal to anyone?

    It's hard to say. You may have been at a long distance from them, or at an odd angle, or misinterpreted what you saw. Or they may have been acrobatic planes. Some planes can turn very sharply, and if they were a distance away, it might look like they were stopping and then reversing...

    When was the last time you actually had something healthy to eat?

    Just had an apple, just about to have some water. Close enough?
