Sending you Encouragement

Posted by Susan on Jul 27 2008 | Quotes & Inspiration

To my dear associates, friends and families,

I’d like to share a really cool website with you. I stumbled across it a week ago and the concept inspired me to forward it to you because I think you’ll appreciate its simplicity and meaning.

It’s called The Encouragement Foundation and it was launched this month (www.theencouragementfoundation.com.au). Its purpose is to do just that, encourage people. The simple concept is that you receive encouragement from them, together you encourage others through you and excite people about furthering their life long learning skills. Continue Reading »

Why men don’t write advice columns

Posted by Susan on Jul 27 2008 | Raunchy Stuff

Dear Walter,

I hope you can help me here. The other day, I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn’t driven more than a mile down the road when the engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband’s help.

When I got home I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom with the neighbor girl. I am 32, my husband is 34, and the neighbor girl is 22. We have been married for ten years.

When I confronted him, he broke down and admitted that they had been having an affair for the past six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him. He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. He won’t go to counseling and! I’m afraid I can’t get through to him anymore.

Can you please help?

Sincerely, Sheila

******************************

Dear Sheila:

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the vacuum pipes and hoses on the intake manifold and also check all grounding wires. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber.

I hope this helps.

Walter
