You'll get shot

How can i go to central america or asia without visa? simply i enter in the plain and go?
i am russian and i want to go to asia for exemple
Corky's answer:
Most Asian countries require a visa for entrance.

Entering a country without the proper paperwork is illegal and can result in being arrested, jailed or in some countries simply shot as a suspected smuggler.

It would help if you stopped using steel wool q-tips

Can I use prescribed antibiotic ear drops and Debrox at the same time?
I have a terrible ear infection and was prescribed antibiotic drops which I've been using for a day now. There is a lot of pressure in the ear, though, and you can visibly see pockets of what I would assume is fluid/wax buildup on the side of my face next to my ear. It hurts a lot and I'm tried of popping pain meds that wear off too quickly. Can I use Debrox to clean the ear out while still on the antibiotic drops? The doc said the inside of the ear is very scratched and irritated, so I'm just worried the Debrox might irritate it further and cause more trouble.

Any help?

Your Answer:
I would call your doctor's office and ask. They'll likely be able to give you an answer of the phone without charge or a visit. It's possible the irritation is from excessive cleaning.

Failing that, try the Debrox and see if it causes irritation. Make sure to ALWAYS use the Debrox before using the prescription drops or you'll just wash away the medicine. I'd be surprise if it helps though. Debrox is for wax removal, and it sounds like you have pus coming out of your ear, not wax. The prescription drops are your best bet.

Yes, they know you smoke pot

I Heard Marijuana Can Be Traced In Your Blood/Piss Up To 30 Day Later, Is This Tru?

Corky's somewhat fictional answer:

That's not quite true.

It actually takes 45 to 60 days to be undetectable. 30 is an average, but there are a LOT of people for whom it takes longer. Hair samples can give you away months or years after you stop, depending on how long your hair is.

There are over the counter test kits in many drug stores. While not as sensitive as the ones employers and the police use, if you test positive with one you can guarantee you'll test positive if anyone pays for a high quality lab test.

No, it won't make you blind

Can eye strain and looking a computer screen for too long cause Nystagmus?

Your Answer:
As my optometrist said when I asked the same question:

"You can't damage your eyes by using them"

Your eyes can get tired and you may even develop a slight tick and a headache if you put them under a LOT of strain but it won't damage them. The stereotype of book worms going blind from too many years of reading are just stories.
Source(s):
I have a VERY straining eyeglass prescription and work with computers. My eyes are under a LOT of stress from my job.

Not and keep it off.

Losing weight that fast just causes rebound gain when the fad diet ends. You need a real lifestyle change to keep weight off, and you need to lose it naturally and gradually.

Why do Irishmen dislike the smell of a boiling sheep's head?

Corky got a "Best Answer"!

Why do Irishmen dislike the smell of a boiling sheep's head?
This Irishmen keeps complaining whenever I boil a sheep's head. He even got upset when he opened the pot and saw a sheep head's looking back at him. He says it's disgusting and grim. I just do not get it. What's the difference between eating a steak and eating a sheep's head? If you are going to eat animals, then why not eat the face too?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
Unless you grew up with the dish, the smells from the disintegrating brain and eyes are nauseating. It's like offering a non-Scotsman Haggis or a non-Brit boiled pig's face. Some dishes are far too culturally focused to be eaten outside of their native population.

Asker's Rating:
5 out of 5
Asker's Comment:
I grew up with it and I still think that it's disgusting.

I really should write for TVs House

Question
Should I be worried by this?
Okay, so I have been in a relationship with this guy for 2 weeks, but have known him for a bit longer. He seems perfect, and the chemistry is very strong. All is well, apart from some communication issues. For example, sometimes he won't return my calls, or he will say he will call me back and often does not. His excuse is often that he forgot, or he was busy. I know he is serious about this because we have even talked living together, and a lot of other deep stuff.

Everything is there, but the communication. I mean we talk 3-5 times a week, ranging from 30 min to 3 hours each call. I have confronted him about this in the past, and even asked if there was someone else. He said that there wasn't, and he didn't intend to go with anyone else. Am I over reacting, or should I be worried? I know I have been controlling in past relationships, so I am trying to back off with the control this time. I can't help but worry though.


Your Answer:

Sounds like an intestinal blockage. The weight loss is a pretty clear indication that she's not getting enough nutrition, so a major parasitic infection is also possible. If she's not showing signs of obvious discomfort then it's possible the infected area is already necrotic and nerve dead.

Assuming you want her to live, get her to the emergency room STAT, preferably BEFORE one of her intestines ruptures. Keep in mind there's a chance child services will be called about your medical neglect. Of course you WILL face criminal charges if you keep neglecting this. Dead babies tend to get the DA's attention.
