Outline[]

03:31 - I'm twenty six. I have a degree in animation, but I decided a year ago that it just wasn't what I wanted to do. I've begun a track for computer science programming, but thoughts of my ever-nearing death have had me thinking of other ways to spend the remaining days on this sweet Earth. I've always wanted to be a pilot (specifically flying helicopters), but training is expensive and the career takes quite some time to move up. Should I go even further into debt to chase my dream, or should I follow the money and spend the rest of my days in a cubicle? -- Feeling Shackled In Chicago

09:06 - I'm talking to my friend who is a lady, and she came to me feeling bummed out. I tried to cheer her up just by being positive and making her laugh, and although she did laugh, she seemed slightly annoyed for a second. Is there a certain chemistry between people that are feeling depressed and those who are trying to cheer them up that creates bad tension, or could I be experiencing a taste of schadenfreude? -- Gmail

17:28 - I recently found out the men I work with make more money than I do. I'm a lady working as a carpenter (cabinet-maker, really) in a small old-fashioned town where the chance of getting hired anywhere else is unlikely. I'm really mad, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you help? -- Quality-Challenged On The East Coast

How long can you wear edible underwear? Plan to surprise the lady for Valentine's Day. Problem is I need to work that day and will not have a chance to change before I see her. Is it okay to wear it for long periods of time. I work in construction.

35:23 - Y - Sent in by Emily Wall, from Yahoo Answers user Drop Dead Gorgeous, who asks:

Well idk how I would ask this but umm. How do u touch a girls boobs? You see. I've touched her boobs before but idk if I did it right. And I got real nervous. Also how do u do it while her shirt is still on?

Should mixed gender swim classes be allowed?

51:10 - Dan Savage leaves

57:31 - My boyfriend of five months recently asked if I would help him deep clean his apartment. He seemed hurt by my immediate response of "clean your own damn place, dude." To be fair, he did not ask me to clean for him, he just asked if I would be willing to help him out as a favor. I have to admit his place is gross, and I would love it if it was less so, but I can't help feeling weird cleaning my boyfriend's toilet. Is my response unreasonable? Should I be down with the idea of helping him clean his place? -- Perplexed In Portland

63:22 - I'm going to be caught in between two jobs in a month or so. I plan on relocating to a different state at the end of the summer, where my girlfriend is starting grad school, and will be continuing my civil engineering career there. However, at my current company people are resigning left and right, indicating a sinking ship. I have a suspicion that I'll have the summer free. My question is this: What can I do for three months that can still put food on the table but has only a short-term commitment. I'm an outdoorsy numbers nerd and amateur tinkerer. -- Future Carnie In Chicago
