Could I change my last name for the cover of my autobiography?

I don't like my last name, but I cannot legally change it because I want my legal name to be the same as my son's and he doesn't want to have his name changed which I will not force him to do. (He is 11).

Crime in Katy?

Anytime you live in a heavily populated area, you're going to have to worry about crime. But, by worrying I just mean being aware of your surroundings and taking proper precautions--both of which, you're already doing. So, just know that you're doing what you can. Don't worry yourself into such a tizzy, because you'll be paranoid and miserable all the time. Yes, it's possible to be the victim of crime anywhere, but it's not worth worrying over. I'd get off the crime message boards if I were you. And just be smart about keeping yourself safe.

My ear sometimes makes crackling/fluttering sounds when I use speakers?

I feel and hear a fluttering/crackling in my ear when I am using speakers (usually a Nintendo DS when this happens). Whether or not I am using headphones seems to be irrelevant. This only occurs in my right ear, and only for about 30 minutes or so. The problem seems to have no patterns or tendencies in its occurrences other than when I am using speakers. This has been a problem for about 2 years. Any ideas?

What kind of trouble would I get in if by the Coast Guard for swimming from Pelee Island to South B Island?

uming I got caught. And uming I don't drown. And don't bother telling me not to try it. I'm a great swimmer and I know how rough the seas there can be, I've been there by boat. Somebody's got to be the first one to do it. I'm gonna die someday anyway, if I drown, the planet will still revolve. But I won't drown anyway, I'll make it. I'm more concerned about getting plowed over by the Rocket or getting caught by Canadian or US Coast Guard.

She rejected me. How do I get her back??

wow that is a bummer same thing happened to me i'm a freshman i college now but I was shy and stuff around this girl at first but eventually I figured wtf and i kust stepped up and now we are way close almost togetherbut back to you. Since you have only been back to school and seen her in person for a few days give it a little time to see if your relationship sparks back up again and if it doesn't... well your in college and theres plenty of good girls out there that you can find... and that may make her think of what she is missing out on so she will think of you.... hopefully this makes sense to you but whatever you do bro stay happy don't get down on yourself

Object released at equator falls towards Earth due to gravity, where is magnetic force acting on it?

Depends if the object contains any magnetic material. I would guess that if it did, the magnetic force would be acting South. Even though needles etc point to the North pole, the force is actually reversed and is coming from the South Pole.
