Question:
I would like to know the cheapest insurance........otherwise i will just go on my dad's insurance
Answer:
If that is around Madison, or Wausau I would recommend American Family, or State Farm.. They are about the cheapest you will find in this area... But AIG auto isn't to bad either... I would suggest going to www.amfam.com and getting a quote on their website, but to get a cheaper quote from them I would contact one of there agents.. Or go to www.statefarm.com... OR for AIG www.aigauto.com... Hope this helps...

Answer:
I don't live in Wiconson
Where is Wisconsin?
*************************************
Way to go AussieGIRL♥!
amazing how you got a thumb down because you don't know where it is and asked about it. Yet... when we asked a question and Americans don't know places in the world are, and are told they are ignorant they answered back with the attitude of "they don't know and they don't care that they don't know" (yet they expect anyone to come on Y!A to know where Wisconsin is.)
(NOT all Americans are like this - but way too many who comes here really don't know about the world. One American told me - he lives in Nebraska and was on holiday in Florida...and some people he met in Florida DIDN'T know where Nebraska was!! - How sad!)

Ok i need a car loan but my parents have really bad credit and both of them are on social security and don't?
Question:
and don't work and i am on social security i am getting 700 a month and i need a car but don't got the money at the time all i have is 500 in the bank and i am waiting for the next check to come in but i want to get a decent car and my parents already have a loan out for them where can i get a loan, i live in adams wisconsin
Answer:
I'd say that a new car isn't in your favor. There are plenty of car loans out there for the respective buyer. Even if you have none or little credit you can get a loan. However, most of these loans require some sort of down payment or even collateral (Often the car is not enough). Being on social security does not help your chances. Most often you will have to pay VERY high interest rates and monthly payments. Your best bet is to go to a 'Buy here' and 'Pay Here' Places.

Is 154,000 miles on a ford ranger alot?
Question:
I want to buy a used cars from a private dealer in adams wisconsin and it has a 154,000 miles on it and it is a ford ranger i am wondering if i should buy it and how long would it last
It is a 1986 4x4
Answer:
I have a 1993 ranger that just hit 200,000 miles. I have had this truck since 1994. The only things I have had to do were replace egr valve a couple of years ago to pass emissions, replaced timing belt at about 150,000, and replaced clutch at about 180,000.
It has been the most dependable vehicle I have ever owned.

whats the best time to see the Meteor Shower tonight?
Question:
i live in Wisconsin, adams, friendship. was wondering when my best chance will be, if any to see the meteor showers.?
Answer:
Sundown is about 8:45. It's dark by 9:45. Start then. I went out last night. Saw 16 Perseid meteors and 9 non-Perseid meteors. You can tell by seeing if they seem to come from the constellation Perseus, just below the sideways W - Cassiopeia.
The shower is supposed to get better after midnight. But the midnight to 2 AM didn't seem to be better than the 10:30 to midnight.
Should be at least some Perseid meteors through the weekend.

I need help i am 16 with .5 credits and my local school i would need 26 credits to graduate.......?
Question:
and i wouldnt graduate until i am 21 or 22 and i need to go to school but i will not wait that long and the local tech colloge only accecpts people that have completed the 10th grade and i have not even started and i can not afford online homeschooling like i was doing i really need some help this is really stressing me out can someone point me in the right direction? PLEASE? i live in adams, wisconsin
this is too derek it is a really long story has nothing to do with drugs or adhd i moved alot really long story and now i am where i am for a while soo i want to get my diploma as soon as possible
and if i did do homeschooling i dont know where to go i cant afford online homeschooling anymore
Answer:
You probably have the option to just homeschool for now and don't worry about a diploma or work out with your parents what you need to do to get a diploma through homeschooling. It doesn't have to be online. A different option, if a high school diploma is just really out of reach by the time you're 18 or 19, is to study what you need to study to get a GED. Remain as a homeschooler, studying whatever you need to study in WI, but work towards your GED.
Of course, another option would be to go to school, do the credits you can during the year and then take advantage of any Saturday school, evening classes or summer school programs that are available. If you can work hard, you may not need to graduate as late as 21 or 22.
ADDED:
I don't think you understand what homeschooling really is. You don't have to go anywhere, you don't have to sign up with anything, you don't pay. You can simply do your education at home. Your parents are the official supervisors. You or your parents pick the textbooks, the subject matter to study, etc. Check here http://www.homeschooling-wpa.org/handbook/guide.shtml for more information about homeschooling, as seen by the government, where you live.

I am 16 turning 17 and i am starting to get my life back together and i only have a half a credit. Graduation?
Question:
i need to graduate faster i am willing to do anything i am not curently in school i need help on how to graduate in lets say a year or soo.......You guys might say i am crazy but if you would understand my home life you would understand this.......serious answers though and i would prefer a a highschool diploma not a g.e.d i live in adams, wisconsin
Answer:
Look for a Charter school they let you work at your own pace, they give you packages to do and after each package you do a test and if you pass the test you get the credit, you can finish a package every sis weeks and get your credit faster that way, each package is equivalent at one semester in normal high schools, If you go to "normal" school, it will take you at least 3 1/2 years even with summer school.
Charter schools are free, the state pays for them some use computers to do all the work and some use the traditional classroom setting with the teacher an all.
All you need to registrar is a copy of your birth certificate and if you can get the transcript for that credit you got that will be very helpful since in the transcript is you "state number" for the department of education that is not your high school ID number that number is given to you when you register to kindergarten and stays with you all the way to 12th grade.
good luck and I admire you for your interest in better your life.
No matter how bad your living situation is or has been you can get out of it with a better education.
Go for it, I wish you luck and I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU, YOU SHOULD BE TOO.
Virginia.
P.S.Don't let anybody kill your dream, remember, IT CAN BE DONE

Ok i need a auto loan but my parents have really bad credit and both of them are on social security and dont?
Question:
and dont work and i am on social security i am getting 700 a month and i need a car but dont got the money at the time all i have is 500 in the bank and i am waiting for the next check to come in but i want to get a decent car and my parents already have a loan out for them where can i get a loan, i live in adams wisconsin
i am also 16 and need them to cosighn
Answer:
I'd say that a new car isn't in your favor. There are plenty of auto loans out there for the respective buyer. Even if you have none or little credit you can get a loan. However, most of these loans require some sort of down payment or even collateral (Often the car is not enough). Being on social security does not help your chances. Most often you will have to pay VERY high interest rates and monthly payments. Your best bet is to go to a 'Buy here' and 'Pay Here' Places.
Then with most (if not all) auto loans you are required to get full coverage, insurance is sometimes based on credit as well. And these payments will be high. $700 a month may not even cover the cost to pay all the payments. Your best bet is buying from a private buyer, ie a friend or neighbor. They would be more lenient on payment times possibly.
If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to e-mail me and I could give you more counseling.

Ginko Biloba?
Question:
I want to plant some Ginko Biloba trees in Adams County Wisconsin. I would like to know if they would survive the harsh Wisconsin climate. There is no real dirt only sand, and we only go there once or twice a week so watering would only occour once a week for 3 days. Summers are sweltering and winters are cold. Right now its - 45 C and at -50 C, trees begin to shatter. In conclusion, i read that ginko's are vey resiliant, but would they be able to survive Wisconsin. Professional answers would be much appreciated. Thanks
Im especially intrested in its hardiness. I would need to know if it would survive in the climate
Answer:
hardy to zone 4.all but the northern third of wis. performing well in minn. prefers sandy,deep,moderately moist soil,but grows in almost any situation

What do you think of this Presidential Candidates Health Plan?
Question:
The Candidate doesn't want to scrap employer-based insurance. He would keep part of the tax deduction in place.
- Choice. About half of those with employer-financed health insurance have a choice of exactly one plan -- and that plan is often designed to suit the needs of the employer, not the employee. In contrast, under the Candidates proposal, families could opt out and join another plan -- perhaps offered by their church, union or trade association -- if it better suited their needs.
- Portability. Presently, changing jobs means changing health plans and, often, family doctors. It also means that if a worker loses his job, he can also lose his health insurance. Under The Candidates plan, job status wouldn't necessarily affect health coverage.
- Labor mobility. By freeing workers of the need to stay in a job to keep their health insurance, The Candidates plan would help create a more flexible workforce. A study by University of Wisconsin economist Scott Adams found that 20% to 30% of nonelderly men worry enough about losing their health benefits that they stay in jobs they would otherwise leave.
This is just a portion of the idea - but - Whose plan is it?
Answer:
i had written a answer to the health plan. I am just exhausted over this.
Just don't repeat Canada. Read my post on it, I don't want it to happen to the USA as I experienced myself in Toronto.

7. Minnesota- Ted Ginn Jr, WR, Ohio State
8.Houston- Laron Landry, S, LSU
9. Miami- Levi Brown, OL, Penn State
10. Atlanta- Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
Answer:

2. Quinn might not go at #2, they need a O-lineman, because kitna's turnovers were because of bad protection...but you never know with matt millen
3. i can see that happening
4. i totally agree with this one
5. i think he will be picked up by the Lions, but if he isn't he will go to the cardinals
6. eh...?
7. Minnesota is not in dire need of a WR.
8. Houston will want to sure up their O-line
9. Miami is not in dire need of a O-lineman, they need a skill position and will try to get one here
10. yea, good pick here

How does my mock draft 14.0 look for you team, any changes?
Question:
1/ Oakland Raiders JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU
2/ Detroit Lions Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia
3/ Cleveland Browns Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame
4/ Tampa Bay Buccaneers Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson
5/ Arizona Cardinals Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin
6/ Washington Redskins LaRon Landry, S, LSU
7/ Minnesota Vikings Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma
8/ Atlanta Falcons (from Houston) Levi Brown, OT, Penn State
9/ Miami Dolphins Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville
10/ Houston Texans (from Atlanta) Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
11/ San Francisco 49ers Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska
12/ Buffalo Bills Patrick Willis, LB, Ole Miss
13/ St. Louis Rams Leon Hall, CB, Michigan
14/ Carolina Panthers Alan Branch, DT, Michigan
15/ Pittsburgh Steelers Paul Posluszny, LB, Penn State
16/ Green Bay Packers Marshawn Lynch, RB, California
17/ Jacksonville Jaguars Reggie Nelson, S, Florida
18/ Cincinnati Bengals Jon Beason, OLB, Miami
19/ Tennessee Titans Robert Meachem, WR, Tennessee
20/ New York Giants Chris Houston CB Arkansas

25/ New York Jets Greg Olsen, TE, Miami
26/ Philadelphia Eagles Aaron Ross, CB, Texas
27/ New Orleans Saints LaMarr Woodley, LB, Michigan
28/ New England Patriots Brandon Meriweather, CB, Miami
29/ Baltimore Ravens Joe Staley, OT, Central Michigan
30/ San Diego Chargers Dwayne Bowe, WR, Louisiana State
31/ Chicago Bears Anthony Spencer, LB, Purdue
32/ Indianapolis Colts Justin Harrell DT Tennessee
Thanks Rome, have any supporting material (link) that says they are looking that way?
Answer:
This looks good as a whole but there are a few things to take into consideration.
1. Pittsburgh has expressed a huge ammount of intrest in Darelle Revis and he will not slip to the Pats.
2. In that case Polouszny slips to the Bengals and Beason will go to the Patriots as their Linebackers are getting old.
3. Tampa loves Calvin way too much and I personall see them swapping picks with the Lions to insure they get him. Lions will then take Gaines Adams.
4. Joe Staley may go to the Chiefs if you see them taking a lineman, Joe Staley is my personal pick, but they really could use a #1 receiver. Meachum, Bowe, and Ginn all possiblities.
5. I dont know why but teams love to take TE's too ealry so the Pathers or Green Bay may reach for Greg Olsen.
6. The Eagles have no real needs and will go with the best player on the board. So good call there, although they may want to add stability to an injury prone line.
*** Frayne its 3 wideouts in 5 years . . . Mike Williams, Roy Williams, and Charles Rogers. Harrington and Ernie Sims went somewhere in between.
