  1. someone can try to call ALL of them, but the moment the phase 'investments fail' is uttered, the caller will feel an increasing onset of prompts to cut the conversation short


    these are set up for OTHER purposes


    try it and report your 'revelations' back here, just pls dont say there was NO warning!

  2. As depression is linked to a lack of certain chemicals in the brain, see yr doctor first and ask if Prozac or something like it can help.

    If he refuses, or if Prozac doesn't help, then try one of the above.
