How to fix the middle armrest and glove compartment in a Chevy Malibu?

So when my husband buys a new car he'll be giving me his 1998 Chevy Malibu (um...yay?) It runs okay and I only really need it to make short runs to the store, laundromat, whatever. But I would like to spruce it up a little before I get it. Last year we had a break-in. There was nothing to take (NOT EVEN THE STEREO!) but the middle armrest/storage compartment was ripped off of its hinges and the handle to the glove compartment was broken off. The glove compartment isn't that big of a deal but the armrest is literally a hazard. If I brake too hard, it goes forward and throws the car into neutral. Can these things be fixed? And if so, how?

Can you take bottled water & hamburgers in your pants pockets to 6 Flags?

They only briefly search you. Be sure to hide that stuff good! As long as theres no metal in the packing of the food your good. Although if they suspect something suspicious they are allowed to do a strip search anytime they want.

Why do my shoulders and upper back hurt?

Well I haven't done anything to hurt them. Whenever I move my arms back it starts hurting my shoulders and my upper Back and when I lean forward my back tightens or tenses idk. Could it have been caused from sleeping the wrong way? And now it hurts even more to walk. I slept sideways so idk if that's the problem? Becase after sleeping sideways I woke up and now I'm in even more pain. The pains mostly on my upper back.

My mom emptied my bank account, will I ever see my money again?

My mom works for the state, and when I began working at the age of 16, we opened an account at the State Employee's Credit Union because of the awesome rates. The only thing was that her name had to be on one of my accounts for me to be eligible for the account. I opened a checking account in my name, and both of our names were on my savings account. Fast forward three years later, and at 19, I had roughly $10,000 in the bank. Less than $200 of it was in my checking account, because I like to keep my savings and make sure I draw as much interest as possible. My mother and I got into an argument this morning over online shopping. Although I'm an adult, and making smart purchases and things, she decides that to "teach me a lesson" she is going to empty out my bank account. I haven't had the opportunity to speak with my mother yet, but as far as I am concerned, I have been stolen from. My hard earned money has been taken away from me. I know the law is a little messed up when it comes to joint accounts, but is there any way I could possibly get my money back? I love my mom very much, and the thought of taking her to court seems unreal. I feel hurt and betrayed, and I'm not sure what I need to do. Either way, I am really going to need my money back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If the headgasket in a car has been fixed, will the oil dipstick look like chocolate milkshake?

I inspected a car today ( Renault Clio 1.2 1999) The owner said that he fixed that headgasket but when I checked the oil dipstick it has rusty look and there is barely black colour of oil there. He claimed that will take time for it to get to its original colour. However, I wasn't convinced but since I'm no mechanic I couldn't argue that either. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Do women like men who are forward?

Like if someone were to call them "babe" in early texts, or one the first or second date hold hands wiht them, etc. I know women like confident men but i think there is a difference between being forward and confident.
