give it time, I'm sure its fine.. some are more violent than others too... just dont touch it till it gets around 1-2 bubbles per minute...
Nope. Just wait about a week or so. The beer knows what to do. Try not to worry about it. You know the old saying, "A watched airlock never blurps".
If you are absolutely dying to know if it's ok, you can take a hydrometer reading in a day or two. But, I'd let it sit until next weekend, and then start worrying if necessary.

That's fine, but that's not a yeast starter. You rehydrated your yeast, so we know it was a package of dry yeast. That's what I do when I use dry yeast.
Do a search for "yeast starter"- there are threads on this subject from today. That's what Todd was asking you about.

Try and just wait to mess with it. Its 99.9% likely to be just fine and opening it wont help anything besides letting nasties in. I was in your same shoes last week and wish i would have left it alone.
