why does it seem that there are so much abuse in familys and then when some one says something the law does not do a thing.

We're willing to do anything pretty much (well, anything short of illegal).....I speak broken Italian, but my friend don't really speak any. We have a whole year before we arrive in Roma and we have enough money to get by for a few months so we have that long to search for a job of any kind. I have great knowledge of Rome and its history (I took Latin for 3 years and I have found out everything I can about Italy) so I'm hoping that will help somehow. We will be there legaly. So, do you have any advice for us or anything? Thanks. Oh, and if its of any importance we'll be 19 at the time and we are two American females. Thanks again!

Mark Morice took a neighbor's boat in the aftermath of Katrina and rescued over 200 people who were stranded. (Owners of the boat had evacuated-so no he did not get their permission.) He saw an opportunity to help his fellow man, and now he is being sued....

I would think this boat was damaged during the storm or could've been valdalized in the days that followed, but in MHO, this man is a hero.This kind of greed makes me want to puke!

Thoughts?

The alarm goes off, we hit the snooze and sleep for another 10 minutes. He stays up for days on end. We take a warm shower to help you wake up. He goes days or weeks without running water. We complain of a "headache", and call in sick. He gets shot at as others are hit, and keeps moving forward. We put on anti war/don't support the troops shirt, and go meet up with friends. He still fights for your right to wear that shirt. We make sure our cell phones are in our pockets. He clutches the cross hanging on his chain next to his dog tags. We talk trash about our "buddies" that aren't with us. He knows he may not see some of his buddies again, We walk down the beach, staring at all the pretty girls. He walks the streets, searching for insurgents and terrorists. We complain about how hot it is. He wears his heavy gear, not daring to take off his helmet to wipe his brow.
We go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got our order wrong. He doesn't get to eat today. The maid makes our bed and washes our clothes.
He wears the same things for weeks, but makes sure his weapons are clean. We go to the mall and get our hair redone.
He doesn't have time to brush his teeth today.
We're angry because a class ran 5 minutes over.
He's told he will be held over an extra 2 months. We call our significant others and set a date for tonight. He waits for the mail to see if there is a letter from home. We hug and kiss our significant others, like you do everyday. He holds his letter close and smells his love's perfume. We roll our eyes as a baby cries
He gets a letter with pictures of his new child, and wonders if they'll ever meet
We criticize our government, and say that war never solves anything.
He sees the innocent tortured and killed by their own people and remembers why he is fighting. We hear the jokes about the war, and make fun of men like him.
He hears the gunfire, bombs and screams of the wounded. We see only what the media wants us to see.
He sees the broken bodies lying around him.
We are asked to go to the store by our parents. We don't. He does exactly what he is told.
We stay at home and watch TV.
He takes whatever time he is given to call, write home, sleep, and eat
We crawl into our soft bed, with down pillows, andget comfortable.
He crawls under a tank for shade and a 5 minutenap, only to be woken by gunfire.
We sit there and judge him, saying the world is probably a worse place because of men like him.
If only there were more men like him!
If you support your troops, re-post this.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American G. I.
One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

I just read the trade paperback, "The Ultimates 2", and near the beginning of the story, it suggests that Quicksilver is in an intimate relationship with Scarlet Witch.

For those of you who don't know, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are brother and sister, the children of Magneto. Did anyone else get the inference that something twisted was going on?

Again, I'm only talking about the Ultimate universe.

I would love to have a private pool. It has to be rather large, as I like to swim laps. I don't even want to think about the cost of having one built. Could I do it myself?

A guy applies for a job at a Government Department.

The interviewer asks, "Are you disabled in any way?"
"Yes!" the guy says, "...a landmine blew my testicles away!"
"O.K. you're hired!" the interviewer announces, "Working hours are from 8 till 5 o'clock. Make sure you're here by 10 every morning!" Puzzled the guy says "8 till 5, why do you want me to come in only at 10?"
"This is a government job," the interviewer says. The first two hours we just sit around scratching our balls.......no point in you coming in for that....!"

I went out with my friend's brother on friday night.... we had hung out in group situations before a few times, and so he asked me to dinner. We had a great time, met up with friends after dinner and stayed out all night. I thought it went perfect, and we had a nice kiss good night. He came by the next day to say hello for a few minutes because he was nearby. We both have been nervous but excited around eachother since we met, and i think there's real chemistry... SO since I'm a dork, I decided to give him a small thank you for dinner.... I wrote out this quote that I really like, and wrote "thank you for dinner, and for making me laugh.... I'm glad we met." on the back of the quote. He seemed really stoked when I gave it to him, and he called later that night, but the phone got disconnected. Then he sends a text saying "sorry about the phone, I don't know what to make of your note..." Did I screw things up?? I thought it was a nice way to say thanks, but now I'm wondering......

I ask this question because I recently came across a disturbing answer to a question, that essentially said blacks should move on and stop living in the past. NEWS FLASH racism is far from in the past its still occuring and quite prevalent in today's society! Insights on this topic would be appreciated.

I keep getting responses to my questions from men who seem to think that if a woman wants a man she is dating to do a little something for her, she is a taker. What happened to the days where men respected the women in their lives and were concerned with their well being? It seems like all men is free sex with no obligation. If I want a guy I met a while back to offer me a ride because I find myself in a situation where I have no choice, everyone tells me that I shouldn't expect it because we haven't known each other long enough but the same guy is trying to get cozy with me on the third date. Why would I want to get physical with a guy who doesn't care about my well being? Guys say I shouldn't judge a guy by his wallet but at the same time they turn around and reject me because I don't have a college degree and a big job? I thought money wasn't important? It sounds like guys are golddiggers. Are there any gentlemen left in the world or are they all looking for free sex??

My parents are argueing downstairs and while i was down there my mum started throwing plates against the wall. She went upstairs and i comforted her, but she said she's upset because my dad never talks to her and he ignores her. So she went downstairs a moment ago and started cleaning up, now i can hear my dad shouting. My dad cheated on my mum a couple of years ago and things have been going downhill since. He said he's going to leave her as soon as possible. They've been married for 25 years, i'm so upset, can i do anything apart from encourage them to talk? They argue a lot but never ever has my dad said he's going to leave her especially in front of me, he says he can't stand her anymore. I don't know what to do. please help me.
