Anyone know why or how surnames came about. I assume we all had a first name but who decided that we should have surnames and that name would be for the man that when he married, his wife would take that name and all their children would also bear that name?

Just one of the weird things that goes through my head and it's been bugging me for a couple of days, sad, I know.

I have never heard of the Xendi Race or an alien attack on Earth on none of the Star Trek television series other that "Enterprise." Was it a time paradox thing or what?

My mother and father have moved 5 hours away, my sisters are busy with their own life, and my friends have their own thing to do. So how can I find a dress, get flowers, find a chapel, get the reception done, etc. all on my own. Any advice?

Do you think society is accepting too much and perhaps these kids need better discipline by their parents? What do you think started all these kids threatening to shoot up their schools? We have already had 2 or 3 schools closed up for a day because of threatening notes put in the bathrooms or called in the schools threatening another Virginia like incident. Kids seem to be acting out evil these days, beating each other up in the cafeteria, bringing guns to school, forcing police officers to walk the halls to manage the crime in the classroom.. Who is responsible for all this?

I have a bottom sucker tank cleaner, brown, flat with wide mouth it sticks to the surface with. No idea what it’s called. Recently I noticed that it’s loosing it’s top skin in patches. I am treating the entire fish tank for a fungus because of it but is it correct? I also have another cleaner, angel fish, orange platy( not sure what it’s called either) and a gurami (flat local fish, gray with white spots.) All of them are over three years old. Should I treat entire tank or just sick fish?

Hmm let's see... .
2005 - UN Secretary General Kofi Annan uses his influence to award the biggest Oil-For-Food programme contract to a Swiss firm called Cotecna. Annan's son Kojo works for the firm. It is revealed that the Oil-For-Food programme in Iraq loses $21 billion, funneling illicit money into the hands of despot Saddam Hussein. Outraged people who call for Annan's resignation are promptly dismissed by the indignant Left as "swift boaters" and "witch hunters" who are just "out to get" poor Kofi.

Compare:
2007- World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz uses his influence to get his girlfriend, bank employee Shaha Riza, a promotion to a plumb job. The now outraged Left demands Wolfowitz's resignation, because he is a "corrupt neocon Zionist"

Wheres the proportionality?
