I live in an area where everyone seems to be biased...and it's getting on my nerves. Though it may seem normal to hear a teenager call something they don't like "gay and retarded", I still hate it every time I hear it.

Number one, I hate gay bashing. I, personally, think it's a terrible thing to do...it's these people's own opinions who they're attracted to, and they don't deserve to be trashed on all the time.

Number two, I know what it's like to have a mental disorder...meaning I hate it when people call others "retards" or "retarded". It's horrible. It's not someone's fault if they have one, and they don't deserve to be made fun of.

My question is, why are people so biased in this world? If you use those words, I'd appreciate it if you'd tell me why you use them and what your opinion on the matter is.

I'm graduating high school and people are starting to ask me what I'd like as a gift. My natural response is money because I can't think of anything else that'd be appropriate, considering it isn't christmas or my birthday. I need more ideas about what to ask for. Got any ideas?

Rental car agency is Enterprise. What if they do the walk around with you and all is well, no damage...then upon washing or something, they find a door ding or scrape or something small, can they call you at a later time about it? Potentially, it could have happened after the car was out of your hands, if it wasn't noticed during the "walk around," right? Or no?

Border agents recruited for Iraq duty

A military contractor is recruiting current and former agents with the U.S. Border Patrol to teach Iraqis how to secure their national borders.

The U.S. State Department has asked Virginia-based DynCorp International to find 120 people with Customs and Border Enforcement experience to go to Iraq for the training.

The company already has 700 police trainers in Iraq. The department made the request for border security trainers in late March.

Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano said she was worried that DynCorp's effort is distracting from security along the U.S.-Mexico border. She and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson wrote President Bush this week to say the deal "makes no sense."

"We should be focused on supporting our nation's security efforts along the Mexican and Canadian border instead of hampering (the Customs and Border Patrol) by sending our best agents to a war zone in Iraq," the governors wrote.

Agent Shannon Stevens, a Border Patrol spokeswoman, said the number of personnel DynCorp is looking for is "a very small number compared to the agents we have."

DynCorp is offering recruits $134,100 for a one-year stay, plus a $25,000 signing bonus. The first $90,000 in income is tax free, and housing and food are free, company spokesman Gregory Lagana said.

Border Patrol agents with at least two years' experience make roughly $55,000.

Arizona's Tucson sector employs 2,600 agents, and there are more than 13,350 nationwide

Can a relationship survive cheating if I can't get over it. I'm trying. She said it wasn't anything I did, but it's hard not to take it personal when the person you'd die for chooses to have sex with another man.

I had to leave town a lot and she said she was lonely. I was lonely too but didn't run into another woman's arms.

Just curious. I am tempted to ask a friend about a rumor, but since she talks like there is nothing wrong-I don't want to piss her off. I think I should just wait and see. What do you think?..

He said there were writers who would use their imagination and right histories as a hobby.
Those histories were read by the people just like today we read books, and like the Greeks used to write histories today known as Greek Mythology.

One day these chinese commerce traders visited this Jew lands and sell all their goodies, as time pass the chines start reading those magic histories just like regular novels to entertain them selves.

1 day an important Jew asked the chinese how they form such a big nation without slaves and yet everyone was living in comfort., the chiness respond,,by doing business.
The jew asked them to teach him how to develop this business., the Chiness reply you can star by make your people to beliave those books were dictated by a superior God. we sold the printer to Greeks now they making good business & building beautiful palaces.
We can sell you the printer, but print all the books in one & charge people while you read it
