Every single hour of the day you'll hear the same thing...
Jesus Christ is the only way! or Allah is the light! and neither pary gives any explanation of why we should believe them except for a Koran verse or a Bible verse. Why do they think this junk will convert us?

ok first of all do you think regal tangs(like dory) and clownfish(like nemo) will get along if u put them together in a tank? Because the clownfish is way small will it get eaten by the regal tang? and also i saw this little fish that was half purple and half yellow about half an inch long. does anyone know what that is called? and also does anyone know what a very small fish is called that is red white and blue? (i saw them at the pet store, but some didnt have names on the tanks.) thats what color they looked anyone. and are all tanks REALLY expensive? also do all tanks need filtration and pumps and all that jazz because that seems like alot of work for just a couple of fish. does anyone know if the fish listed above will get along? or will the fight or eat each other? anyone know any small fish that get along(different species) and that coluld be kept together in a small tank?

I have it and I have a question about the refining mask. Do you leave it on overnight? Do you rub it in so the lotion is not visible anymore?

Football FINALLY makes sense......... A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game. They had great seats right
behind their team's bench. After the game, he asked her how she liked theexperience.
"Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and all the big muscles,but I just couldn't understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents."
Dumbfounded, her date asked, "What do you mean?"
"Well, they flipped a coin, one team got it and then for the rest of the game,all they kept screaming was: 'Get the quarterback! Get the quarterback!'
I'm like...Helloooooo? It's only 25 cents!!!!

This is 2007 and some people, the majority infact remark upon any women with muscle as either 'gross' a dude or a freak.

Personal taste aside, do you think women with muscle will ever be respected by the majority public? Yes or no and can you give reasons why please?

Cheers

You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Matthew 7:15-20

A gentle answer deflects anger,
but harsh words make tempers flare.

This verse is found in Proverbs 15 verse 1 in the Bible.
For those of you who are not familiar with God's Word, the Bible, do you see how rich the words of God are?
How true are these words above! All of God's Word is true, and this is just a taster.

Spin this one liberals.cnn.com

Bill and Hillary Clinton liquidated the contents of their blind trust upon learning it contained investments of $5 million to $25 million that could pose conflicts of interest or prove to be embarrassing to her presidential campaign.

The blind trust and a bank account valued in the same range place the Clintons' total wealth at between $10 million and $50 million.

The Clintons looked at the contents of the blind trust in April under instructions from the Office of Government Ethics and sold the assets in May, according to a disclosure form filed Friday. The Clintons had the blind trust since former President Clinton was governor of Arkansas in 1983 and had no control over its transactions.

Once they peered inside it, they discovered it included investments in oil and drug companies, military contractors and Wal-Mart, campaign spokesman Phil Singer said.

The report, filed Friday with the Federal Election Commission and the Office of Government Ethics, provides the most detailed look at the Clintons' holdings as their wealth has expanded since the former president left the White House in 2001.

The new report also shows that the former president made $16 million in speaking fees between January 2006 and Wednesday. So far this year, Bill Clinton has given 34 paid speeches for a total of $5.9 million. (Full story)

Trust included oil, drug companies
The blind trust held stock in pharmaceutical companies, including $250,000-$500,000 in Biogen Idec and Johnson & Johnson and $100,000-$250,000 in Amgen, Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline. It also invested in General Electric and Raytheon, two leading defense contractors. The trust had a varied portfolio, with investments in numerous other companies, including Exxon Mobil, BP Amoco, Walt Disney and eBay.

The report said all the proceeds of the sales are being placed in a cash account. The massive unloading of stock means the Clintons face large capital gains taxes.

Though all the blind trust transactions were handled over the years by a trustee without the Clintons' knowledge, some of the holdings could have been awkward for Hillary Clinton as she pursues the Democratic presidential nomination.

The blind trust held stock worth $100,000-$250,000 in NewsCorp, the parent company of Fox News, which many Democrats have denounced as biased against them. The trust also held stock in Wal-Mart and Wal-Mart de Mexico.

The senator served on the Wal-Mart board from 1986 to 1992, and was close with the Walton family that created the nation's largest retailer. But she has recently called on the company to provide better worker benefits and last year her Senate campaign returned $5,000 to Wal-Mart's political action committee. At the time, Clinton campaign spokeswoman Ann Lewis said the money was returned "because of serious differences with current company practices."

Friday's report comes on the heels of Hillary Clinton's Senate disclosure report, made public Thursday, which only covered activity in 2006 and did not reflect this year's liquidation of the blind trust.

Clinton and other presidential candidates were required to file financial disclosure documents with the Office of Government Ethics by May 15. But Clinton and Republican candidates Mitt Romney and John McCain asked for 45-day extensions because they all had blind trusts that the ethics office demanded be opened.

Campaign: Reporting goes 'above and beyond' requirements
"As a presidential candidate, Sen. Clinton was required to make her assets public," campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said. "As a result, she had to dissolve her blind trust. Upon its dissolution, she and the president chose to go above and beyond what was required of them and liquidate their assets in order to avoid even the hint of a conflict of interest."

When it comes to family affluence, the reports show that the New York senator is the wealthiest of all members of Congress seeking the presidency. Among all presidential candidates, however, Republican Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, stands alone with assets of between $190 million and $250 million. Republican Rudy Giuliani and Democrat John Edwards have each reported assets of about $30 million.

Last year and this year, Bill Clinton earned fees from $100,000 to $450,000 speaking to such corporations as IBM, General Motors, and Cisco Systems, finance giants such as Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers, and trade groups such as the National Association of Realtors and the Mortgage Bankers Association. He also has been paid to speak to nonprofit or charity groups, including the TJ Martell Foundation, which finances leukemia research, Nelson Mandela's Children's Fund and, last March, to the Boys and Girls Club of Los Angeles.

wanted to buy my live-in girlfriend a pair of thong panties. She said that the only way she would even consider wearing a thong is if I bought two of the exact same womens thongs and I wore one of them to bed first. I think I would be willing to go through with it (sems kinda kinky and fun). I just wanted to see what some of the women out there think about it or if anyone has done anything similar. Also any hints on what brand or material of thong that I should buy? She said I'm on my own in picking them out.

When I posted this before, some women said victorias secret is a good choice, but they have tons of thongs which is kind of confusing. I really need links showing exactly what I should be looking for because as a guy, this is all new to me. Thanks.
