??
United Flight Attendant announced, "People, people we're not picking out furniture here, find a seat and get in it!

 ? ? ?On landing, the stewardess said, "Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure it's something we'd like to have. "

 ? ? ?"There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane"

 ? ? ?An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while the Passengers exited, smile, and give them a "Thanks for flying our airline." He said that, in light of his bad landing, he had a hard time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would have a smart comment. Finally everyone had gotten off except for a little old lady walking with a cane. She said, "Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question?" "Why, no, Ma'am," said the pilot. "What is it?" The little old lady said, "Did we land, or were we shot down?"

As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella, ?WHOA!"

After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced, "Please take care when opening the overhead compartments because sure as hell everything has shifted after a landing like that."

Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing: "We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal."

Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo , Texas , on a particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the Captain was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo . Please remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate!"
"Your seat cushions can be used for flotation; and, in the event of an emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with our compliments."

"As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses......except for that gentleman over there."

Heard on Southwest Airlines just after a very hard landing in Salt Lake City - The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, "That was quite a bump, and I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to tell you it wasn't the airline's fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault, it wasn't the flight attendant's fault, it was the asphalt."

After a real crusher of a landing in Phoenix , the attendant came on with, "Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Capt. Crash and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are silenced, we'll open the door and you can pick your way through the wreckage to the terminal."

Part of a flight attendant's arrival announcement: "We'd like to thank you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the insane urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal tube, we hope you'll think of US Airways."

Heard on a Southwest Airline flight - "Ladies and gentlemen, if you wish to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing and if you can light 'em, you can smoke 'em."

A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport . After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles . The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax... OH, MY GOD!" ?Silence followed, and after a few minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my pants!" A passenger in Coach yelled, "That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!"?

I drive a 5-speed '87 Firebird T/A ... what should and shouldn't I do? What can I avoid doing (other than riding the clutch and grinding the gears) that will hurt the car? What CAN I do to make it a smoother ride? I have my on and off days ... some people tell me to press the clutch all the way down when shifting, others say to find the "catch point" or the sweet spot.

Help me out here.

I have a problem with binge-eating. Lately I've had my eating under control and was able to lose about 12 pounds, but last night I just was really upset and binged. This morning I weighed myself and saw that I had gained 7 pounds of the 12 back--overnight! How did this happen? How much of the 7 pounds could be fat? And how can I make my weight go back down?

the sentence is:

Perhaps most importantly, I have a genuine drive to help people, paired with sincere empathy and compassion.

I want to replace the word "paired" because doesn't pair generally mean "two"?

Any suggestions?
Thanks

It isn't worth having in my opinion if I have to conform to a specific set of ideals that I honestly do not have the ability to believe, just in order to avoid burning in hell for eternity.

Why did god give me free will if he knew I was going to end up going to hell anyway, i would rather have never existed than go to Hell, So why did god do me this terrible disfavor of creating me? He is all knowing right? So of course he knew i was destined to be an atheist and destined to be in Hell.

*PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO GET A DIVORCE, COUNSELING, OR THAT I HAVE LOW SELF-ESTEEM. I NEED SOME REAL ADVICE AND WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE THAT* My husband has cheated on me before but has now moved out of state with me away from everyone that we know and has vowed never to do it again. I believe he may be addicted to not just sex, but attention from other women. He is 23 and yes I know, probably to young to be married, but the facts are we are married and do not want to be divorced. I know that in his heart he truly does not want to cheat on me again, but I am starting to see him getting antsy and the wheels in his head are turning deciding what he wants to do. I know he has not cheated yet and that I can't make him not cheat on me again, but for the people who have thought about cheating on their spouse and either did it or didn't, what could your spouse have done to make you not take that next step into cheating?

Yesterday I asked a question that insinuated that people should be compassionate, nonjudgmental, and loving toward one another. I pointed out that the Bible said that God is love; that we are to love God; and that we are to love people even if they hate us. I said do not Judge others even as Christ told us from his own mouth, if we are to believe the scriptures.

The answers came back very positive for the most part but with one being very abrasive. I was called a liar.
To prove my point I quoted scriptures.

1John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

John 12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

After all this I was told that I worked for Satan.

This morning I received a violation notice for my question and it was deleted.
WOOT!
Thank God I’m on the right track!
The message of love from God must be getting through.

If we had a democrat president and he made all the same decissions concerning the war how would the american public respond? The largest part of the media is of course liberal based. Would it all been reported differently? Do you really think that today you would have the same attitude?

Media is a powerful tool. Perception is stronger than fact. I dont think you would feel the same way because I really feel it would of been reported differently. Unfortunately many never seek the facts, they accept the media reports.
