I have a learning disability and never did good on tests.I read all the time and yet I was told to get
a job where reading skills are not important.That
was a insult to me.When I went through bureau
on vocational rehabilitation they told me forget
college or any higher education,go to trade school.
I personally do not feel a trade would be a good match for me,I hate working with my hands,I
would rather work using my mind.There is no
way I will touch a trade school.I read all the time,
it was tests that were my stumbling block.
Why should I do something I do not want to do?

I used to get a magnifying glass & focus the sun onto ants & watch them squirm & shrivel up & die. Or sometimes I'd squirt washing up liquid around them in a small circle & watch them try to escape. Then I'd put a big blob of it on them & watch them move in s l o w m o t i o n.....
Nasty.

What horrid things did you do?
Go on, we've all done them...

Havent we? :-(

I could hear him in there giggling, so I stopped talking for a second so I could hear better and I could tell he was laughing. I would like to ask him about this and confront him. What do you think?

In an effort to be more respectful to Christians and believers, I'm doing my best to balance my sarcasm and cynicism with kind remarks. Unfortunately, I find a few people harshing that mellow.

"not sure where the comedy comes in? sounds like r&s, where most of the contributors are neither...

can't keep the non-believers out because it would be politically incorrect, so of course this is a forum for whatever."

Why is that necessary?

If anyone complains about my decision to post this question, I want to make it clear that it's important to point out the rude comments. It serves multiple purposes, but mostly, it calls out the people who make comments like this.

I encourage anyone to call out anything I've said that is hateful or rude. Mind you, don't ask me to stop being sarcastic and cynical. Those are personality traits. But hatefulness or rudeness is what kills the fun here.

There are two different guitars at the locale music store. They are both Epiphone Les Paul's, but one has dot inlays and the other one has Trapezoid inlays. Is there any difference in quality between these two, or are they the same quality but the only difference is the inlays? Because the guitar with the Trapezoid inlays costs about, a hundred bucks more.

I have a friend who lives on the west coast. She's had it pretty bad in a very racist town (whites of course) since she's moved there but she did get baptized several years ago. She has children and saw that many children in the congregation were behaving ungodly so she tried talking to the parents but the parents obviously didn't care; hence that's where the kids got their ungodly behavior from the parents. So she finally, after going to the elders and attempting to have a meeting with the ill-mannered witnesses, stopped the association between her kids and the bad seeds.

Now the bad kids and their parents call and harass her, say racial slurs, gossip and spread lies/false rumors about her and when she tried to talk to the elders about it, one yelled at her and told her not to ever call him again. Now, needless to say, she does not attend that lily-white congregation anymore and has asked the society in New York for help. Most witnesses are bringing badness to the organization.

I read recently that you can only have 3 children, including your own, to watch at one time in your home with out being licensed.

What about if I were to have an additional adult as a helper, is it 3 total or 3 per adult?

Does any one know what the cost of getting lisenced is?

Everyone always cares so much about what happens to us when we die... I guess being an atheist I don't care that much... I just think that's the end... However nobody ever really wonders what we were before we were born....

So my question is...

What were we before we were born? Nothing... non-existant... a tree... a different person....

What do you think we were??

I like the tree idea! ;)

My 7hp briggs engine has a carb problem i think. when i start the engine it runs fine for about ten seconds and then stalls out. I think it is a gas problem because when i spray starter fluid into the carb when it starts to die it runs for a few seconds longer. I have already cleaned the gas line and taken the carb completely apart and checked for a plug of some kind. i have also checked the float and everything in the carb seems to be in working order. I don't know what to check at this point. any help fixing the problem would be much appreciated.
