I am a veteran with over 17 years of military service under my belt, but didn't get a chance to retire. I am a 30 percent disabled veteran working at a military installation but not authorized to shop at the base exchange or commissary. As a 30 percent disabled vet, am I entitled to those privileges as well as an veterans ID card?

I seriously have doubts that there are any presidents in U.S. history that even comes close. Corruption, lies, just stand in line and follow one antother from bush.

A scandal is not the story, but rather the quanitity is the story. It is a positive trend with no end in sight. One corrupt issue after another.

Has to be some sort of record. Probably more than all our former leaders combined. (not that Bush is our legitimate leader)

i'm not personally stating if it means one thing or another, i am just curious what a) creationists think about God putting a big void in the universe and b) if non-creationists think it will solidify the big bang theory or possibly give way to other ideas?

im almost 37 weeks and am planning on breastfeeding...but i have a fear of it. I want to do it, i know breastmilk is best and thats why i am going to do it im just unsure of myself. I guess its becuase i would feel awkward "exposing" myself. Is this just a natural fear and it goes away? or did anyone else have this problem?

Basically, I want to have two legal names. Ex: John Michael Stevenson and Steve Michael Johnston. I don't want to change my given name, I just want to add a name. I'm not planning on commiting fraud or anything, and I have no problem with registering both names with the government or whatever, I just want to have two different legal names, so that I can have a choice between the two. Say, if I become a doctor, I could be registered as Dr. Johnston, but still have a drivers liscence that says John Stevenson, etc.

Like having an alias, but completely legally, with no intention of hiding my identity.

Principal: Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. -Billy Madison

I just recently found out my wife opened 2 credit cards under my name without telling me. She's been taken money out of those credit cards for gamble. And she didn't make payment on those credit cards, so one is past due for 30 days, another is past due for 90 days, and they both went over the credit limit. I called credit companies to have them closed, but my credit's been damaged so badly. I had 714 before now my credit score dropped to 485. My question is after I paid off those credit cards debt, how long will it take to get my score back to normal? For instance, at least around 600. Please help, thanks!
P.S. I don't wanna get my wife into trouble, so I didn't report it as identity theft.

Once they pulled us over they asked for all of our IDs. All of us being underage gave them our real IDs. They asked the girl who was in the front seat to step out. She did and left her purse on the floor of the front seat. They asked my other buddy who they had seen buy the alcohol to step out of the car. He did. They asked if we had fake ID's. The guy who bought denied at first but after the officer started searching the car he said where it was hidden in the back seat. Me and my one friend are still sitting in the car until they ask us to get out one by one. They ask if we have anything on us and we reply negatively. So were all out of the car and one police officer searches the whole car and finds mine and the girls fake ID's in her purse which was zipped up on the floor. Was he allowed to do this? Is it against the 4th amendment? Now the 3 of our liscenses iare being suspended (the 4th guy didnt have a fake) and i want to fight it because i believe the search was unlawful? Anyidea?

I like to write fantasy stories. Whether it be fan fictions about J-rockers, or stories about my favorite anime, or some off the top of my head. Right now I am thinking of writing a ninja story. But i'd like to know how to get some ideas about like what could happen. What can I do?

If Jesus were alive today, dictated his message, was deemed a heretic and was framed by our modern day pharisees (Pat Robertson and the like), and was executed, would we all kneel two thousand years from now to celebrate his resurrection at a replica of a lethal injection table or a gas chamber?

Would you wear jewelry that signifies a firing squad perch or an electric chair like many do the cross?

That may seem horrifying and sickening, but it seems to me that is exactly what we do when we look at a cross, the prescribed method of capital punishment for Jesus.

I personally think that Jesus' ministry of words can be celebrated in that it lives on today. The pharasees and the Romans could not kill the message and now it lives in all parts of the world. I would think he would want to be remembered for his words and deeds as opposed to the prescribed way he died. Which is more important - his deeds and words, or the prescribed way he died (and okay, his alleged rising again)?
