Please explain in detail. Is it because engines are now much more powerful than they were 10-20 years ago? Also, I saw on TV once that helicopter blades produce a vortex directly behind the blade, with an axis of rotation that is parallel to the blade. This cause the next blade to be less efficient as it passed through the vortex instead of undisturbed air. This seemed to show that it was better to have fewer blades instead of more. That way the vortex had more time to dissipate. Wouldn't this happen with a propeller, as well? What are some other advantages and disadvantages of having more blades instead less, etc.?

Do they think that they are above Jesus Christ?
How can you say you are Christ-like, when you strike out at the homosexuals? This is hate!
Christ could even forgive his betrayer...Judas.

I've found your lives... and mine.

Do you want them back or shall I sell them off for a pretty penny?

BTW, how should I cook it?

we went out on 4 dates, he invited me over to meet his family for his birthday. They had a pool party and I went over and swam with him & his family. He had stayed up all night the night before partying for his birthday with his buddies. He was completely exhausted and after we swam he asked if I wanted to hang around while he took a nap then we could hang out. I was like I'm going home, call me when you wake up. I sent him a text saying thanks for the good time with your family and he replied then I never heard from him again. I have no clue what happened?? I really liked him and I thought he liked me too or he wouldn't have introduced me to his folks. Any ideas anyone???

I have a yellow original nintendo gameboy and I would like to sell it if I could get a reasonable amount of money for it. I searched continously on the web for a price it might go for. Its in working and great condition. I think its considered rare because I cannot find it.

If you could find a web page, preferably not Ebay, that lists the price of it, 10 points. Or give me a rough estimate of how much it should sell for.

Thank you...

I haven't, but from what I'm told, it sucks the balls off a goat...

*They make you listen to Amy Grant songs sung by a Celine Dion sound-a-like all day long.

*On Sundays, I was told that in sermon is completely built around the lyrics to the MC Hammer song "Pray".

*On the fifth Wednesday on every month, George Michael is asked to visit and he does a gosple rendition of "Faith".

*I was also told that children are forced to work in the Nike mines...

I don't know about you, but I'd rather rot in hell than have to listen to Amy Grant or Celine Dion...The mining/children/Nike thing might be alright, however...
