Once it happened like I saw a dreadful dream about my Grandma's murder and she's alive then. After waking up, I shared it with my sis and to my surprise, she stopped me and began to tell the second half of (my) dream by herself. When asked, how she knew the whole thing - pat came the reply that she also had seen the same dream on the same night. Now that my grandma has passed away normally when she's 85, we both use to wonder about that incident of having seen the same dream by 2 people at the same time. Can I be informed of "How's this possible" - as we're not TWINS?

In the sentence pattern "why can't+ subject +predicate", if the subject is a phrase and very long, is it better to place "can't" behind the subject, just like this "why + subject + can't +predicate"?

I've been with my girlfriend for around a year now, and although she is pretty and has a great personality, i dont feel it will work out in the long term. We just want different things in life and i can see it being a problem in the future.

Recently shes been telling me how she wants to be with me forever... and how she cant imagine being with another man. This has got me thinking... i should really break up with her before she starts getting too serious.

The problem is i know it will mess up her emotions, i dont really want to hurt her. I've been honest with her in the past, telling her how we are just two very different people, but she always says its a good thing because life would be boring if we were all the same.

Its not like i've been seeing any other girls or find other girls more attractive... its just i cant see it working out in the long term.

What should i do or what do you suggest i do?

Everyone in the universe knows full well that no other religion has anything like Jihadists.

In fact, the best people can do is to pathetically try and compare the very few abortion clinic bombings done by a few fundamentalist Christians to global Jihad, where almost all armed conflict worldwide is Islamic.

We hear it all the time, from islamists and far left apologists, that "its just radicals...every religion has radicals", as if there some parallel universe where blood thirsty Buddhists yell "Budha akbar" before they murder for Bdha.

How does it explain anyting to simply say "oh they are radicals"? Muslims have always been at war....does that mean they have always been run by the mythical "radicals"?

Muhammad was no peaceful Budha or Jesus figure...there was no turning the other cheek for the warlord. Keep in mind, he lead twenty six battles of war, which is exactly how Islam began to grow...directly through violence...not by smiling Budhist monks or happy disciples.

Im english and my girlfriend is Irish and to be honest I´m not up on my history between the two nations. I understand the potatoe famine but I need to know what happened between the two nations to make the Irish tend to dislike the English. Ireland tend to say that England came and took whole counties of which they now own in Ireland. Some English people will say that Ireland was our to begin with and we took it back. I just want someone to fill me n with the true history between these two nations. Because when I am spoken to about it when I viit Ireland I dont have a leg to stand on because I know nothing. Let´s see who can give the best answer.

A successful rancher died and left everything to his devoted wife. She was a very good-looking woman and determined to keep the ranch, but knew very little about ranching, so she decided to place an ad in the newspaper for a ranch hand.
Two cowboys applied for the job. One was gay and the other a drunk.
She thought long and hard about it, and when no one else applied she
decided to hire the gay guy, figuring it would be safer to have him around the house than the drunk.
He proved to be a hard worker who put in long hours every day and knew a lot about ranching.
For weeks, the two of them worked, and the ranch was doing very well.
Then one day, the rancher's widow said to the hired hand, 'You have done a really good job, and the ranch looks great. You should go into town and kick up your heels.'
The hired hand readily agreed and went into town one Saturday night.
One o'clock came, however, and he didn't return. Two o'clock and no hired hand. Finally he returned around two-thirty, and upon entering the room, he found the rancher's widow sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine, waiting for him.
>She quietly called him over to her.
>'Unbutton my blouse and take it off,' she said.
>Trembling, he did as she directed.
>'Now take off my boots.'
>He did as she asked, ever so slowly.
>'Now take off my socks.'
>He removed each gently and placed them neatly by her boots.
>'Now take off my skirt.'
>He slowly unbuttoned it, constantly watching her eyes in the fire light.
>'Now take off my bra.'
>Again, with trembling hands, he did as he was told and dropped it to the
>floor.
> Then she looked at him and said, 'If you ever wear my clothes into town again, you're fired.'
>
> (Yeah, I didn't see it coming, either.)
