How would you answer this question:

While playing catch with a friend he tells you to "go long". You eagerly sprint out 50 yards and turn to catch the ball, but he doesn't throw it, he just laughs and points at you. How do you feel?

What is the application of computer systems and techniques to gather legal evidence?
My answer was money. I knew that wasn't the right answer. Can anyone tell me the correct one, please?

Which of the following stores instructions and data used most often by the CPU?
RAM
BIOS
cache
ROM
My answer was RAM, but the computer marked me wrong. so is it ROM? I think it's not. Maybe cache. Help, please.

Laptops usually do not contain the latest (blank)?
My 1st answer was technology, 2nd is hardware. They're both wrong. What else?

I got 27/34 the 2nd time I did it. Wasn't bad but I want a 34/34. Wellcome all attempts. Sorry for the crapy English. It's hard for me to type all these because I'm from China and it's difficult for me to use another language.

Company is a recruitment firm and the employee they placed with me left during the rebate period. I am entitled to a full refund 6K or so, but the company no longer seems to be trading under the name i signed contract and is de-registered at Companies House. Although I know they are still trading under a different name.

Queens-sized choke
By Jeff Passan

Friday, Sep 21, 2007 5:01 am EDT
The New York Mets are like a Jenga tower right now, fragile and teetering, everyone waiting for it to crumble, and poised to scream, bellow and cackle when it does.

If the Mets do collapse -- if they really, truly do blow their seven-game division lead they held on Sept. 12 -- it will register as one of baseball's all-time great accordion jobs, and not just because they're from New York.

To see a team with immense talent play like bums is harrowing. The Mets blew another inexplicable game Thursday night, ceding a three-run ninth-inning lead in an 8-7 extra-innings loss at Florida. It was the Mets' sixth loss in seven games, and Philadelphia's 7-6 comeback win against Washington propelled them to 1 1/2 games behind the Mets in the National League East standings.

Closer Billy Wagner was the latest denizen of the Mets' training room, missing the game with back spasms and forcing manager W

How to keep you away from always wanting more. It should have been enough.

e.g.
I want 10 when I have 5. Long time ago 5 would be more than enough. I always keep forgeting how it feels when I only have 2.

Is all morality subjective to a point? Even a religious believer chooses which religious book to get his morals from. On what basis does he make that choice?

And within any holy book there are bound to be conflicts and multiple interpretations. The believer must CHOOSE which moral guideline to follow and which to ignore.

"turn the other cheek" or "an eye for an eye"

On what basis does one choose?

It seems to me that the religious person chooses right and wrong for himself just as the atheist does. The religious person may narrow his choices but he ultimately writes his own moral code just as the atheist does.

The difference is, the atheist admits that its only his opinion

Why is the Bible 100% true? (because it is the inspired word of God)
How do you know the Bible is the inspired word of God? (because it says so)
Where does it say so? (In the Bible)

See? Perfect logic....

Columbia University extended its invitation to Iran's Ahmadinejad to come and speak ... meanwhile, the University decided to cancel the speech of Jim Gilchrist, the founder of the Minuteman Project. Apparently he would cause too much controversy.

In response to the cancellation, Gilchrist on Tuesday that his speech “would have been a great revelation for the student body and it would have redeemed the Columbia University student body's reputation of being comprised of a Paleolithic - a caveman - mentality."
Last year critics questioned Columbia’s commitment to free speech after Gilchrist was physically and verbally attacked by student protesters.

I would love to read your thoughts with regards to this topic. Does this represent your idea of what freedom of speech is all about? Invite Ahmadinejad, but cancel Gilchrist?

This isn’t really a question I just want support. In April after trying for our second child for only 2 months we got pregnant we were so happy but lost the baby in June. The way things happened was very hard for me. We were told that after 2 months we could start trying again. I just started my period today cycle 3 of trying. I know that isn’t very long but if you think about it it has been 6 moths of trying . Its hard to wait even though we know it will happen eventually. But the part that is so hard for me is I am married we own our home as well as our vehicles all out right we have a 3 bedroom house and a lot of love and I keep getting told about my cousin who doesn’t have custody of her 2 year old is now trying really hard to get pregnant buy some guy she has been dating for like a month she is homeless and her child is living with the grandmother who is soon to be homeless. She had an abortion since her daughter has been born and my uncles wife is apparently trying to get pregnant because there relationship is crumbling again partly because she is a crappy parent and they cant handle the 3 kids they have and make there oldest child responsible for the other 2. and with out getting into all the stories I know a million ppl in bad situations who are pregnant. I just don’t get it why did my baby have to be taken away from me. All I could say when I was told about my cousin was im going to be pissed if she gets pregnant b4 me!! I know everything happens the way it does for a reason and we have already been very blessed with our son and a lot of ppl don’t even have that. It just stinks why cant ppl who actually want to get pregnant and for the right reasons get pregnant. Like I said it isn’t a question I just need to vent.

The affair ended quietly...Was a long distance thing so running into each other was never a problem...Over the course of 5 months, misunderstandings accumulated....He started it by asking for a break, then changing his mind. I messed up as much as him, at times pursuing him, at times pushing him away...Then I ended it...
Leaving my marriage was never an option for me...For him neither...
Part of me just wants to move on and part of me is shattered he didn't try harder to change my mind...
I guess my question is...How long am I going to feel like SH!T?

Yesterday after reading my customary stack of erotic emails from my many admirers, I suddenly was struck by a feeling I never had before (tingling down on side of my body and weakness followed by collapse and convulsions). My doctor said I had a stroke and seizure - I would normally agree, but biting my tongue and urinating in my pants is standard practice for me. Could it be love?
