5 yrs into Blair's premiership he could not be named by nearly 20% of Brits.

Only a quarter could identify Saddam Hussein despite him being on the news every day at that time.

A plug socket has been knocked out at home and some of the plaster has crumbled around the edges.

Do you think we need an electrician to come round and have a look or would a handyman be more relevant?

The wiring hasn't been damaged.

Thanks very much!

My Mother in Law is amazing and I love her so much. The problem is, I wanted to have a baby shower before the baby was born (back in August) and she is now wanting to have one for me after the baby is born so people can see the baby. I am very, very worried about this because I don't want anyone touching the baby due to they might have had a cold or the flu recently (since it is cold season), most of my family are smokers, and I just flat out don't want this little guy to get sick from anyone bc I'd feel horrible. Am I over-paranoid for thinking this way? I feel as though I'm being selfish. I'd love a baby shower, but I don't know. I was thinking that I could pick up hand sanitizer and have everyone that comes over use it? Is that silly of me to think like that?

And when challenged ask you to repeat above statement 'down va pub, like innit'

Is it because:
-your women are more masculine and generally hairier
-you require vast inputs of beer for anythig approaching courage
-you realise the world still hates you with a fiery passion
-sodomy, rum and the lash are the three pillars of British society and Empire with a mass devoted following
- your foreskin is so full of cheese you market as "fromage paysan"- peasant cheese to the British knuckle-dragger
- grin smugly as they take it up the colon from Islamics and blacks
-your hero Beckham is an illiterate, inarticulate admitted transvestite married to a squawking woman resembling a roast chicken?

Tell me why British men are such poncing nancies?

My credit card interest rate jumped beyond what auto loans finance at. IF the titles are with me can I take an auto loan on the cars and use that amount to pay off credit card debt that was incurred at a higher interest rate.

Taking the environment into consideration before making the decision to have children....

So many people reproduce without thinking about the impact their child will have on the environment, or what impact the environment will have on the child.

Between pollution, global warming, disappearing natural resources, political strife, and war is it smart, safe or even responsible to have children at this point in time? (or multiple children)

Thoughts, feelings?

We all know hubbles constant, and hubbles law, right? But what is the purpose of it, besides the relationship between distance, velocity and his constant. Why did Edwin invent hubble's constant?

What's a red shift/Blue shift? I'm having problems understanding that aswell. So as the galaxy moves away, the light it emmits shifts towards the red spectrum, but why does the spectrum shift?

The probable origins of the universe are most likely from the Big Band, and I see how Hubble said that with these red shifts, the distance is getting greater between us, which suggests that the universe is expanding.

Also, outta curiousity, if the universe was expanding, including us, wouldn't the density change = 0, relative to all matter?

And if black holes squash matter to the size of a hydrogen atom, wouldn't that mean that the amount of matter is gonna be reduced to nothing, and energy is destroyed in the process, which cancells the law of conservation of energy?
