It really is difficult to remain unbiased when it comes to discussing Americans. They arrogate to themselves the right to act as this planet's policeman, to condemn other countries for real or perceived breaches of human rights and to rail against forms of government which in American eyes are less democratic than theirs. As Americans are such good Christians, surely they know the passage in the Bible that says: "O thou hypocrite, before thou wouldst remove the splinter from thy brother's eye, attend to the beam in thine own eye!" Never has a passage from the Bible been more apt. So naturally do Americans become defensive when their own shortcomings are pointed out to them, because to face the truth would be unbearable.
Which other self-proclaimed peace-loving country has waged so many wars against smaller defenceless countries, has allowed the members of their military to commit atrocity after atrocity going back to WW2, the Korean War, Vietnam, and now Iraq?
In what other country do you need to be a millionaire or at least be able to raise millions in order to be elected to parliament or chief executive?
Where else on this globe has the education system broken down and/or deteriorated to such an extent that children no are no longer able to read and write or do simple arithmetic and need to take remedial classes upon entering college?
In which other country with the exception of certain Middle Eastern nations does a small fundamentalist religious minority have the power to manipulate both government and the media to enforce a Victorian concept of morality upon an unwilling population?
I could go on and on, but let this suffice.
No wonder Americans are sensitive when it comes to discussing their shortcomings

The mother stayed up all night worrying for her 40 year old son to come home and got really mad when she found out that he had spent the night sleeping with his girlfriend.

Is there something wrong with this picture?

Ok, so Travis Henry, Willie Parker, Marshawn Lynch, and Steven Jackson are not playing next week.

I have Adrian Peterson left and I can pick up someone off the waiver wire for my second slot.

Who should I look for and why?

Multiple picks would be appreciated.

My 17lb Minature Schnauzer ate about 10 Welsh Cookies last night. We didn't find the empty bag until a few hours ago. Since Welsh Cookies have currants, and currants are supposed to be bad for dogs (kidney failure), I was wondering if I should be worried. It was most likely less than 1 cup of currants in the whole dozen and he only ate 10 cookies. He seems fine and isn't urinating any more or less than usual. a

Am I getting worried about nothing?

Mark 3:29,30 portrays the Holy Spirit in a clear contrast with an unclean spirit. Jesus was accused by some hostile Jewish leaders of having an unclean spirit. He responded by saying that He had the Holy Spirit.

Just as unclean spirit is a personal being ( The Watchtower Society teaches that unclean spirits are personal beings ), so too is the contrasting spirit -the Holy Spirit - a personal being.

What do you think about this?

complete the following setences by filling in the blanks with the correct case endings and translate.

Quintus patr---- vocat.
So, it would Quintus calls his father. right?
so, father would be accusitive, ending in -um, right? wrong. the correct answer is -es. Why is this? how could one recognize this? Please Please help me. I'm very confused.

TOM BRADY Is the best quarterback in the NFL. PERIOD. Manning is just an overrated loser, biggest cry baby and a choke artist. sure manning has better stats than brady in his career but atleast brady leads his team to victory when it counts the most. 3 SUPERBOWLS BABY IN LESS THAN 5 YEARS!!! and also u have to consider the fact that brady had half the offense indy does to play with in new england (not including this year) and he still produces while manning has harrison and wayne (2 of the best WRs) for a such a long time. and wat does he do...HE CHOKES IN THE PLAYOFFS AND THEN GOES & CRIES ABT IT. when ppl say manning is better clearly its a big jokee cuz this year a 4th ring will be on brady's finger. BRADY FOR MVP!!! (and if pats go 16-0, oh yeaaa he will definitely win it, NO DOUBT)

Light travels at a speed of 3.00 x 10 ( to the power of 10 ) cm/s. What is the speed of light in kilometers per hour?

I tried to solve this by changing units but got confused by the exponents. The answer is 1.08 x 10 (to the power of 9) km/hr but how do they get this?

Would someone please explain why the "adoption fee" for Yorkshire terriers are so high?

There are some local rescues who have fees that are 175 to 700 dollars!

I support and am willing to pay a reasonable adoption fee but 700$? I could buy a purebred whatever puppy for that I'm sure. Heck in this market you could buy a decent HORSE for that much.

I'd love to adopt a yorkie or other small dog one day, but it may end up being cheaper to go to a breeder. Yikes. I never though t I would say or think that.

Whoever we are
Wherever were from
We shoulda noticed by now
Our behavior is dumb
And if our chances
Expect to improve
Its gonna take a lot more
Than tryin to remove
The other race
Or the other whatever
From the face
Of the planet altogether

They call it the earth
Which is a dumb kinda name
But they named it right
cause we behave the same...
We are dumb all over
Dumb all over,
Yes we are
Dumb all over,
Near n far
Dumb all over,
Black n white
People, we is not wrapped tight

Nurds on the left
Nurds on the right
Religous fanatics
On the air every night
Sayin the bible
Tells the story
Makes the details
Sound real gory
bout what to do
If the geeks over there
Dont believe in the book
We got over here

You cant run a race
Without no feet
n pretty soon
There wont be no street
For dummies to jog on
Or doggies to dog on
Religous fanatics
Can make it be all gone
(I mean it wont blow up
n disappear
Itll just look ugly
For a thousand years...)

This is the question:

Does this make sense? He says the reason he never married is because no woman was ever good enough for his mom


This is the answer:

Possibly yes. He knows his mothers negetives and positives (attitude/ behaviour etc). He did not want a noisy atmosphere at home. I mean chances of In-law fighting.
