When a team leads a best of 7 series 3-0, do think they have an advantage in each ensuing game because they are on a role and have momentum. Or do you think they have an advantage because the other team has to try harder because they are on the brink of elimination. Does this make the other team more prone to mistakes? Obviously I'm referring to the NLCS with the D'backs and Rockies, but I'm also referring to the fact there have only been 2 teams to come back and win a best of 7 after being down 3-0 (Boston Red Sox and a hockey team).

I was clearing out some rubbish and i had totally forgotten i had a private pension with Scottish Widows with about £500 in it, i am sure i read an article regarding a possible takeover of them, if that is the case, who took them over and would there be a windfall payment to all customers who qualify, i am slighty off the pace with all this and confused. Have i missed a windfall as the last time they wrote to me was March 2003 and have moved address several times since, your help would be great. Thank You Grant.

Heart Switch ~

I am my own guise
Because no one can see inside
Even when they try
I realign the pieces every time you leave
Don’t let anyone know
But goodbyes are the hardest thing for me
I feel too much all the time
I’m quite aware of this
But that’s my heart
That’s mine
It seems to be perpetually inexorable
No matter what you do to it

I wish I had a Heart Switch
So I could switch it off and leave
All I need and all I’ve ever wanted are my dreams
Love only distracts me and leaves me bruised
I don’t function with a melted heart
And I can’t take it when you say you love me
And then break my trust

My wound is wide open
And the salt you pour in with the things you say
Every time you lie a piece of me fades away
I wish I had a Heart Switch
So I could wrap a fence around it

I have an aptitude for nothing
I’m deviant in everything
Break my heart and take it with you when you leave
So I no longer need an excuse to believe.

Everyone knows Mount Rushmore was the result of intelligent design.

Laws of science show that it takes more faith to be an atheist then it does to believe in God.

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl."



The Priest asks, "Is that you, little Johnny Parisi?"



"Yes, Father, it is."



"And who was the girl you were with?"



"I can't tell you, Father, I don't want to ruin her reputation."



"Well, Johnny, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later, so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?"



"I cannot say."



"Was it Teresa Volpe?"



"I'll never tell."



"Was it Nina Capelli?"



"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."



"Was it Cathy Piriano?"



"My lips are sealed."



"Was it Rosa Di Angelo, then?"



"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."



The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight lipped, Johnny Parisi, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself."

A man staggers into an emergency room with two black eyes and a five iron wrapped tightly around his throat. Naturally the doctor asks him what happened.

"Well, it was like this," said the man, "I was having a quiet round of golf with my wife, when she sliced her ball into a pasture of cows."


"We went to look for it, and while I was rooting around I noticed one of the cows had something white at its rear end. I walked over and lifted up the tail, and sure enough, there was my wife's golf ball........stuck right in the middle of the cow's butt. That's when I made my mistake."

"What did you do?" asks the doctor.

"Well, I lifted the tail and yelled to my wife, Hey, this looks like yours!"

In Australia, is it still the case that you should sit up front in a taxi. When I was in Sydney ten years ago, the old habit seemed to be changing. With many more Asian taxi drivers around the old idea of riding up front next to the driver seemed to be less important. Has this trend continued? And what happens in rural Australia?

I am 38 weeks pregnant and when I went for an ultrasound last
Thursday, I was told that my amniotic fluid was on the low side of normal. I was told to drink a lot of water and return in 7 - 10 days for another ultrasound. So I have been drinking alot of water and urinating like crazy. Recently I have noticed what feels like urine leaking. When I sit down and get up and walk around I can feel it on my leg. I have had to change my panties like 5 times a day. I am now worried that I could be leaking amniotic fluid. What should I do? What precedure do they use at the hospital to see if it is amniotic fluid or urine. This is so embarrasing.
