I have most of the stuff in my room (laptop, cell charger, printer) hooked up to one power strip or surge protector. I want to conserve more energy, and I know these devices suck energy out even when not in use or in sleep mode. When I leave for the day/go to bed and want to turn it off, do I have to unplug the power strip from the wall or do I only need to switch it off? Thanks!

watching tv and seeing many people with gender identity confusion is scary. we have a 15 month old son and it would be hard to find out one day that he doesn't like girls! I know it's a horrible thought to have, I can't help it.
right now he seems to be really interested in all of Daddy's toys, he has transformers and cars and our son is always pretending to drive them and make car noises and makes roaring noises with tigers and other toys. He also loves my baby doll that I have and he's always trying to help me cook and clean and is always wanting to kiss any little babies that we see out in public. Is it too early to see any signs of gender confusion?

What do you think about a person who tries to use emergency and ambulance drivers for their personal use?
A neighbor of mine, who was quite elderly and very over weight, was always trying to beat the "system", one way or another, would have a "fall" about twice a month then call 9ll and ask for assistance in getting up and then would say "Oh, and would you please stop by and pick me up a hamberger on your way out? It never worked but she kept trying until they finally put her in a nurseing home

I like the line I once heard in a movie. This guy was trying to pick up this girl, and she said to him, "Can you pound a railroad spike through a 2x4 with your hard-on?" To which he merely shudders a negative. She says, "Well, a girl's gotta have her standards."

A girlfriend of mine once had a graying man in his 60's approach her in a club while she was in college with the line, "Where have you been all my life?" She took one glance at him and said, "For the first half of it, I probably wasn't born yet."

15
A friend of mine came up with a very quick response over vacation. We were walking down the street and I glanced at a girl who had just walked by. She turned around and said to me, "What are you looking at?" My friend, walking next to me came to the rescue, "He thought you were good looking, but he was mistaken."

16
While at college, a few friends were discussing how their "passes" had been rejected by the intended female recipient. One of the ladies explained how she handled it once... When the guy, obviously getting irritated, blurted out something like, "Hey, come on, we're both here at this bar for the same reason!" She responded, "Yeah! Let's pick up some chicks!" He immediately blanched, and decided that maybe he would look someplace else.

17
The attractive young woman was sitting at the bar, alone, when the lounge lizard made his move. "I'm here," he breathed huskily, "to fulfill your every sexual fantasy." The woman turned and looked at him. Her lips parted and she moistened them with the tip of her tongue. She leaned toward him with her hands on her thighs, and her eyes opened to the size of dinner plates. She paused just a second and then delivered the crusher line, "You've got a large donkey or Doberman?"

"Sorry, I don't date outside my species."

19
Man: "Hey, baby, if you come home with me, I can show you a really good time."
