I read once that the basic technology for the modern cellphone actually was invented decades ago but the patents expired before the inventor could make any money. Apparently cellphones are the great-grandchildren of that phone-in-a-box you always saw Cpl. Radar using on the MASH television show. My question is how was the technology adapted? How did something from the 1940s become a 21st century necessity?

Most women seem to like having their neck bitten, hair lightly pulled, beiing moved around, having their neck smelled, and having their ear lobes nibbled on a little with a little licking as well. What are some other things that are good turn ons?

Me and my boyfriend have been going out for about 7months. We are both in 30s and we are both divorced with no kids. We both want to get married if our relationship grows and find out if we are right for each other. We don't know if we are right for each other yet but we like each other very much. I introduce him to my family and my parents don't think he is right for me due to uncertainty of financial future of my boyfriend. (He works but he is not financially stable.) My parents expressed their feelings in a nice way and encouraging me to date other potential people. Honestly, I like him very much but what my parents are saying also makes sense. He has been very cautious in our relationship due to past divorce, doesn't open up with me in deep level and it feels he's distant or hegitant to make our relationship go forward. After meeting my parents, he was in shock and now he wants time to think. What does this mean?

Many will argue that abortion IS murder. I will not go into that but is it better to end a life painlessly, or should the life proceed into a life of misery and a life that they aren't wanted in? Should the chick be eaten as an egg painlessly, or should we let it grow into a chicken that serves no purpose?

my sister co signed a car for her friend, now he hasn't paid for a couple of months, the bank sent a letter saying that they need to get paid other wise they'll will excersice their rights. here is what i want to know. if he doesn't pay they'll come after he as well, and then they will repo the car, sell and they would have to pay the difference on the balance. i'm i right so far?
it will go agianst her credit, i know the guy and i'm sure he's not gonna pay, if she doens't pay the remaining balance can they put a lean on her house or can they somehow get to her bank account or something?

Is it true that you shouldn't sit around waiting for love? And you should just let it come to you naturally?
I mean, it sounds reasonable, but on the other hand, sometimes you have to make stuff happen on your own right?

I've read some comments from traditional studio photographers that claim photoshop manipulation is a cop out or not photography because it is artificial or phony looking. But in reality, you could argue all photography is 'artificial' and 'phony.' A photograph of a person is not a person. It's a visual representation of a person made by the mechanical means of a machine and medium (film stock). Most photographers use or used enlargers. If that's not 'artificial' what is? Besides that, traditionally photographers have manipulated film photographs with dodging, burning, solarizing, etc. And they also have an argument about digital photo manipulation not 'looking real'. Do traditional photographs 'look real'? They are 2-dimensional and made of paper, and lots are b&w. Nothing 'real' about that either. Isn't it really because we have accepted film photography as a convention? convention.
