Karl Dean came into the race to be Nashville’s next mayor as a political unknown, at least when compared with his opponent. Bob Clement could be considered the polar opposite, born with a name tied to Tennessee politics. Now the two are matched up in a run-off that’s the closest race Metro’s seen in decades.

I want to know the meaning of political unknown and also I need to know what's Metro?

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done.

The monsignor replied, "When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. if I start to get nervous, I take a sip."

So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm.

Upon his return to his office after mass, he found the following note on the door:

1. Sip the Vodka, don't gulp.
2. There are 10 commandments, not 12.
3. There are 12 disciples, not 10.
4. Jesus was consecrated, not constipated.
5. Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his a**.
6. We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J. C.
7. The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the Spook.
8. David slew Goliath, he did not kick the s*** out of him.

My friend just copied this to me so I could ask it on here as she forgot her password and it wont reset..

It scares him like mad and he wakes up sweating and shaking and then he doesnt dare go back to sleep and hes losing sleep about it. It stopped for a couple of months then came back. Can anyone try to explain why he has these dreams? Is it something he does that triggers it or something we talk about ect. Explinations please?
(Sorry for spelling & Thanks for answering)

I've read alot about building credit and I've read that your credit score is calculated by FICO which increases your score depending on how many on time payments you make and decrease on how many you miss. It also decreases it if you apply for too many credit cards and do other little things like that. So does having more credit cards increase your score as long as you dont have an outstanding balance? or does it lower it? If you have a credit card with no balance does that lower it the longer you have it without using it?
I know this all sounds confusing but I'm new to all this and I just recently applied for so many cards which was probably bad. I finally got a few and I wanna make sure I approach this correctly to build credit without going in debt or screwing myself over like many people.
Any info/tips on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

It seems to me as though many of my fellow atheists are too concerned about being politically correct; it’s as though many of them aren’t willing to get down and get dirty, so to speak. I’m talking about ‘upping the anti,’ taking the battle to the non-atheists, exploiting the weaknesses in mainstream religions and being more pro-active in general. We have picked a fight with the toughest kid in the playground, a kid for whom no level of dirty fighting is too low and we can either stand and fight or lurk in the shadows behind the toilet block. Do you not realize that we have an obligation to future generations to do all we can to be rid of the primitive superstitious nonsense that is religion?

A state trooper spied a car puttering along at 22 MPH. So he turned on his lights and pulled the driver over. Approaching the car, he noticed that five old guys were inside, and they looked wide-eyed and terribly pale.
The driver pleaded with him, "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?"
"Sir," the officer replies, "You weren't speeding, but driving slower than the speed limit can also be dangerous."
"I beg to differ, Officer, I was doing the speed limit exactly: twenty-two miles an hour!" the old man said.
The trooper, chuckling, explained to him that "22" was the route number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the man grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out his error.
"But before I let you go, Sir, I have to ask... Is everyone in this car ok? These guys seem awfully shaken."
"Oh, they'll be all right in a minute," the old man said. "We just got off Route 119."

I know in most states in the US the age to purchase alcohol is 21. I wanted to know if minors simply cannot purchase alcohol or they cannot consume it at all. Let's say you're at a restaurant and your dad buys you a beer and you're under the drinking age. Is that illegal?

Some of the laws are so confusing and I just wanted to set it straight for myself.
