I hope to check out some events next year , and was wondering what its like from those who have been to events (of any kind).
Whether you showed or were just there to watch.
What did you do while you were there?
Does it usually cost for one to go and watch?
Do you get much time to talk with people who are showing their dogs?
Is it common for somebody to just attend or is it mostly just people there to show?
Anything that one really needs to know before attending an event?

There was a question asked a while back about how fast a language evolves. The best answer chosen was that a language will become incomprehensible in 500 years. Another good answer (in my opinion) was 5% of change with every generation.

My question for discussion is this:

Will television, the Internet, global economy, etc... slow the change of language? Will people 500 years from now (assuming America isn't conquered and the language is replaced) speak an English we would understand? Although there will be tons of dialects like there is today, will standard English be roughly the same as it is today?

Let's have some well thought out educated guesses!

The word "anti-semitic" is generally used to describe people who don't like Jewish people. Is there a similar term for people who don't like Christians?

My wife is complaining that I do not make enough time for her. In all honesty I don't see how I can squeeze more time out of my day. I don't fish, hunt, play golf or do anything for myself, EVER. I go to work every day and go to the gym (3 days a week). I still arrive home before my wife, when I go to the gym. The rest of my time is spent with my family in some way. On the weekends, I am either with all or some of them the entire time. I do have a son (from a previous marriage) that I spend time with either in conjunction with and/or seperate from my wife. I have altered the things I used to do (not going to ball games, not spending as much time coaching my son's ball teams, not going to the gym on the weekends, neglecting projects that need to be done at home). I attend EVERY one of her daughter's events (whether they are plays, soccer games, PTA nights at school). But, it is never enough. I choose to do these things because my family is what makes me happy. What can I do?

this is a serious and health related question.dont take it otherwise.i think such things happen in movies only and noone does it in real life,as i think this spreads diseases as there remains urine on those organs.

Perhaps it's someone you knew well, or maybe someone that briefly touched your life, yet ,left an indelible mark that even today you can't forget. In what way did they affect your life?

The emissions spewed by all the idling cars, trucks and sport utility vehicles is something to think about. The environment is more important than convenience. I think there should be no such thing as a drive thru!

There was a time where me and my stpedad actually got along when i was young. but once i hit puberty, he started changing. He started drinking more and became more strict. Most of the time when him and my mom argues, it was over me and the way he was treating me. They would actually get in fist fights when i was younger and then my mom would take me and my little sis to our grandmas house till things blew over. but we always went back to him.

i hate my stepdad because his way of controlling me is by getting in my face and yelling and when i try to say something to him, he will smack me hard across my mouth. I suffer from serious depression and use to cut from the physical and emotional abuse i deal with. I feel my mom has chosen him over me, even though she knows his "parenting techniques"

I think it all started when his brother died in a car wreck and that his other two daughters lived with their mother and never wanted to come see him but every other weekend.

I think she's cute, but NOT HOT.

She might have a nice body, but people make her seem like she's a goddess.

ok, this is the scenario: i regularly complain of being fat - even though i am within a healthy weight range and am of average weight. i know i am not fat, but i wouldn't mind losing a little weight... its not hugely a big deal, as i work out most nights and eat very healthy foods. people say there is nothing wrong with my body and that i am not fat.
my flatmate is naturally stick thin and is a head shorter than me, she is tiny. she also says i am not fat, but that i am of a healthy weight.
one night, we were really drunk, and i asked her if i was fat - and she said yes.
around 7 months later, she was describing to me a girl from her work and described her as being, "a bit fatter than you". she then quickly corrected herself and said, "um a lot fatter than you...". and she kind of trailed off and tried to act as though nothing had happened. i did not mention anything to her - but i do believe she had made a Freudian slip, which occurs when a person says what they really mean before

My question is a two parter. First what is your classification in the in the draft system if you were an only child (thus meaning you couldn't be drafted, I think it was 1-Y or something). Second I have heard of this happening, is there ANYWAY now or back then you could still have been an only child and been drafted (besides obviously enlisting, or asking your status to be changed)?

As a tool of escapism there is nothing that comes near to the superiority of the internet. It provides us with knowledge, entertains us, shapes our behaviour, allows us to be even more freer than we were many years ago in the days of yore.

Yes it is abused by some, but '“this instrument can teach, it can illuminate; yes, and it can even inspire. But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise it is merely wires and lights in a box.”


So could you live without it? Could you revert to the days of reading books playing sports in your spare time, socialising with humans (face to face as opposed to in chat rooms) and getting of your chair to order the Bill and Ted boxset, instead of going to ebay or amazon?
