I noticed many hispanics, specifically some proud Mexican-Americans living in the USA as well as other latinos, see themselves as their own "race".

Now I know hispanic is a cultural term for somebody FROM a spanish-speaking country or of that origin/heritage, but why don't most of them seem to realize that SOME of their roots are european in origin (spaniard blood) as well as their language which originated from europe/latin dialect.

I'm not saying they shouldn't be proud of their skin and native heritage (they should), but rather than hold an animosity towards white hispanics, spain spanish (which i heard they can be bad too so i'm not taking sides) and white people in general, why can't they learn to open up and get along with them a little more?

I know some white people are hostile, but i see more of it come from latins here in America, including from white-hispanics who think because they have the hispanic label that doesn't make them caucasian?

Do you think this outfit is cute, for someone in their mid teens?

I really like the shoes, and I would highly appreciate it if you would give me any suggestions of what I could wear them with.

Thanks, ^^

Me and some friends are planning a road trip to Canada next summer. I have heard some rumors that at the beginning of 2008 you have to have a passport to get back into the US. Is this true? Is this all I need? What do i have to do to get a passport?

The Patriots did not play a very good game against a mediocre Jets team. If they were to have brought that effort into a game against a harder team, would they still have won?

For the past 10 or so years (I'm 28) I've been lying to my family and friends. I lie about everything, big and small, sometimes I know I'm doing it, but most of the time the lie comes out of my mouth before I have a chance to tell the truth. Recently my lying got really out of control, to the point where its torn apart my 5 year relationship, I've lost most of my friends, my mother doesn't even want to talk to me anymore. I know I need to seek help, but don't know where to turn. I've tried seeing a psychologist, a social worker, I've been to various groups, nothing seems to be helping. I'm in central CT and was wondering if anyone could recommend a Dr or psychologist that may be able to help me with this. I know the change must come from within, but where do I start?? It seems that I go speak to people about this and they all say the same thing...I dont know much about your problem...whats that helping? Even if someone had the number of a referal system..I'm desperate, please hel

When i was little I saw this movie that had to deal with either a troll or a goblin living in little girl's bedroom wall. At night he would come out through the wall and try to steal her breath. She had a cat and a parrot and the parrot got killed by the troll. At some point of the movie the little girl would talk about the story the three goats gruff and how the troll was from there. What is this movie's name?

A man walking along a street at night came across a blonde lady, on her hands and knees under a street lamp, clearly searching the ground for something.
He asks, "Have you lost something?"
"Yes" she replies, "I've dropped a false nail and I'm looking for it."
"Where abouts did you drop it?" he asks.
"Down there at the bottom of the street."
"Then why are you looking here?" he enquires with a puzzled tone.
She looked up and replied "Because the light's better here."
