Without looking up the internet
Or reading it up in books
or phoning a friend or even asking a friend.

How many states in America are there and can you name them.
You cannot get any help on this... it will be cheating.

And by the way... I'm sorry if I upset any of you this evening, cheers.

Given that most of the above professions are paid to LIE on behalf of their clients, do you think it is a good system to have lawyers/barristers etc. serving in our parliament. (Think the legally qualified and once practising barrister Tony Blair.) His history of honesty, (or the lack of it) especially over Iraq and sold peerages highlights this question of their suitability.

My friend got a letter in the mail from the FBI stating that she may be a victim. This letter mentions her ex-husband that she hasn't seen in years, hasn't talked to him in years, doesn't even know where he lives, etc. She called the FBI directly and the lady that she's supposed to talk to isn't in till Monday. In the meantime, my friend is distraught and concerned as she is worried for her and her children's sake. Can anyone help me as to what this letter is intended to do?

Can a person contact someone who is serving time in the jail? Considering he knows his name. Will the police give information of where he is located to visit him, or will they give information of the address so he can be reached via mail?

It seems to me that whenevery people answer these questions a large part of it is emotional. I was just wondering if anyone has changed their thoughts on these matters. ie. Thought 9/11 wasn't a conspiracy then thought it was ... or thought Iraq was about oil then thought it wasn't.
And also please tell me what led to the change in mind. Thanks.

people can't get vital drugs because of the expense, crime is rampant, pensioner's are struggling to keep warm to survive, Britain is in a mess because the government won't spend money on education, health, policing and on it's people. So what does chancellor Gordon Brown do? Pledges 100 million pounds of British taxpayers money to help the Iraqi people rebuild the country. Shouldn't this government sort this country out first? Or is it Tony Blair's way of saying "sorry about the war, but I was wrong".

Not going to say who it is (yet, anyway) but what do you think?
"No white trash, no blacks sucking your taxes and stealing your wallet, just intelligent people who realize immigration is the backbone of USA."

Kind of funny that in the same breath someone talks about white trash and support illegal immigration, they make a statement like that against black people, huh?

They have always made claim that it is the pro-immigrants that are using the race card. but lately if you read their remarks they are calling me a racist and i'm not even white. They need to learn to be a little more politicaly correct in this issue and just accept this country is going back to it rightful owners.

Can anyone provide a reason for how immediatly pulling out of Iraq would be the best plan of action?

(Note: I don't believe this to be a good plan, but some support it, so I challenge them to provide a good reason)

And he says we lost the will to win there? We had 550,000 troops at the peak, 50,000 of our troops killed, the war lasted 10 years and after killing at least 1.5 million of the enemy, the war raged on.
He chose not to serve in Vietnam(signed that he didn't want to serve overseas) instead choosing National Guard duty. We were fighting in Vietnam to fight Communism and now George Bush would like to set up trade with a still Communist nation.
