I fell off an Ikea Poang chair while I was standing on it. I hit my head on an Ikea night stand and got a concussion. Nowhere in the instructions of the chair does it say that one cannot stand on the chair. Does this have legal merit? This is a serious question...

ONE of the world's foremost meteorologists has called the theory that helped Al Gore share the Nobel Peace Prize "ridiculous" and the product of "people who don't understand how the atmosphere works".

Dr William Gray, a pioneer in the science of seasonal hurricane forecasts, told a packed lecture hall at the University of North Carolina that humans were not responsible for the warming of the earth.

"We're brainwashing our children," said Dr Gray

"It bothers me that my fellow scientists are not speaking out against something they know is wrong," he said. "But they also know that they'd never get any grants if they spoke out. I don't care about grants."

It is sad that so many scientists are afraid to break ranks and tell the truth!

The plan to blame Democrats, is based on Republican expectations "that many more things will get worse for America next year."

Also keep in mind, that next year Republicans are defending (losing) twice as many Senate seats, as are the Democrats, who are defending only half as many as the GOP.

As far as Congressional elections, Polling reports show that Americans are overwhelmingly against electing a Republican to Congress in 2008 (link below)

http://www.pollingreport.com/cong2008.htm

Republicans appear to be facing a "perfect storm" in the 2008 elections, and risk becoming as obsolete as the Whig Know-Nothing party of 1856.

Just curious... if a cop were to pull you over, for example, and you knew you were getting a ticket so you said 'screw you, a**hole', is that legal? I mean, it should be with freedom of speech and all. I'm not looking for answers from the moral police, just people who know the actual law. And no, I did not get pulled over or anything. This is purely hypothetical. Thanks in advance for the answers =)

How can an employer demand that employees be bilingual? I applied for a job and one of the testing requirements is that you pass the written test with a 60% or greater to be considered. Half of the test was in Spanish. I just don't understand this discrimination in U.S.

There was no justice in why I got fired. My boss was very provocative and I thought he was kidding. When I joked back with him, he sent me home..Indiana is an "AT will state" meaning you can be fired for just about anything, but I guess I just want some honesty and integretity to come out of all of this. Any ideas???

I recall hearing this being said before, but recently a former Marine girl also told me this (she was actually very attractive). And anyone here that served in the military knows that it's filled with overweight ugly masculine chicks. I think the essence of the quote "the military is an ugly woman's paradise" falls on the fact that because you possess a vagina, men will be all over you. Ugly women in the military were treated almost as good as beautiful women in the civilian world. Especially in the navy, when you're out at sea and men make up 85% of the ship (in my case). Women that are only average looking will actually start looking "hot" because you've only got ugly girls to compare them with. Ugly girls will look average/decent. Also, females were generally lazy and were excused from doing work by their superiors, and the males usually had to take up their slack (working parties, standing watches, etc.).
