They call me super-stud! I get laughed at all the time! It's not my fault! Every time I go to a place that has lots of women, every guy in the room ogles me as though I was going to accost their wives. I just want to be sociable!

She called before bedtime and I'm listening to her complain about her job. She's a good friend, so I don't want to cut her off. It was my husband that answered! Help me get her off the phone. Give me a line to tell her.

Be creative.

Ok here is the deal, my girlfriend (1 year) has really pretty feet but will not paint her toenails saying that she prefers the "natural" look. I've told her that its a huge turn on for me, but still no luck. Anyway...this week we have a hypnotist coming to our school and he is a sort of friend. My girlfriend wants to volunteer and I guess I'm asking two things 1. Would it be possible for him to leave a post hypnotic suggestion that she will like painting her toenails? Would it work? 2. Should I get him to do it. Thanks!

I mean something like explicit pornography, torture, flagrantly racist images, etc...? I am NOT a racist, pornographer, sadist, etc., none of that, I'd just like to know if this would entice legal action of any sort against me, and if so, what punishment I'd be facing if I do choose to do so.
By projecting I mean thru the use of a projector, thus, not actually damaging any building, as would be spray painting it, etc. I wouldn't want to damage anything as beautiful as really old buildings, and I think the whole projection idea would circumvent anty vandalism to public buildings charges or whatever.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

capitalism may be a new name, but its essentials have been around since trade & private property started - the market was always free until interfered with by monopoly [wealth concentration], regulation, etc - freemarket=trade - wealth concentration [overpay, unjust fortunes, legal & illegal theft fortunes] is the enemy of the freemarket, of capitalism - the founding fathers based american democracy-freedom-justice on the just limitation of fortunes, the breaking up of aggregations of wealth by prohibiting entail & primogeniture, fixing clergy salaries, warning against the corprtn, by opposing the richgetricheretc, moneymakesmoney -
why is it hard to see that wealth=power, overwealth=overpower=tyranny=war? the undemocratic & unjust automatic slow relentless separation of wealth[=power] & work means the highpowered can hire the lowpowered to plunder & die for them, means the injustice will fuel fires of violence [robbers & robbed] - endlessly increasing [as we see in all of history]

clearly there are many wideopen legal thefts in the economy - as well as the illegal thefts - eg, buy land, others build city, landowners gets paid - eg, inflation an unjust tax - stockmarket reflects national infrastructure growth [created by every worker], & only stockholders get the gain
clearly the incomes & fortunes are not just, ie not proportional to work
clearly the incomes & fortunes are extremely far from just - 225 ppl with as much as 2,500,000,000 ppl -
1% getting 90% of world income, & doing less than 1% of work
clearly richgetricheretc is true & unjust
clearly moneymakesmoney is unjust
clearly transaction is inherently unjust [the two items have to have workvalue of x & x+y, ie have to be different - over trillions of transactions this will move earnings to nonearners steadily]
clearly 'after the first million money multiplies like rabbits' indicates injustice - ditto 'the first $1000 harder to make than the second million' ie, ratio work/pay changes greatly

I can't for the life of me remember his name or what he wrote, but this is what I do know. Maybe you can answer this for me.

After injuring himself, he moved from California to University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for graduate study in sociology.

He's a real big guy.

He published a book in the fifties that was really contraversial because it questioned the value of sports - how in hindered academic success of almost all participants and only like .0000001 percent of athletes become professional.

He makes tons of money consulting for sports teams and wears five giant rings on his fingers.

is there a limit to the amount a person can justly truly earn in a lifetime by their work?
their number of hours work is limited - unlikely to be much more than 50 hrs x 50 weeks x 50 yrs = 125,000 hrs
the hardness of working/hr is limited - the hardest working person cannot work more than 10-20% harder than the average hardness of work PER HOUR - slacking will bring down the average a bit, but noticeable slacking gets fired, so maximum slacking is probably 10-20%
PROVIDED YOU PAY TERTIARY STUDENTS FOR STUDYING [which justice will do, bc it is work] there are no sound reasons for higher than average hrly pay
[risk, responsibility, talent, gifts, brains, brawn, skill, experience, scarcity, rare gifts, etc] turn out on examination to be no reasons for higher than av /hr pay [see arguments in other questions & answers of mine here at yahoo]
personal [nonmachineassisted] productivity must be world income divided by world workhrs = US$15/hr [paying homemakers & students too]

It's said that babies can be soothed/relaxed by playing them the sound of a human heartbeat, because it reminds them of their mother's heartbeat when they were cozy and safe in the womb.

That may be the case with babies, but it's not with me!! For as long as I can remember, I've actively DISLIKED the sound of heartbeats. It makes me feel very uneasy and anxious, and even kind of "creeped out". :( If I hear this sound on TV, in a movie, in a piece of music, or whatever, I immediately want to turn it off.

Does anyone else feel this way? (And if so, do you have any idea why?)

It seems odd that such a natural noise, and one that's supposed to instinctively make us feel good, makes me feel bad. But as odd as anything might be, most likely there are always other folks who feel the same! *chuckle*

...why are so many hundred women still raped every minute? Do you think that teaching women that a 'low blow' is a 'garanteed' escape is giving them a false sense of security? Why aren't women informed that a 'low blow' doesn't usually paralize a man, but merely stalls him? Isn't that information detrimental to the safety of women?

hello everybody. i have a problem (that may seem really minor to some folks, but to me, it's major.) that i'm hoping is similar to someones or if you understand, can help me?

sometimes when i walk into stores or businesses (especially if i'm by myself), i get a little afraid, and i feel ackward. i get these weird feelings like, i wonder how this person is perceiving me. im afraid if i look too serious, or if im not smiling enough, smiling too much, or if i look red (i blush easily).

anyone know what this might be and how i can fix it?

thanks so much!
