i dont get why people especially teens my age like to go out and do drugs at a party? i dont get whats so great about getting "baked" and making a fool out of ur self. arent they worried about their health? 1 in 3 high school kids have said that they've experimented with drugs atleast once, i just dont get it. what do u get by making a fool out of urself? drinking also makes u look like an idiot, but it wont kill u, unless ur an alcoholic. drugs can though, but still kids do them, even in my school, which is set in a pretty safe northern virginia town. I think its funny to see a stoned person, but its also a bad practice.

I sometimes come across the 360 of an exclusive lesbian which is gorgeous. I look at her friends who are all gorgeous lesbians also. If I click on their friend's pictures I find the 360s of hundreds of gorgeous women who are exclusively lesbian. My Q is: are there that many gorgeous women out there that don't want anything to do with men and what did we men do to turn them against us.

I overheard a conversation at lunch today. Two men were talking about the possibility that if every state raised their sales tax by 1%, the combined yearly total for the extra 1% of every state going to the Federal Government would eradicate the need for Income Taxes for John Q. Public and we would enjoy a larger paycheck. Any mathemeticians out there able to do the math on this?

Because if I say too little, then perhaps I was less helpful, but if I say too much, then perhaps I insulted his/her intelligence.

(BTW I couldn't figure out a better category for this.)

In a nutshell Whites are mutated inbred albinos. Scientifically speaking biologists say that white skin is a result of adaptation to climate, but let’s pay close attention to that for a minute. When we think of an adaptation to something, we think of acquiring physical traits and characteristics that would make us successful in surviving the environment. Let us understand what White skin means biologically and genetically. White skin does not meet the criteria for being a result of climatic adaptations.

Scientists write that White skin is an adaptation to northern cold climates. The lack of melanin has proven to be non-beneficial but actually detrimental to cold climates, technically. Melanin has thermal regulating properties in that it absorbs all forms of heat and energy and can actually allow a person to warm up quicker after coming out of the cold and keeps them warmer longer while in a cold environment.

The person has to have the nice car, the nice clothes, the good looking pair of shoes, and it really doesn't matter that nice car them nice shoes that nice house, they all will not matter in the end and yet we live or lives so impatiently so materialisticly and so selfishly it's absolutely redundant. If we continue to live a materialistic lifestyle then there are going to be consquences to that action and they are very noticeable now in todays society. When is our society goiong to wake up, its time for a new revaluation its time to take control its time to step up it time to stop conforming to the hypercritical ways of others and the ways of the american dream of the big house nice cars three kids white pickett fence the typical suburban home. It time to turn and make our own society one that its employee's own the business that they work for and one that does not have to depend on oil but could use ethenol to fuel the nations automobiles one the the american people to not only have,

The other can say if a guy will go out with a gay, if he's a maniac, go out with prostitutes,an uncorruptible guy and so on.They just say they sensed it an i've check them and they really are.
