Over 2000 years ago a clever chap once asked this question.
Why is it taking so long to figure out the answer?

I know that people with different personalities can be attracted to one another, yes, but what is your take on POLAR opposites? (Such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator INTJ vs ESFP personalities.)

Just curious.


--And please don't copy and paste an entire page if that's all your answer would be... A link is sufficient enough.
Also, I would deeply appreciate personal commentary. I want personal commentary. I would rather personal commentary.

Thank you. =)

I work every day and still can't afford my own teeth!
as long as greed prevails and those who support it fail to realize that it vitiates their happiness as well I think not!

A young man and his date were parked on a back road some distance from town. They were about to have sex when the girl stopped.

"I really should have mentioned this earlier, but I'm actually a hooker and I charge $20 for sex." The man reluctantly paid her, and they did their thing.

After a cigarette, the man just sat in the driver's seat looking out the window. "Why aren't we going anywhere?" asked the girl.

"Well, I should have mentioned this before, but I'm actually a taxi driver, and the fare back to town is $25..."

I am writing a story which is taking place in a nother planet inhabited by human like creatures. The story is a satire. The characters I want to name have the following traits:
1- A young girl who had a strict religious up bringing , her temper is furious but she is deseperatly in love with the main character, she is also his cousin.
2- A Young boy who was brought up to have a profound respect for science and a rather haughty attitude towards religion. He is always using scientific expressions when he talks, and is almost always dul. he is calm and calculating but couldn't help being arrogant.
3- the main character. He is a typical dreamer, a bit crazy, moves quickly and acts quickly and his eyes radiate with morbid intelligence.

I wish to have names for those three characters, which are not earthly names, do not belong to any earthly language, yet are very expressive of the above traits of each character, can you help?

Pegging the Yuan low to the dollar creates a trade surplus with the US, but causes a breakeven trade balance with the rest of the world. WHY?

I've heard multiple accounts of people behaving strangely before they wind up dying. Whether it is talking to deceased family members, or giving advice on something that winds up happening in the future. Has anyone had an experience with a deceased relative where this has happened? Care to share your opinion of why this phenomenon may happen before someone dies?

Given nearly an infinite amount of time (the earth is 4.6 billion years old) in a universe which is 20 billion years old, we may not be the last in the chain, of ever-evolving homonids. Perhaps in a 100,000 years, something more intelligent than what we classify ourselves as today (wise or knowing man), we will replace Homo Sapiens, as the dominant mammal of the earth...

Simply put, evolution begins with errors during DNA replication. Most of these errors are unsuccessful, and disappear. However, a very small number of these "errors" survive, and lead to successful mutations.

An example of successful mutations, would be Blood Types "A" & "B", which successfully mutated from "O". As we have surpassed Homo Erectus and Neanderthals, do you think it is possible that Homo Sapiens can be surpassed?

I'm just wondering what makes you feel better on a day when you just feel down. I'm looking for things that I can do by myself...ie. take a bath, read, etc. Thanks in advance.

For example, why do some countries not have clean water they can drink. Why is their poverty in more than half of the world when the other half lives in luxury?

LOL just kidding, it's just me, not Oprah. But I love Oprah so I had to include her. =p

Anyway, I have a lot of goals and things I want to get done but I think 'it isn't worth it' much of the time. I want to make something really HUGE and big for my best friend but I have a hard time sticking with it. What are some tips on motivating yourself? Thanks for anybody that answers. =)

Or in other words 'what would Oprah do!!!'

I hear alot of women (mostly caucasians and asians) that try so hard to look as skinny as possible. Why? Are you doing this because "women" or the media say having curves are unattractive?

I could only picture white and asian guys(the majority of them) wanting a women with a smaller, boyish frame which is strange. Black, latino and a small percentage of caucasian men like curves. Women were built differently from men for a reason. Personally, a cutie without a booty doesn't have a chance with me. Call it shallow if you want, but she just doesn't look very feminine to me if her backside sinks in as she walks. I don't want to touch her and certainly don't want to see her in the nude.

It also seems people getting what a nice booty looks like confused. men want a small waist(flat stomach) and a rounded shape. it's not about the size just as long as it's balanced with the rest of the body. Check out picks of Vida Guerra and than tell me paris hilton is more sexy. Not!!
