What do think is the possibility that we have met or seen each other in our lives? For all that you know, you have seen me a hundred times over and again.

Not to sound creepy--just intrigued by the thought.

I used to roam around all the places of India! Through out the nation comparatively for auto-drivers I can put 90-95% marks. Once, in Bombay after a long travel, when I happened to give 60 Rupees, for the auto meter which showed 56 Rupees, the auto driver immediately returned the balance 4 rupees! I told him just to keep it! But, showed his face uncomfortable and pressed the money forcibly in to my palm! There I could see 95% drivers are honest! Even at Hyderabad I saw the same good things with the auto drivers! They never demand for out-of-meter, and out-of-fair money! I felt proud about them!!
But, as a resident of Chennai, I feel bad about our Auto-drivers! Here may be 5-10% are good, and remaining 90-95% are not up to the mark!
NO AUTO DRIVER COMES FOR METER CHARGES, BUT DEMANDS UNFAIR, FAIR IN FLAT RATE! NO GOVT. SO FAR COULD CHANGE THEIR BEHAVIOURS! THEY UTTERLY FAILED WITH THESE "STRANGE PEOPLE" AND THEIR PECULIAR SELFISH PSYCHOLOGY!!
Will it be changed ever?

Sitting by herself in a world she doesn't know she See's everything she wants love and attention
people see the scars and ignore it she screams in her mind but no one can hear her
except the thoughts she's always wanted only one place for her is the little corner where she can get away
and have everything she wants only in her dreams is where that happens she rather be dead why live life so invisible she
remembers being little wanting to be a singer in a big crowd the only crowd she has now is the stuffed animals in her dark small room.

Do you, as a fellow human being on this earth, care about all of those people out there in the world that suffer from hunger, AIDS, and other "killers". Does your heart skip a beat when you hear something on the news. Do you shead a tear for all of those who loose their lives everyday to such simple things. Do you Care?

I'm in a feminist studies class and the debate over masturbation came up. Many women claim they do not masturbate and very few will admit to it.

I am curious as to what the true statistic would be (as true as it could be) from anonymous women responses and possibly the reasons for not doing (if you don't).

Simply reply yes or no and add details if you'd like as to your opinions on the subject.

Regards,
g.harvey

In fact, what can we do to protect our sons from false legal accusations, in general. It seems, more and more, many women are accusing men, (especially rich men) falsey for money, advancement, power, or all. Such as the "Duke Lacross" case. How can we stop this injustice?

When I was surfing, I smelled some really awful smell. The smell was very bad. I didn't know what it was coming from. so I continued to surf. Everyday, it used to not smell like that. Then when I fell off my surfboard, there was a human corpse that I landed on. I was so freaked out and scared. I'm not sure how am I going to live that moment down. Any advice on getting over such event?

Does this mean that at certain times someone is stable while at other times they are not? Or does this just mean that someone is mental?

Also, how do you know someone is not right in the head? Like for people on the verge of becoming mental, how do you really know if someone is really mental or not?
