I'm trying to understand why we continue to print and coin so much currency when the value of it gets lower and lower.

Is this the Dumbest invention in the history of Mankind?

Genus Digital Radio Alarm Clock

I thought I would buy a digital radio alarm clock. Why not treat myself as I have quit smoking? So I did. However. When plugged in the radio emitts a rather loud buzzing sound that annoys the person who is trying to sleep.
But that is not all it also gives off a very bright glow so that it also stops the person from going to sleep. Am I going insane or did these designers not even check the product before production started?
So I have an expensive alarm clock. I paid approx £70.00 ($137.90) for and it keeps me awake so that I unplug it and don't use it!
I am not insane just annoyed that this product simply does not work as I intended it to. So I have bought another alarm clock for £5.00 (Silent). Could I get my money back for this dumb invention? Is it the dumbest invention known to mankind?

I'll never cheat, but that disturbs me in a way. So many people cheat in school and in life. Maybe I should join the club.

I really don't know what to think about anything or life any more. I get like mad depressed, start laughing at myself, crying, and wanting to die all at the same time, and think that the only thing I can really relate to is Twiztid's music. It is like their is 2 sides to me, one side is like you have a really good life, people who care about you, and should never give up on your dreams, and the other side is like your life is going to crash burn in the near future and you should give up now, no one cares if your alive or dead, you have no friends, you will NEVER understand life until it is too LATE, i feel like no one knows how i am feeling deep inside because if i told you would just say i'm crazy and need professional help. And if I go their they would just look at me like im f*cking retarded. CAN ANYONE HELP.

Their whole being was black, the area where the face would normally be was more of an empty space. These dreams would occur in about the same setting, also, i'd age in the dreams as i aged in real life [...] In these dreams i would always be saving my family from being captured from these 'men'. I'd run and hide my family, fight against these 'men'. In every dream i'd succeed and awake in fear. For a couple years i didn't have these dreams until one night it happened again. This time i awoke and was chained by my hands and feet to my bed. I was in my current room, except there were torches lit around the room and standing in front of my bed were those 'men', about 20 of them starring at me. I remember trying to make myself wake up by shaking my head and blinking my eyes, but it didnt work. Last thing i know one is standing beside me swinging a sword at my throat. They kill me by beheading. Since then i haven't had these dreams (this was about 11 years ago). - I was 3 when they started.

Why is it that when a guy is an ******, he thinks it's okay but the SECOND someone gives him attitude or shows him what it feels like he bitches about it? Does anyone understand that? I am pretty guyish, mentally, but that's one thing I don't get. A lot of girls are like that too, but I think they expect it more, guys just think they can do it without any reprecussions.

Guys, why is this? I know some guys aren't like this but the majority of guys I've seen in my life are so shocked when someone shows them a bit of attitude, and shows them what it feels like to be rude or whatever. Any answers?

If you’ve single and dating and will only go out with men who make a certain amount of money, who are ‘financially secure’, or if, when meeting a man for the first time, you instantly start prying into his life to find out what he does for a ‘living’, what area of town he lives in, what kind of car he drives (if you’re in a parking lot) to get an instant measure of his income or worth....aren’t you really saying to yourself, to single men and the world in general that you have a price tag, a specific level that your affections, your love, your companionship, can be bought for?

Is his ‘finacial security’ paramount in your dicision to date him? Or is it one of the less important things you consider when getting to know someone?

I’m not talking about extreme cases here, like dating a homeless guy or Bill Gates. I’m talking about average guys vs. doctors, lawyers, etc.

Be honest.

I asked that question because I heard that men are given preferential treatment in the workforce and in politics because they are seen as strong and aggressive. But I also heard women receive preferntial treatment by the law in many cases because they are seen as weak and needed to be protected. In totality who is the more discriminated sex?

was about. I asked the readers of this board to go to either www.moscowtochicago.com or www.lulu.com and to buy there as many books as one can. The reason of this request is the fact that my husband-Wayne D. Pickette (see Google) needs to finish and implement his inventions, which are the only available currently solution simultaneously for global warming problem and fuel prices. He is well known as semi-official pioneer of microprocessors, and he has the solution of the most urgent problem of our time-global warming. It is, of course, the national shame that such person needs to accumulate money for this invention through ways I am using now, but our government has behaved extremely despikable way pertinent to global warming within more than the decade by now. And that is the implication. So, instead of fighting me, better help yourself, buying books on the webs, mentioned above, and get cars, working on any fuel and without polution within the reasonable while of time, like 1 year.

I keep having dreams where I find myself underwater. I hold my breath until I physically hurt, then take a breath and can breathe underwater. Does this mean anything in particular? Can I possible be holding my breath outside of my dream, therefore causing pain?

"Fear is only in our minds,
but it's taking over all the time..."

The lyrics of Evanescence's new track Sweet Sacrifice pose the following question: How often does one's preconceived notions of what reality is act as a screen that prevents the world from convincing one otherwise? How can we know what's real and what's our imagination? What are you afraid of? Is this fear in your mind or is it real?

Its pretty spontaneous when I come up with lies. Sometimes I pause for a moment, think it over, and spit out the truth. I don't do it all the time, only for the most shameful things I've done. Its pretty hard to admit things when people expected better out of you and you let them down. I don't know if I am the only one who does this, but that doesn't matter because I know it's becoming a problem and it just gets me stuck in a deeper whirlpool of lies.
