Should I Put her in the freezer and cook her later on and serve her on the dinner table, so she will be with us for every and every.

Or Should I just BBQ her, and throw a party?

my kids were really attached to the cat, and this way she would be with us for ever and ever?

It seems to me that many parents are extremely over-protective and try hard to keep their children in the dark about the issues of the world. I know that there are many who don't do this, but I am surprised to see how many that do.

I knew all about the issues taking place in the world, both the good and the bad, and about the functions of human relationships, and all of that other good stuff, when I was no older than 6.

I was never banned from watching rated R movies, and I saw many horror and psychological thrillers at the same age, and it never bothered me, or screwed me up. I think it does depend on the child, but I was quite mature for my age, and able to understand the difference between fiction and reality. I even used to rationalize things to myself.

My point is, my parents never hid the facts of life from me when I was younger, and now I feel like I am more stable and able to face the world than many other people I know.

What does everyone else think?

Two of the interns at my work are friends who go to the same school, have been friends since freshman orientation. They have the same common (for their generation) first name and same very common last initial. One is black and one is white. They refer to each other as "Black ______" and "White ______" and encourage friends, instructors, and now us to do the same.

Well, someone took offense. I actually think it's kind of cute, and most of us have fallen into using it too, but I wondered what others thought.

In all of my text books, etc, they always read, "African Americans and whites". The more correct term for "whites" would be Caucasian, which means that one's ancestors descended from Caucasia.

Text books should read African Americans and Anglo/Caucasian Americans, or simply blacks and whites, not African Americans and whites, Do you agree?

I know this is sort of last minute, but I need a costume for a Halloween dance that starts in a few hours. We can't wear masks and I am on limited time and budget. I was considering using things around the house. I have a lot of dress clothes so i was thinking something along the lines of that.

I want something elegant but hot. Im a pretty good looking guy but I cant wear anything that makes me half naked. i was thinking of pirate/vampire/european diplomat (since I have a wardrobe of dress clothes) but I need suggestions to make this look complete! Help!

If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.

It's really hard for me to get someone I like. I don't think I have a problem with my look, I have confidence. I have a good sense of humor, and I'm really nice. But, when it comes to guys over here, I'm totally comfortable with them. I have alot of close guy friends, but I just can't seem to get them to be more than that. I'm not a geek or whatever high schoolers and Jr. Highers use these days. Is it because of my race's genetics? This is me.

1. dont even think of mentioning the word faith, saying "its called faith man!" is not proof, it isnt intelligent, and it isnt going to get you anywhere with me.

2. do not ask me to prove that god doesnt exists. the burden is on you to prove that he does since you are the one claiming that god exists. besides, if there is absolutley no evidence either way (and there is a ton for my side) then i think the burden falls on the ones with less proof to explain themselves

3. Do not think about bringing up miracles, science has proven that thousands of so called miracles are totally explainable and not the result of god.

4. Dont talk to me about how i am a lost soul or a bad person. I am happier than i ever was when i tried to be religious. there is one thing i hold above all else, The TRUTH. and the truth is a funny thing. we all know what the truth is deep down in our hearts, we just have to be strong enough to accept it.

please respond only with logical proof's or disproof's

I was walking to the sporting goods shop after school last Friday to get myself the red Dwyane Wade jersey that I have always wanted. It's exactly $20. When I got to the plaza, a homeless man in his fifties approached me. He told me he hadn't eaten for 4 days and asked for money. I had a 20 dollar bill and 65 cents in one pocket.

I considered splitting the 20 and giving him maybe 3-4 dollars. But I wouldn't have $20 anymore. And the bank would never let me go in because I'm 13 and my parents weren't with me.

In the end, I just gave him 65 cents. I think I should have been more generous. I could easily wait a couple more days to buy that jersey.

I THINK he later saw me walk out of the store, so he knew I had more money than that. I felt really guilty. He and I also had a brief chat about Jesus, and he asked me to pray for him too. That makes me feel even worse because he knows I'm a Christian, but I didn't give my all for him the way Jesus would have. Was I too selfish?
