I'm primarily wondering about Catholic practice, but other demoninations please chime in too. Once it's blessed, are there restrictions on how it's discarded?

An old woman is riding in an elevator in a very lavish New York City building when a young, beautiful woman gets into the elevator, smelling of expensive perfume. She turns to the old woman and says arrogantly, "Romance" by Ralph Lauren, $150 an ounce!"

Then another young and beautiful woman gets on the elevator, and also very arrogantly turns to the old woman saying, "Chanel No. 5, $200 an ounce!"

About three floors later, the old woman has reached her destination and is about to get off the elevator. Before she leaves, she looks both beautiful women in the eye, then bends over and farts and says, "Broccoli - 49 cents a pound.

has anyone ever done anything so nice for you that you just want to cry ?
a friend has just offered to do something for me , and although I feel strange agreeing ... I am blown away by her generosity and kindness
I am in an awkward position though
I dont want her to do this for me , but she is doing it out of the kindness of her heart .... and I feel bad saying no , yet feel bad saying yes
what do you do at times like this ?
I need advice
accept it with love ? .... or say no because I dont want to put her out ?

Will you get offense if I listen to Chinese music on myspace and my room. You are my friends and you are visiting my myspace and my place. You hear the music, but you don't understand. Will you get offense?

I am an Asian, but I am in America for an education. Do I need to listen to American/Englsih Music as all time? Will you understand if I have to speak to my parents in my language. Please advice. Thank you.
