...and Canada? Do Americans think that Canada has a president? What do you know about Canada? If you've met a Canadian, can you tell we're from a different country (ex, accents) or just from the U.S.

Isn't a hotel a temporary "home". Without a person or animal with me, I cannot fully enjoy the accomodations due to my disability.

There is a difference between a person who seeks to learn about american Indian Culture or looking for their ancestry...Im talking about a person who wants to be involved in the culture whether they have blood ties or not...they mimic what they see in the movies and television and read white-washed books that explain things from a NON-INDIAN point of few...He/she thinks all his gained knowledge is all he/she needs to be indian when in fact they know little or nothing at all about being Indian.....In most cases they have never even been around REAL Indians...they also belong to twink tribes and own trinkets from gas stations..... to Sitting Bull shirts made in Korea...I doubt if anyone would actually admit to being one....lol ...I think many watched "Dances with Wolves" too many damn times.....another word I dislike is Shaman....alot of them will use that word also.....

I have a boyfriend (for about 7months) and we love each other very much but he thinks it's ok for us to have sex with other people. He thinks feelings and emotions are intimate while sex isn't so it's just something physical (while we still "keep" our emotions for each other). So, my question is can "casual" sex with others jeopardize our relationship or is it harmless? I personally prefer monogamy and I don't know should I be woried.

We were at taco bell (ok sounds like a setting for a bad joke, i know) which i know of course isnt authentic food at all, but anyways, & my dad kept on pronouncing guacamole wrong, i kept on correcting him (he pronounced the g.) I must of had to correct him 12 times during our dining there. Then they messed up our order, charging us for several guacamole orders when we only ordered one. (to be continued.........)

Is the idea of being a "gentleman" or a "lady" a thing of the past? Something that people only pretend to do now, if they do? What about heroes and heroism, does that also belong to another (more idealistic) era?

do not have enough time?

I noticed that people a long time ago had time to be courteous, helpful, well-mannered, and dress clean and neat, regardless of social status. To enjoy those, lazy, hazy days of summer. Why do we have to rush through life? Why is everything so fast pace? What happened?

I'll be there with a friend who has MS and walks with a stick. So any suggestions on what we could do for the day would be great. Thanks!

Or would you have the pet put to sleep if you could not afford the medication (which has vomiting as a common side effect). Mind you, the medication does not cure but stabilizes a condition. An example: A 14 year old cat.

I'm Japanese and a new flight attendant for a Japanese airline company and my boss told me that I should talk in English to non-Asian customers.

Is this just good service or one of racism? There are many Asian customers who aren't Japanese. What about them? and What about Europeans or Africans who speak Japanese by their practice?

I think I should talk in Japanese to any cutomers first and if they ask me to speak English, then I should start talking in English.

What do you think?

We, of the LGBT community are continually being asked if we would accept a "cure" for homosexuality. Most of those asking tell us their question is out of curiosity, compassion or out of downright hatred. They most of the time start their questions with "I'm not gay.....". Do you think those people have insecurities regarding their own sexual preference and use this LGBT board for our opinions or are they just trying to raise hell and infuriate us?

That there IS actual homosexuality in animals!!! Here is an example: In the New York Central Park Zoo they had a gay penguin couple who would use a smooth pebble/rock as there egg! The Zoo keepers switched the rock with an actual fertile egg and they hatched it and raised it as their own. So tell me this...... Did they choose to be gay? For the people who dont know penguin couples stay together for life and mate. So can this be an enlightening experience for the ones who think its a choice??? Hehe hmmm i wonder if im gonna get chewed out.... lol

My source for this Information is Wikipedia I think thats how you spell it. How did i come across this article? Ok type in homosexuality in the yahoo search bar. Then click on the link that says Wiki-homosexuality. Its somewhere in there. I love wikipedia, you just might learn something if you read alot of that stuff =]

I work on the sales floor at JCPennies and am always seeing hot guys. Is it ok to ask people out I am helping or ask for their number or is that bad? Also, I am gay and like guys. I think woman will sooner complain about harassment than a man. I mean, it's not like I am going to harass the person. I would just like to ask the guy's I like for their number and if they say 'no', I will go back to doing my job and it will be done. Do u think this is a bad idea though and I should just stick to my job without asking out hot customers?

you have a hard time hearing? It seems today when you just want to have lunch, there is always so much background noise in the restaurants. I tried eating outdoors, but a speaker is placed out there as well. If we are in a group, I can only hear those to the right of me (hearing in left not so good). This is with the use of a hearing aid which picks up every sound but what you want to hear. How do you cope?
