It doesn't seem to work for me. I have a real good belly laugh and think I must tell so and so but, sometimes, even though I remember the punch line, I tell the joke so badly everybody laughs in sympathy!

A lot of nerds at my school don't believe that they are nerds. They think they are the exact oposite, popular. How can theythink this? Don't they notice that nobody talks to them or that they stink and wear ugly clothes? How can they ignore that there is a group of popular, clean, well-dressed people that everyone talks to and wants to join?

I had to do a science report so I picked Haplogroups. I noticed that American Indians and one haplogroup from Caucasians match what does this mean?

Sub-Saharan African: L0, L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6, L7
West Eurasian: H, T, U, V, X, K, I, J, W (all listed West Eurasian haplogroups are derived from macro-haplogroup N)[3]
East Eurasian: A, B, C, D, E, F, G (note: C, D, E, and G belong to macro-haplogroup M)
Native American: A, B, C, D, X
Australo-Melanesian: O, P, Q, S

I thought American Indians were not white or asian!?

A man and a woman were having dinner in a fine restaurant. Their waitress, taking another order at a table a few paces away noticed that the man was slowly sliding down his chair and under the table, with the woman acting unconcerned.

The waitress watched as the man slid all the way down his chair and out of sight under the table. Still, the woman dining across from him appeared calm and unruffled, apparently unaware that her dining companion had disappeared.

After the waitress finished taking the order, she came over to the table and said to the woman, "Pardon me, ma'am, but I think your husband just slid under the table."

The woman calmly looked up at her and replied firmly, "No he didn't. He just walked in the door."

I was dating this guy (he's bi) fairly strong for about a year, then he decided that he couldn't handle it - stating he wasn't ready for a relationship and our feelings for each other were too strong. He stated that he had some priorities to deal with financial and family (two kids w/ ex wife), and he abruptly cut me off - although we still spoke occasionally. I never told him how much I really loved him, and maybe that was a mistake - I didn't want to pressure him. Later I saw he was online a lot on a gay dating site, and I know he was "getting his groove on." A couple months ago he reemerged - started calling and wanting to go out again, but not as often as before. I learned that he was dating an old girlfriend all summer and still is (he cut her off when we dated), but a couple weeks ago he was with me intimately, and he deleted his account on the gay site a couple weeks ago. I am confused about his intentions - What does he really want from me? Should I tell him how I love him?

Just "who" intended this and "how" did they intend this. If you say God is the "who" and he/she/magician intended it, HOW did he do so. By continually making gay people and making them fall in love.

I think people follow this philosophy of the intention of men and women are supposed to be together, and don't even know from whence or where the philosophy comes from (other than parroting Bible Verses which mean nothing). The Bible does not govern the land UNLESS you are a follower and believer of it. If you are supposed to be with the opposite sex, then great for you, otherwise, it was INTENDED for me to be with a female...

A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The weather ahead is good and therefore we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now, please sit back and relax... Oh my god!"

The passengers sat in silence, waiting for terrible news.

Then, the captain came back on the intercom and said "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier, but while I was talking, the flight- attendant brought me a cup of coffee and spilled the hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my pants!"

A passenger in Coach said, "That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!"

Jerry received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully-grown with a bad attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was an expletive. Those that werent expletives were, to say the least very rude. Jerry tried hard to change the birds attitude and was constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and set a good example. Nothing worked. He yelled at the bird and the bird yelled back. He shook the bird and the bird just got angrier and became even more rude. Finally in a moment of desperation. Jerry put the parrot in the FREEZER. For a few moments he heard the bird squawk and kick and scream. Then suddenly, there was a ---- -Not a sound for half a minute. Jerry was frightened that he might have hurt the bird and quickly opened the freezer door. The Parrot calmly stepped out onto Jerrys extended arm and said: "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I will endeavor at once to correct my behavior. I really am
