My county is considering charging a fee for those who call the rescue squad (911), but our volunteer fire and rescue people are fighting it. They said it would hurt seniors who cannot afford the fee.

What do you think is going to happen approximately 5 years from now in December 2012?
I want you to tell me what YOU YOURSELF think is going to happen, not what you think will happen based on what you've heard or read on the internet.

Because of discrimination, gay people are more likely to feel other people's pain and because of that they are more involved in human rights organizations, civil liberties organizations, anti-poverty organizations, etc. Is my impression correct?

Ever stay up to see his adult variety show the night before, so that you knew what the inside joke was the next day during the kids' show when Soupy and the crew would break up but the kids watching would be clueless about what the joke was?

Remember Soupy's mantra for taking vitamins? "Through the teeth and over the gums: Look out, stomach, here it comes!"

What were his "guests" called? White Fang, for instance. What imitations did he do with sugar cookies?

Most of us have shared about dealing with habitual liars at sometime. A thief is just as toxic.
It has been years but the children have brought home someone who should have never been allowed in our home. I had a sister in law who would visit and years later I would visit her and see a trinket or what not that I knew was mine. Eventually I confronted her and she naturally said No way it was hers. People like that don't seem to ever be embarrassed when they are outed. They tend to act like people are stupid. They know no boundaries they will steal from family and friends. That is if they can maintain a friendship for any length of time.

I'll start off by saying that I am not trying to make light of what those people who were enslaved went through, and I recognize that it was a very bad thing that occurred.

The intent of this question is to ask why it is that presentday African-Americans feel so strongly towards the enslavement of their ancestors. That is something that I can not understand. I could understand being angered by being enslaved oneself or having a close family member or friend enslaved, but ones ancestors are none of these things. In being angry and cursing those who did it, they are failing to recognize that had their ancestors not been enslaved, they probably never would have been born, and their ancestors and their present day descendants would probably still be living in Africa.

Personally, I can't say that I would care if my ancestors had had to endure some hardships so that I could have a better life in a better country (though I don't even like my living relatives much).

Your thoughts?

I really don't like highschool. Getting up early, and leaving in the later afternoon, 5 days a week doesn't make any sense to me. Of course, I appreciate my education, yet alot of the stuff we learn in highschool, will just stay in highschool. When are we ever going to see a Algebra equation, or a chemistry formula? I mean, yes, math is important, but so many of the things we learn in higschool won't matter in 6 years, except for those who are going to pursue something in the medical or engineering field. Yes, I love that we have English. I think English is one of the most important skills you need to have, but math. Wow, Oh math, it's making my GPA SOOO LOW. I hate it! I'm just not really a higschool person, I AM GOING TO LOVE COLLEGE THOUGH, ALTHOUGH, WILL COLLEGES SEE MY GPA AND AUTOMATICALLY NOT EVEN CONSIDER ACCEPTING ME? I WANT TO GO TO MINNESOTA TECHNICAL INSTITUTE AND COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an hour of gathering up his courage, he finally goes over to her and asks, tentatively, "Um, would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?"

She responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, "NO! I won't sleep with you tonight!" Everyone in the bar is now staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table.

After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology, and I'm studying how people respond to embarrassing situations."

To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, "What do you mean $200?!"
