I'm no fan of GW Bush, but I'd like to give him a well done on using four letter words when talking about other G8 leaders. I'm not one for cussing, but if maybe our politicians would use more four letter words in public it may show they're more like one of us. Except for the fact that all the "beeping" you'd hear on the radio and television would probably drive us nuts.

Have you noticed how spoiled and demanding people are now? If they can't get what they want (even if they didn't pay for it, or deserve it) they throw tantrums like children. Curious to hear any theories about why it is people are increasingly becoming more and more pretentious, snotty, condescending, and ungrateful.

Imagine knowing that members of your family are valuable merchandise and could be shipped to a distant land to perform forced labor! If you lived in a world where slavery exists, you might develop a new ATTITUDE ABOUT THE SWEETNESS OF FREEDOM AND THE VALUE OF LIFE! What do you think of this??... I know slavery doesn't even come to the point in the world we are living now... but I want to know what people's opinions.

We can produce world class leaders like MM Lee or even PM Lee but somehow in areas of sports, entertainment, business etc, we are not even close to our neighbours. We can even produce world class academics like Dr. Tony Tan, excel in Mathematics and Science globally, but it seems that's all we can do as Singaporeans. Is Singapore just an academic society where only the best scholars get the best jobs? Are we regressing into a society where only good academic results counts ? No creativity, no genius like Albert Einstein but only people who are groomed from young to work for goverment organisations and the MNCs?

Users, why would you post questions or answers that are otherwise insightful and interesting in all lowercase? I realize that you can still be understood just as well, but it looks kind of sloppy. So why? Are you lazy? Making a statement? Is your keyboard broken? Enlighten me!

Your body generate the electric power to make the microprocessor function. Human will not need mobile phone to call another person that would really save cost. Operating system (Microsoft platform, Linux, Macintosh and etc) and Application program (example CAD, etc )that can make our live easier and enable our brain to think and imagine new things that has been embeded into the hard disk. The hard disk and microprocessor only as tiny as a battery watch.

While answering a question about why we can't ask things like "Who likes steak", I said that the question needed to be more thought provoking, like--
Who here would like to eat steak while Alice Cooper rubs your shoulders and Jerry Springer dances the hula for your enjoyment?
So, who here would like that?
My own answer would be- ....um, no.

Like, I was always wondering if they are, than it must be Bill Gates, or Profesor Ian Wilmut who invented cloning. How do some people get so much use of their brain, and then teach the others? I know to some this is stupid, but please, humor me.

I live on a street that's about 150 meters long, and comes to a dead end. There's tons of kids on this street, and they are ALWAYS outside. The younger ones (3-12 years old) roam the streets without parental supervision, even the 3 & 4 year olds. They stand in the middle of the street even if cars are coming and don't move, you actually have to drive around them or sound the horn (and the neighbours give you a dirty look if you honk). The older ones, 16-20 smoke up and drink all the time, and they smash beer bottles on the street infront of their own house. People in the neighbourhood complained that I drive too fast down this stretch, so the city had 2 speed bumps layed down today. How stupid and a waste of money that is. What do you think? Or am I the obnoxious one because I happen to come down the street once a day and expect to be able to get home without having to hit a kid?
