Its been recently claimed that the level of Brits heading abroad to start new lives in foreign lands has increased quite considerably. The most popular destinations are said to be USA, France, Spain & Australia (obviously there are other places in addition to these)

So then if you had the chance to emigrate, where would you goto and why? ALSO what would your reason(s) be for leaving UK anyway?

I did live in Japan in for four years which was good but to actually emigrate i might choose US or Aus. I think Britain is becoming too messed up with liberal do-gooders making the UK a bit of a laughing stock!

We constantly warn our children about the dangers of accidentally "having someone's eye out" as the result of certain types of play. But has it ever happened?

Ancient Greeks were the nation to set the basis of modern western civilization. How you explain that while they were such a wise nation, they were still tolerant towards homosexuality? (some even say they and practised it in large scale)

I've been looking at some of these questions posted by "trolls". (If you don't know what trolls are, go look it up)

They say things that are offensive, such as "***** are fu**ing ugly!". Really racist, huh? But the funny thing is... they tell you they're White, Black, Chinese, Indian... (NOT their real ethnicities). And what happens? Idiots that go on Yahoo! Answers respond by saying "F**k you ______!!!"

The troll wins. The troll successfully conjured up feelings of hate. You guys blow.


Moral: Use your brain on the World Wide Web.

I was wondering can anyone tell me if the ancient Britons were a Celtic race? When i say ancient Britons I mean the people that populated England, Wales and to a lesser extent scotland when the Angles and the Saxons invaded.

Do you think it's okay to kill an unborn child, although it was your mistake and it's technically murder?

I don't think I would ever be able to do such a thing!

The African-American pot washer was listening to his blues once in 1996 when I was working at Hershey Hall in UCLA. The song he was listening to said, "...I got the mojo blues..." etc., etc. I remembered back home in Fresno County I used to eat Mojo potatoes with melted nacho cheese, but this was obviously a completely new use of the word. Actually, I'd heard it many times before, usually in blues songs, but I'd never actually asked anyone what it meant. I just figured it meant something like "a lot" or "heavy," as in, "I've got the heavy blues" tonight.

Anyway, so I asked the pot washer, "What's a mojo?" and he had this delayed reaction, where he just stopped scrubbing what he was scrubbing, and without turning around to face me, tilted his head back toward the ceiling and opened his mouth: "Aaaaaa-haaa haaaaaa haaa-haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-ha ha ha-ha-ha-ha...!" He just laughed like that and never answered me, so I left.

So now, 10 years later, "What's a mojo?"

Not really a question, but I like this time of day when Australians, British, and even commoners like me (in northeastern US) are all on line.

Just saying hello. Also to South Africa, New Zealand and other English-speaking areas I have seen on here. The world is really getting smaller!

Where are you?

Have a great day/night!

Do people really think he's a gangster. After he went to the hospital and miraculously recoverd from his nine bullets, he went straight to NYPD and snitched on the guy who shot him. What kind of a gangster seeks help from the police department? He took his name from a real NY gangster, who was 5 foot and nearly killed every criminal in his path. Is this how you guys do it in New York?

World war 3 will start from an escalation of the middle east violence between the arab nations and Israel. Once The Saudi Arabian oil is no more America will abandon the richest arab country , like it did Sadam and Afghan fighters including Bin Laden back in the days, tha Saudi Arabian kings will not last forever , new republics will be born in the oil rich countries and particularly saudi arabia who has bought massive amounts of american weaponry will use them against Israel under the new young republic. America will protect Israel , but countries like Indonesia and Pakistan ( who has nuclear capacity) and iran will fight against america and its allies , China and Russia , North Korea will back the arabs.........and all hell will break loose
