As a whole, I think our generation (Generation X) is the beginning of the end. We have lost respect for those who came before us (our parents, gradparents, etc.) and most importantly, we have lost respect for ourselves. I think we need to take a look at our actions and realize that we are killing ourselves. For example, AIDS. A contagious, yet controllable disease! If we just take the time out and protect ourselves before making a potentially life changing decision like having sex, the number of people infected, per year, could drastically decrease.

And to some of my African American brothers and sisters, I think its time to make a few changes. Do you understand what the civil rights movement meant for us? Essentially (not totally), it evened out the playing field. We are not taking advantage of what was given to us. Our ancestors died trying to give us a better life and we are taking these opportunities to better ourselves for granted.

Something isn't right here. I don't remember the American people ever associating themselves with an owl. And I don't understand the spider web at all. Whats up with that?

I have just seen someone (a grown adult) on Answers quote Lindsay Lohan.... Lindsay Lohan and her words of wisdom... I fcuking ask you??? Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure she's a very nice girl, but Nelson Mandela she ain't!

Is this a sad reflection on what our world is becoming with the people, especially the youth placing more value on celebrity than that of a teacher, nurse or doctor?

The Nit-Wits are taking over and there isn't a damn thing we can do about it!

We had an open house for our neighborhood association this afternoon and for fun and a conversation sustainer, I mentioned the article and asked 50+ people if they cared about this. The tally? None. Yahoo is accessed by 10's of millions of folks who know of Princeton, but don't give it a second thought. Besides, the rankings are completely subjective. Must have been a slow news day.

I was discussing this with my mom today as we wheeled our $100 cart of groceries and other assorted sundries out of the store and got curious about the most anyone spends buying groceries, household items, etc.

I bet there are some itchy fingers, near those buttons...

You see the way it is heading with all the goings on in the world, i feel if those planes had been successfully targeted, I thing we would have took one giant leap towards Nuclear War!

I just want too ask those on both side of the fence here...

Are you prepared to live in a world blown back to the stoneage...

Living in Lawless lands, which has had the land poisoned by nuclear fallout..?

That's if you live too see it!

Is that what You want...

I thought not... well get on then... and stop all these shinanigans and goings on with your rubbish... I'm sick of it now... like many people out there!

Peace... that is what the Majority want!

Peace!

I have only been to the ocean a couple times when i was on a family vacation. we went to The Gulf Shores Alabama it was sweet the sand was white i thought it was cool. we swam in the ocean a couple different times and i boogy boarded that was fun. we went out on the ocean in this 18 foot boat to do some fishing. we almost capsized getting out there though the waves on the main channel were like 10-11ft they were going way over the top of the boat. but once we got out of the channel the water was calm and i caught like 5 fish i think they were King Mackeral. It was fun.

It's seems in Florida, a group of individuals want to have the confederate flag "proudly" displayed on license plates...maybe the sons and daughters of Nazi Germany can have swastika's on their plates so they can "honor a just cause"

NEWS FLASH...

1. The South LOST in the Civil War

2. We KNOW what the real message IS some who displays the confederate flag;Hatred, Bigotry, Fear of someone of another color, Uneducated, Whitetrash, and going NOWHERE fast.

I hope anyone living in Florida gets this message will contact their local DMV and vehemently vocalize this abomination.

God Bless you!

I mean really wouldn't it be great, they would follow your every order, no matter what it was, because if they don't they know they will be punished.
