It seems to me that it's only made people dumber, and it's a bit creepy. I mean, you're forced to hand your children over to complete strangers to be indoctrinated by the state to the point that people can't imagine a world without school. The weird thing about school is also that you don't learn anything that you really use outside of school, so why are people locked away for twelve years to learn stuff they'll never use? They go so slowly, it's scary.

To me it's obvious that school is a very bad thing. The Last of the Mohicans was a book people read for fun in the 1820s, before compulsory schooling came to America. Now it's college-level. Wtf? People can't have evolved to be dumber in 180 years.

The main reason I think school is a stupid idea: teenagers have more energy and devotion than they ever will again. Think of the effort kids can put in to video games or skateboarding. Imagine what would happen if they could go in to the real world.

I'm just looking for opinions.

Where in the world would you live, outside the USA, if your criteria was a comfortable climate, reasonable cost of living, friendliness of people and employment opportunities?

I've experience competitive people out there. I always seen those who don't care much and are content to live simple lives. I've seen man beat 100 metres under 10 secs.

Is it possible to be under 9 or even 8? What is the absolute limit? Why do we test ourselves so much?

This is something that i have heard, so probably are just rummors, if you have experience with other "races" women or men, do you think that they are better in "bed" than people of your same race?

Please dont understand this question as racist.. i just want to know your opinion based on experience, and why.

Thnx for the time ..... and dont forget smile

I know Christ was killed on the cross which leads me to this reasoning. If my son was killed by a gun, I sure wouldn't want to wear a tiny gun on a necklace. Make sense???

I dont get most of you people. Why do you all have a serious, angry problem with marijuana. Its legal in most other countries, its not even bad for you. If you have never puffed the ganja than i think you shouldnt be able to say anything about it, you cant go by thoese dumb *** "above the influence" commercials, and what the media says. I smoke almost everyday and im not a coke head, i dont other drugs, im going to college and mainting a solid B average, so tell me what the big deal is?

Every kid loves that little idiot. He wasn't around during my Sesame Street days. I have had enough of him. I don't like how he refers to himself in the third person: "OH, Elmo wants to go to the store. Elmo likes Dorothy." Is there any way to get rid of him?

Do a search on sex offenders in your area and an overwhelming percentage of them are black. Why is this?
