If we need people to do the work we don't want to do- Surely they must have somewhere to go to at night and rest? Otherwise they won't be able to do the work we don't want to do. I am 15.

I am 18, and I would like to learn some ways to speak more articulately, act more serious and maturely, and to move in a more fluid, graceful, feminine way. I am tired of walking, sitting, and digging change out of my pockets like a clod. I would also like to learn how to communicate better and come across as poised and intelligent. I am not trying to not "be myself", I would just like to IMPROVE myself. Thank you! =)

With all of the recent press on the subject of how screw-ups in the adminstration of the "cocktail" of drugs used to execute prisoners can result in unintended pain, I am surprised that more has not been said (or asked) about how this execution process compares with the (lethal injection) process used to euthanize pets and animals. I have been present when a pet has been put down. My impression is that the animal experiences virtually nothing. They seem to literally "melt" away instantly. If this is the case, it would seem that the serum used on pets (or something similar) would be the serum of choice for prison executions. I am sure that there is good reason as to why death by lethal injection is more complicated in the case of humans. If so, I would like to understand why.

On the other hand, if it is possible that animals may only appear to "melt away" when being euthanized (while possibly experiencing something less "humane"), then I would like to be aware of this too.

This woman at work was transferred a year ago for harassing me. She is now back and - knowing that I am highly allergic to perfume - has decided to start pouring it on. The management ruled that she can wear whatever perfume she wants - my allergies don't matter. Perfume makes me lightheaded and my chest tightens.

She has been working for this company for 4 years - I have been there for 22 years and am not going to quit. I have a little over 12 years to go to retiremet with a very generous pension.

People please give us a break. Your home improvements are about as boring as hearing some middle aged guy talk about his retirement savings investments. What's with this whole "cocooning" thing anyhow? I thought only geeks bragged about staying at home........

Are Italians really white, or do they just say that because of American standards. Most of them don't look white.

Are you concerned about us as people, or are just concerned about meeting a quota? No muslim has ever asked me what I think or how I feel. All I hear is a 'convert to Islam' commercial.

Do you think people REALLY are just joining fraternal organizations (you know the "secret handshake" dudes and dudettes) for what they can get out of the association financially?
I don't mean any particular organization, but there are several of this type.
Haven't you known people who worked like slaves, worked to achieve a good education and so on, yet didn't so much as have two dimes to rub together 'til they joined the (such and such) lodge!!!???

A school in Attleboro, Massachusetts has banned flag football, tag and any 'unsupervised' chasing games from being played at the school during recess. They claim it is dangerous and that the school is worried over being sued if someone gets hurt during one of these activities.

Is this going to an extreme and micro-managing the children and their recess activities?

Please share your thoughts and opinions on this.

I'm a Christian and argue with the things Robertson and Falwell say, and the Bush administration. You'd think you'd hear more from muslims condeming the rampant terrorism in their faith. Whatever.

I would like to be a lot more friendly. I would like to make people comfortable in my home. Once I get rolling i'm pretty friendly. It's the askward newness, I usually have to be approached first. I think its a gift, to make people feel that way. The thing is i'm not shy or a push over, I don't know what it is, I can come off icy. I don't like that about myself, and I don't mean too, and i'm aware of it while i'm doing it.
