It's sad isn't it. Did you hear about it on the news?

It was very very late on tonights news. I don't live in the USA by the way.

But the bridge collapse in the USA was first thing on the news, 6 people died.

Why do we hear all the sob stories from the USA, but the rest of the world hardly even makes the news. It's so terrible if it happens in the USA, we are all made to feel so sorry and terrible that this happened. Anywhere else, it's hardly significant!

Does anyone else feel this?

i use drugs in high school all the time and i find it helps take away the bordem and lets me get stuff done. High school is like a illegal drug store you can get anything you want either during school or right after. All people who say drug use is evil only take there opinions into consideration and dont give people the right to think for them selves and i find them disgusting.

What the worse thing is is that these so called "crusaders" for a drug free america sip on vodka every night while they curse all other drugs to hell

I heard that if you want to see your gp you can only see them for approximately 7 and a half minutes. If you were really really ill you would still have to make the journey to see your doctor whereas approximately thirty years ago your gp would only be too happy to come out to you. There have been many changes to the gp agenda over the years and all the time it has a negative effect on the patient. I believe gp's of today get paid far too much money for doing very little. I would go as far to say that nurses in hospitals do more work and get paid far less than any gp. What do others think?

And im talking about complex subjects that most are unaware of or rather ignorant about. I mean ok so you judge someone harshly because this someone is speaking the truth. Is it because this person id going against their beliefs and there is a slight coincence in them that says "yes this could be true" so it angers them because this belief they stood by for so long might actually be a lie?..and they just refuse to change their mind about it because they are scared of change? I'm just trying to figure out why people are so terrible to eachother, i mean one tries to help and your treated like garbage (generally speaking) theres so much disrespect for eachother its scary as to what migh happen if it gets out of control.
Please no immature answers that will only prove my point.
Thaaaaaanks all:)

For me, anyone who is into that automatically registers to me as a crackpot. That means, in other words, someone I avoid wisely.

I've actually run into a few random people like that, only to find out later I was totally right. Call that a generalization, but in reality, it's terribly true.

Mental illness is a terrible thing.

Apart from Steve Irwin and kangaroos.
I was just wondering because everyone always says how ignorant Americans are; I would like to test if this is true.

Americans, what do you know (or think you know) about Australia?

Recently the question was posed "Are most people idiots?" The answer was a resounding "yes!"

Next the question was asked "Do idiots know that they are idiots?"
The answer was "no."

So the next logical progression is "Are you an idiot?"

Since most people do not know that they are an idiot, the answer will surely be "no". But we have to test to find out.

The last time this question was posed, it was removed. Aparently some idiot was offended. Don't be offended. Just give your best answer.

I have always worn pantyhose with my skirt suits for work each day at the office. Needless to say, with me dressing that way, my hubby developed a pretty intense curiousity about it. As I was getting ready for work one day, I asked him what the fascination was and he told me that he found it alluring and sensual when I wear pantyhose and that he was curious to experience that feeling. So I hiked up my skirt, eased out of my sheers, handed them to him, and told him to slip them on. I let him keep them on for a few minutes and he went absolutely crazy over the way they felt, which I thought was kind of neat.

Now hes asked a few more times recently for me to let him wear them again. I don't want to deny it to him because of how fascinated he is and how much he liked it that one time. I'm thinking if I can limit it to a few minutes around the time we go to bed, we could have fun with it. Was I wrong to do this? How should I handle this?

I'm in traffic a lot and tend to see those circular or oval shaped bumper stickers that are white with black letters in them. They all have different letters. They never spell anything. Does any one know what i'm talking about, and know what the heck they mean... it drives me CRAZY!
