But, if the police really suspect them, then why not subject them to a lie detector test?

Do you think it is mostly to do with population? People always say there is more murder and crime, but back in the old days there was still a lot of murder, lots of poisonings, assasinations, wives boiling and eating their husbands (thats what happens when we are opressed fellas!) and so on. I think that lack of punishment (i.e spanking) for children also contributes and that most places no longer have the death penalty. Why do you think the world is going downhill? And is it really or are there just more bad people simply because there are more people in general?

Hi, I come from a country where we have a good mix of the Eastern and the Western influences.

We're educated based on the British educational system but everything else seemed more american-based in terms of media exposure, culture, music, movies etc.

Anyways, I have worked for american, australian MNCS and I may be an asian but I'm not new to the common greeting of "hugs".

Just joined a UK firm not too long ago and I'm still not quite accustomed to the 'cheek kissing' culture though.

I still have the tendency to stretch out my arms and give a hug of sorts but understand that the european greetings is more kisses on the cheeks.

I know this sounds like a silly question... but where exactly does your hand go/do if when you do the cheek-kiss thingy?

Please enlighten me!


XOXOX!

this morning ,out of the blue, a guy showed up at my door step, turned out he's the jerk broke up with me 4 months ago, he dumped me, n he didn't pay his half rent, a total cheap bastard.
he said after 4 months apart, he realised that he loves me, he came back to make up with me, i was so emotional that i couldn't say a word, i grab my mop n swept him out, i couldn't decide whether to laugh or slap him on the face, is he nuts? he dumped me, n now he just show up ,expecting me to embrace him with open arms? what makes him think he can do that to a girl? damn! i was so angry that i forgot to slap him, does any girl came across the similiar thing as me?

I grew up near there and used to call it "tal-ah-DEE-gah" I've heard residents call it "tal-ah-DIG-ah" but I've never heard natives call it by the name people everywhere else call it, "tal-ah-DAY-gah." Can someone who is a native of the town of Talladega and who actually lives in town of Talladega answer this?

Would you say that America is crumbling rapidly because of its lack of a moral backbone?

I think the belief that morality as a "true for me, true for you" concept really isn't working, ja?

This way of thinking exists here all because of people who know the universal truth of morality, but refuse to accept it (or ignore it) due to their own selfish immoral ambitions. Those who wish to change can and will change. Some DISEASES exist just because of centuries of SEXUAL immorality.

(To you radical Atheists, no I am not saying "God" is the universal truth, or I would have made a direct reference rather than beating around the bush. Just a future FYI to prevent some fluff on this Q. I have no religion and draw my conclusions from logic and nature itself.)

What say you?

Are the networks deliberately misrepresenting blacks? Because 99.9% of the blacks in this country do not speak even remotely the way they do on shows like CSI. Why wouldn't the networks want to show blacks speaking as they really do?

The whole "which came first, the chicken or the egg" ... I understand everyone has different views about it, such as:

Evolution, and God.

So, would your answer be the same for every animal that lays eggs? Say.. different kinds of birds. Or turtles. Or spiders. What about the only egg-laying mammal, the platypus? Would all of your answers be the same? Either evolution and/or God?

If a stranger came up to you and begged you to help them, to get them some food, perhaps a place to stay, a job would you help them, even though you could tell that they were really suffering and really just in some terrible rut, would you help them to get them back on their feet?
