Other - Society & Culture - 9 November 2007

A new upscale beverage popping up in the hands of executives and movie stars all over the country. It's not surprising that it can be found in swag baskets at the MTV Video Music Awards. The bottle is adorned with Swarovski crystals (or frost/ice?)
Paris Hilton's dog drinks it.
It's called (the ever so tasteful) Bling H2O and it's billed as the "Cristal of Waters."
Can you believe you can taste it at a "water bar.", such as located in Westchester NY?

And these popinjay buffoons are made about to be the role models for todays' youth?

Well, fools and their money are easily parted.

No chance they could spare that same money to help provide safe drinking water to the world's poor is there?

Obviously they're too important, rich and pretentious to be effected by the 3.9 million children dying annually of water-borne disease, such as diarrhea, cholera, diphtheria and typhus.

See now where the seeds of communist sympathy ferments Americans?

People often complain about how society has become too permissable in that there seems to be an "anything goes" type attitude.

However, do you believe that certain sexual taboos will never be considered permissable under any conditions, such as incest, bestiality, necrophilia, and pedophilia? In the last case, there are actually a few groups in existence that try to promote what they call "inter-generational sex".

A few years ago while taking a university summer course, I had a professor who condoned incestuous relationships, as long as they were "consensual". At first I thought he was just joking or playing devil's advocate. However, in one of the his articles which the class had to read for homework, he mentioned that as a teen, he actually lusted after his older brother.

While I consider myself to be an open-minded person, I found that to be extremely disturbing. Even gay friends of mine found that to be quite gross.

I am 55. When I was a child, we had milk delivered to our house every morning, women could not get credit in the name only; had to be co-signed by their husbands (what did single women do?), diapers were not throw-away, and the grocery stores were real small (the buildings still stand; but no longer grocery stores; usually auto part stores inside now). Except for computers, color tv, and fm radio, not much else changed over the years. What is different now for you, vs back then?

Please don't say cell phone. That is still a phone. They were on walls back then.

What are some uniquely American contributions to humankind? The lightbulb, basketball, muscle cars? The serial killer and the Saturday Night Special? Any and all answers are welcome.

Mine:
My husband and I were eating hot wings while watching a movie........We got in the mood later on and my husband obviously still had hot sauce on his hands, well when he touched a certain sensitive place, I thought it was gonna catch on fire. He had to pour cold water on it, adn it was pretty numb for the next few hours....Don't have sex after eating hot wings guys.

What is it about you that makes you different from the person next to you? Just a fun question to make you think on a Friday!
