I heard that long ago the rich would not eat lobster because they looked like a bug and were considered insects of the sea, so only the peasants would eat the caught lobster.

I have a case manager/social worker because everyone has one who goes to my psychiatry clinic. People automatically assume I'm on probation or got my kids taken away or do drugs. I don 't have kids, I'm not in any trouble with the law, & NEITHER do I do drugs.

Why the heck are there so many people without health insurance? Or people who can't pay for their education? Or people who've lost their home because they couldn't pay their heightened mortgage payments and got no help from a corporatist minded leadership? How can one call a country "free" when these types of things come to pass?

This is regular paper mail I mean, not email.
I give to a few, but every day I get at least three pieces of mail from a wide variety of them. It's clogging up my mailbox. I don't even know how all these companies know who I am but apparently many of them work together. I've tried "return to sender" but the letter just ended up coming back to me. What can I do?

first off, at my job on sundays, i'm the only non-hispanic person, fluent in english, and one of 2 women. our italian manager has sundays off. rudy is "in charge".

so yesterday, rudy answers the phone, the other girl and i are working the counter, and he hands me the phone and tells me to read the dinner specals to the person. ok. i grab my piece of paper and say "hi, you were looking for the dinner specials?" and the guy on the other end just goes OFF on me.
"i have no clue whats going on over there, i'm talking to a guy then i'm talking to you suddenly and he didnt tell me to hold or anything"
"i'm sorry sir, i was just handed the phone, i dont know what the other guy said to you."
and then this guy just goes crazy
"i'm a strong man and you wouldnt treat a strong man like that" and i'm just trying to get thru it all, and i'm like "i'm sorry, but were you looking for the dinner specials or our pizza specials?". you know, just trying to diffuse the situation. [more]

I know that drugs are tolerated in The Netherlands, but i was curious as to whether or not they still have drug awareness programs in schools. Do they still try to teach kids not to do them even though they are readily available?

If we go to other countries and they are due to celebrate some religious ceremony, do they say lets not upset other religions?
Then say to schools no activity plays if they have them for example.

I purchased a television for my brother's dorm room and was asked for my receipt before leaving Wal-mart. Was I offended? No, but I wonder how others feel about this "lack of trust"among retail stores...

Why aren't there any extensive government funded or run searches for cryptids like the loch ness monster and other things? That way there could be a definitive answer and the mystery would be solved?
