The seller has came back after his real asking price of $49,000. Says yes he will pay the closing cost if I will pay 53,000 for the house. He says the house should appraise for the 53 amount. Do I go to the bank and tell this and see if they will up my loan or do I shop eles where for a house. My agent said go ahead with offer. It would only change my payment $6 a month. I'm thinking of the 30 years here.

After all the news events going on in the world in regards to islam - i thought id take a look into the religion as i have always been told by my late-parents and teachers - never judge a book by its cover. I have felt that the media has created a cover for Islam - a very negative stereotype which gets into our minds.
I am a not a muslim neither am i a christian. Therefore i have looked into Islam and its teaching and looking in context of when each bit of the Koran was revealed, and it makes sense.
Do you know the context of 'find the unbelievers and slay them, let no rock be unturned'? This is a classic example of people saying it is proof that it is a violent religion.
The teachings of Islam are delightful to read especially since it was revealed about 1500 years (i think) when there were no rights. It is important to remember that culture is different to religion as people have ulterior motives such as riches.
How many of you have looked into it with an open mind?

A guy dials his home and a strange woman answers.

The guy says, "Who is this?"

"This is the maid," answers the woman.

"We don't have a maid," says the man.

The woman says, "I was hired this morning by the lady of the house."

The man says, "Well, this is her husband. Is she there?"

The woman replies, "She is upstairs in the bed room with someone who I figured was her husband."

The guy is fuming and says to the maid, "Listen, would you like to make $50,000?"

The maid says, "What will I have to do?"

The man tells her, "I want you to get my gun from the desk, and shoot thewitch and the jerk she's with."

The maid puts the phone down; the man hears footsteps and then two gun shots.

The maid comes back to the phone, "What do I do with the bodies?"

The man says, "Throw them in the swimming pool."

Puzzled, the maid answers, "But you don't have a pool."

A long pause and the man says, "Is this 567-5309?"

I was suppost to babysit, but the people cancelled, and now were like in the middle of a blizzard, so we can't even go to the fireworks.

My roomate can no longer get a hotspot in our apartment, but I'm naive to wireless routers. I have a desktop PC, with Roadrunner wired cable, she has an Imac- what should I get? (would the airport allow both she and me to connect?)

Thanks in advance, happy New Year.

Christmas Will Always Be On December 25. The supposed day that Jesus was born. And now we invented Santa that brings children presents on Christmas. And by the way, Santa is a mixed up word of Satan, the devil. How wrong is it to recieve presents on a day that we should be honoring the day Jesus was born. He died on a cross and here we are spending the day playing with our new remote controled airplane or new bike. And no we are not honoring Jesus with presents we are honoring nothing. And people then say that "The true meaning of Christmas is Jesus"-well aparently our world doesn't seem to think so even if they say that phrase. Here's my plan-instead of recieving presents on Christmas day, we should move "Present Day" to either December 1 or New Years Day (Jan 1). It seems alot more appropriate. On the 25 of December children can still have the same amount of time off from school. What is your opionion on that? Kids would still be recieving their presents, just not on Christmas.

If Adam and Eve were told not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil how would they know it was WRONG to eat the fruit. That seems quite unfair to punish them when implicitly they did not even know the difference between good and evil...???

I wear a suit to work every day. As well as being bought the obvious ties, cufflinks etc for Christmas, someone got me a set of black braces (which I think Americans call suspenders).

This was intended as a joke present, but I was wondering, do men still wear them, and would people think I'm odd for wearing them? They're surprisingly comfortable!

A few months ago, there was an opening with the CIA for an assassin. These highly classified positions are hard to fill, and there's a lot of testing and background checks involved before you can even be considered for the position.
After sending some applicants through the background checks, training and testing, they narrowed the possible choices down to two men and a woman, but only one position was available.
The day came for the final test to see which person would get the extremely secretive job. The CIA men administering the test took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun. "We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter what the circumstances," they explained. "Inside this room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill her."
The man got a shocked look on his face and said, "You can't be serious! I could never shoot my own wife!" Well," said the CIA man, "you're definitely not the right man for this job then."
So they bring the second man to the same door and hand him a gun. "We must know that you will follow instructions no matter what the circumstances," they explained to the second man. "Inside you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill her."
The second man looked a bit shocked, but nevertheless took the gun and went in the room. All was quiet for about five minutes, then the door opened. The man came out of the room with tears in his eyes. "I tried to shoot her. I just couldn't pull the trigger and shoot my wife. I guess I'm not the right man for the job."
"No," the CIA man replied. "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go the hell home."
Now they're down to the woman left to test. Again they lead her to the same door and hand her the same gun. "We must be sure that you will follow instructions no matter what the circumstances. This is your final test. Inside you will find your husband sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill him."
The woman took the gun and opened the door. Before the door even closed all the way, the CIA heard the gun start firing, one shot after another, for 13 shots. Then they heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. This went on for several minutes, then all went quiet. The door opened slowly, and there stood the woman....... She wiped the sweat from her brow and said, "You guys didn't tell me the gun was loaded with blanks! I had to beat the son of a b*tch to death with the chair!"
