    I you could make a law for hearies to learn 10 signs, what would be most important?

    Hmm. This is a tough one. Call ambulance, police, fire dept. should definitely be top priority, though.

    Myths of the Vietnam War exposed

    I'm sorry, and mean no disrespect to anyone in any way (especially to people who have fought in battles) But, being there is not enough. Even that person knowing is not enough, because YOU have no way to tell what is what (unless you are psychic) There can be agendas, 'rose tinted glasses'...

    Come On!

    The world is going to shit. You know why? Because hardly anyone does anything about it. People just 'go with the flow'. People expect EVERYONE ELSE TO HANDLE EVERYTHING. Kid messing up in school? Behaving badly? Maybe they shot someone, like in Columbine? OH! It's the schools fault. No...

    Super Earths, eh?

    Yeah. Life not from Earth is definitely possible. That doesn't mean it does exist, (which in turn doesn't say that it does not exist) we haven't seen it yet, so we tend to say it does not. People tend to go by the properties of Earth itself, and yes, a lot of things on Earth require a very...

    Gun Unsafety Video Shows Exactly How Not to Fire a Gun

    Yeah. You definitely want a good stance and grip... you don't necessarily want to be stiff as a board either, you can get hurt both ways. (not to mention being too tense will mess with your shots) And yeah, I have done a little guided shooting... benched, but still, was told all about it...

    Myths of the Vietnam War exposed

    These reports seem likely. However... and I'm not pointing fingers at anyone here, but it is still true. People need to 'get off their butts' and do their own research. Don't trust only your buddy that 'was there' Don't trust the news media alone. Don't trust any single report. DO...

    Surgeon uses claw hammer to remove nail from man's head

    Silly news people, using the claw hammer to make it sound more awful and 'exciting'... I'm sure the doctor didn't just go to the closet and grab a hammer to unceremoniously rip the nail out. There had to be x-rays or CT scan, because it talks about how the nail luckily avoided important parts...

    Iraq: Stay or Leave?

    Waiting for someone to attack is not the best option. "Boots on the ground" are very valuable, yes, but you don't need them to attack anyone directly... therefore others don't need theirs to attack directly either. There is such a thing as interdiction. Like in the WMD example (the fact it...

    would you be patient or impatient?

    I usually only get impatient when I have something else I -really- need/want to do right away, or am just too unwell to put up with extra stress.

    Is it allright to Date Deaf or Hard of Hearing if I am deaf but what about Hearing?

    Untrue. Problems like that are created by PEOPLE, not whether you are deaf or HoH. Some people like to blame everything else but themselves when something goes wrong.

    Soldiers banned from battle by hearing problems 'heighten Army manning crisis'

    Yeah... unfortunately, they can't protect their ears well -AND- fight together as a cohesive team, without hearing well... This has been a pretty common problem in combat, I think. A combat soldier who can't hear well is facing more risk. While one could manage to fight without hearing well, it...

    HELP! help! help! I don´t want to lose

    I'm glad things worked out, and when I saw the thread, I was going to suggest similar to what you did as an option... I had a similar plant with a similar problem and ended up doing the same thing. I can relate to caring a lot about your plants, too. I used to have a big Hibiscus that I loved...

    No War exist

    No war would mean that humans are extinct, therefore it won't matter because we wouldn't be here to care anyway. (cynical)

    Confederate Flag

    I understand this. And don't get me wrong, I'm not fighting to say any particular view. For me it doesn't have so much to do with flags, but social constructs and finger pointing. Are we really so hopeless that we can't even control ourselves? I wonder this some times, some times even...

    Warning - Sickening News

    I think that might even be possible, I haven't been that 'up' on laws but I think there is precedent there. This is not a sign of my approval (or disapproval), just mentioning it...

    Confederate Flag

    I guess I'm not that hardcore into symbolism... It's a flag. An object. A thing. Flags don't jump off of poles and enslave people, or put a gun to your head if you have a different opinion. So therefore it is how one views it that makes it bad. Maybe it's a problem with PEOPLE. A flag is...

    Europe Calls on World to Abolish Death Penalty

    Yes, and some people commit crimes again so they can go back to prison, because after that, life on the outside is too hard for them.
