anakatora Educated by whose standards? Everyone is educated in their own way. And some of the most educated people known in history have usually ended up opposing the laws and politics -- and wanting a revolution.

Liberals Don't Care About Jobs!

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 7 Nov 08

The myth is that liberals care about the working man and work to preserve jobs. That may be the rhetoric and lip service, but it is as far from the reality as it gets. If liberals got their way (and since they now run both the...

anakatora I doubt the economy can get any worse than it already is. Look around -- there aren't many jobs. It doesn't help fishermen when there is mercury in the fish. It doesn't help coal miners when coal companies stop mining and begin hiring a very small handful of...

anakatora I don't rent movies online. However, I'm really into watchmovies.net. It's free though. However, sometimes you have to put up with them not loading quickly and stuff, which is annoying. Maybe I should try netflix.

anakatora Well, my parents do drive me a bit crazy, but I hate the thought of them spending their last days in a nursing home. However, my grandma lived in a retirement community in Florida and that was great for her. She had lots of friends her age to hang out with and...

anakatora Absolutely do not do that! It has been a very common scam. There are a lot of people who get this type of email. They always ask for your bank account because then they can steal from you. It is unusual that you received the letter in the mail. I know it is...

Give me 7000 dollars instead of the banks

Morgan Drake Eckstein @morgandrake (2136) • United States 24 Oct 08

Last night, I heard in passing that the little bailout for the banks is going to cost each one of us seven thousand dollars, and that is provided that we pay for it right now. (So actually because we are not paying off it upfront,...

anakatora The bailout is a joke. I read somewhere that the loss of money was all based on what is projected they would loose. -- I mean after, all -- the worth of stock has to do with what we think essentially. I guess it's like the whole Enron thing. However, I really...

anakatora Romantic movies are sometimes good, but honestly they pretty much follow the same script. Boy meets girl, boy and girl get mad at each other, and then boy and girl can't bear to be without one another. Actually, not that different than soap operas. When I was...

A Healthy Snack Option:

wunovakind2 @wunovakind2 (378) • United States 24 Oct 08

Frozen Grapes are great to snack on because they are very sweet, and because they're frozen, you'll take longer to eat them. They beat chips and other unhealthy choices. Also, they're best for the summer - for kids and...

anakatora Frozen Grapes are wonderful, but why stop their. Frozen strawberries are delicious, too. It's almost like biting into a frozen fruit bar. Raspberries, blueberries, blackberries are all delicious, as well. However, don't bother with gooseberries -- too tart.

anakatora I'm not a big fan of buses either. It's definitely great for the environment, but it does take a long time to get around. Also, bus stops can be frustrating. There have been so many times when I've waited at a bus stop to find out it's a day when the bus stops...

cream97 @cream97 (29086) • United States 19 Oct 08

anakatora I do both. If I'm concerned about how it looks I print. However, when I'm writing and I'm in the flow I definitely wrte in cursive. It's much quicker, and when I'm feeling creative I just don't care.
