Was 911 a Saudi operation?

Winterishere @thedevilinme (4152) • Northampton, England 11 Feb 18

So was 911 a state funded attack by Saudi Arabia on the United States? The evidence is stacking up. I have never been convinced it was Al Qaeda and Bin Laden. I certainly don’t think the USA had much to do with it either, other...

I don't know how many of you remember the 1985 movie "Back to the Future" and its sequels -- with stars , Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. In the movie Michael's character, Marty McFly travels back in time using a time...

Jim Might Not Make It

popciclecold @popciclecold (39460) • United States 6 Jun 22

Just to let you all know, Jim is not doing good at all. He has been back and forth to the hospital, spent 3 weeks in one. They talked to me about putting him in hospice. He has been so weak, he had not been able to go dialysis. So...

George B Vieto @Deepizzaguy (103969) • Lake Charles, Louisiana 1 Jun 22

A female who lives in Springfield Missouri is giving credits for instincts as she was inside a Casey's General Store on May 16 when she saw a chance to pay $3 dollars to buy a Bingo Twist Scratchers game. When she scratched off...

Artemeis I don't know if this is purely instinct but I firmly believe she had a stroke of Lady Luck smiling at her there and then. If it is instinct then let her try another time and see.

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (121656) • Gainesville, Florida 30 May 22

Artemeis Yes I can relate to this too. The sights, sounds and surroundings are simply just too overwhelmingly good and everything just happens in a flash. Asking to stop and pose is simply inconvenient and cumbersome. Or asking someone to hold my mobile phone to take...

Question: "Is there a way to wean kids off the Internet?"

Shavkat @Shavkat (140097) • Philippines 30 May 22

Artemeis I believe the adults are equally to be blamed when half of their children's childhood is seeing their parents engaged (glued) to their mobile phones or tablets or iPads. Look around and I am sure you can pick up the habit yourself too. Studies have revealed...

India's legalizing prostitution will prove to be a bane for the country

Anindita Sengupta @aninditasen (16505) • Raurkela, India 27 May 22

The highest court of our country has legalized prostitution. This will prove to be catastrophic for the country. Promiscuity will flourish. Homes and loving relationships will get shattered. Children of prostitute will face social...

The World Upside Down

DW Davis @DWDavis (25805) • United States 29 Mar 22

The hubbub over the slapping at the Oscars shows us all we need to know about how screwed up the priorities of this country and the western world are in general. More people care about two overpaid, overhyped, middle-aged men...

Hard to believe Bitcoin is so expensive now

youless @youless (112562) • Guangzhou, China 29 Mar 22

I remember in the past when Bitcoin was up to USD10,000, I already found it very crazy. But today its price is already over USD47,600 and this is quite unbelievable. This is still very risk to invest to it in my opinion. I am not...
