we just got back from texas'.
they had their annual tax free weekend.
with hotel, gas, food, and shopping, we spent $1000.00 easy.
Were thses kids witnesses? That effects a lot.
No, they were hellians! I know there's not much difference.
I found them out in my father's workshop passing around a joint and drinking his beer. They had no concern that he could walk in at any minute and bust 'em. One kid was feeling up his girlfriend right in front of everyone, and they just sat there like it was normal.
When I was that age we at least took our girlfriends around the back of the workshop for some privacy.

I don't think it's good for people to have sex before they're mature enough to handle the responsibility.
My parents had a group of 15-17 year olds come to a pool party last year, and...no...they shouldn't be having any form of sex outside of masturbation. Maybe two kids out of the group of 12 acted like they had their heads screwed on straight.

I think uniforms should be manditory. Kids don't go to school to learn, but to put on a fashion show.
When I graduated girls couldn't wear short skirts or half-shirts, and guys couldn't wear tank tops or hats. This was close to 10 years ago. I ride by schools now and see the girls half naked and the guys sporting every type of hat you can imagine. No wonder kids are having sex at a younger and younger age.
this thread isn't about spitting on the sidewalk or picking your nose in public.
i am talking about bad thinking habits.
ways of thinking that we learned in order to survive, bad ways of thinking that we learned because of wrong information/wrong beliefs that we had.
Procrastination is my worst habit. I put absolutely EVERYTHING off until the last minute, and it's almost as if I have no choice. I simply cannot force myself to do anything until it's almost due, such as term papers, paying bills, job hunting, etc. My last three term papers were started 6-9 hours before the classes began, and I somehow aced all of them.
For me, procrastination is good and bad. It's good in that I'm much better under pressure...I can think more clearly. It's bad in that it puts TONS of stress on the body...rushing and sweating to get something done in time.
my two son's are body builders and i am wonering if they think they can take on the world .
last year my son was in a bar fight and got sucker punched in the eye which required 5 stiches ,now my 21 year old comes home with a huge black eye, the biggest i have ever seen trying to break up a fight.. .
now both these people that got a good shot at my kids where men much smaller in stature and size and seemed to land good punches.
Many body builders have a body fat deficiency, which is not healthy. Our organs are protected by a layer of "good fat", and if we burn that off we're in trouble.
because you all inform with logic.
i have been reading for several months now.
not even sure how i found this site.
The dangerous thing would be NOT discussing things in a rational manner.
i see the pictures of this starving country and it's a appalling and saddening to see the sea of children in this tragedy.. having said that, what the heck are these people thinking bringing into the world all these children to starve to death???!!!.
along with food, why not also send enough health professionals to educate them about reproduction and its consequences in the midst of their horrible situation???!!!

So religion is the sole problem that prevents Africans from using birth control? Money or lack of availability is not an issue?
I'd like to see more info on this. Before I'd send food I'd send a crate of condoms with explicit instructions on how to use them. This may sound harsh, but sending food while looking away from the cause is not helping the problem...it's perpetuating it. They need to be properly educated. They need to realize that if they CHOOSE not to use birth control, and they CHOOSE to have sex, they're going to spread aids and bring starving children into the world. No one other than the severely mentally challenged is beyond being taught.
We all have free will. If their religion is causing them to KILL THEMSELVES, someone needs to slap them upside the head and let them know. Religion is supposed to enrich our lives, not destroy them.
how do so many people have similar experiences in "haunted" places if spirits didn't exist?
how do ouija boards work?
i recently purchased one and...i now know why so many people fear them.
I'll post the results in this thread. I probably won't have three people in the house until this weekend.
I found a funny thread on another board while searching for more info:

Quite unconsciously, the participant is moving the hand enough to make the movement of the involved device occur
Some may say that this is the whole point of putting your hands on the planchette. The spirits work through you, causing you to make these subtle movements.
See, I have an answer for everything!
I also hear that they can help you lose weight. http://www.spiritualcuriosity.com/curiosity/ouijafaq.htm

Check out the James Randi One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge:
Playing the devil's advocate here, maybe spirits don't want to show the world proof or aren't allowed to provide proof of their existence? Maybe it's left up to the targeted individual to decide?
I don't know. I'm always open to possibilities.
