  OK, let me hit these one by one ---

  • The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112

  First of all, this number is part of the GSM standard. It will only work on phones that operate on GSM networks. In the USA, this only includes Cingular(now AT&T again) and T-Mobile. It won't work if you have Verizon or Sprint/Nextel.

  • Have you locked your keys in the car....

  This is a crack up! THIS WILL NOT WORK. The only way it would work is if your car was in the driveway and the person you call is in the house. You can figure it out from there...

  • Hidden Battery Power

  Another joke. Let's face it folks. There are people out there in the world who send these emails out just to see how viral they can get.

  • How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?

  Simple. Forget writing down your ESN(electronic serial number). Just call your provider and tell them your phone was stolen/misplaced. They will flag the ESN as stolen and the phone will not be able to be registered on a new account. Of course, this whole idea is null and void if the thief knows how to crack the security code and brings the phone to another provider which has no record of your previous esn.

  • Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls

  Try calling it and see how it works. They get their money by selling timeshares, etc. The reliability isn't that good either. But hey, its free.

  My wife sent me this same email asking me if they were true. This is what I replied to her:

  LMAO! esp the one when calling someone on their cell to have them unlock your doors! LOL
  
  The only one that *might* be plausible is the 411. You would have to call it first to find out. It's probably a porn line.

  Justice said something about ---

  and cutting peoples heads off on TV.

  Why is this so wrong? If you steal, rape, murder, etc., you know what the punishment will be. One of the greatest allies to the USA practices this form of punishment. Why doesn't the USA reprimand Saudi Arabia for this act? We have the death penalty here in the USA as well. Does it matter how the form of punishment is carried out? Personally, I would much rather have my head lopped off over getting fried in the electric chair. Does it matter if it is aired on tv? SA does it out in public after prayers. Again, the USA just looks the other way -- and maybe you should too if you don't agree with your government's policies.

  Do you Sudoku?

  i tried the one in the newspaper the other day and just about solved it.

  but thought i should start small and work my way up to get a better understanding of how it's played.. so i picked up a sudoku mag at target the other day.

  it's an easy one and i'm really getting the hang of it and enjoying it.

  They must have powdered cocaine in those sudoku books cuz I can't stop doing them. If you have Verizon Wireless, you can download VZW's Sudoku for your phone(GetItNow). I only play the "master" ones and my best time is 9:48. My next best two times are in the 10's. It almost seems impossible to break that 10 mark. I think the game gave me a fluke "sensei" puzzle and that's why I got under 10 minutes.

  So yes, Sudoku phreak here as well.

  Yep, those bodies are for real. I saw a making of special on it and those guys had to work out extremely hard for a few months to get like that. RIPPED!

  I want to see it for the cinematography aspect. The storyboarding and direction just looks awesome. Just a couple more weeks!

  This is easy - no hesitation here...

  Mixed drink --- Mojito. I prefer to make my own from scratch rather than have one served to me.(I typically use organic ingredients whenever possible)

  Wine --- Hmmm. Depends on the mood and situation. If I'm drinking one on its own, a pinot noir or a late harvest riesling. Michigan is primarily a riesling hotbed due to the temps and location. Anything else grown here just doesn't quite have the potential to match up with other states/countries. The reds here suck. No long periods of warmth.

  Beer --- When I've got a little extra change in my pocket, I splurge on a Chimay Grande Reserve(Blue). Otherwise, if I travel to a state which sells New Belgium Brewery's beers, I will try to load up on a case or two of 1554, Fat Tire, Trippel, and Abbey.

  Hard Liquor --- I just love Bushmill's 10. It has a sort of almond and toffee flavor combo that I get semi-orgasmic over.

  i got a call tuesday afternoon that my gran (in the us) had a massive stroke and was in a coma.

  they already knew that they were going to have to transfer to hospice.. i flew out wednesday, and the horrendous trip began.

  we were a bit delayed coming in to washington because there was a plane sitting on the runway.

  (((wolfgirl))) I know exactly how you felt. I just went through a very similar situation last month with my grandpa dying. Luckily, I only had my dad and an elder to confront. The rest of my family in IA are not jw's.

  After reading what you wrote, I couldn't believe how close to home it hit.

  The Iranians claim that they are just seeking to produce much needed nuclear energy and not nuclear weapons but who can trust them?

  Just one question....Is it about "trusting" them or abiding by a treaty which was signed by both the USA and Iran? Personally, trust has nothing to do with it. If the US doesn't want Iran getting nuclear technology, then they should back out of the treaty and stop hassling Iran with rhetoric and invade. Iran should just withdraw from the treaty anyways with all the $hit they have to deal with coming from the US. But if they do, then Bush will use that as a way to say, "LOOK! They want to avoid having the IAEA inspect their facilities for nuke weapon capability! We must invade!" It's a catch-22 for Iran.
