    why it's hard to meet a decent guy online

    I think that there are more male perverts than women. And I'd rather be asked how much money I have than asked if I like having my private parts licked.

    Let's tax caffeine, legislator argues

    I'm waiting for them to dream up a tax on anything that studies show is "bad for you"-even though such studies are done on mice. If they start taxing food items-which are currently not taxed-I will join in a revolution. What's next-a tax on the air we breathe? It's gotta stop somewhere. I...

    De-romanticizing vampires

    This article helps explain how the legend of vampires started. I doubt all those teenage girls who are swooning over "Twilight" will be interested, though. Italy dig unearths female 'vampire' in Venice

    Modernization of Interstate

    Many, many times I've looked at the potholed, buckled roads here and thought to myself that we're supposed to be the greatest country in the world, but some third-world countries have better roads than what I'm seeing here. And then I think about all the money that's been spent on Iraq. And...

    Will Obama Stand Up for These Kids?

    I never did see the point of having a neighborhood school that few of the kids who actually live IN the neighborhood go to--most of the students are bussed in from other areas. And this has nothing to do with racial balancing. If I had kids, I'd of course want them to go to the best schools...

    the only surprise here is it took so long for them to be charged.

    10 kids drink windshield-wiper fluid at day care

    Why would she put windshield fluid in a Kool-Aid container?? and who is so scatterbrained or overworked that they don't double check the labels on stuff, especially when it's going to be given to kids?

    Will Obama Stand Up for These Kids?

    One wonders if the scholarship kids would get the same media attention if they went to a school other than Sidwell. I don't know if I would want my children's names in the news as poster kids for this. What really needs to be focused on is fixing public schools so everyone has the same...

    10 kids drink windshield-wiper fluid at day care

    how in the heck can someone mistake windshield washer fluid for kool-aid?? I've never seen a gallon of pre-mixed Kool-Aid in a plastic jug that looks the same as windshield washer fluid. And how can you work in a day-care center and be so distracted that you both put the jug of fluid in the...

    Need online news video captioned!

    It irritates me that when I look at news sites, like CNN, they have video of news stories that are not captioned, so I don't know what's being said. This is SO irritating! I know that it would cost the news sites money to subtitle all the videos they put up on their sites, especially when they...

    Photo emerges that might be last taken of Lincoln

    I don't see how they can say it definitely is Lincoln. The head and face are blurry. It would be nice to see an enlarged image-when I zoom in, it gets more blurry.

    Senators vote to preserve back-home pet projects

    I wonder how many people who thought Obama was the Second Coming are cursing him now? I knew all along that he'd have to do some unpopular things in order to start fixing what's wrong with this country. People tend to forget that the President does not have absolute power-he has to compromise...

    Man survives unprotected tumble over Niagara Falls

    if you're going to commit suicide, it might be best to do it someplace where people aren't going to stop you. But, attempting it in a public place is a cry for help. I wonder how this story will turn out-if he gets help and becomes a happier person. They rarely let us know how these things...

    dvd not showing captions

    Thanks Naisho! I'll try that next. I like performing surgery on my electronics! :naughty: Catty, I tried doing what another poster suggested-I put the offending disc in my DVD drive and the captions didn't show up. I stopped it, chose subtitles and that worked fine. Then I put the disc in the...
