My friend and I have a disagreement about how they get those street views...you know the feature where you can zoom down, turn back and forth and it looks like you're standing right in front of your house (or whatever place you choose to fly to)?

My friend foolishly thinks that Google actually had people go around every location in the world with a 360 degree camera and take videos. I maintain that that is impossible or, if remotely possible would take YEARS to complete and that it is all done by satellite. Please settle our dispute as a lobster and prime rib dinner is riding on this!

Who should be in charge of Ireland?

suppress the names of additional companies that still have potentially melamine-tainted pet food on the store shelves. This is unacceptable!!! Pets have died and if the FDA has ANY pertinent information it should be released to protect our animals. How do YOU feel about this??!!

Mine are Black Labrador Retrievers. They're soft and soulful, goofy and gregarious and loving and loyal to the core. I have 3. Lila, Georgia and Oliver.

Mine include jackasses who sway to the right before turning left (practically hitting me as I go straight); idiots who stop at the intersection where there's NO stop sign; morons who pull right out (going 15) in front of me when I'm going 45; and my all-time worst pet peeve---TAILGAITERS!!!!! What drivers drive you crazy???

About a year ago I began to smell smoke like smoke from a campfire. After many trips out of bed to find the "fire" and finding none I realized this must be a hallucination and set out to find the cause of this smoke smell that is threatening to drive me insane.

I had an MRI and an EEG ruling out epilepsy. I do not have allergies and I cannot pinpoint any specific triggers for these events. I smell the smoke intermittently for the most part and constantly at times, sometimes strongly for days in a row. I smell it in my home, car, at work, while shopping,...etc so it is not situational. I have also twice experienced the taste and feel of ashes in the back of my throat and on my tongue. PLEASE help before I go crazy.

Yes, folks it's true. An elementary school in Boston has banned children from playing tag, touch football and other chasing games at recess. This comes on the heels of the Dallas, TX 5th grade teacher who was fired for taking her students on a field trip to an ART MUSEUM because there were nude statues/paintings there.

I am appauld. I think this is insanity. What are your views on this subject?

We say "Bless You" when someone sneezes.

Where did this saying originate?

Here it is..........

If you say my name I will cease to exist.

What am I?

If I sit outdoors and read a book (which I like to do a lot--except for this problem) my vision gradually become "starry". I can describe it as being like having Vaseline rubbed over my eyeballs and trying to look through it. It takes quite a while for my eyesight to return to normal. Does anyone know the physical reason this happens? Does it happen to anyone else out there?

I missed seeing, way back in the beginning of CSI, how Willows went from being a stripper to being a forensics expert. Will someone please fill me in?

If you had your own piece of land would you grow and raise your own food ? Would you find relief in throwing on your overalls every morning instead of high heels, makeup, etc.? (or suits and ties for you guys) Could you be happy with less money and a lot more fresh air? Would watching the sunset become more appealing than watching TV?

Why do you think people so readily accept accounts of history wriiten about Washington or Lincoln, the pioneers, The Civil War, etc., but refute the history wriiten in the greatest history book of all--The Bible--about Jesus?

Who do you hope wins American Idol....Elliot, Taylor or Catherine?

Are you shocked that Chris got voted off?
