A question about moving and utilities?
Will Mass Electric allow you to switch on electricity in your new apartment while still keeping it on in the old one for a couple of days? Or do they expect you to shut it off in one and turn it on in the other?
2 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoShould men have the right to terminate a pregnancy?
I stole this kinda from the Spirtual section and was wondering what people thought over here? If the father is expected to care for the baby shoudln't he have a say in whether or not the baby lives? I am kinda inclined to think that if the father wants the child he should be able to force the woman NOT to have an abortion. Forcing a woman to have an abortion is a bit much and I feel the father should have to care for his child if the mother decides to have the baby. But perhaps the mother should be forced to have the baby if the father wants it born.
26 AnswersGender & Women's Studies1 decade agoI know that considering a woman who is drunk a rape victim?
is a bit much but really, why do you think it is ok to have sex with a girl whose judgment is impaired and might regret doing it? Are you that desperate for a lay?
16 AnswersGender Studies1 decade agoThe difference between men and women?
I heard this in a movie once but feel it has some truth to it....The Difference between men and women is men learned to fall in love with what they find attractive while women learn to be attracted to that which they fall in love with. Your thoughts?
7 AnswersGender Studies1 decade agoLet me try again....?
and I mean this without any offense to anyone. I am just interested to hear your thoughts.
If evidence that God exists was given to man kind, would that not destroy religion. For if you had evidence than you no longer have faith and isn't faith what religion is based on?
25 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoTo know God is to not know God.... your thoughts on that statement?
It was a huge topic in my Philosophy class for a while. All are welcome to answer. Thanks for your thoughts.
14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoMaybe you should try antibuse?
you're faceless
offering not a hand nor finger
outside
we sit together
inside
starring at nothing in particular
how do i explain your
control
over me, in case anyone asks?
like a judge, policeman, mortician,
in case they ask
why i sat there
you're faceless
and thus I have no identity too.
1 AnswerPoetry1 decade agoSome day I will find someone who knows this song?
A long time ago I heard over the radio a song that was sung in this deep voice that described the adventures of these farmers who were a small as mice. The chorus was sung by a choir of children and went like this
"In a car
in a car
in a small car
in a car
in a small car
in a small car driving"
I have googled that little bit and still can't locate the song. Does anyone know?
4 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoWould you like to read MY poem?
If no meant YES
just for today
would I experience the new things that I never
thought would come my way?
Would I find thrill
with the new things I see
or a disdain and discomfort towards
all that was new to me?
If no meant YES
even just once
would I get what I asked for
even a close resemblance?
Suppose I say
I have to confess
no, I really didn't want to
if I meant it then I would have said
YES
2 AnswersPoetry1 decade agoThis election has shown me how truly racism is a problem in this country?
And I expect a bunch of half baked responses about Obama and his minister friend. But give the man props. He told you the truth instead of placating to your ignorance. Minorities are angry at white society and whether you think they should be or not, they are. Maybe instead of yelling how things "aren't your fault" you could listen.
But my REAL question.... I feel like there is two or three not McCaine supporters, but anti Obama contenders who have hooked themselves up with 5-10 screen names and have been flooding this section with racist and offensive comments and questions. What A waste of time. Anyone agree?
14 AnswersElections1 decade agoThe man is a senator, don't you get it?
He wouldn't be the democratic nomination if he has terrorist ties of any kind. The democrats want to win people, and oh yeah the democrats don't like terrorists either. How can you honestly believe that Obama has anything to do with terrorism? DOn't you think the democratic party has access to google to? I am fairly certain there was a thorough background check done on the man before he wa even allowed to run for senator, the primaries, let alone the presidency. GROW UP. Why are you so gullible?
31 AnswersElections1 decade agoIt's a horrid though but is anyone else concerned?
That Obama will be assassinated? Aside from the tragic loss of a great man's life, it will rip this country's morale apart!! There are many crazies out there who think he is a terrorist or "anti-white".
4 AnswersElections1 decade agoDon't you find it a bit sickening that McCain....?
has not come out and point blank said to all those ignorant fools "Look, I want to be president and all but let's set the record straight. I know Obama and his family and he isn't a terrorist" After seeing that AlJazeera clip on YouTube where people state they think Obama "walks like a duck so must be a terrorist" I would think McCain would be "hold your horses buddy. He is A US senator and he is not a terrorist." Does McCain and Palin really want to bost their polls by catering to the fears and predjudice of simpletons?
11 AnswersElections1 decade agoHow much would you pay for an 89 crown vic?

3 AnswersBuying & Selling1 decade agoLooking for some tips or people to share about OCD?
So I have OCD and because I am under so much stress and pressure lately it has flared up to an almost unbearable level. I don't have to wash my hands or clean my house a million times a day (I am actually a bit of a slob) but I have rituals that I have to do every morning, afternoon, and night. They are actually a threat to my job as the morning rituals have made me late for work as I refuse to leave the house until they are completed. I have to enter every room or new textured ground on my right foot and I have an irrational fear of the number 6. Yup, I am nuts. I was on a low dose of amintryptiline for a while but it didn't do much. Any advice? Any similar situatios that you have learned to cope with? Any obnoxious comments from d*ck heads about how crazy I am?
3 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoWhy do poor people get stereotyped as lazy?
I work 60 hours a week, never been on any form of government assistance and I am dirt poor. I am trying to continue with my education but my family could not afford to send me to school and assistance is not easy to come by at my age. But you all are condeming me to a life of poverty because you think tax breaks for the lower class is encouraging laziness? We weren't all born with a silver spoon people. Be honest, how many of you have been born into middle -upper class?
22 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy would I listen to a plumber? ?
Seriously, we are not talking socialism here. This country offers much incentive to be successful. There is no Upper class person who is going to want to change places with a middle to lower class person if Obama's tax plan goes through. People who call that tax plan socialist are really just fascist!! Social responsibility is a democratic ideal!!
16 AnswersElections1 decade agoDo you think Yahoo is showing bias in favor of McCain?
