Hubby .

Can anyone in the area tell me if the Buford Hwy Twin is still open and if so is it like it was 7 or 8 years ago?

I am not trying to be a smart a.s nor do I have the answer to this question. Just looking to find out what others think.

Let's say life, as we know it, was put together by a creator...we'll call a god. This god would have had to of been very powerful and knowledgeable, at least by human standards, to create such a complex thing as the universe. Right? Right!

So, where did this god come from? What or who created this god?

If your answer is "God always was" or something similar, I do not consider that a valid answer anymore than I would consider "humans always were" a valid answer.

I have an older computer with Windows XP. In the Windows directory on my C drive I have a ton of files with names similar to this:

$NtUninstallQ819696_RTM$

All of them are blue colored when all others are black.

What are these files and is it safe to delete them?

It seems to me there many minority groups that seek understanding and acceptance.

That makes sense to me.

What does not make sense to me is why these same groups are so non accepting of those that disagree with them.

For example, if someone is against homosexuality or same sex marriage, do they not have a right to their beliefs as much as anyone else does?

I guess it just does not make sense to me that the people who ask for understanding of their beliefs, values, or what ever are usually the same groups that have the least tolerance for people with opinions that differ from their own.

Why do so many gay or lesbian people feel they are defined as a person by their sexuality?

Also, I do not understand the concept of gay pride. If a person is born gay, what is there to be proud of? You never hear of right handed pride. Is there a difference? This is not to say it is something to be ashamed of. I just see pride as being connected to an accomplishment, not a birth trait.

I have a son that is just about to turn 5. He has always watched mma with me a loves it. Wandy is his hero - I think because of the wrist wave thing he does before fights. He also thinks Big john from UFC is really cool.

He loves wrestle and fight like most boys and I would like to see if I can lead his enthusiasm into something that will be positive for him in life.

I think 5 is a good age to start him, but not sure?

Also, what discipline do you recommend for youngsters like him?

I started karate very young, but got real board with it because of the repetition. I stopped as soon as my parents would let me. I want something that will keep a young mind interested.
