  • Is it normal for Delta Airlines to ask you for your passport information during the phone interview?

    I was just scouted by Delta Airlines on careerbuilder.com to be a bilingual English/Japanese flight attendant. They liked my resume and initial assessment and asked me to call them soon for a telephone interview. The email said to have my passport information ready. Is this normal? I'm just afraid of identity theft.

  • Why do some Black Americans call Tiger Woods a "sell out"?

    To preface this, I am a black man. I also don't condone his extramarital activities.

    I have heard NO ONE confront this point at all when faced with it, and I would like an answer from some of the people who want to pass judgement on him for his taste in partners.

    Tiger likes Golf. Tiger is of mixed heritage. Tiger has what would be defined by many an “atypical” accent.

    Coming up in a black community or around other black peers would be a perfect storm for ridicule and bullying from them. Girls his age would be uninterested and even join in on the bullying because they wouldn’t want to be associated with a “nerdy kid trying to be white”. Chances are that Tiger was sold out by the black people he associated with LONG before black people believe Tiger sold them out.

    As a people, Black Americans have made a prison out of identity. You aren’t allowed to like British Pop, Heavy Metal, Ice Hockey, or anything that doesn’t have a predominantly black presence or you are “trying to be white”. Accents that deviate from the “norm” will be ridiculed.

    Any person, regardless of race, will take a path of least resistance. Only a truly masochistic person would keep trying to find acceptance and happiness amongst a group of people that have made it clear they do NOT want them.

    Tiger is a product of his environment…an environment the black people that attack him for his life choices and preference of company refuse to own up to for their part in the shaping of that environment because they want their cake and to be able to eat it too.

  • Has Kofi Kingston hit the glass ceiling?

    After his feud with Orton and the Elimination Chamber PPV, it seems he is being used less and less on RAW and only as a Jobber to the Stars when he was on the cusp of main event status just a couple of months before.

  • Do you think Christmas is a holiday that only Christians should celebrate?

    I think the holiday has become more a universal (mostly because of corporations) holiday of appreciation for friends, family, and co-workers and has shed its secular roots. That isn't to mean that Christians don't celebrate the season in a more traditional and spiritual way.

  • (PS3) Does the Japanese version on Final Fantasy XIII have either English text or voice options?

    I can speak and read Japanese, but English would make it easier on my brain considering I wouldn't have to play *and* translate at the same time. If it does, I might pick it up. If not, I have a few games to play until March when it comes out in the US.

  • Was Ted Dibiase Jr.'s face turn just wishful thinking by the IWC?

    His movie is out on video and there is a month to the Royal Rumble, but he is still firmly a heel. They teased it a bit in the summer, but as of right now there is no indication that he'll turn face. Was all this talk just dirtsheet and IWC banter?
