How to make any English word look weird
How to make any English word look weird: Explain it to someone learning English via instant messenger. For example, Nasr writes to us from Cairo, Egypt: "what does( both ) mean in English ??" Simply type a few sentences emphasizing and explaining the word "both" (typically around five sentences, although the situation may vary depending on both ( Read more... ) -

Possible logging truck collides with a 65-yrs-old guy's car, sends him into a ditch; guy dies, truck driver drives off. BOY I LOVE CARS. -_-;; -

A Letter to All Christians Who Politically Call Themselves "Pro-Choice"
I wrote this letter in response to a friend who stated that being pro-choice was a Christian position, and that the Democratic Party is the Christian Party. I felt I might as well post it for the world to see.
I feel compelled and obligated to write you this letter concerning the

thunderstorm in Japan!

Obama and the Food and Drug Administration: No Credibility At All
So, the FDA is against teenagers killing themselves and for teenagers killing others.

It angers me further to note that those being killed have no choice in the matter. (It is clear that all human rights are an illusion when the ( Read more... ) -
reaction to legislation in New Hampshire and certain press coverage
I am deeply disappointed by "Gay marriage bill signed into law in New Hampshire" from the Associated Press. A few notes:
Cheers from the gallery greeted the key vote in the House, which passed it 198-176. Surrounded by gay marriage supporters, Lynch signed the bill about an hour later.
