GYAAAA!! I made a $500 bet that the Rockets would make a top winning streak of 14 games, and they just won their 15th!! Well, that'll teach me to push my luck.

Most likely, unless you have a creative streak, no pun intended, sex can get really dull. It would be better to experiment with your partner than have a threesome. I've been barking up THAT tree for the past 3 years. XD

Yeah right, he knew fine well it was there. Nobody is gonna fork out for cocaine just so that they can plant it. It would be easier to plant a knife or bomb-material.

I bet they'll find some more during a cavity search and he'll say "That's not mine."

Quenlin, are you referring to an inferiority complex? Sometimes it manifests that way, where they think that everyone is mad at them. It can take years, sometimes decades to get over it completely. Complexes are complex by their very name, it's one of the reasons I failed to get anywhere in psychology. XD

RE: Does anyone believe in prophetic dreams?

I do, I'm a fairly superstitious person and I often predict things in dreams. Like when I dream about my hometown of Greenock, something will upset me the very next day. I dreamed of it last night so I'm sitting here listening to music, phone off the hook, logged out of MSN and I have a mastiff chained up outside to prevent anyone from ruining my day. Hahaha, I'm crazy.

Certain allergy tablets will knock some people right out. Run to the store and buy some that don't have non-drowsy written on them. Although, expect to have vivid dreams while you balance between being awake and asleep.

Yes, it needs to be from both of them, and like Quenlin said, no lies and minced words. Now, anyone can have sex, but it takes a real person to know sexual etiquette, which is in the dumps these days.

If you want to get over porn, get married and have a brilliant sex life. Works for just about everyone I know. Like that's gonna happen, I decided to give up porn and I havn't even touched my magazine stash in almost a month now. It's not that I'm addicted, I just need better ways to spend my time.

Guilty, but I went on a $5000 dollar spree yesterday to get a new TV, crapload of movies, several books and mangas, new clothes, and a custom paint job on my car, among other things. I still have enough left over to buy that house across the street and start up a real estate business.

Tch, not even Scotland is that liberal on drinking, she must've picked up a can on the way to school and drank it. Or someone left some out and she quaffed it down. Little kids will drink anything.

^Which is exactly why this world is going to Hell in a handbasket. Intolerance breeds more intolerance, and we're not doing enough to stamp it out. Makes me wonder why forcing biased beliefs on kids isn't classed as child abuse or welfare endangerment.

Rhinoplasty is basically cosmetic surgery done on the nose. From Rhino for nose, and Plassein for To Shape. Informally called a nose job.

Aspergers syndrome and hallucinations. The AS makes it hard to fall asleep, and the hallucinations make me sit up and say "The Hell!?". Good thing I can get by on hardly any sleep these days.

Huge fortunes can be made from drugs, but it's also one of the riskiest businesses in the world, mainly cause if you start pushing drugs in gang territory, you better pay some protection money or they'll never find your body.

Now, that's one good reason to avoid drug dealing.

Thing is, they need to get off drugs either way. They should be sentenced to prison, but at the same time, get an early release if they take up rehab while in prison, and stay clean. That's the best of both worlds.

Boo hoo hoo.  She just waltzed in, squandered her money, and threw a bitchfit over it. Casinos aren't legally required to kick out people with gambling problems, that's like banning someone from a store for having a shopping addiction.

She'll lose, it's her own damn fault she wasted her money. She chose to start gambling, she chose to keep gambling, and chose to spend that much money. One thing I know about addictions, is that you keep at it by your own free will so you can get your high. It her problem, not the casinos, they broke no law, thus, they're not responsible.

Sounds rather fishy, I admit, there are a lot of things that can be treated by laser, but this is the first time I've heard of tobacco addiction being one of them. I'm rather skeptical about the whole thing, though if it works, then it works. Not forking out $450 to try it out though.

Yeah, everyone seems to care about the celebrities, but they don't seem to be interested in those 5 soldiers killed in Baghdad, and how some idiots reported the whereabouts of Prince Harry who is serving in the army just now.

But for some strange reason, when my neighbor said "Y'all hear the news?", I asked what happened, and apparently, Lisa Marie suing a newspaper is 'news'.

I've never heard a recorded case of someone killing themselves out of anger at another person. It takes extreme levels of guilt and depression to drive someone to suicide. If she makes him so upset and angry, why does he stay with her?

Tch, when a four year old drinks half a pint of beer, you don't drop them off at school, you take them to a hospital. A little kid like that can wind up with serious liver damage if that's the case. At least the got to the bottom of it.

Yup, in a few states, you can't live anywhere near a school if you're a sex offender, let alone teach in one. And that's for any sex offender, not just child molesters. I quite agree with that rule, cause most sex-related crimes involve victims who can't properly defend themselves against their attacker.

Well maybe casinos should have rules like if you're at a bar; making it so they would legally have to cut you off it you have had too much. If that lady was there 5 days straight in the same clothes and not eating anything then I think that's a red flag. Of course, casinos are big and it could be hard to spot, but hopefully something can be done.



Nah, then the high-rollers would get pissed off at being asked to leave, and the Casinos would lose business. Besides, there are loads of Casinos in places like Vegas, they'll just take their fortune elsewhere.

Probably the brain. Lasers can also emit radiation, or it works like a patch and stimulates the skin itself. I don't really feel like looking it up, most medical treatments have 23874 frauds behind them

Anyone can succumb to addiction. Any age, any sex, any race, any walk of life. Some people have an odd condition where they don't get used to a certain exposure over a period of time or at all, they might not be so suceptible to building up resistance to the drugs but it's not something we should toy with.
