  1. Right you are CL. Iska dhici dhamiinka.
  2. LOL. Well you know, more than 25% of people who have ever died were found to have inhaled air containing more than 78% nitrogen and only 20% oxygen. And they didn't even know it! Back to the interstellar travel article, this cracked me up: The remainder of this paper is, will be, or has been, depending on the reader's inertial frame, divided into three sections
  3. CL, cat got your tongue?
  4. Lily, who me? *wipes fingers on shirt*. LOL @ Geeljire. Here's another one. The Dangers of Bread 1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread eaters. 2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests. 3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever and influenza ravaged whole nations. 4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread. 5. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month! 6. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low occurrence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease and osteoporosis. 7. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water to eat begged for bread after only two days. 8. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jelly, peanut butter and even cold cuts. 9. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person. 10. Newborn babies can choke on bread. 11. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute. 12. Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.
  5. Lazyzie, she's saying the statistic doesn't apply to them. Must you be so difficult?

    ^Gag me with a spoon.
  7. Obama wins Mississippi No big surprise there, but a good excuse to check out Mr. Smooth.
  8. LOL. Yaa midkaan u jilciya? Woman: Some call me a lady of negotiable affections while seeking my company. Man: Yeah, some people say I have a cleft palate when really my teeth are just widely spaced. Woman: Ummm, actually you do have a cleft palate. Man: So what was I, digging a well just now? In other words, "you broke our pledge of mutual self-delusion." Don't make me draw you a diagram, Faarax!
  9. ^This study is nearly as meaningless and alarmist Jimcaale. 1 in 4 teen girls has STD But: 1. STD means sexually transmitted disease, but the study shows at best sexually transmitted infections. There's an important difference between the two. 2. Of the 20 girls in a 100 with an STI, 18 have HPV. HPV has been in the news lately, but in fact infection with this virus is mostly harmless. Only a few people would get any symptoms, and even fewer women will get cervical cancer. 3. Most adults in America have HPV. So the finding that 1 in 4 teen girls has it is another way of saying teen girls are less likely to have HPV than adult women.
  10. Faarax, let me state it in a language you would understand. The guy basically said:
  11. Oooh, I got it now, after the 3rd re-reading. Well, at least I'm not as slow as Faarax
  12. I'm addicted to it My mom didn't know how dangerous it was, she started adding it to my milk when I was a baby. Sometimes she would just give me liquid DHMO straight up! If I don't consume at least a liter a day I start to feel ill.
  13. Faarax, facts like these right? "Dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO) is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death." Dihydrogen Monoxide: Unrecognized Killer!
  14. Geeljire, reminds me of the well known study on the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide.
  15. I still don't get it. But maybe that's for the best.
  16. ^So that's where Rumsfield was coming from. "As we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know."
  17. Che, you didn't read what I wrote, did you? Did I say anything about his infidelity? 1. He's not above the law just because he's a well-liked elected official. If it's a harmless crime then the law should be repealed, instead of being applied selectively. 2. Spitzer himself investigated and prosecuted "prostitution rings" while he was the state attorney general. I can't believe you think that kind of hypocrisy is acceptable. P.S. I wonder why he was being wiretapped in the first place.
  18. LOL. Hey, I consider the head of a goat to be a true delicacy. So, it seems like Bacluul and I have something in common (I'm also incredibly intelligent obviously). As everyone knows we women are not so shallow as to ignore... Ah who am I kidding, I still would go with the pretty boy.
  19. Not only will he have to resign but he'll get prosecuted for breaking the law, no? Personally I don't care what people do in the privacy of their homes (or the local brothel as it were), UNLESS they are hypocrites, condemning others for their own failings. Then throw the whole book at them, I say. I hope Spitzer steps down gracefully. No Larry "Wide Stance" Craig defense please
  20. ^Yes, but now you can just call 911 if the camel thieves try any of that. Or call Visa/Mastercard and report that your geel has been stolen, you'll get a refund, no questions asked (if you used their credit card to make the purchase of course). So the eye candy can stay
  21. An interesting piece on Obama in the NY Times. Damning with faint praise.
  22. ^What's the difference? I've always thought Billy Crystal was a dreamboat. Don't get me started on Danny DeVito...
