    Antidiscrimination - how much 'protection' is ethical?

    You know what struck me as odd. When my wife was applying for a jobs back home, it was REQUIRED to include a photo with your resume at nearly every firm. I couldn't believe it. Why does a big 4 accounting firm need your photo with your resume? Could you imagine them trying to get away with...

    Ever notice how much bigger we Americans are..

    We eat sooooo much compared to the rest of the world. I remember recently when i went out to dinner with my wife she was amazed at the 'little' kids sitting across from us eating like 10lbs of food. I guess its not so common in Europe, she was shocked to watch these 'little' fat kids eat as...

    Honda Accord fuel/tranny problems

    Don't you have any transmission places that look all ghetto and runned down? Those are where you should be going. They'll get you one that works and throw it in for under $1000 for sure. It will be remanufactured, or if you really wanna be cheap, from a junk yard, rather than new, but it will...

    Honda Accord fuel/tranny problems

    Of course they could. The dealer is ALWAYS scamming people. They always charge twice to three times the market rate for everything! That's why only foolish people go to the dealer for repairs of any kind. PT is right, that's way too much. You SHOULD be able to get it done for about $500 to...

    Hey, maybe you should tell her exactly what it is you are praying for, and maybe she'll give it to you. You could ask her, "do you think God answers prayers?" Then you could say, well, then... :D

    Justin, I don't know what to say. It could work out fine. Just be patient. My wife is one of those good Catholic girls so I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. They are worse than the "born-again" types in many cases. The 'born-again' types seem to come around easier if that's any...

    Yeah, but was she like this before? How long ago did she "see the light?" It's probably a phase! Usually these things don't last. If so, she'll lighten up, and become like before, hopefully though not quite exactly like before though :(

    What an ultramaroon

    Restoring order could take a while. And then, don't forget, Iraqis elect the leader. Who do you think they will elect? It's not over yet. The war went well, but the final outcome is still in question. Better keep those psyops guys in place until after elections ;)

    Too good to be.. lying?

    I'm curious if there is even a shred of truth upon which these tabloid lies are based. They are always so outrageous. It's really too bad there is probably no such person :(

    Affirmative Action Grading

    I didn't mean to imply that its the ONLY way to get a job. I just said it's relative. You are gonna go farther if you know people. A friend of mine got a job at a top tier Ibank with one phone call. We're talking about the difference between starting at 45k or less (back in the good economy)...

    Justin, what happened? Well, I hope you did the right thing. The thing about these religious nuts, especially women, is that some of them take it upon themselves to 'f@#k for christ' and all that good shit. Preacher's daughters are infamous for this approach. They figure they are doing...

    Affirmative Action Grading

    Well, graduating from the right college will only take you so far. Eventually, it all comes back to knowing the right people. Two guys go to Yale, one is a 4.0 with no connections, and the others dad is the director of CIA and later becomes prez, but graduate number 2 barely graduates. Who...
