    What crime did Jeffrey Archer commit?

    My first thought was "Eh? Who?" But that may just be because I do notlive in the country in question(UK?). Bookie, a piece of advice for asking questions: Make sure you're clear and concise so people actually know what you're talking about. It often helps with getting useful answers out of...

    football mag for anyone?

    Perhaps because your headline makes no sense whatsoever. Were you asking what *our* favourites are or did you mean for the topic to be about this 'Match'? And you have yet to tell us two things: 1. which country you live in that apparently has such a steep price on the mag and 2. what that...

    Weirdest Book

    The Woman Who Gave Birth To Rabbits - Emma Donoghue I picked it up second-hand without knowing anything about it or its author because its peculiar topic attracted me - and indeed it does have great potential. The author has through her work as a historian come across a multitude of anecdotes...

    William Golding: Lord Of The Flies

    But I think you're right, Kristo. While stereotypes are not foolproof facts for determining people's characters it is quite likely that a majority of the girls in such a scenario would indeed be skilled in emotional warfare - also known as The Art of Being a Girl" :p

    Has a crime been commited here?

    Anyone on that forum will likely have their own problems, and thus I will not hold them responsible for 'should have helped'. See there was this guy in my life some years back who really needed me, I prevented him from suicide, and you know what? Now I regret having done that for it caused me...

    Out of curiosity...

    I got one but it was about millions of dollars made on Russian oil. I got the exact same mail to two of my email addies within three days... Suffice to say that I didn't even have to think twice before deleting it while laughing.

    Will women pay for it?

    Because we can get it for free - that's why we wouldn't pay :p

    Ignore options

    Am I totally off mark here? Gods how embarrassing. I was referring to the fictional crush thread... where I was sure you'd said you'd fight me for Hettar. I was too lazy to go check... still am *sigh* I should just go to sleep :p

    Florida idea for Drunk Drivers....

    ROFLMAO Thanks for a wonderful laugh, MC :D

    Will women pay for it?

    Moto, I think the question is: Do you think men will ever get so picky that women would have to resort to paying for it? :p ;) Hehe, couldn't help it

    Has a crime been commited here?

    That may be so, but everyone here is very quick to assume that no one talked to the girl about her angst and her issues. Do we know this? No. I simply refuse to believe that she got onto the forum, asked her question, got her answer and did it. She had been communicating with the people in there...

    Gary Glitter in trouble in Vietnam

    I'd look again if I saw them together on the street, mind you. I'd also be wondering what the heck she sees in that dude. But as such I see nothing wrong. However, as Moto points out: if she's been there since before she turned 15 I'd have a problem with it. And even though she's 15 I'd of...

    Updates From the Mods sticky

    Hmm it's not a bad idea as such, but (there's always a but) I think we, as members, should take care not to get too focused on knowing everything. This is ultimately a 'tyranny', and we don't need to know everything. I have no particular urge to know what the results of Mod discussions are, I...

    In the spirit of a post long ago: "I'll fight you for her" ... Or something :p

    Gary Glitter in trouble in Vietnam

    No issue here. In DK 15 is the age of consent. So morally I've no problems with that. Legally: he's an idiot to break the laws of the country where he's staying, that's just asking for trouble.

    Mother forces daughter to wear sign

    In other words, the good behaviour that we expect of everyone is to be rewarded. This means that we'll be raising children who will be expecting pay-rises whenever they do their job. The job they're already paid to do. No, I believe that only exceptionally positive behaviour should be awarded...

    an interesting book about suicide...

    Aye, I mean if it truly depictied what went on in her head there would be no need for neither angels or demons... hence my strong doubts.
