If my brother was in the hospital, then he would be the one that is the patient.

I'm not disputing the facts that melanin will not fully protect you; I was disputing the claim of it damaging the melanin. I cannot find anything that corroborates that statement. If you know of any, please post a link. I don't mind being proven wrong if there are facts.

I have to appreciate a man who reads the Eddas.

Too many times to remember. I was happy when they came out with the remote locks.

I could see where it could be a contest but not a sport.

I must be going to the wrong areas...I've never seen anything that I would really consider inappropriate.

Actually, part of my explanation wasn't fully correct:

Independence Was Not Declared on July Fourth: The second Continental Congress actually voted for independence on July 2. In fact, John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail, predicting that future generations would celebrate July 2 as Independence Day, saying, "The second day of July, 1776, will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illumination, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forevermore." July 4, 1776 is significant because that is the day that Congress officially adopted the Declaration of Independence document, but contrary to what many people believe it was not signed on the July 4. The official signing ceremony occurred on August 2, which is when most of the signers affixed their names to the document, but other representatives signed the document throughout the summer of 1776. Finally, there is no historical record of John Hancock saying that his signature is that big so that King George could read it. It has been suggested that Hancock's is by far the largest signature simply because he was the president of Congress.

Sh*t outta(slang for out of, since you may be unfamiliar with American slang) luck.

It's okay. As far as no pockets, I guess you're SOL.

A teacher should only raise their voice to gain the attention of a loud and/or disorderly class. But there are other ways, like banging a stapler like a gavel. Other than that, a teacher should always maintain their cool.

This debate has run before, so I'll answer the same as before. I wish that every time I reached into my pocket that I would have the exact amount of cash to purchase whatever I need or want.

Actually, I was referring to Oprah.

I doubt it...two cows on Oprah is just too many.

Art, of any form, develops the mind. It exercises a part of the mind that is not always used. So yes, it should be taught because the idea is to enlighten and expand the minds of our youth. I had art class in one year of junior high and I was horrible in it. But i still think it's worthwhile. The only thing artistic about me now is that I taught myself to play the Native American flute.

The fourth is the celebration of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. But all the rest that you listed are true. As far as the death of British soldiers, there were many casualties on both sides. But the fight for freedom was worth it to get out from under England's rule and taxes.

Okay, you made me register to see it... I wish I was that cat.

I think he may have been in too much of a hurry to get another debate going.

Believe me, they do. I've done clinicals in nursing homes and many wear them. Only they refer to them as adult briefs so it doesn't belittle the resident.

Maybe, the missing link?

Looks like you have to sign up to see what you see. Or it's not Mac friendly.

Okay, now it has appeared up there.

I think we may need a link, Joe.

Since I'm against organized religion, I would never force my child(ren) to go. But I would not prevent it either if they wanted to explore options and learn what is out there so they can make an educated decision of their own.

Well, I tried to show some remorse. Lol ;)
