By and large genetics account as much towards good health and longevity as anything else.
Of course for this study, it's not that I would live longer, just that it would feel like it.

Count me in as a skeptic of the broken handle theory.

Now this is a NEAT story. What ingenuity and innovation.

It wasn't a tree or lamppost it was an uncovered manhole. The DEP guys were at fault. However, only if she sustained monetary damages, ie; medical bills, should she be entitled to sue.

Landlords and tenents need to know their rights and their responsibilities. As sure as there are deadbeat tenents there are evil landlords, but if you know your rights and live up to your responsibilities there shouldn't be problems. Where are the courts in this case? I would think if this landlord followed their legal rights then she should be able to forcefully evict this deadbeat. Maybe it's different in the UK.

clinton robert labombard, I make a little more than double what you make and a little more than half of the average listed on the graph. You must be making minimum wage. Are you married? Have kids? How old are you? I haven't made minimum wage since my first job out of high school. I'm making considerably more than that now yet through downsizing and cuts due to the economy I'm making about 20% less than I was a couple of years ago. I spend nothing on alcohol but considerably more on reading. Housing for me is way higher (I live in California) but I spend nothing on tobacco or education. While interesting, CJJ is right, this chart doesn't give enough information to really compare it against ourselves.

What is wrong with a keyring which collects numerous keys? Too many keys? Add another ring. This seems like a solution to a problem that never was.

Because the breed fits the lifestyle.

What a story. Having had problems with my weight all my life I'm both amazed and pleased that he was able to not only take the weight off but keep it off these last two years. Taking the weight off is ultimately the "easy" part. Keeping it off has always eluded me. His story is a real inspiration and I'm sure his mom would be so proud. A pox on all those bullies and misguided cretins of his youth.

I can turn iron into gold within a golden bubble. How exactly that bubble would be created is a mystery but once it's created I'll be rich!

If the posts are tweets are those posting twits?

I enjoyed this link. The obvious thing is most of these people know they can't Moonwalk, but I thought some of these attempts were very funny. I'm now in search of a Macarena website for the Upcoming Queue.

When I think of all the time I could have been making a shirt from the beverage container of my choice instead of wasting my time on the internet I just feel...vindicated! How comfortable or practical is a blouse like that?

This might be opening a can of worms but I say we never saw Robin Masters on "Magnum P.I.". Sure the writers threw in a lame, Jonathan Higgins was actually Robin Masters, but if you watched the whole series this never made sense. There were too many plot points over the years that don't fit into this scenario like guests of Masters that came to Robin's Nest yet didn't react to Higgins. I tjink the writers just wanted to tie things up to end the series. Of course there's always the chance I'm completely off base but I'm sticking to my theory.

It's just that when any part of my bacon turns blue, I throw it out.
