here, here! If it is just for "pick-up" an sp is so much better in almost any way. I've been widowed for over 5 years now, in my early 50's, grown kids, and just can't imagine dealing with all the complications of navigating personal relationships. But I'm still a man with a surviving sex...

Just how many people want to live a life in a vegetative state? Saving lives is only one aspect of the data.

I think the better conclusion from those numbers is that CPR should be avoided--those numbers are absolutely terrible. You could reword a key statement above to "strangers on the street are almost as BAD as trained hospital staff!!!" There are worse things than death. I'll repeat something...

For me personally I just find nothing more beautiful than an Asian woman's face. The shape of the eyes, the high cheek bones, the full lips, the the clean-lined shape of the neck and jaw-line--all-in-all the epitome of femininity. Hell quite a number of Asian guys can look more feminine in a...

I have not read this entire thread so I may be repeating a point that someone has already made. CPR is NOT what most people think it is. Its overall success rate is about 8%. More to it though. 3% of that 8 will be just fine and dandy. Another 3% will spend the rest of their life in a...

One of (or two rapidly delivered of) the following lines will insure success: If I told you that you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me? You know what would look good on you? Me! Are you a pirate? Cause I want cho booty. If I followed you home, would you keep me? Are those...

This stuff can always cut both ways. I'm a Canadian living and working in the US and still remember the uneasy feeling I had when I was at the border taking care of some immigration paperwork during the start of the Iraq war. There I was waiting my turn when some guy with a British passport...

I have not seen the movie yet. But I thought I heard that the important role played by Canada was relegated to a minor footnote at the end of the movie?

The whole thing does sound a bit too crazy to not have some kernel of truth to it. It's consistent with a personal theory of mine: Whenever some organization consists entirely of males, it all just goes to absolute shit.

That poll rating scheme makes no sense.

and exactly why should gay men not be able to adopt? Could you elaborate on your concern here? Is your concern: 1. pedophilia? 2. making that child gay? 3. subjecting that child to a harmful environment? if so, 1. gay ≠ pedophilia (straight men have been known to molest young girls, and...

I think you missed 27leaffan's sarcasm--I'm pretty sure he agrees with you. The rich really do need to be taxed more than the not so fortunate and the 999 plan is simply social injustice. A flat across the board tax is not fair in a progressive society. The "rich" can be viewed as individuals...

Substitute yesteryear's alcohol with today's illicit substances (& services) and do we presently have much of a different situation?

You're actually conflating separate issues here. Intelligence (as measured by your standard IQ tests) does correlate with educational level, but these really are separate constructs. I think many people would very surprised by just how poorly their folk conceptions of "intelligence" actually...

In all honestly age IS important to me. I prefer more mature SPs (30+). I just don't feel comfortable being with an SP that is young enough to be my daughter (I just turned 50). There is considerable variation of course, but I also do tend to fine the more mature SP as actually being sexier...
