Thanks all for responding! Quite the ahhhh wide variety of pies. LOL I am hosting Thanksgiving this year, and needed some pie flavor ideas. I am not much of a pie fan... although, I may have a few bites of the chocolate pecan one I think I am going to bake. Knee is doing well thanks Hula. Not ready for a marathon, but much better.

Who is right? Last month I found out I was pregnant by my boyfriend. We agreed to having an abortion

but I did not want to tell my parents or his. The only person I ever told anything to was my best friend Manny*. Well there was no way we could afford it on our own so we decided to think of other ways. My boyfriend had this expensive electric guitar that he really loved but said he would sell it to pay for the abortion. So he did, then gave me the money about 2 days before. Well that night for some reason my mother and I got into deep conversation and I told her my plans. She then said she would go with me and also that her insurance that covered me, would also pay for in full. So we went and did it and then with the money my boyfriend had given me I used it to recover, I bought comfort food and things that would make me feel better. I never told him about it, but turns out a few days ago my friend Manny told him how my mothers insurance paid for it and I didn't use his money for that purpose. He came to my house seriously angry, put a hole in my wall, broke a chair and told me to f off and that I knew he loved that guitar more than anything and spent the money from it on crap. Who do you think is right? I did not get myself pregnant, I am the one that had to go through the trouble of an abortion he did not have to do anything, so why shouldn't he have to pay such a small price?

Thanks for the responses, also no need to be rude. I am on birth control and have been for over a year without ever missing a dose. I am 19, and my mothers insurance covers me until I am 25 as long as I remain a full time student. I also know if I gave him back the money all he would of done was go buy his guitar back, I never realized what kind of man he actully is until recently.

Okay once again if you are not going to read the entire post do not bother to answer. I was on birth control for over a year without ever missing a dose, so stop saying I should of used preventitive measures, I DID. But guess what it obviously only 98% effective, like they have always made clear. I am sick of people thinking just because someone got pregnant they were not using preventitive measures!

Any Americans watch British TV?

So we all know alot of British watch American tv shows but do Americans watch much British stuff?

If so what do you like to watch and why?

Is the only station you have dedicated to British TV BBC America?

Update: November 19, 2009.
Ok so recommendations, There are so many iconic old skool British comedy shows,wich pathed the way for everyone else,the best are... A show called "Only Fools & Horses" its an old skool comedy show from the 70's and 80's and had 7 long series. this is my personal favourite. =) Shows called "Open all Hours" "Porridge" any shows wich feature "The Two Ronnies" (Ronnie Barker & Ronnie Corbitt) those guys are hailed as comedy genuises. As for films/movies the "Carry On Films" are very iconic films,there are many of those from the 50's 60's and 70's ( ones from 60's and 70's are the best) titles like "carry on nurse" "carry on camping" etc etc. also "On The Busses" films. these films were the orginal that pathed the way for future films like the "American Pie" films and "Porkys" and all those kinda simular films. Then obviously theres the whole "Monty Python" stuff. You will love them all i promice! =D

hey ihatescreennames, your ego is showing through. don't assume anything, and don't call people out when responding to my posts, it pisses me off. if you have something to say, PM that person.

which industry is the evilest in your opinion? and why?

Why won't my boyfriend let me drive his Corvette?!

My bf (of 5 mo) has a work truck and an 2002 Z06 Vette...he leaves for work every morn and takes his one single key to the Vette with him.

The other day I mentioned to him that my truck had a tire that needed air and I felt unsafe to drive it with my son in it. So, I would think that he would be considerate and offer me the key so I could take my son back to his dads 20 miles away on the highway. Not so much.

Is his car really that sacred to him that he'd rather see me drive and blow out a tire, with my son in the car, than to let me borrow his precious Vette?



Update: November 20, 2009.
Thanks everyone for your responses. I have driven the Vette to follow him to work one day. I don't know why all you men think that all these hot rod cars are so hard to handle? Puuuuhhhhhhlleeease.... I drove it just fine. I am deathly afraid of putting air in my tires and I actually look at them everytime I get in my truck. We have only been dating for 5 months, true, but he talks about marriage, kids etc. i am going to meet his whole family at Thanksgiving and we live together...so it's not like I am some random girl he is "dating". My son is 12 and has ridden in the Vette when my bf takes him back to his dads. And my ex-husband isn't going to scratch up the car. We all go to 6Flags together for Christs sake!~ Ugh anyways.

what do you think of Asian women?

Would we try Osama bin Ladin in civilian courts?

Sen. Lindsey Graham had an interesting Q&A with Attorney General Holder today. (Holder is Pres. Obama's Attorney General). According to NPR (National Public Radio), "The exchange started with Graham stumping Holder with a question one would have thought the attorney general would have been prepared for."

Graham basically pointed out that if we are going to try KSM in civilian courts, does that mean if we capture Osama bin Ladin, do we also try him in civilian courts? And he also asked if that means we have to read Osama bin Ladin his Miranda rights?

Holder was unable to answer these questions.

If you want to see this exchange, it's up on YouTube. I can send you a link if you can't find it.

Why is it that when some of us say - "let's treat enemy combatants in the war on terror the same way we treated enemy combatants during WWII", people like bailarenfuego say "gee that means you want us to be like Saudi Arabia or China". For all the vaunted liberal ability to see nuances - they can't seem to see any nuances here. It's either all one thing or all the other - but in reality we are talking about something in the middle.

Update: November 19, 2009.
xerxes - if Graham was merely raising a red herring - why did our Attorney General, Holder, not make that point? Assuming Xerxes is right - then Holder is incompetent, because he, our Attorney General, could not cogently state the point as well as some guy commenting on Answerology! Again, this does not inspire confidence.

Update: November 19, 2009.
BTW, my personal opinion - I think since the terrorists have declared war on us, we should treat them as enemy combatants and try them using military tribunals. Of course, if our soldiers meet them on the field of battle, they can just shoot them. Now, some people think that 9/11 was not a declaration of war by the terrorists - it was merely a terrorist attack. I suppose if they'd had a nuke and killed half the city, that would also be considered merely grounds for police action by some people. BTW, when a US citizen acts to destroy his or her own country, that used to be called treason... We absolutely do need to protect civil liberties. However, enemy combatants have never been given the same civil liberties as civilians. Our civil liberties were put in place to protect the rights of civilians, not to protect enemies trying to destroy us. International rules of engagement have been codified to deal with enemies. One point llasroh made that is quite a good point - why did we never make a formal declaration of war against the terrorists? I guess because the terrorists are not localized to any country, and we generally make a declaration of war against a particular country... at any rate, good discussion. I think the Obama administration is giving an appearance of weakness to our enemies, and this is dangerous for us in the long run. Some people obviously disagree. However, anyone familiar with the culture in places like Iraq knows that those people respect strength and look down on perceived weakness. That is one reason why strong men like Saddam were able to take power.

Update: November 19, 2009.
Hey, all, I do wish everyone would check out the exchange between Graham and Holder. It's on YouTube. The reason - Graham asks Holder some serious questions, including whether or not this would mean we now have to read terrorists Miranda rights on a battlefield. And Holder CANNOT answer the question - which means - either Graham is right, or Holder is incompetent. Neither option is particularly reassuring.

Now that H1N1 is everywhere...

Do you think that people are washing their hands more, or are there still the ones who leave the bathroom without washing their hands?

Update: November 19, 2009.
Just a follow up to Glasgobelle's response. It was on the news the other night, that some people are substituting hand sanitizers for hand washing. A doctor said that is not a good thing. There are bacteria on our hands that survive without air and so they are still on our hands and only washing out hands can get rid of them.
