You can't graduate if your sick or dead. Sometimes erring on the side of caution is the way to go. Look at the big picture, The hysteria will die down soon.

are you seriously worried about this?
pig flu...

south texas
i live in Laredo and both of our school districts have closed until 05/18. what i don't understand is why? there have been no confirmed cases in the city, and the border patrol agent have found no infected people crossing from Mexico either.

Believe me guys
I live in México and all this "flu" is more related to media to make people to have fear than the real epidemic
All is matter to be carefull but that´s it
Nothing else
This flu thing is more related to powerfull pharmaceutical people than any other reason....

About 130,000 people have died from the regular flu this year. Swine flu? About 300...
Don't believe the hype.

There's nothing to be afraid of, theres worse things to be afraid of.

Mercury in our food, pollution, extreme weather, and MANY more things.

The Shock Doctrine
The shock doctrine has applied here on mexico...
Our gub is near of getting a big big gift... p) from the FMI near 250,000,000,000 mexican pesos and they need to distract the people...
Here on the capital where the trouble is... has died 16 people because of the Swine Flu? under the normal death rate daily!!!
Many many Laws has been accepted when our eyes cant see on the news or newspaper all over the Swine FLU!!!
Media has been sold to the Gub... it sucks really but is our gub...
Nothing to fear believe us... i dont live where it starts but even if in my state! the people is crazy about that... fear and unconcience of their acts! many commercial stores has stop and close thier sell because of this...
this going to dissapear when the gub has his money... but take care about this flu... it exist but it exist too a cure.
Is too much the attack to us in sports and tourism... come on guys! wanna a pandemy or epidemy? wanna Ebola! thats an pandemy!!

Mexico is what? a nice place to virus?
like all moms said if you travel to mexico dont drink their water? what da?
first of all... all countries has its poor zones where the trash is all over the streets where the water is contaminated on mexico we dont have nuclear power stations so... what happend? i think none virus can live there even we all...
This is all about the fear to mexico... but its truth... the only thing you can fear to mexico... is... deport all mexican people back here... and then... the drug market will xpand to you all... not to just buy... to make it there or to kill inocents there... and we are afraid to live without USA, the kindless true.
Must to have a big wide vision about countries...

Good God, I am old....

im not quite sure i understand... oh wells, hows it feel to be old? or at least older than me?

You have all the stuff your parents *****ed about while you were growing up to look forward to. The older you get the more you wish you could go back in time and re live high school. Resposibility comes with age and responsibilty just sucks.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!........
good day.
@souljaboy ummmm, goodnight/morning or what ever friggin time it is where you are.

hmmmm.... so its taxes, getting married, taxes, having kids, taxes, marital stress, taxes, and parental stress, and then living out the rest of your life in decreasing health conditions, which add ANOTHER layer of stress. did i mention taxes? isnt growing up just great?
new plan for my life: either invent time machine or youth potion.

At 43, can't really complain, altough I did had some troubled time last months (not really finished, but close). But as the saying goes, a problem can be an oportunity, so I'm starting all over!
Yeap, single again, moving to another city, changing my professional life upside down, new friends, new girlfriends...
Life's good at 43, feeling like 20+.
Hey, OP, congrats, and don't worry, for every con, there's a pro.

*lays back in computer chair*
ahh that's the life of a twelve year old.
I really don't want to grow up

Very sad, yet very true. I saw a clip if it on YouTube and I will say, though I am DEFINITELY not the first, that he is a 12 year old girl trapped in the body of a boy who came to realize that and somehow managed to turn himself into Americas most desirable minor.

On Topic:
Not much older then you, I am 23 mid october - but I am loving how things are in my life. Okay so there are loats of responsibilities, and a mortgage. But at the same time, the things that come with them are well worth it! I have a gorgeous fianceé and a wonderful daughter, and a nice big house just for the 3 of us!
I didn't go to Uni, thats the con. But the pro: I wouldn't have all of what I have if I did!
Off Topic: Justin Beiber is still alive? I heard/hoped he was done with...

Can't answer your quiston cuz im younger than you But HappY BirthDaY for tomorow

well... its not that great, but at my school today, me and some friends put a sign on a step saying "broken step, please step over".
the fact that the step was made out of concrete and quite obviously not broken made it hell funny to watch as people jumped the metre or so long gap over the step XD

April Fools day is on the 2nd in the UK

We have the fools day in México on Dec 28

Hahaha Epic

Hmmm... I was in hiding this year thanks to the epic prank I pulled off last year...
So, a friend of mine was getting married on the 2nd of April (being Friday and all) and so I got him (bridegroom) drunk on 31st March. I pretended to drink too much and passed out earlier than my friends. With another of my prankster buddy, we subsequently spiked every bottle that we didn't drink with the local equivalent of 4loko eXtreme edition. Now, we got partying up to about 6am on 1st April and by then, most of them are out, but the two of us are pretty much alright.
So we then changed the dates on everyone's watches, handphones and whatever nots, and even got the bride's family and the wedding planners into the prank. The wedding reception was planned to be in the morning at 9am, so I got the planners to wake the guys up at 8.30. Needless to say, the groom panicked and everybody got into the car. In the ensuing confusion, I made sure that everybody was wearing mismatched suits and ties.
When they arrived at the bride's place to pick her up (Malaysian tradition, because we go to the church together), the bride's whole family laughed and shouted April's Fool!
I suppose I was still not forgiven for the prank. The bride seems to have enjoyed it but the groom was out for revenge since then. Of course, I drank so much on the bachelors party that I puked (punishment for the prank), and they nearly let me drown in my own vomit.
So that's why 2011 was a quiet year for me... I'm not sure I would survive this time around...

Haha, I remember this one for next year at our company!!!

Has the word THANKS and SORRY become to cheap?

Do you think that, too?

Quite the opposite, i reckon they're still not used enough. Of course it's become easier to do online but people are still reserved and reticent to be polite to strangers. Natural reaction i guess. Perhaps the fact that people are being polite online may carry over to real life eventually?
Personally i've always found myself being awkward in real life social situations and heartfelt stuff just makes it worse. Gotta be drunk for that stuff! No such problem saying Thanks, please, sorry etc on here though.

I don't think the mods will like that. A "thank you" is a thing you'll have to deserve.

I will however 'Thank' any currently serving, or previously serving, member of any of the Armed Services on principal.
Should the OP decide to enlist and serve his Queen and Country i will be the first to hit that button!

Luckily for you, i am the queen Now, let's get f-ed up gentlemen!

Bless 'em. (They're not mine so i only have to digest them in bite sized chunks).
When i was younger i had terrible trouble admitting when i was wrong. I would defend my argument long after it had stopped being logical. I think that's common too. It stings the pride. I'm glad i'm not like that any more.

The ones here are 4 (boy) and 5 (girl) and boy does she think she's the boss! My landlord is the most patient people person i've ever known, and is far too kind to be a disciplinarian, (he took me in after all), but she takes every advantage of the fact.
"Daughter of mine, you're going to bed soon so turn off that computer and go brush your teeth".
"No daddy, we don't go to bed at this time and i will play this some more, and then i will watch television for a while...", in the sweetest voice imaginable, as if she's explaining the way things are to a total idiot.
I love it! She always does what i ask her though.

I searched but didn't find any thread like this...
There are many people here who would travel to different cities, states, countries...
And not everyone knows about everything!
Yes, there's Google, you can search, check reviews...
But wouldn't it be better if we could have some 1st hand information here?
So that someone traveling somewhere new doesn't get harassed unnecessarily...
Also, we could have posts describing the specialties of your region/zone...
Anything social, political, cultural facts...
This could help a lot of people when need be...
If there's anything wrong in it, mods feel free to close the thread... but i just hope we could help each other with a lot many things this way...

The UK is the armpit of Europe. If you come here you will get ripped off by everybody, not just taxi drivers. The beaches don't have sand..or sun for that matter. We specialize in going out on weekends playing catch the STD and throwing up on pavements.
Most of the population think Eastenders is the height of cultural entertainment and our politicians take it in turns every few years to see how hard they can screw the working man over.
You'd be better off going on a camping tour of Pripyat than taking a holiday in the UK.

I'd talk about my City...
Kolkata (earlier Calcutta) is an old Indian Capital City ( Now the Capital Is New Delhi)...
When the British ruled India, calcutta was their capital... So there are some pretty old British monuments, architecture etc...
It is a lazy city... The average summer temperature has been on the rise, it goes to a max of about 45 degree Celsius...
A drop in temperature below 20 degrees is supposedly winter time here!
We have great rains in July-August that floods a few regions...
The population of the city including its suburbs is about 15million! Wherever you go, you'd see people people people!!
There are some nice places to visit, i'll try getting some pics sometime later...
People in general are nice, but you see, there are every kind of people everywhere...
Politically, the communist party was in power from the 70's till a year and a half back...
It's an old, lazy life-style city, will glimpses of sparks during the festive season!
Will post some pics of the festivity that went on last week... it's majestically beautiful
If anyone plans coming to Kolkata (Calcutta), do drop a message to me for sure!

After a day LARPing around in hundred acre woods near Boarhunt, we went to the Ship Inn for a drink, when one of the guys said "Don't look, but that guy at the bar used to be in the Monkees"
Of course we all turned around then realised we didn't have a clue what anyone in the Monkees looked like, so Davy Jones was safe.

Bergen, Norway. The wettest place in the universe. We like to spend our time in front of computers, and being social means to spend $300 on overpriced beer and pizza. At summer time, a million eggshell white norwegians like to migrate to the south of the equator with our best buds, the swedes, and getting drunk and smashing things (much like the brits). We repeat this twice a year; summer and winter.
We also love to whine about everything.
