I drive a Ford Explorer (waits for tomato throwing to commence) and I like it. Though I do understand the acronym: FORD: Fixed Or Repaired Daily I guess I am wishy-washy on my boycotts. I don't buy Nike or McDonald's, yet I overlook Ford. I even st...  [Read More]

As was stated earlier, the Family Development Class sounds like a good idea. I come from divorced parents (who stayed together for around 18 or so years) and sometimes divorce is just something that happens when people grow apart. And sometimes it is...  [Read More]

I think it should be up to the individual school. I don't always know if I would agree with their ideas, but in my opinion I think that the school can choose what it wants to teach their students within limits. To consider the circumstances of the si...  [Read More]

I reckon you are of a decent age. Are you suggesting that it's unprofessional to have sex? Everyone has sex, to deny that and call it unprofessional is like calling it a sin. Do you think that if you put 150 men and 10 women in a very, very confined...  [Read More]
