You should speak to the administration then. I'm a high school student and in all of my classes last year, there were only two people who fervently texted, and the others who ever texted in school waited until a free period or lunch.

I have rather excessive facebook use. I currently have a 4.0 in school (highest grades possible). It all depends how well you can cope with time management. Heck, I even use facebook for helping my grades (I use facebook for multiple projects to collaborate with others in real time).

Wasn't it King James II?

A few of my friends did a foreign exchange in France before. They told me that to get by, you should store a whole box of granola bars because their portions are so small that you'll never get full.

I got the G62-457DX Notebook. The one FilterJoe told you about sounds really good, but if you want other options, I've really liked this one.I bought it for about $400 at my local Best Buy (I live in New England too so I don't think prices will vary much) and it's worked like a charm. The screen can get dusty at times…

You are indeed a freak. I waste a good day every year on two plane flights. I almost go out of my mind each time because I'm forced to stay in a confined area for around 12 hours, then wait another 2 hours at the airport.

In Egypt I have worse than that and it's doable really. I mean, it isn't as good as a normal 2 mbsp but it works.

I'm sure. I don't know if it even comes to us and my state is supposed to have really good FiOS coverage

I live in America and I've never encountered internet speeds faster than 3 mbps.

You know, a few years back and for just a while now, there have been suggestions for the United States of Africa.

Back when I was little and didn't understand people used black as a race I would get angry at the word black. I would just be like, "BUT THEY AREN'T BLACK! THEY'RE BROWN!"

Back when I was 4 years old or so, as a little Arab foreigner who knew no language except Arabic, my only friends and best friends were an Asian boy (who was also new and didn't speak English) and an African American girl (who I honestly cannot remember much beyond what she looked like) who were in my preschool. I…

Playboy is about women as sexual objects. If that's empowering then his is right.

The Arab states are pretty dumb actually. They have a self-inflated view and all of our leaders are corrupt.

I had this long semi-essay post about the Middle East and Israel and the Anti-Semitism there and then it got lost.

So, I realize how to dispose of a pipe bomb, but I still don't know how to defuse any bombs.

It may not explain it correctly since it is religious, but Islamic tradition has it that the moon split into two at one point and then rejoined.

Er, why does it cost an extra $90k per year to house an inmate on death row? It doesn't seem to make sense to me. Are the chemicals used to kill them that expensive? I mean, I know they are scarce, but that expensive?

Most likely result of what will happened: They'll get raped in jail. Or at least that's what Law and Order has led me to believe.

The place in which adequate food is prepared.
