    Did people in ancient times have better memories than we do today?

    I'm writing a report on the spread of Buddhism, and in the First Buddhist Council Buddha's followers compiled all of his teachings into one compendium of knowledge - but they did it all without writing. As in, they recalled (supposedly verbatim) the words he had used when preaching, and then...

    Anyone else hate the recent overuse and misuse of the words "epic"?

    It drives me insane! I hear it all the time and I'm 100% sure that truly epic events do not happen all that often. To Raludac Utera: They may not be misusing it completely but they are definitely exaggerating the meaning. The definition of epic: very imposing or impressive; surpassing the...

    Does anyone know where I can find instructions on how to make an armband ipod holder?

    I want one of these so I can listen to my ipod touch while working out, but I am not willing to shell out 30 bucks for one at the store. So does anyone know how to make one, or a website that has info on how to make one? I am pretty limited in my resources and my sewing skills, so simpler is...

    My jib on my Chrysler Buccaneer has come detached. How do I re-attach?

    You might want to check out the yahoo group and ask the question there. I believe they came with a small furler that the sail luff wire clips to on the roller, and a swivel at the masthead. You may have lost the hardware that attaches the luff wire eyes to these parts. You will need some...

    Given how much CA & MI spend on jails, would it be cheaper to give males in LA &...

    They should give all criminals 40K and a one-way ticket to the socialist paradise of Cuba. Unfortunately, they have to keep pumping money into the unions that operate the prisons.

    Do you AGREE with me that it is only the MEDIA who still praises Obama this time?

    And people that aren't paying attention. I actually have known quite a few people who were praising the guy. Come to think of it, no one praises him anymore...even those who don't pay attention.

    Anyone else wish that Greg had a prime time rant show?

    Yes, I am talking about Greg Gutfeld--host of Red Eye. Anyone else wish that he had a prime time cable show to where he could rant and do his Greg thing? I enjoy Red Eye. It is quite comical! All of the situational irony, intentional errors and clowning on of Bill. What is not to love? I...

    Notice that they haven't given a crap in a long, long time? I believe that the NAU is becoming closer and closer to being officially recognized. As the EU, it is going to be one of those things that we will all wonder how it happened when we are all of a sudden under one flag and one...

    Anybody else here eager to dodge a military draft?

    I would love to do it myself but unfortunately I don't have a prayer of being drafted as I am almost 28. These wars are over nothing more or less than large government contracts for those that run our country and we have no business fighting them. If only people would get it, but what is the...

    News Flash: Not all conservatives and republicans are Christians.?

    I am a conservative myself and practice no religion. I wouldn't take it personally from these liberals. They get all of their political data from VH1, MTV, TMZ and tabloid magazines. If they did any research on what liberalism actually is, they may realize that they aren't one.
