    Nick Cannon Moving On

    I don't usually follow celebrity news and love lives... but this caught my eye clicking on a link. I want to give Nick Cannon daps and ask him how he does it? How he did it. He got his ex-wife back but in a younger version. I mean... she looks pretty much like his ex-wife. She's a singer like...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    LOL. Quite imaginative. I think you out did my ninja one (which I set in the modern urban USA of the 1980s) on that. Kudos. One of the greatest exports across the globe the USA has is Hollywood movies. Not sure about literature though. Although, both take some imagination. But yeah... I guess...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Never heard of that. Tragic. If Obama had two daughters probably wouldn't have looked like them. And two girls getting into a cab free of getting murdered by their father over their sexual organs, reproductive system, and romances, that's not what makes America great. Hey, Obama is mulatto...

    Pope Francis: Act charitably, take in immigrants—or give up tax-free status

    Or to put it another way... Why does the US news hate Putin but Russian news love Putin? And why did the US news ignore the German Church tossing out more cash to one region than the US Government passed out to the entire globe, or ignore years of the Vatican lobbying for immigrants, but all...

    Pope Francis: Act charitably, take in immigrants—or give up tax-free status

    That would put it in a different context. The only one I was aware of being paid by the government was the Catholic Church in Germany. But last time I read--some years ago--the German Catholic Church alone spends more money on Latin America than the United States Government/Nations budget for...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    The article says the cops arrested dude too. LOL!!! Crazy. Funny though. I don't think that kind of thing would have happened in the 1980s. Man, I kind of feel bad for kids today. The '80s had horrible fashion as I look back on it, but we kind of had a blast too, and the best teen movies of...

    Pope Francis: Act charitably, take in immigrants—or give up tax-free status

    Vatican City can fit inside Central Park in New York City. I didn't read most the article. However, why is the news reporting on the Popes remarks about refugees, given the fact for decades the Vatican has had an office that has lobbied governments across the world on behalf of immigrants and...

    The Greatest Sin

    The greatest sin is not to murder a man but to forget. What do you think? The author of the book above suggests that's what Alexander Dumas, author of the Three Musketeers believed and tried to express in his fictional novels.

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Hmm... I have to admit I did think the boy's dark complexion and ethnicity is why he was picked on in part. Might still be the case, I don't know. But you have provided [an outstanding I might add] post and argument that makes me rethink that and have some doubt if "racism" or ethnocentric...

    Regarding judgement or importance we place--or don't place--on physical looks from face, hair, to the physique of legs, chests, arms so on... I fond this interesting in this book.

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Yeah, and for me intent matters too. Not just in this case but in a lot of things. However, a lot of people, most adults often times don't care what a kid's intent was. They will jump down his throat. Of course it has to violate certain PC kinds of things. Like a clock made out of a pocket...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Ah, okay, that would make more sense then. Or at least shift the context of its encasement more.

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Naw, I never took an electronics class, is that supposed to be weird or something? Okay, but why the brief case? Let's say he made a clock out of a pocket vagina. Just for argument sake. Would not President Obama applaud him and invite him to the White House as well as everyone that applauds...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    I would advice students not to make clocks out of AK-47's or clocks that look like pistols. Given today's climate and cops being quick to shoot quickly anyone they think might have a gun. I still have a question as to why a clock was made in which it is hidden inside a suitcase. Year 1920 that...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    This kid is def. smart. Smart than I am. But I do have one question though. And maybe there is a good answer, I don't know. But why did he make a clock that is inside a brief case? I do wonder if part of his intentions were to cause a stir a bit or be "provocative"? Or maybe those were not...

    Irving 9th-grader arrested after taking homemade clock to school

    Part of our training in the US Marines was to work with--at a familiarization level--det. cord, blasting caps, and C-4. All of which I was paranoid working with--especially when one instructor made me and the Marine I was working with run back up to our explosive and reapply the blasting cap...
