    Of Piranhas, Pythons, and Crocodiles: An Essay Against Evolution Denial

    Exactly. It is fun. I always regard writing something or just simply gathering information on something as a mental workout to keep those cells active. And in reality, it is just like that. My granma does sudoku and crosswords and stuff and is really fit, although she is over 80. Sadly...

    Of Piranhas, Pythons, and Crocodiles: An Essay Against Evolution Denial

    What is also interesting to me is that almost all "evolution" debates are similar to debates about economics. Both inherently have one thing in common that seperates them from the rest of natural and engineering sciences: They cannot experiment. Obviously, an experiment in economics is nearly...

    Of Piranhas, Pythons, and Crocodiles: An Essay Against Evolution Denial

    Bible_Belt, just because you can't contradict him does not mean that he is a jackass. In fact, you are probably the type of reader he wishes to reach.

    Of Piranhas, Pythons, and Crocodiles: An Essay Against Evolution Denial

    Deep Dish, I haven't read your essay in full yet, but I want to congratulate you on your explanation of scientific theory and how science works. Sadly enough, compartmentalization is the rhetoric Achilles' heel of science, as it opens the floor to sweeping generalizations by populists who wish...

    Engineer / Marketing

    One thing I can promise you is that you will need technical knowledge of the products you are marketing to your customers, and not just the business/marketing side of the products. This is why I started a mech. eng. degree, because I realized that eng. gives you the competence to indluge in...

    Good Stickshift Car?

    Well it doesn't really matter because usually the clutch/transmission/drivetrain components will not break first (unless you don't know how to drive a manual). More likely, you will have the usual electrical and engine/exhaust problems with your car beforehand. So I recommend you choose a good...

    Anyone knows solutions to acne problems?

    wet shaving with old fashioned shaving soap/cream, sharp razor and a badger brush do wonders. Do research on the net to find out more about this, it is a shaving technique developed by men for men, and thus will also do you worlds of good.

    Opening Sets At Parties/Clubs

    Well, perhaps I can help you by telling you my own experience: I live in a small town too. Last night we went to the school ball, which actually is prom and homecoming rolled into one, and I knew almost everybody there. But guess what? Because they hadn't seen me for at least a year, almost...

    Check if in your state you can have a voucher vouch for your information, such as your name. Then see if you can use something easily forgeable, such as a telephone bill, for use of address. Then use a school report or something of the like (easy to forge) to get your birthdate changed. Also...

    Linux

    I used it for a long time as a backup OS in case my Windows locked up and I needed access to files on my hard drive -- which happened more than once. Not to get too technical here, but you should look into partitioning off a part of your hard drive and installing a LILO onto the master boot...

    Ugh, squats!

    I got a good idea from PE at school: Get Swiss Ball. Put tit between yourself and a wall. Squat up and down, keeping your back to the ball and the ball on the wall. If you want, you can make your own weights, for example by filling water into milk jugs, using beer casks, pail filled with...

    Ok so how many girls watch porn?

    Women focus much more on the emotional side (duh). I ride the train to class, and at the station there's a newspaper stand. It sells Playboy, FHM, the works and also books such as: Nights of your dreams Boy meets girl Calender girls (Girls making nude calenders) It's all literotica, and women...
