Do you think the more news one views the more depressed u can get?

There was a news story about a new version of the common cold that is so virulent it kills about 7 - 9% of the people who get it, geez just when I thought -- Good I haven't gotten sick from Bird flu, now I have to worry about sneezing and coughing from colds.
unfortunately since Sept. 11th I feel obligated to turn on the news sporadically to make sure we're not being attacked again.

Answer
Lately, the news has been very grim.

I try not to listen to it on a daily basis.

And to make matters worse, the number of foreclosures is skyrocketing daily.

So that means, Americans will no longer be watching the news in the privacy of their own homes, they'll be listening to it in their cars.

Lest the repoman doesn't haul the vehicles away, while Americans sleep.

Do you find your electric toothbrush just to violently aggressive to use on a daily basis?

MISS MANNE

I mean you could practically buff the car with that thing.

Answer
we all know that the real problem is that you outfitted your stihl brand vibrator with a toothbrush to save on batteries... you cannot return it to the manufacturer and get a refund because you voided the warranty upon applying the duct tape...

the good news, however, is that it'll still make your chocolate milk quicker than you can manually stir it...

What kind of sentence will a 17 year old girl get for wreckless driving?

Sarah M

There were 5 people in the car, the driver (the 17 year old girl) was injured, and a 17 year old in the backseat was killed. Another teen was left with brain damage. What kind of sentence will she get? Will she be charged as an adult? What will happen to her?

Answer
Oh my Lord...

God be with the families of all involved.

What a tragedy. Teens just do not grasp the risks involved with operating a motor vehicle. It's something I have attempted to drill into my 16-year-old driving step son.

Aside for carrying that event for the rest of her life, which may be far worse than anything the system will throw at her, the legal penalties are going to be based on a great many factors...

What other laws were violated? For example, in some states, she had too many passengers for a 17-year old driver. You said reckless operation. Was speed the only factor? Those kinds of things.

Best case scenario (from her perspective)... involuntary vehicular manslaughter, 30-60 days in a juvenile institution, suspension of license and probation for a few years combined with hours and hours of community service, including a mandate to share the experience at schools with other teens. And probably about $500-$1000 in fines.

Worst case scenario - Reckless homicide, charged as adult, 10-years in prison, fines and court costs.

My links are JUST EXAMPLES and are meant for reference only and not to imply anything. Like I said, a great deal depends on all extenuating circumstances, the judge, and if she's tried as an adult. I do not know the details, where you are from, or your relationship to the parties involved.

How often do I text a girl I like (we are pretty close to dating) + conversation tips?

car news daily image

Bob J

This girl I'm about to date, I like her and she likes me. We text daily but we are running out of things to say, is it okay if I start switching to once every 2 or 3 days? And conversation tips please? Is it rude for me to text her a little and end it after a few texts?

Answer
If you are close to dating you should be texting every day and a good night one.

You need to understand that girls put a lot more emphasis on texting (phone calls and website comments) than guys do.
It's important to them.
Remember to always respond to a text and try to address everything she says.
No, it's not rude to end a text after a few, but make suer she understands it's your last one, don't let her wait for another one.
And don't do it abruptly, tell her you have somtehing you have to do.

Topics:
Think about what it is you want to now about her!
Some other topics:
Your day, her day
Funny stories
Likes, dislikes
Family, neighbours, pets
Mutual friends
Internet/websites you both like
Movies, television
Books
Music, concerts
Celebrities
Fashion
Sports
Hobbies, interests, gossip (girls love it)
And the news and weather, especially if it's extreme
Then there is "What's your favourite?":
Food
Animal
Game
Car
Movie
Song. . . . . . . . . . .

Why the Hong Kong enforcement personnel are so bad? Is it because of Hong Kong is a damned sin city?

Dye dirt K

It happened a few days ago that Hong Kong policemen were accused for the claimed sex services without paying the hookers or the pimps. To day's headlines (in Oriental Daily news, Chinese edition) accused the policemen of the Hong Kong motor vehicle branch extored cash from drivers by staging crashes by ramming the their car into the vehicle from the rear. They conned almost HK $ 26,000 by this conspiracy defraud. They had made 19 man-made accidents by crashing into12 taxis, one small van, and six sedans. These man-made accidents were begin in June 1, 2005 to February 2006. What a city of Hong Kong it is? They threatened the drivers for cash compensation and all of the victims paid the cashes for avoiding the troubles. I personal opinion that Hong Kong civil servants are soiled for extra high paying salaries, least work, highest pension fund in this world. The sinful Hong Kong chief executive raised his alredy overpaid salary by HK $ 430k per month, four times as Bill Clinton made.

Answer
Corruption is a problem that is hardly limited to Hong Kong. That's not to say that corruption in HK is anything less than troubling - it's just a recognition that it is an issue in many cities and many countries.
