Can a politician be honest? Would you vote for them?

jeffaim @jeffaim (215) • United States 7 Dec 06

It seems that in the United States it is impossible for a politician to be honest and get elected or stay in office. If a politician admits that issues are complex or that there are two sides to be considered, many people will...

Pet peeves about your spouse?

jeffaim @jeffaim (215) • United States 10 Jan 07

My wife hates it when I snore and it wakes her up or keeps her from getting to sleep. I'm sure that there are a bunch of other things too. I don't like the way that she leaves the laundry lying around when it's clean, so I'm...

jeffaim That's a good one - you often hear about boys/men leaving the seat up, but leaving the lid down is more unusual...not something you think would cause a problem (like falling in with the seat up), until you run into the situation you did! Thanks!

jeffaim I'm not a religious expert, but I will try to answer your questions. 1) Jesus was the son of God, basically created to carry his spirit in human form. Christianity came out of Judaism, and most Jews believe that Jesus existed, but was not the son of God,...

Host a party for your teenagers, get fined 2500 dollars. It this right or wrong?

hassanchop @hassanchop (820) • United States 10 Jan 07

This is a law that has been enacted here in the San Diego area. I'm not sure if any other areas have laws like this, but if you are a parent and you host a party for your son/daughter and his friends, with alcohol included...

jeffaim While what you say makes sense and is very realistic in today's society (or that of 20 years ago, to be quite frank), it also assumes that the hosting parents are responsible ones such as yourselves who will take the keys and encourage sleeping over. In my...

jeffaim the court can enforce child support if the name is on the birth certificate. however, if he does not believe that the child is his, once a ruling is made that he must pay support he can request/require a paternity test to prove that he is or is not the...

Why do most people search for special occasions-birth day,anniversaries,festivals etc. to remember other people or relationship?

jeffaim It would be nice if this was something that we did daily, and gave everyone that we cared about the attention and appreciation that they deserve. However, in daily life, it is easy to get sidetracked by taking care of our own needs, wants and desires, and...

jeffaim Lots of times you can find a part time job on your college campus. When I was in college, the best paying jobs were those that people wanted to do the least. That meant working in the dining halls and modeling nude for the art classes. Since you get more...

Tom Cruise's best movie so far...

cooldrdate @cooldrdate (323) • United States 10 Nov 06

What do you think is Tom Cruise's best movie so far? He's acted in quite a few interesting ones.... Top Gun, Born on the Fourth of July, The color of money, Interview with the Vampire, Cocktail, Eyes Wide Shut, The Last Samurai,...

jeffaim I really liked his performance and role in The Color of Money - he was young enough not to have become his own franchise, and it fit his character and teaming with Paul Newman very well. Of his more recent work, I've enjoyed Eyes Wide Shut and his role in...

jeffaim I like Small Change the best - it's early enough that it's got some of the straight ahead and some of the experimental - a bit more sentimental than Rain Dogs or Swordfishtrombones, which I also really liked.

Who is winning the console war?

dearie418 @dearie418 (15) • United States 21 Nov 06

Xbox 360 vs. Playstation 3 vs. Nintendo Wii--who's gonna come out on top?

jeffaim I think that nintendo will come out winning the war here - at least in terms of profits. Xbox and PS3 have been competing to see who can sell the most consoles, and have been adding so many bells and whistles (functions) to their consoles that the cost to...

Where can I find good deals on Hotels???

meeshee1 @meeshee1 (188) • United States 29 Dec 06

I have looked at hotwire, expedia, hotels.com, and Orbitz but I am not that impressed with their hotel rates. Anyone know of any other good website where I can find low prices on decent hotels?? Thanks! :)

4 responses

jeffaim A couple that i've found useful are tripadvisor.com, with dated and detailed reviews of each of the hotels by users/visitors PLUS a search engine to find rooms at 5-7 different websites so you can easily comparison shop. There's also kayak.com, which is not a...

What's your favorite anime so far?

craving4more @craving4more (332) • Philippines 12 Dec 06

Dragon Ball Z started it all. It was the anime that's gotten me hooked to those silly looking characters, catchy one-liners, faulty characters,and those not-so-ordinary storylines. Now, I can add Bleach, One Piece, Naruto to that...

jeffaim i've never really been a huge anime fan, but there is one that i saw about ten years ago that really blew me away - i think that it was called "Vampire Hunter D" - for some reason, many of the newer ones don't grab my interest.
