Favre traded...will Rogers succeed in Green Bay?

kbjunior15 @kbjunior15 (1309) • United States 6 Aug 08

Tough question to answer. No one knows what he can do yet. Favre put him in a bad situation, though. Now every bad thing he does will have Packer fans complaining that they should have kept Favre...especially if Favre succeeds...

Gorcon I'm so happy this stupid drama is over. I just feel really sad for the Packers fans who became divided because of this. Favre shouldn't have been so selfish and kept the franchise hostage and ultimately the QB position in limbo. He should have retired with...

Should purchasing school essays online be made illegal?

Uroborus @Uroborus (908) • Canada 31 Jul 08

There are an increasing number of websites that allow writers to sell essays online and students to buy them. This is obviously allowing students to cheat in school. Although this may be against school rules, it is strictly not...

Gorcon They already offer them for free online. And ultimately it's up to the individual and after the same paper's been circulated so many times, they professors/teachers will finally figure it out. Also, they're just cheating themselves by using someone else's...

Do you listen to music when you're studying/doing some paperwork?

phatelara @phatelara (243) • Malaysia 30 Jul 08

I love listening to music so much that I even listen to it when I'm studying or doing my homework. I can focus more when I listen to music than when it's too quiet around me. Music keeps me awake and energised. However, I have...

Gorcon I definitely listen to music while studying and doing paperwork, it actually inspires me, I might here a really good line from a song and be like "oh that's a good idea!" and like you said keeps me energized and awake when studying something really boring.

Gorcon You should always buy albums to make up for it. Especially the artists you really feel deserve it. Artists get money through concerts, endorsements, sponsoring, etc. So they still make their money, but as I said before you should purchase the artists' albums...

a cell phone with mp3 player or iPod or a costly mp3 players..what are the advantages and disadvantages ?

3 responses

Gorcon It all depends on how you intend to use the mp3. Are you a heavy-mp3/music listener? If yes, then buy an mp3 player, you don't necessarily need to get an iPod, there are much less expensive mp3 players out there (and even better than iPods). If you're...

Gorcon I suggest looking at the Dells on Bestbuy.com, they have good deals. I think any popular brand is good as long as you're happy with the size of the harddrive (I prefer 120-250 GB) and enough memory (2 GB is good), and a good processor (Intel Dual Core) and...

Gorcon This is extremely interesting, are there any copies of the Gospel of Barnabas (in English)? I would like to certainly hear the Christian point of view on this issue as most Christians believe it to be unauthentic.
