I broke a mirror this morning while getting ready. I accidently dropped my hand mirror on the tile floor. It pretty much shattered. :( According to superstitions from many years ago, I am now facing 7 years of bad luck!?! Personally, I don't follow this kind of thinking, but I've heard of many people that do. For example, my aunt used to make this X mark across the windshield if she was driving down the road and a black cat ran across. I laughed and thought it was crazy, but just something she'd heard for years and wasn't taking any chances. :DDo you believe any old wise tales or superstitions like these? Why or why not? Where did the breaking a mirror superstition originate?

i do not belive in superstitions. i have brokin a good many mirrors and i dont have bad luck if thats the case i would have bad luck all my life.

Police say there had been an ongoing dispute over the errant football and a child's father called to report that Jester kept the ball after it landed in her yard.Blue Ash Police Capt. James Schaffer says police warned Jester twice and finally arrested her after she refused to accept a citation. She must appear in mayor's court next month.
Jester said Monday she didn't have time to discuss the incident, saying she has received many phone calls about it.

Abandoned baby found at Beijing's Bird Nest toilet.

Abandoned Baby found at Beijing's Bird Nest toilets
This article was on yahoo news this morning. It follows:A visitor to Beijing's National "Bird's Nest" Stadium was shocked to find a new-born baby abandoned in one of the venue's toilets, local media reported on Wednesday. The baby, later identified as a girl, was found by a woman around noon on Tuesday at the Bird's Nest, which is currently holding athletics events for the Paralympic Games, the Beijing Times said."The woman told venue staff that there was a newborn baby in the toilet, with blood still on its body," the paper said. Volunteers and staff searched for the mother for two hours to no avail, then sent the baby to a hospital. The baby was in good health and was feeding, the paper said, citing people with knowledge of the situation, but said the whereabouts of the mother remained unclear. Authorities were investigating, the paper said.
What are your thoughts on this article? Why do you think the mother did this? Write at least a 5 sentence paragraph expressing your thoughts.

i fill sorry for the baby and the mother. the mother was probably scared and didn't know what to do and taught if she put it in a public place that some one would find the baby and the baby would then be taken care of. the mother palpably did what she thought was best at that time. when your in that kind of state of mind you do it and then you probably don't do the wright thing. she was probably scared so she probably was not in the right state of mind to be making that decision.

Did you watch the MTV's Video Music Award Show on Sunday? What did you think about Brittney Spears performing? Who was your favorite performer? Do you watch it for the music or just to see what the artists are going to wear or say? If you didn't watch, why not?Actually, I didn't watch it, but have just noticed some mention of the award show on every news page on the web...and wonder if Brittney Spears really thinks she can have some kind of great comeback after the world just wondering if she's completely psycho -- shaving her head, drug overdose ER rants, improper care of her kids, etc. I honestly think she's a horrible role model and wonder what MTV is doing promoting her so.

i didnot watch the MTV Award because i did not know they were on but i would not have wached them anyway, causse i not in to that

I wouldn't normally share such personal and disgusting news *haha*, but last night I was up vomiting.

Planned?Please write a one paragraph (at least 5 sentences) response. Your response should not include specific people's names or contain graphic or vulgar wording.

Olympics 2008

What are your thoughts on the Olympics being held in China? Have you been watching the Olympics this week? What effects will the killing of American visitors to the Olympics by a Chinese man have on the U.S's relationship with China?

The Olympics are
held in a
different places every four years so it would be
held in China at some point
so
why not now. i have been watching
the
Olympics i watch them ever
4year
the
summer and winter
Olympics. The
killing of the American
visitor
may have
an
effect on the
relationship of the US and
China
but it may
not because
that was
just one man with a
wild
hair .why should we blame the Chinese for what one man did. If we're gonging to do that then we wouldn't have any relationships with any body.
