Renowned author John Hodges, the guy who does occasional bits on the daily show did an extensive imaginary history of well known hobos in American history in that book he wrote some time back. I know you used the word tramp but I find the word hobo to be more amusing for me.

This is just a theory but I think the best way to become famous as a hobo is to have some sort of hobo skill-such as playing a saw, or the spoons-then it’s "location, location, location"…you can’t be a famous hobo unless you’re in a place like Times Square.

As far as attracting a female hobo-again this is just a theory-but I think a blanket and food would be a good start.

Do all Marshall's work for the federal Goverment ?


It depends on what type you are talking about. US Marshals, Air Marshals, are employed By the feds, but many counties, cities and towns may have Marshals appointed at that level and do not work for the feds.

Just like there are police officers who work for a city, county, state, federal government and even private entities, such as universities and hospitals.

Help am I in trouble?! It was only a joke!?
So I was watching the sprouts go on their little adventure and then I noticed on our home video set that Kimmy and Dill were not in the good memory video so… I put them in a box and threw it into the ocean. Chaz is thretening to sue me and Stu wants me to go get fitted in a strap jacket… These youngins these days just can’t appreciate important deeds. I’m hoping this is a just a little game so I can freeload off my son because the people at the retirment home have a fetish for checkers and tapioca. I set up a lawn chair outside Stu’s house and now watch his family continue to progress until he forgives me… but will he forgive me? I noticed Chaz is sharpening an axe and has a coffin on his lawn that says "lou" so… WHAT IN TARNATION DO I DO?!

"No Country For Old Men"–a Coen Brothers production,starring Tommy Lee Jones,adapted from a Cormac Macarthy novel..drugs and money with a hitman with a special weapon.Brilliant.
"There Will Be Blood"–Daniel Day-Lewis as hardman,who virtually creates the blueprint for oil monopoly early in the 1900s capitalist US..no mercy.. for anyone. Johnny Greenwood from Radiohead does the soundtrack.Again,Brilliant.

Considering your selection–you must see these–"Snatch",Brad Pitt as Irish gypsy bare-knuckle fighter,directed by Guy Ritchie ("Trainspotting").Heavy.Apparently 3 pigs can consume a human torso in a few hours.
"Dead Man’s Shoes"..a brother’s revenge visited upon a sadistic crew of drug dealers…Who would have thought so much acid,speed and ecstasy dispensed in their tea could do that to them? That’s just the beginning for them.

Do you think if there was a prophet today, to lead and guide us; there wouldn't be so much puzzlement?
Do you think if there was a prophet today, to lead and guide us; there wouldn’t be so much puzzlement about what religion is true and "no, this passage means this and that" because in the bible times they had prophets to lead and guide them. i also read in Ephesians that Jesus Christs’ church must have prophets and apostles to…. run His church i guess ya could say

Eph. 2: 19-20
19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone.
And: 1.
Eph. 4: 11-14
11 And he agave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

and also the only thing Satan doesn’t have one bit of power over; is the priesthood. so when the last apostle died; there went the last person with authority to give the priesthood. so…. when you don’t have the priesthood; that leaves your religion subject to the power of Satan. and you even. and that’s where all the other sects of religion come into hand………….they don’t have a Prophet, or the priesthood to keep them from being subject to Satan’s tactics. that’s what i discovered

and also the lord says He’s the same yesterday, today and forever. if that’s true then, where is our prophets. why is there so many sects of religion? why isn’t it the same as the prophets of old. to lead and guide us in a dispensation. wouldn’t it take revelation to know if there was no more revelation? the lord wouldn’t just cut us off like that. where is the lord to keep us updated on His works?
i haven’t singled out any other religion on my research. there’s only one big successful religion out there that fits the criteria of Christ’s true church: the LDS church.
Good riddance.


Actually (as others have correctly stated) a true prophet will only decrease puzzlement among those who correctly identify him as a true prophet. A person that hears the truth but doesn’t believe it will gain no benefit.

Fortunately, God will answer the prayers of humble seekers as to where His truth may be found. If God has called a prophet today, then God will lead honest seekers to that prophet. I am thankful for the spiritual witness I have received that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God, called to restore priesthood authority, precious truths, and Christ’s church to earth. Today, the true prophet is Thomas S. Monson. I have felt the same spiritual witness as to his prophetic calling as I received with respect to Joseph Smith.

This knowledge is available to all. Read the Book of Mormon with a searching, honest heart. Then ask God if it is true and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet. If you ask in faith, humility, and sincerity, God will answer you by the power of the Holy Ghost.

"puzzlement" is not a word. But there would be more "puzzlement" if there was a prophet, since there would be argument over whether or not the prophet was real.

What's Up Doc? | Jan 11, 2010


The True Prophets of the days before Christ were directly instructed by God…. and even those could not compel others to follow them…. and the vast majority did not… not even the big ones like Mosses and Isaiah… and there is no need for prophets such as those… as The Word is complete… no more is to be added to it… thus no more Prophets as in old….
Shalom Y'all I'm BACK | Jan 11, 2010


Think about it…God sent prophets and many would NOT listen…they were even killed…Sooooo God sent His Son Jesus…what happen??? He too was put to death…People are for themselves…they do not want their sins revealed…they want to live their lives in darkness…God came to this planet as a man…and still they would not listen…what makes you think they will listen today…they won’t.

no we do not need a prophet.
we have the word of god and the holy spirit to guide and lead us.

the people who had prophets did not have the word of gd but had just parts of it.

satan does not have power over the church because of no priest
the holy spirit of god keeps satan out of the church and the holy spirit tells people the truth

the problem we have now is people do not have the holy spirit and make up their own teachings or believe lies. god said this would happen

1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

the holy spirit tells us the truth
1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

the people in the old testament did not have the holy spirit living in them as we do today as christians. no the LDS is not the one true church.

the true church is every believer who has called on jesus to save them and believe jesus rose from the dead, not a religion. romans 10:9-10
God's servant | Jan 11, 2010


Well I believe there is a TRUE prophet. And his name is Thomas S. Monson. But that’s just me and my beliefs and I don’t look down on anyone who doesn’t happen to have my same beliefs. But it’s not cool how people make up rumors about us. (btw I’m LDS or Mormon)

what are your personal stories of meeting your S.O online?
hello,
not a troll question, don’t worry. have seen many tonight:P and i know stigma is attached to online romance so no negative comments please…

well, i met someone online a few months ago and we are committed to each other as if we were really together. i have no problem with this and don’t intend on cheating. we are going to meet.
but i was wondering what is defined as cheating in such a context. i mean, clearly many elements to the relationship are lacking. you haven’t even met yet. the reason why i ask this is because him and i got into a serious fight and he dumped me, or so it seemed, or got angry and gave me silent treatment, can’t really tell seeing as we’re not together! for a couple of weeks we were ”off”, then came back and in the mean time i chatted with 2 or 3 other guys on an non sexual site. he was still in my heart and i wanted him but out of anger i tried to move on. now i feel like i cheated.
what are your personal stories of how you connected with the person you met online, how long did it take you to meet, were they the same in person, and while you didn’t meet, have you gone with anyone else in reality (although you committed yourself to the person online- or not). i am a loyal girlfriend. it’s just the whole long distance and haven;t met yet dynamic is confusing my ideas of what i did was cheating and if we were together, would it be considered as such. thanks…


Here’s how me and my boyfriend met..

Well, my ex boyfriend and I had broken up a week or two before, and I realized that I was NOT going back to this loser. He was trying VERY hard to convince me to get back with him, but after being treated so bad and being cheated on, I was done. He had this friend, and while I was on AIM he was talkin to his friend on AIM also. He was telling his friend the story, and I asked him if he told him about the part where he hit me and cheated on me? and he was like "No." I then said "Fine, I will tell him since you won’t. What’s his SN?" I was not going to have him making me look like a fool. He then told me he would get his friend to IM me.

A few seconds later, I get an IM and I told him my side of the story. This was the day before Christmas Eve in ‘08. After telling him my side of the story, he told me how sorry he was and that if I needed somene to talk to or just wanted someone to listen, he would be there. I felt like I had met a new friend, and it was pretty cool. The next day was Christmas Eve. When I signed on AIM he sent me an IM telling me Merry Christmas Eve! and we just began talking again. Well, after talking for an extended period of time, it was quite obvious that we had a lot in common, and that we were starting to develop feelings for each other.

The next week, he admits to me how he feels, and I tell him how I felt. The end of the month (Jan 31st) We met in person, and it became official. We got together. We have been together ever since and I couldn’t be any happier. He treats me like a princess and is the best boyfriend. My family and friends adore him. of course, he dislikes my ex too. I would not have gotten with him if they were close, but him and my ex were just aquaintances.

So, that’s my story. Kind of ironic, but we are both extremely happy and make it work. We are seperated until next month, he is in the Air Force so he in Tech School. I stayed faithful even before we were official.

Best of luck! :)
The Artist In The Ambulance. | Feb 07, 2010


I’ve had online friends, but never a romance. But why make a commitment to anyone that you haven’t actually met in the physical sense. It shows desperation from the both of you. I’m not discrediting your online emotional connection, but slow down and meet the person for real before worrying if you done any cheating.
You may not want anything to do with the person when you meet them, who knows. Could be some 60 year old pervert or some 9 year old jerking your chain.

From the time that my husband contacted me the first time to our first meeting was 2 or 3 weeks. I wasn’t about to spend a lot of time and emotional energy in a cyber relationship.

Plot: Jimmy Rabbitte, che vive di piccoli espedienti in un quartiere proletario di Dublino, si e’ messo in testa di organizzare una band musicale per rinverdire i fasti del rythm&blues e del soul. Grazie ad un annuncio sul giornale, Rabbitte comincia a selezionare giovani dal lavoro precario ma pieni di talento: Dean, Fay, Outspan, l’occhialuto Steven , Clifford, Deco, il ciccione senza buone maniere ma con una grande voce, Billy il batterista e Joey “The lips”, un bizzarro e maturo anziano suonatore di tromba che si vanta di aver suonato con famosi soul-singers. Aggrega anche Natalie, Imelda e Bernie, tre grintose ragazze, ottime coriste e molto sexy. Procuratisi a credito la strumentazione, cominciano le prove, massacranti, che impegnano tutti. Si inizia a suonare in pubblico, in capannoni e feste sociali: il gruppo sembra pervaso dal fuoco della musica e dell’ambizione. La band, pur se dilettantesca e provinciale, sembra lanciata verso il vertice e finisce invece nel fallimento: dissapori, piccole gelosie e contrasti umani ed artistici, sfaldano il gruppo. Il sogno di Jimmy evapora nel nulla e quel grande patrimonio di energia e bravura che poteva fruttare quattrini e successo siPL: disperde nel nulla.

What about adding a second dog?
I like the idea of a second dog. However, Im thinking that Im not sure as I would like to get a foster dog to start with, I like the idea of ‘trying out’ having a second dog without the longer term commitment but more so the fact that I ave the time to spend with a new dog, socialising etc and hopefully helping them get their ’special’ home that without a foster home they may not get. Have you done this before? How was it? Would you do it again? What do you think of this?


We had a foster pom (and we have a pom of our own). It it good to have another dog around so that your dog always has someone to play with. I would suggest, if possible, fostering a dog with like energy and similar size as the dog you have. The worst thing is letting the other dog go and not having any say in the people who adopt the dog.
Erika *mom to one fabulous pom* | Feb 05, 2010


I would get another dog because it would keep your other dog company whe no one is in the house and you would give a dog from the pound a new and better life instead of living in a cage. you could change a dogs life.

Which University of California campus do you think I can get accepted into based on my GPA?
Which University of California campus do you think I can get accepted into based on my GPA?
Here are my grades:

World Literature- A
French- C
Algebra 2- A+
Drawing- A
Economics- A
Chemistry- A

They are all regular classes BTW.
My SAT score is 910, I know, it sucks.
The reason is because I didn’t study for the SAT, and took it "for fun", and didn’t sleep at all the night before.
I have volunteered AND worked for non-profit organizations.
I also joined a club in my school.

Here are my top choices for schools:
UCLA
UCI
UCSB
UCSD
UCD
UCB (I know, I don’t think I’ll make it there!)
UCR

please tell me which school (UC system) might accept me?
I regret not taking the SAT seriously.
:(

I have a 3.6 GPA.

I am a high school senior, I never applied for any UCs, but based on the information I gave you, which school(s) might accept me?

I plan on going to a community college, but I’m just asking anyways.

I am planning to go to PCC, and major in Economics and minor in Political Science, what is a GOOD GPA for me to earn at PCC for me to transfer to one of the more prestigious UCs? Entering as a freshman, what are my chances?
Please answer ALL my questions to the best of your ability, thanks!


Did you dislike your French teacher?

Go to JC and get the grades you’ve been getting, except maybe try Spanish ;) . The CAP program is a great 2nd chance, but it is all on you. Do not be tempted to slack by all the other students and your friends – none of them will go to UCB unless they knuckle up too. I went into UCB straight-away, but see now that JC would have been the more academically and economically sound way to go, if I had discipline. Get the discipline or else.

Still, do not stress about your undergrad school’s name. DO stress about your undergrad GPA. Keep it above 3.6 at the VERY least and plan on grad school.

You have a pretty solid GPA. The C won’t look too good to highly-selective UCs like UCLA and UC Berkeley though.

Is your SAT score out of 2400? If so, then you should really consider retaking it because the average SAT score is 1500 (500 for each section).
Edit: nevermind, I read you plan on attending a community college, so it’s ok.

It’s hard to say which schools you would have a good shot at because they’re becoming pretty competitive these days. Probably UCR and UCD, *maybe* UCSB.

So, since you’re going to PCC (Pasadena City College I presume), you should aim for a 3.7 or 3.8 if you want to get into UCLA or another prestigious university. If you do the honors program at a community college, a lot of UCs have transfer agreements, so you should definitely look into that. UCLA doesn’t have guaranteed transfer agreements, but they do have "priority consideration" if you do the honors program. With UC Berkeley, you just have to apply like everyone else–no transfer agreement, no priority consideration, etc.

Entering as a freshman, it’s MUCH more competitive than applying as a junior.

If you have any more questions, your counselor at PCC will definitely help you out with everything.
