| I remember watching something where people were talking about this, and there was some woman who set up her own business and wanting to be a real life Barbie, who felt what we see on in the movies or whatever isn't a distorting process and even went on to say that ''At the end of the day, you don't ... |

| I don't know if historically we as human beings were used to in the past, used to being told what to do by one person or one group of people in charge going back as far back as the Pharoahs of Ancient Egypt or maybe even earlier. I don't know if its still prevalent in some cultures in parts of the w... |

| It surprises me that people are calling for national service to be reintroduced even though it was abandoned in the 50s or 60s during the cold war and no need for it during the rest of that period in the 70s and 80s. It's just the Tories hoping to appear to gammons who think the draft is a good ide... |

| Life is not a competition. Never forget that. Milestones do not tell you where you are. All they tell you is how far away the next place is. How come then do we see in shops, balloons and cards with 18, 21, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and so on ? If those are not also milestones then I don't know what is. |

| We all know the Nazis and the Japanese were brought to justice for war crimes and crimes against humanity after the second world war but few from the Allied side (Brits, Americans, Soviets and others) faced justice for any wrong-doings except a few court martials. I personally think all sides should... |

Obviously I do understand for example a 60 year old probably can't become a boxer because of the age but I mean it's in the music industry, film industry etc surely they shoul... |
