  1. Hi and welcome to Xisto. I hope you will get hosting as soon as possible; but as a reminder, in Xisto, we always make long, quality posts. One liners are not allowed. :blink: Have fun in Greece, too; I've always wanted to go there but never really went. 5'3" is kind of short because I am almost a whole foot taller than you. But hey, who said height really matters? Have fun posting.


  2. I would have to disagree with you. I would like to start of by saying that I graduated from a private school myself. You also have to keep in mind that life isn't fair and that if you have more money, you simply do get more advantages. In private schools, you usually just join the athletic teams immediately because they don't have enough people (and the fact that they payed to get into the school).

     

    I would also like to argue with someone that says, "Private schools are just for stuck-up rich kids". Trust me, some kids aren't all that "rich". Some of them are actually in the middle class and their parents work very hard for them to get into a private school. Getting rid of private schools won't just solve the problem for "unfairness". If someone is richer than you, they have a bigger houses, cars, etc; it's a fact which nobody can argue with.

     

    When I went to a private school, I was already ahead of almost everybody else in a public school. When I took the SAT it proved that just proved I was ahead (almost scoring a perfect score). And so I would like to ask you a question -- why would you want to get rid of private schools? Just so everybody could be equal? Wouldn't that be a slightly leaned on the "communist" side?


  3. Wow. No offense, but this sounds kind of like Cinderella (sorry, I had to mention that). And, uh...why are you living in a BASEMENT?!?!! Well, you should try to get it fixed. Talk with your parents, etc. Password your computer for your own protection. There are a lot of things you can do to prevent him from logging into your computer. Seriously, like haslip had said, turn off the circuit, and you can remove anything. :lol: Good luck!


  4. I know exactly what you mean. But like how some people stated previously, you should shave, and look your best, that should will boost your confidence. I've tried it and it really helps. Also, you don't really have to exactly ask...you can turn it around say somthing like this, "Hey, I was just asking if you wanted to go out for dinner/lunch etc." I mean, you can say it in a thousand ways; just don't sweat and stutter. That would be the worse thing to ever do when asking someone out.


  5. I would like to state that being obese, unfortunately, is not a choice. Some people have great, strong, and healthy metabolism that help them digest food easily and quickly, even if they eat a lot. Some people, even though barely eating, have a weaker metabolism that makes them "obese" and the fatty layer to pile up.

     

    But in the United State's case, obesity was mostly not caused by a weak metabolism. It is mostly caused by the paramount power of Mc*Donald, Bur*ger King, K*FC, etc. The obesity can also be blamed on pizza and easy transportation. But even though you blame these fastfood chain restaurants, it is still America's fault. The people were the ones who chose to eat at these unhealthy places -- so in this case, being obese is a disability.


  6. Hi! I was formerly known as NovaTerra; I had a name change, so I just wanted to post a new introduction so you guys will know I am NovaTerra and not some new person. :) Since you know I am NovaTerra you might want to know a little about me.My name is Nick Bryant. Many people say I have 2 first names. I am a male living in California and love soccer, singing, writing music, etc. I am 22 years old and am in college right now, majoring in medicine. I am tall and like coffee (yes, I do). I am currently trying to get a lot of posts so I can get enough credits to open a new hosting account that can last for a long time. Well, if you have any questions, you can ask me.


  7. Wow! That looks pretty good. It looks good enough to be the new business icon for Microsoft or something. Did you use photoshop? You can make a business and name it globamart (or something like that) and make that as your logo. :) That'll be pretty cool because it's nice and professional.


  8. Well, when I was in high school (which was a long time ago), things were pretty organized. Maybe it was because I went to a private high school; I barely experienced drugs or alcohol. Of course, there was the occasional few who were the potheads and the drunks but not much. Fights weren't huge in my school. On the other hand, racism was huge because the majority of my school was caucasian. But I get where you're coming from. A lot of schools have been corrupted unfortunately, but I was lucky not experience a lot of that.


  9. I would think not -- by opening this up, people will think that being "gay" and "bisexual" is actually normal. In fact, when you're young...say 11 and you know nothing about attractiveness in the other sex, you might think of yourself as a "gay or lesbian". This will not free the mind, but restrict it to think that it is way too normal and that they themselves are one, too. Then a chain reaction starts. I consider myself an open-minded person and I do not hatefully discriminate against them. But if you openly have a different orientation and actually take a stand to legalize gay marriage, it will affect the minds of the little ones (not saying this is negative) and they will think they themselves are gay while in fact, they aren't because they haven't hit puberty yet.I think the world should open our minds by education us about this and that you will only start liking the other sex (or the same in some cases) after puberty. This should be taught positively.


  10. I will try to explain why I, myself, think Christianity is actually the true religion and how it is true. This is not another "you've got to believe this because you have to have faith". These are actual reasons why God AND Jesus is real.First of all, how did we find out about history. In example, Roman history was mostly discovered because of old documents and architecture that has preserved itself throughout the 2,000 or more years. The documents were written during the time that something has really happened; so that is proof that Roman history is true.If this is how we base our history, why won't the Bible be true? It was written during old times which has been confirmed. It was actually written by many people -- not just one person; I don't think so many people would actually make this up. There were even eyewitnesses which was written within living memory of the historical document. You might now think to yourself, well, maybe these were a group of people that wanted to cause chaos and just randomly make up some information about God. Well, this is not true. There were actually outside sources, too. Josephus wrote an article about Jesus during Jesus' time. He, while writing, actually doubted that Jesus was really the "Son of God". This, itself, proves that the Bible's facts are real and authentic -- none of it were lies. Also, there were ancient architecture of history that is still preserved during Jesus' and God's time. Broken fragments of objects that have proved that the Bible is real. Why do you people still question the existance of God? If you are questioning the existance of God, you should be asking yourself, if you think Roman history is real, then the Bible is real due to the reasons I have listed above. Going back to Atheists. These are people who can not accept the fact that they are truely "reigned" over by a superior power (God). They will think that none of this is true and that all of it is rubbish. They believe Roman history, why not the Bible? It's the same thing except it teaches you to do good. It's even better than Roman history, it's even teaching you. I would love to see opinions on this -- and what are the evidence that God is not real? I really want to see that upclose because I have never heard absolutely any evidence that God is not real and would love to inspect this matter.


  11. Yes, you've got that right! He's got a "different and honest" opinions and doesn't care how he expresses himself (Not exactly a bad thing). But...no not evil...not yet; we will have to wait and see on that one. We really don't know yet. Thank you SM for reading this post I know you are :) . He's probably bluffing about most of the stuff...or not? Don't know...but I don't think so.


  12. Drugs should not be legalized due to several reasons although your reason of legalizing drugs don't even make any sense. You legalize drug so people will stop smuggling illegal drugs into our country? Well, there is a reason drugs are illegal; it is because it is hazardous to your health and not only does it harm you, it harms other innocent civilians. How? Well, what happens when you're high? If we legalize drugs, drug smuggling would not be a problem, the citizens will be uncontrollable.

     

    So, no, drugs will not be legalized due to health and the control of the citizens of a country. With the legalization of drugs, it will be ubiquitous around the country and I'm sure there will be many murders due to people "getting high".


  13. I'm from Yorba Linda, California, United States. I love this place even though my job requires me to travel everywhere around the country and worldwide. :) I love the diversity in Yorba LInda and all the economic problems that Yorba Linda has advanced forward has fascinated me. But, even though Yorba Linda is a great place, I want to live in Newport Beach because I was raised there and it really flashes memories back at me.


  14. -Baseball hats worn backwards.

    Come on, I do that all the time. What's wrong with that?

     

    Well, here are my pet peeves:

    The Fast Food Microphones...when it cracles all the time and you can't even tell if he's speaking Spanish or French

    People who use Myspace but have no clue what HTML is

    A sales person who usually picks on kids...but when an adult does what the kid is doing, he ignores the adult

    People who can't type, but use AIM/MSN/YAHOO MESSENGER

    People who can't write music, but tries to make their own with a music editor

    People who aren't good at the computer...but use it all time (like...you know how people can barely control the mouse and they're like...hm...CLICK

    People who think "GANGSTAS" are cool and try to act like one

    WIGGERS--MOST ANNOYING

    People smoking in front of me

    People on a skateboard inside a MALL???

    Well, thats all for now...all I can think of...but I'll come up with some later. :D

  15. KINGSTON, Jamaica - Tropical Storm Ernesto gathered strength as it steamed through the central Caribbean toward Jamaica on Saturday and threatened to enter the Gulf of Mexico as the first hurricane of the 2006 Atlantic season.

    Well, I would like to say, I visit Houston a lot. I mean...a lot, a lot since I have a "tiny" home there.And n Houston...we are hit by hurricanes all the time. You know what? I'm sick of this. I'm sick of evacuating from my HOME and leaving my dog behind. :D

     

    I'm sick of getting stuck in traffic that takes 3 hours for you to go somewhere that usually takes 3 minutes...I hate it when everybody breaks every law violation and runs like crazy. I'm sick of this -- I hate to see the highway leading towards Houston closed so there will be more lanes for evacuees. I can't take it anymore. I love Houston...I love my home...

     

    Let me give you a little insight of evacuation...Imagine...emergency lanes are open...the other side of the highway that is parallel to where you are going is open so there will be more lanes for the heavy traffic. You have no clue where you are going...and everybody is scared. Suburbans become overcrowded with millions of cars, and gas stations are filled and you have to stay in a line for over a couple of HOURS. Gas is out...your car is almost out of gas. You have to go somewhere.

     

    So, what's your insight on this? Discuss.

     

    New Edit:

    It now says that Ernesto is now a hurricane and not a tropical storm anymore.
