Is it acceptable for men to cry in front of the others? If so, when is it ok?

When a little girl cries she receives support, comfort, understanding and sympathy.
When a little boy cries he receives punishment.

I have always wondered because my husband has said some really mean things when drunk. He has told me he didnt think his son was his, told me he wanted me to leave, told me he wanted to be with someone new instead of me, and that alcohol was more important and he knew it would cause our marriage to end. When i asked him if he cared he said at the moment being drunk no. There has been many other things he has said and done. While i dont make excuses for him this is not an every week occurance and i have felt those types of things at certain moments and voiced them as well. It was the truth at the moment but wasnt how I really felt after I calmed down. I think drunk people are the same.

I miss 5 relatives: Boots, a cat who died of lekemia. Lillie Hagan and Robert William, who died of age. Issie, a cat who died because of a brain tumer. Last, Michelle Hagan is a cousin of mine whos heart stopped while she was sleeping. Tell me how I can go against this crisis, to just grab life by the lips and yank as hard as I can. Tell me how to sooth and massage this ache in my life.

I made an iPad app for browsing photos from any website – http://www.steamclocksw.com/prism/. It works great for photos of kittens, comics, landscapes, photography, and so on. Will people use it for anything other than porn?

Two reasons:
a) it’s hard to make a round box
b) it’s hard to make a square pizza

Part of the pizza making process is to stretch the dough. That’s why you get the guys throwing pizza in the air once-in-awhile. The result of this throwing/spinning is to create a round pizza.

I understand steel is ductile because it’s layers can slide past each other. So why is nylon ductile?

It has been a long time since you had a question!

I am watching the old version of Cheaper by the Dozen, made in 1950. It is set in the US (they are moving to New Jersey) and the Dad is driving a car with the steering wheel on the right. I believe he’s driving on the right side of the road, too, but it’s hard to tell.

When did the wheels switch to the left in North America, and why did the switch? Also, I think that it must have caused problems if things didn’t switch over all at once everywhere, and I have a hard time imaging that things were so quick and smooth!

Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

One day I turned into a crow. I was at a park and I was drinking and smoking weed when suddenly a friend and I heard a pack of crows cawing then suddenly I started feeling convulsions in my throat and began to caw and flap my ‘wings’. I didn’t turn into a crow literally but you get what I mean. I stopped cawing then my head was stuck to the left and I could not face forward or turn to the right as much as a tried. I got my friend to take me to the hospital and then it suddenly stopped! Do you think it is spiritual or should I take it realistically?
