Are Fire-Safe Cigarettes Worse for you than Regular Cigarettes?

all questions / health questions  Posted by / 2 comments

Yeah, yeah, I know the saying..

“Cigarette, n.: A fire at one end, a fool at the other and a bit of tobacco in between”.

I’m all for fire safety, with the hundreds of americans that die every year in smoking-related fires. My question is just whether or not these FSC (slang for fire safe cigarettes in “the scene”), have any kinds of side-effects. I mean, the tobacco industry has been against fire-safe cigarettes because they thought users would taste the difference, it’d cost more, etc. etc. I’m probably delisional to think that maybe they’re nervous that there’s some sort of health safety hazard going on too? Probably not though, these are tobacco companies we’re talking about.

How do people get onto game shows?

So I was paying my bills yesterday, looking into my loads of debt from college, my car, and my credit cards, and I thought, what is the fastest way I could pay all of these off?

A few options came to mind:

1. Robbery – This option poses a few problems. First of all, I don’t like stealing from regular people. If I was going to live with myself afterward, my target would have to be a major corporation, or a bank. That means when if I’m caught I’ll be up against some serious attorney who’ll be hell bent on using his huge salary to put me behind bars until 2030.

How much will my tax rebate be?

all questions / politics and government  Posted by / 2 comments

Alright ladies and gents, the time has come. Uncle Sam, the old gangster, is a little scared. The “protection” money he’s been demanding has turned out to be a little too much. So much, in fact, that he’s giving some back to pay our debts to the town loan sharks so they don’t hang him out to dry. Don’t worry, though, the boss gave the go-ahead today and signed it into law.

So, who’s getting paid? The short answer is anyone making between $3,000 and $87,000 ($174,000 for two) who files a tax return. I think that means most of us.

Screw fondue – How to make an Asian Hot Pot??

all questions / food guide / how-to's  Posted by / 0 comments


So a few weeks ago I went to The Melting Pot. It was beyond tasty, and a fully satisfying dining experience. It was even worth the $95 bucks dropped for only two people. However, just watching them prepare the stuff (because they do it right infront of you), you know that you can do this at home.

What are some Bally Total Fitness reviews?

Consensus: Bally Total Fitness is a BUST

I was afraid this entry might look like an ad for Bally, but I’m kind of appalled at how far from it, this turned out to be.

So I’ve been looking around at gyms, but the only ones close to me are Curves and Bally. My mom went to Curves for a few months and lost some weight, but it was after she left Curves and started taking classes as a gym near her house that she dropped like 100lbs.
