Death

I'm against the death penalty under any circumstances and, I've had vigorous discussions abaout the issue. "why should we pay for the lodgings of someone who has done something so evil?" People who kill are a conundrum for our society. Why do they do it? Was it the result of foulty socialisation? Will they do it again? Do they have a conscience? If we want to keep the argument simple, there is a very good reason to keep them alive....

Be Better

Now's not the time to up the ante in the realm of romance. Hold your cards close and keep a straight face, no matter what's in your hand (or how funny, or ridiculous, or hot you think the game is getting).
Sometimes other people seem hopelessly small-minded, probably because your own thoughts are so large-scale and wide-ranging. Now's one of those times. Someone's got to meet you more than halfway to stand a chance.
Be an explorer when it comes to love. No, not the kind intent on conquering -- the kind learning new languages, seeing new places, investigating nuances, finding out what makes people tick.
Rather than starting an argument, ask some open-ended questions. Rather than making an assumption, delve and find out more. Rather than being stubborn, try on several different points of view. Watch out for letting your words write a check your actions aren't going to cash! Flattery's fine, flirtation -- great, but teasing is just unfair at a certain point. Know when to cut it out.
