    Do you want to move to the United States and why?
    How do you see civilization progressing or regressing in the next 100 years?

    Michael, I'm curious about UK politics. Is there a center-right party there, comparable to center-right Republicans in the U.S.?

    We hold some of your historical people in high regard here, such as Thatcher and Churchill.

    Not sure if I'd want to move, but it's a cool country.
    I can only see progress, in terms of technology, rights, prosperity etc.

    Yes, The Conservative Party in Britain. Then in Northern Ireland, there's the Ulster Unionist Party and Democratic Unionist Party.
    And good to know - Thatcher is linked to Reagan while Churchill would be linked to Roosevelt. Although you may be surprised to know that Thatcher isn't really liked in Britain (harsh economic policies, hardline stance against the unions, poll tax etc) and especially not liked by nationalists (predictably for her hardline stance on maintaining the union between NI and the UK) and even unionists (signing of the Anglo-Irish Agreement with Dublin was viewed back in the 1980s as a step towards a united Ireland).

    Churchill on the other hand is revered in Britain and in NI by unionists. I'm not sure about nationalists, but I'm sure even they recognise the excellent role he played in leading Britain to victory in WW2.

    Ties between the two nations will always be strong due to our shared heritage.

    Those bonds grew even stronger after 9-11. We were very appreciative of the UK's support after we were attacked. President Bush was right, "We have no greater friend than Great Britain."

    What about economic views? Do you prefer a capitalistic environment where the more you work the more you get?

    Mixed. Essentially though, capitalist.

    Yes, I do a lot of reading for politics. Can't really say what the most interesting book I've read is, but anything to do with politics already interests me before I even start reading it.

    Sure, if I could get elected within the party as a candidate for local, regional or national government. I am already a member of a political party and I hold a few positions in it.

    Where does the toetag go on a dead person if they don't have toes?
    Do dentists go to other dentists or do they just do it themselves?
    Why doesn't McDonald's sell hotdogs?
    Can you daydream at night?
    Why does grape flavor smell the way it is when actual grapes don't taste or smell anything like it?
    If a kid refuses to sleep during nap time, are they guilty of resisting a rest?
    Is it rude for a deaf person to talk (sign) with their mouth full of food?
    When does it stop being partly cloudy and start being partly sunny?
    Are eyebrows considered facial hair?
    Since bread is square, then why is sandwich meat round?

    Just some questions I've pondered for a good while that I was hoping you could shed some light on...

    Muddy Muddy Muddy... *breathes in*

    Their foot or leg... or maybe even their ear or finger.
    Other dentists. Self-diagnosing is never a good thing.
    Burgers = Beef. Sausages = Pork. So only have beef and no pork?
    No, but you can nightdream.
    Artificial flavourings and all that stuff
    Yep
    Sort of. Watching somebody eating isn't exactly pleasant either way.
    Which ever you prefer
    Yes, as they are on your face.
    Because nobody likes eating the corners of sandwiches. The middle is where it's at.

    tmac: Food I never get tired eating would be pizza. It's something filling that all you have to do is heat it up and I usually customise them by adding my own toppings on them.

    Consider the scenario of a puppy and a random stranger hanging on to the edge of a cliff. Their grips are slipping and they are far enough apart that you can only reach one of them in time. Which do you save?
