How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)

IMDB rating: 8.70

Plot: U.S. President Merkin Muffley is on the hot line to Moscow with some rather embarrassing news for the Soviet premier: “Hello, Dimitri….I’m fine….Now then, you know how we’ve always talked about the possibility of something going wrong with the bomb….The bomb, Dimitri. The hydrogen bomb….Well, now, what happened is that, uh, one of our base commanders…he went a little funny in the head….and he went and did a silly thing….He ordered his planes to attack your country.” A comedy about an accidental nuclear attack? One that ends with total annihilation, thermonuclear apocalypse? Preposterous! Stanley Kubrick thought otherwise. In the end his thinking prevailed. The mad saga revolves around a psychotic Strategic Air Command officer, Gen. Jack D. Ripper, who lets loose his B-52 bomber squadron on the Soviet Union. Ripper takes this unilateral action because of his paranoid belief that Communists are sapping and contaminating “all our precious bodily fluids” as part of their plan to take over the world.” Unbeknownst to Ripper, his attack will trigger the Russian’s ultimate weapon, the Doomsday Machine, a diabolical retaliatory device set to blow up the planet.

It was the classic "Us aganst Them" mindset. The movie came out right around the time of the Cuban Missle Crisis, so making fun of a potentially fatal situation was needed.

The line by the Soviet diplomat about the cost of the Arms Race, Space Race, and Peace Race was true enough.

You can just look at old copies of "Time" and "Newsweek" from 1960-1965 to get an idea of what was going on in the real world.

Do you think if you got more sleep your grades would be better?
It just seems to be, that there’s too much work for high school students and if there was less people would get more sleep.

I’m talking about the studious people, who actually give a hoot about their work.
white and nerdy: wow that’s crazy. i believe u tho
I teach in the States, but I live in Ontario. Do you think that maybe school is too easy in Canada then?

or maybe you guys are just REALLY smart : )

Actually, come to think of it any Canadian teen I know is really smart.


I have insomnia so I’m basically functioning on about three hours maximum of sleep a night and I still get straight As. My sleep doesn’t really affect me at all.

How To Apologize To A Dinner Companion And Boss?
I am new to Yahoo Answers and hope someone can help me with an embarrassing situation. My name is George and I am an office manager with a real estate development company in lower Manhattan. Our office is situation on the 19th floor of a large office complex. Last night I had the pleasure of escorting a lady friend to dinner. She works at the office adjacent to our office on the 19th floor, as each floor accommodates two offices.

I was feeling a little under the weather but Elsbeth had already agreed to the dinner invite so I didn’t want to back out at the last minute. We went to a club called Happy Jack’s which is located five blocks from our office building. It’s an upper-end club, with a nice clientele and one of the top chef’s in New York. There is a live band in the lounge seven nights a week and I felt this would be the perfect spot for my first date with Elsbeth.

We shared a stuffed artichoke appetizer and for the main course I had a 16-oz. beef steak, rare, potatoes au gratin and a vegetable medley with a glass of ice water. We ate our dinner and then decided to go to the lounge for an after-dinner drink and to enjoy the band, a jazz trio that is well known in the greater metropolitan area.

Elsbeth and I each enjoyed an after-dinner liqueur, then sat back to listen to the band. I began to feel nauseated. I stood up and turned to Elsbeth to excuse myself but when I did I proceeded to vomit all over the table, the floor and Elsbeth. The force of the vomiting caused my bowels to loosen and I soiled myself with diarrhea and and passed extremely loud flatulence. The band stopped playing and everyone in the lounge was looking at me. Elsbeth was humiliated and ran from the restaurant.

I apologized to the staff and excused myself to the lavatory. I took off my trousers and my knickers and put them to soak in the wash basin while I went to a second wash basin and splashed cold water on my face and dried it off. At that moment my boss, Bernard, walked into the lavatory. He told me that my outburst was the most outrageous thing he had ever witnessed in proper society and to be in his office first thing in the morning.

I called in to my secretary this morning and told her I was too ill to come in but that I would be in tomorrow. I am sure that Bernard intends to relieve me of my duties with the company and I cannot afford to lose my job. I am heavily in debt and this is unacceptable.

In addition to needing to be able to apologize to my boss, Elsbeth has refused to speak to me as well. I called her home three times after I got home last night to apologize but her voice mail answered each time. While I am a very attractive man I am not getting any younger and I see Elsbeth as an attractive potential mate, but I dont know if that will ever be a possibility after last night’s debacle. So how can I set things right with Bernard, Elsbeth and the staff at Happy Jack’s? I offered to pay for the damages but I have less than $50 in the bank and am looking at the possibility of being jobless tomorrow.


Good lord…

lol.ahhhhahhhhahh…you are funny. Tell me more sir.. I just want to hear cuz it’s pretty hopeless, but it’ll make for a good old joke..ahahahahahaha
Multiple Crap Notes | Feb 02, 2010


That’s quite an embarassing incident to happen to you Sir. However what startled me the most was reading that you wore knickers! I know it’s the 21st century Sir but for a man to wear knickers is considered rather odd. Maybe what happened was for the best as Elsbeth has been spared the horrendous sight of you in a pair of frilly knickers. So I say cut your losses and find alternative employment. Good day to you and the best of luck!

Thanks for looking, just trying to balance out my tank!


i have 65 gallon tank…..please……can u help me….what all i need to do….pleaseee….
i’m new and intrested in this feild??????????
mak | Feb 02, 2010


This actually sounds great..
my 2 cents is, go to 50% watter changes.
This will be much more effective.
This will also replace the Trace elements weekly.
You can then add the Flourish Fertilizer instead of the Trace.
Also, with the CO2 you really don’t need the Excel.
I have used this in the past and it actually made my water cloudy.

How could I lighten the news of my name change?
How can I break my last name change to my "dad’s" side of the family?
When I was around the age of 2, after my dad allegedly had some sort of affair, my mom and my dad got a divorce; and after that, my "dad" continued on being –for all intents and purposes– a bad father, by neglecting to act as my father.
It was a really rough time for my mom (who is a Saint, by the way), but she managed with the help of her family AND ALSO my dad’s family, and eventually she met my TRUE father, and remarried when I was 4. He then fully took on the responsibility of being my dad and raised me like I was blood, with affection and all. And he wanted me to have his name, as well, so he and my mom took my dad to court about changing my last name; but when my grandparents (dad’s side) found out, they completely opposed that and urged my dad to fight the idea, and so he never consented to me changing my name to my "stepfather’s," and that is where my life problem started.
Up until that point, my dad was the only one who wasn’t fulfilling their role in life. I (and even my mom) had a great relationship with my grandparents and aunt, and in all actuality, they collectively felt like a parent to me–so there was no problem. But when this whole thing came up about changing my name, my grandparents were hurt or angered, so things were never quite the same between the family on my dad’s side and my mom, though their problem was more with my "stepfather" than my mom, since it was more his wish for my name change. I, however, still had a great relationship with the grandparents and aunt, and I always have. But through my life, I have gone by my stepfather’s last name (nickname, i guess) in everything I did, and i basically played it off on my dad’s side by saying it was my stepfather who wanted me to do it–which was true, but i liked going by the name, as well.
Anyway, growing up, that was always a really sensitive subject, and many fights or really unpleasant discussions have come up all through my life about the possibilities of my changing my name when I turned 18.
Well, i turned 18 in 2006, and decided to change my name to my stepfather’s and told the courts i was doing that to honor my "true" father. And i have never felt like it was the wrong choice. But–and this is where i sound terrible–i never told my dad’s side that i went through with the name change for fear of losing them. That may sound extreme, and may be extreme, but through all of those very heated discussions i had growing up, i feel like i know the news would be quite a blow to our relationship (between my grandparents and aunt). Anyway, i used to think that I would be able to keep this a secret from that side of the family forever and make everyone happy, but obviously that’s not realistic; and thing that opened my eyes to that truth is marriage talk with my girlfriend of 5 years. How could we get through a ceremony without anyone finding out… haha. And obviously it is time to get rid of this burden, and i definitely don’t want my wife to have to bear it.
Anyway, I have thought about just changing my name to my wife’s last name… but i really don’t like that idea. I also used to ask both sides if i could just mix the names somehow between the middle and last names, but basically said all or nothing. Man… i don’t know what to do. It haunts my life, honestly. I mean, I’m a happy person and have a pretty great life, but this name situation sucks, and has always sucked. Sorry if this little story is choppy and hard to follow. It’s hard trying to reduce the story down to 90% of the related happenings, since this has been an issue since my early childhood. If anyone is curious about any more information, feel free to ask. I won’t be offended.


It’s shocking that a man who would be such a great father to you would create such a problem for you. It’s just a name. You are a man now. You need to decide what YOU want, then tell them. They may get angry, but they will get over it. It sounds like they need you much more than you need them. Stop being subjected to emotional blackmail. Your "real" dad is dead wrong, and so are your dad’s family.

ouragon | Jan 21, 2010


I admire you and think your stepfather (who really was your real father in more ways) would be proud of you. You really don’t owe anyone an explanation of your name change - even your bio-father’s side of the family.

With names now a days, its not so important about keeping or changing a name you were born with. You use your name you’ve been using for your marriage name and put it on the invitations. And your fiance’ takes your last name as it is now.
Ocimom | Jan 21, 2010


I’m changing my last name to ‘Eastwood’, just because ‘KJ Eastwood’ has a ring to it.

you could do the same, and it’s all good.

(I’m also thinking about ‘Vader’. K.J. Vader… Hmmmmmmm)
KJ III | Jan 21, 2010


Curious about MORE information?! Jesus. You are kidding. I am a busy lady with a life and did not have time to read the whole of this, let alone more! Just tell whoever needs to know that you are changing your name. If you worry about what everyone says and thinks you will never do anything in life.
Samantha South | Jan 21, 2010


Right first things first. It is up to you, you are an adult, it is your choice and they will just have to lump it.

You say how great your dad’s side of the family is but they can’t be that brilliant if they would stop talking to you for changing your name.

Perhaps double barrel your last name if you want a compromise.

Why do people trust Glenn Beck to give you the real facts on Che Guevara?
On January 22, 2010 Glenn Beck ran a short feature on Che Guevara for his anti-Communist "documentary" where he basically proclaimed Che a racist for a line in his diary passage about "blacks being indolent and lazy". However, the "black is indolent" line was taken out of context by Glenn Beck for his "documentary" … what is the truth?

That quote was written by Che when he was 24 and encountered blacks for the first time in a Venezuelan slum during his Motorcycle trip around South America. *** The full context of this statement is addressed by biographer Jon Lee Anderson on page 92 of "Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life." However, months later he announced himself a transformed man and even denounced the racism he encountered while living in Miami for a month. The quote was from 1952, before he was Che. Years later in Cuba he showed he was not racist through his actions:

- Che pushed for racially integrating the schools in Cuba, years before they were racially integrated in the Southern United States.

- Che’s friend and personal bodyguard was Harry "Pombo" Villegas, who was Afro-Cuban (black). Pombo accompanied Che to the Congo and to Bolivia, where he survived and now lives in Cuba. Of note, Pombo speaks glowingly of Guevara to this day

- When Che spoke before the U.N. in 1964 he spoke out in favor of black musician Paul Robeson, in support of slain black leader Patrice Lumumba (who he heralded as one of his heroes), against white segregation in the Southern U.S. (which still unfortunately existed), and against the white South African apartheid regime (long before it became the Western ’cause de jour’).

- Che was also heralded by Malcolm X during this trip to NY and in contact with his associates to whom he sent a letter, and later on behalf of his actions in Africa - praised by Nelson Mandela and the Black Panther’s Stokely Carmichael.

- When Guevara ventured to the Congo, he fought with a Cuban force of 100 Afro-Cubans (blacks) including those black Congolese fighters who he fought alongside against a force comprised partly of White South African mercenaries. This resembled the fight in Cuba, where Che’s units were also made up of mostly mulattos and blacks.

- Later Guevara offered assistance to fight alongside the (black) FRELIMO in Mozambique, for their independence from the Portuguese.

- Lastly, in August 1961 (9 years after his "indolent" remark), Guevara attacked the U.S. for "discrimination against blacks, and outrages by the Ku Klux Klan", which matched his declarations in 1964 before the United Nations (12 years after his "indolent" remark), where Guevara denounced the United States policy towards their black population, stating:

"Those who kill their own children and discriminate daily against them because of the color of their skin; those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, protecting them, and furthermore punishing the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men

I don't know what I should do?
So I’ve had the same best friend since 7th grade..I’m now a freshman but I don’t think our friendship is going too well..
Over the summer I moved away, and a lot happened while I was gone. My best friend was basically in a abusive relationship I guess you could say. Her boyfriend pressured her to have sex, even though she told him over and over that she wasn’t ready. One day he just basically forced himself on her, and then a few hours later he broke up with her.
I moved back over christmas vacation, and I have been trying to be as good a friend as I can be. Many of her old friends have turned against her because the don’t know the full story so they all think she’s a whore. She made plenty of new friends but I don’t really know any of them. I’ve tried to fit in with them but it’s just not working.
She has been very distant and depressed ever since what happened with her ex boyfriend. And i have been understanding and as helpful as possible. But lately she has been totally ignoring me.
Like she barely ever talks to me at school, and if theres someone else hanging out with us she will pretty much only talk to them. And today at lunch she pretty much ditched me to talk to this other girl. So I confronted her about it and she says that the girl pulled her away because she had to tell her something…
I don’t really have many other friends there because i basically gave up most of my old friends because they were being mean to my best friend. So thats why I always hang around her. I know she’s been distant lately because she is so depressed..but it’s making me feel horrible and i dunno what to do.
Am I overthinking this situation? or being unfair? I’m not sure what to think or do. Is it time to find new friends?
Some more info on our friendship..
1.We like all the things and think the same way
2.we’ve had like a super close relationship, like she’s the best friend i’ve ever had. So i dont wanna lose her.
3.we were inseparable up until this summer.


Find some new friends…but be there for her when she comes around.
Just put your focus on others right now in the friends department. I am guessing the newer people don’t remind her of what she has been through and may seem more appealing.
Give her some space to heal but let her know you want to be her friend and will be there when she is ready.
Kelli M | Feb 02, 2010


hmm well yeah this would be tough situation and im really sorry about that. I think if shes pushing you away like that you should give her some space. ask someone that you kind of know if they want to hang out with you at lunch,( because you wouldnt want to be by yourself )and they might apprectiate it too, if they are possibly going through friend/boyfriend troubles (and everyone does). then soon your friend will recognize that she hasnt seen you for a while, shell probably ask what happened and you can explain to her what you tried to before but dont try to blame her since shes already feeling down. it is hard her being kind of raped and shes just lashing out at you because she knows you can handle it. dont let it get to you. be a good friend and watch out for her but keep your distance for while. hope i helped.
