Q1 - God's Toys: Starting next month, more than 400 Wal-Mart stores will stock their shelves with faith-based toys. The toys will feature figures from biblical stories such as Samson, Goliath and Daniel. There is also a 12-inch-tall talking Jesus. The idea behind the line is to give children a faith alternative to action figures that have been so popular for many years. Would you buy these toys for your children?
Great, now a kid can hit her brother in the eye with Jesus in the middle of a meltdown.Q2 - Bones: How do you feel about eating meat off of a bone, i.e., chicken wings, turkey drumstick, ribs, etc.? Does eating meat directly off a bone gross you out or are you down with the bone?
Are these things going to have more realistic anatomy than 'regular' dolls, or is Samson (or Jesus!!) going to be a eunuch (actually, a worse-than-eunuch) like most male dolls? There is something REALLY REALLY wrong about that!
Obviously, with just one 14-year-old son in my household, buying these for my family is a moot point--though perhaps buying and keeping it in the box as a collector's item isn't a bad idea--but even if I had the proper child to give them to...I wouldn't. Eeeuw. The whole subject is just silly.
This ranks up there as one of the weirdest questions I've answered recently. Uhm, I guess I'm down with the bone, especially when it comes to ribs and poultry. I don't pick them up and gnaw on them in public, i.e. at restaurants (well, ok, I would with ribs), but at home or at a picnic I would. I have been known to suck the last bit of steak off a T-bone, too.Q3 - Iraq: While U.S. Senators on Wednesday blocked a bid to force a vote on U.S. troop withdrawals from Iraq, a CBS News/New York Times poll finds 61 percent of Americans think Congress should not continue to fund the situation in Iraq unless a timetable for withdrawal is put in place. Twenty-eight percent say funding should be continued without a timetable, while eight percent think all funding for the conflict should be blocked, no matter what. What do you think?

I prefer NOT to wear shoes in my house, but it's not a hard-and-fast rule. My parents always wanted me to have shoes on in the house. We have friends who keep a basket by the door for (primarily kids') shoes. I follow the rules of the house I'm in, leaning WAY towards the side of removing shoes if I'm staying for any length of time.
