im not american so i dont know if this is possible over there after all, but where i come from this would be against legal certainty and therefore it should be impossible to pass a bill like that (discussing it would probably catapult you to the constitutional court). i would like to think it would...

The two versions of the book are: and https://librivox.org/the-secret-garden-by-frances-hodgson-burnett-... Please read the book and post your thoughts here.

"One Love" by Bob Marley. Maybe a weird choice? Sounds OK on a ukulele at least.

Have a test recording for us?

Anyone for a game of Scrabble? 8-) No. It does violence to the spirit of crossword puzzles! What really gets me is people who waltz in here, drop their 2 cents worth (It sure is not worth more), Tell us how and what we should be doing with no intentions of doing it him/herself. Why do people keep m...

Hmm... how do you think he interprets "slow children at play"?

I wouldn't trust Logitech to do anything right after getting ripped off. My advice is to browse around newegg before making a decision, looking for something with a lot of reviews and at least 4 eggs. In each of those items, check the specifications tab for a broad microphone response range. Finally...
