Answer to:
was satchel page the greatest pitcher unofficially?
Unoficially, I could be the greatest pitcher ever ;)
Seriously though, he was a dominating pitcher in his prime for many years in the Negro league and other international leagues with just 5 seasons in the Majors (A rookie at 42 years of age!) His career numbers are impressive enough. Many major leaguers say he was about the hardest throwing pitcher they had ever faced.

If Beavers kill trees, how come environmentalists don't give a dam?

Some do. Beavers are part of an ecosystem but their activity can also be damaging to human industries (timber mainly) and infrastructure (roads, railways).

Do Shakira and Juanes use the same singing style?
Not really. Besides both of them being from Colombia and being huge stars (well, Juanes mostly in the Latin American market) their styles are not that similar vocally.
Juanes has more of a rock influence to his pop music than Shakira, who dabbles in many different styles. She has the longer career and tends to be more musically varied than Juanes, IMO.

Answer to:
To men: How do you really feel about romantic movies? Do you really find them sappy or is it just uncool for men to like them?
About the same as I feel about any other type of movie genre.
There are good and bad romance movies, they all can't be put in the same level.

That's a lot of tests and I think the positive results are almost conclusive.
I believe a consultation with an specialist to conduct a physical examination is now in order, only that could put your doubts and fears to rest.

Who is your favorite member of the Strokes?
While Casablancas is a good frontman and the main songwriter, I also think Albert Hammond's work on rythm guitar is equally important and very much responsible for the Strokes' "sound".

Answer to:
Is Twitter a social network?
Yes, it can be considered one. Some people call it a micro-blog of your activities, likes, interests, thoughts, etc.
It is social in the sense that you can interact not with "Friends" but "Followers" You can follow as many people, sites, companies, etc. as you are interested in or like. If you interact with people generally they will "follow" you back. You can deny or block any people...

My 2 yr old son screamed and pointed up at his ceiling as if he was seeing something in there. He is scared to sleep in his room.

What do you think of the quality of the content in your local newspaper?
There are about 5 major newspapers in my city and country. 3 of them provide good and solid information. The other 2 are basically sensasionalistic trash.
Here's the online edition of Prensa Libre, perhaps the best paper of those mentioned in terms of coverage, editorial line and variety.

Why would anyone choose to speak unkindly at, to, about a person?
Maybe because some person may deserve it or provoked such reaction? We humans are not robots, we get emotional and angry at each other.

Actually, none of the above.
You should seek help from your parents and report this to a school counselor or school authorities. I don't know the gravity of this bullying but it's preferable to put a stop to this situation better sooner than later.

If HATERS refrain from killing in the name of God but kill you for whatever are you any less dead?
Of course not.
But in my opinion that doesn't make "Killing in the name of God" (whomever that God is), any more valid.
Maybe if diferences and conflicts over relgious beliefs that tend to cause so much fanatism and hatred were removed altogether, that would give HATERS much less material to work with.
