    The inflatable Sarah Palin sex doll now for sale. Topco Sales has created the This Is Not Sarah Palin Inflatable Love Doll. I assume it&amp;#39;s named as such to avoid libel suits and confusing Todd Palin. What are your thoughts?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

Meet Clara Meadmore, the 105-year-old virgin who claims she has the secret to immortality, no sex. This retired secretary who still has her own hair, teeth, and sharp wit, never had time for a family and lived alone until going into care. She had lots of platonic friendships with men but never felt the urge to have sex or get married. She thanks that &amp;#39;No Sex&amp;#39; has helped her lived this much.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

    &lt;b&gt;31 answers&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;+4 raves&lt;/b&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
    At a campaign stop in Pennsylvania Wednesday, McCain referred to his supporters as &amp;quot;fellow prisoners&amp;quot; in a botched attack on his Democratic opponent Barack Obama.

&amp;quot;You and I together will confront the $10 trillion debt the federal government has run up and balance the federal budget by the end of my term in office,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Across this country, this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent.&amp;quot;

Judging by McCain&amp;#39;s pause, he expected that to be an applause line. But the crowd was silent and oddly confused. What do you think?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

    &lt;/div&gt;
    Meet Max, the 2-year-old lost terrier who traveled 45 miles all by himself to come back to his owner. His owner, Bill Clark lost his dog when he got in a car accident on his convertible and Max jumped out the back and took off into nearby woods in New England. The accident occurred 45 miles away from his home and Clark searched for his lost dog desperately three weeks until his dog made it back home. Clark isn&amp;#39;t sure how Max found his way back, but he had put out some of his own clothes and the dog&amp;#39;s favorite food along the highway close to his home to try to help him find his way. Max was not injured during his trek home, but lost 11 pounds. Has your lost pet ever made it back home?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

    &lt;b&gt;World's Oldest Man Turns 113: Do you want to live to 100?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
    &lt;div&gt;

    &lt;img alt="World's Oldest Man Turns 113: Do you want to live to 100?" src="http://images.sodahead.com/images/polls/0/0/0/1/5/8/5/6/7/polls_oledst_man_japan_tomoji_tanabe2_5255_90931_poll_large.jpeg" align="top" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    
    &lt;b&gt;36 answers&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;+11 raves&lt;/b&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
    The world&amp;#39;s oldest man celebrated his 113th birthday Thursday in southern Japan, telling reporters he wants to live another five years. Tomoji Tanabe, who was born Sept. 18, 1895, received birthday gifts, flowers and $1,000 cash from the mayor of his hometown of Miyakonojo, on Japan&amp;#39;s southern island of Kyushu.

The former city land surveyor, who lives with his son and daughter-in-law, is in good health and sticks to the habits that have gotten him this far. He rises early and reads the newspaper each day, drinks milk every afternoon and eats regular meals. He also avoids alcohol and does not smoke.

On Tuesday he woke up early in the morning to eat breakfast before walking out to meet the mayor and members of the press at his home, Yokoyama said. The cash gift he received is given annually to the city&amp;#39;s oldest resident.

Japan has one of the world&amp;#39;s longest life expectancies, nearly 86 years for women and 79 years for men, which is often attributed to the country&amp;#39;s healthy diet rich in fish and rice.

The number of Japanese living past 100 has more than doubled in the last six years, reaching a record high of 36,000 people this year. The country&amp;#39;s centenarian ranks are dominated by women, who make up 86 percent of the total.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

    Todd Palin refuses to testify in an investigation into her firing of Alaska&amp;#39;s public safety commissioner. Key lawmakers say the McCain-Palin campaign and some witnesses want to delay the probe until after the election. Sarah Palin initially welcomed the bipartisan investigation into accusations that she dismissed the state&amp;#39;s public safety commissioner because he refused to fire her ex-brother-in-law, a state trooper. &amp;quot;Hold me accountable,&amp;quot; she said. But she has increasingly opposed it since Republican presidential candidate John McCain tapped her as his running mate. The McCain campaign dispatched a legal team to Alaska including O&amp;#39;Callaghan, a former top U.S. terrorism prosecutor from New York to bolster Palin&amp;#39;s local lawyer.

Officials at Metrolink have said the engineer passed through a red signal without stopping, probably causing the accident. But federal investigators cautioned against jumping to conclusions and predicted that the investigation could span many months.

Why the two trains were on the same track heading toward each other at about 40 miles per hour has puzzled officials. The claim of the text message exchange is among the more sensational factors officials are investigating. But what if Sanchez did it intentionally? He had a previous criminal record for stealing video games and was 46-years-old living alone.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

  <title type="html">Gas Prices Near $6 a Gallon In Parts of Florida: Is this illegal?</title>

    &lt;b&gt;Gas Prices Near $6 a Gallon In Parts of Florida: Is this illegal?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
    &lt;div&gt;
    
    &lt;a href="http://www.sodahead.com/question/154633/"&gt;
    &lt;img alt="Gas Prices Near $6 a Gallon In Parts of Florida: Is this illegal?" src="http://images.sodahead.com/images/polls/0/0/0/1/5/4/6/3/3/polls_bilde_0415_666897_poll_large.jpeg" align="top" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    
    &lt;b&gt;58 answers&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;+14 raves&lt;/b&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
    Gasoline prices rose up to $5.50 a gallon in parts of Florida on Friday when rumors of a fuel shortage spread across the state. Motorists in Tallahassee were lined up to pay $5.49 per gallon.

A fuel panic swept Gainesville on Thursday, where long gas lines spilled over onto a busy thoroughfare, tempers flared and the police were called, said Randy Bly, a spokesman for AAA Auto Club South.

But Agriculture and Consumers Services Commissioner Charlie Bronson responded quickly.

“There is no fuel shortage in Florida,” Bronson said. “There&amp;#39;s hundreds of millions of gallons available.”

Bronson promised to act quickly to any price gougers.

He said he would subpoena the records of any gas station suspected of price gouging. Violators face a $10,000 fine per violation, up to $25,000 a day. He said retailers can’t raise prices arbitrarily just because they anticipate higher prices in the future.

But, according to Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services spokesman Terry McElroy it doesn&amp;#39;t necessarily mean retailers are gouging customers when prices rise wildly.

If wholesale prices justify the increases, there&amp;#39;s not much regulators can do, he said.
Marsha Kut, travel Manager for Lee County AAA, predicted a 20- to 30-cent increase at Lee County pumps.

She said the hike should be short term, lasting a few days to a week.

“We have enough oil,” she said.

Ike’s relentless march across the Gulf of Mexico has had little effect on crude oil future contracts. They even dropped below $100 a gallon at one point Friday before settling at $102.50.

Randy Bly, a spokesman for AAA Auto Club South, said rising prices at the pump seem counterintuitive. He said the increase is related to refinery capacity.

“Our office has been flooded with calls,” Bly said “This was consumer-driven, it was like a run on the bank. There really is no shortage, we are well supplied. There could be some spot outages. We anticipate a price increase of 20 cents to 30 cents a gallon in the next few days.”

Gasoline contracts for October delivery spiked more than 8 percent — 2.08 cents per gallon — on Friday.

“The nightmare scenario is unfolding before our eyes,” said Jim Rouiller, senior energy meteorologist with Planalytics Inc. in Wayne, Pa.

Ike’s storm surge will “completely inundate all the refineries and chemical plants that line Galveston Bay from Texas City all the way to Baytown. It’s a storm surge that this part of Texas hasn’t experienced in a lifetime.”

The American Automobile Association reported that the statewide average price for a gallon of unleaded gas in Florida today is $3.69, a penny higher than the national average. Average prices peaked nationally at $4.13 a gallon for regular unleaded on July 1 and have been falling steadily ever since.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
