In horse racing is 50 to 1 a long shot or a horse everyone is betting on?
lol most people would definitely not bet on a 50-1 because it's about the chances of you pulling a penny out of a jar of fifty nickles. Mine that Bird one this years Kty Derby, but his chances were not precisely correct. A horse's odds come from people betting, the more people bet on a horse, the more chances it has of winnig, so people think.
What does it mean if you ask your fiance about him cheating and he denies it and laughs it off?
It can mean one of two things: (a) that, to him, its a ridiculous question to ask because he's never given you a reason to doubt him or (b) that he's cheating and doesn't really know how to respond to that question. If you are seriously about to marry this guy, you and him need to sit down and have a very very serious talk. Both of you need to sit down and get things (doubts) out in the open. I, honestly, believe that if you are doubting him, then you're doubting the relationship, too. Honey, if you're unsure of the man that you are with and the things that he has done or is doing, then you need to confront him about it. Don't get deeper into something when there is doubt because someone is bound to get hurt in the end. Don't be afraid. Just be honest and confront what's bothering you now before its too late. Best of luck to you, sweetie. I really hope things work out for you and that in the end you find your happiness!b

There is just 1 race : the Human Race !
Thank you for the above answer which was meant to be taken tongue-in-cheek.
There are only four main races in the world but several sub races and mixed races;
Caucascoid, Negroid, Mongoloid and Austroloid.
Two of them are labeled by their skin color and its culturally acceptable throughout the world as in, The Whites or The Blacks. The other nationalities find it highly offensive, culturally unaceptable and some may say vulgar to address someone as a red skin, yellow, skin, or brown skin. Describing skin color is appropriate in an educational atmosphere such as this one.
Racial slurs have also been around for thousands of years and is also considered in most cultures as highly offensive, fecesious and yes vulgar. The White race however have tended not be offended so much by their racial slurs. Many actually use the terms in a humorous sense such as honky,cracker, white trash, etc.
