I don't know about this one; to me, something about it just doesn't seem right.  I had a GREAT dog growing up - the kind you wish would live for 100 years - and I'd give almost anything to see her ears flattened and tail wagging when I walk through the front door today.  But she was one of a kind, and I'd want to keep it that way.  Just because scientists CAN do something doesn't necessarily mean they should...

On the other hand, maybe you have a pet you can't imagine life without, and maybe it's unlike any animal you've known before.  Assuming you had $150,000 lying around, would you consider ordering up a clone?

I can't remember whether I got a haircut for my very first job interview back in high school, but I do recall wearing a pair of khakis, button-down shirt and tie. Within a week or two, I was proudly earning my first paycheck. And then, like now, I spoke to hundreds of people in a single shift - only my talking in that job was usually limited to one question: "Paper or plastic?"

You've probably been told that when you go for a job interview, you want to look your best. So in an increasingly competitive market, how far would you go to clean up? Would you change your style, your hair, your attitude, or nothing at all?

More than five decades after he first played college ball, Ken Mink is back on the court, shooting hoops with guys young enough to be his grandchildren.  It's cool enough to look at, but what we'd like to find out is how you athletes would play him.  Would you take him on like any opponent, or would you go a little easier on him because of his age?  What if you had the chance to deny him a shot:  Would you flat-out reject him, or would you let him take it?

What's the right thing to do when you're on the court with a 73-year-old?

Wednesday will be President Obama's first full day on the job. Like Sen. John McCain, Obama covered A LOT of ground on the campaign trail - both in traveling and the issues he addressed. So here's your chance to tell us what issue the new president should focus on first.

And if you don't see the issue that's most important to you in this Quick Vote, leave us a comment below and tell us what you think the new president's top priority should be!

For some of you, this will be the first inauguration you'll remember.  Others will compare this one to your memories of President Bush's inauguration of 2005, following his re-election, or of his first oath of office eight years ago.  What are you thinking as you hear the history discussed in Tuesday's show and see the history made in Tuesday's inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama?  What are your impressions of this event?  We'd love to get your thoughts in an iReport.

And of course, you're always welcome to tell us right here!

The 13-year-old responsible for that said it could be called "excessive."

EXCESSIVE?  It's mind-blowing!

According to recent study I just read about, the average cell phone user sends less than 400 texts a month.  Even if you sent 400 texts a DAY, you'd only rack up 12,400 by the end of January.  What else in the world would you have time for?

You can all probably remember the days before texting; it didn't really catch on until a few years ago.  We had to make phone calls back then.  Now I'm not saying texting's not fun or useful - I send and receive around 400 texts a month - but I could certainly live without it.

Could you?

Nobody in Tony Harris' report on Thursday said America is beyond race.  But most seemed to agree that the country had moved beyond the racism of the 1960s. And when you compare today's diversity of our government and our corporations and our schools to how it was back then, it's easy to see how things have changed.

The question isn't whether racism still exists - it clearly does in all races of today's society. But we'd like you to vote and comment on whether it's still a major issue in today's America, versus the America of your grandparents.

It's hard to imagine, considering the number of people I pass on a daily basis who are driving and talking on the phone.  Today, I asked a group of folks - all daily commuters - to raise a hand if they'd never used a cell phone while driving.  Not one hand (including mine) went up.

Is talking on a phone while driving more dangerous?  Sure.  Are some people better at it than others?  Yes.  But the interesting question here is whether the government can outlaw an action that we're already used to living with - and more than 80 percent of Americans say they've done.

Could you drive without EVER using the phone?
