Well, that depends, while some Hindu, other's don't.
Contingent upon an Israelite being a lamp made in Jerusalem.
As much so as "Is a Seventh Day Adventist" someone who holds parties on Saturdays?

I don't know or care. But I bought 20 acres last year to make a home for myself, and I'm going in with some signage. First off, I'm calling the lot, 'Nacho Place' because a lot of folks seem to have trouble understanding 'Private Property - No Trespassing.' A second sign over the entrance will read, 'Clothing Optional.' That should give them pause... 
Will Rogers never met me.

You're reminding me of the year I bagged a couple of hunters on my 40. They said they didn't know while standing within sight of 6 signs all within 25 yards.

This reminds me of my early days living in SoCal, and going to Black's Beach (i.e., a nude beach), thinking that the beach would be packed with California bikiniless babes. I think I counted 1 gal and about 100 guys.  There was this one guy somewhat nearby who for some reason wanted to talk to me (and I'm thinking, this sounds pretty gay being naked on a beach and talking to another guy). This guy then said that I reminded him of a performer at the gay theatre in Phoenix, and then I figured it out. I then put on my trunks and went into the ocean, and I realized the situation. 
The thing is, just a few years before that, I was on a beach in Greece, and it was loaded with topless babes (of course, the Americans were the ones that kept their tops on. )

I park my car in the garage everyday. You appear to have a security breach if you have to go into your own garage to get the car back.

Bearing was shot in the air-con pump. It was making a horrible noise ...

isn't shooting the air-con because it was making unpleasant sounds a tad excessive?

No no no - somebody shot the AC thats why it makes the unpleasant sound.
Reading comprehension is waaaay down around here!
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

When inquiring about booking a campsite, should you use the future conditional tense?
|
|
|
|
|
Well, anything in the future is, almost by definition, conditional (on your not being run over by a bus in the interim, for example), so it's not wrong to use that tense, but in practice it depends really on how certain your plans are.
As a POI, while your use of "inquiring" is again not technically wrong, in general I think "enquiring" would be the more accepted word in this case. "Inquire" and "inquiring" are more usually reserved for a more formal type of investigation (inquiry), while "enquiring" is for more general "asking about" usage. IMO.

Depends if you are speaking pre 1850ish English (ie American, or reading British books older than that, such as Trollope for example) or modern British English.
Today Brits use 'enquiring' and 'ensure' etc, Americans use 'inquire' an 'insure'.
One of the many subtle changes in English, such as changing 'anti' (for before, as it is in Italian) to 'ante'.
