1/ spontaneous or stable ? 2/ passive or aggressive ? 3/ monogamous or experimental ? 4/ material or spiritual ? 5/ talented or driven ? 1. spontaneous - I like to live each day as a new adventure, a spouse who is too stable would go nuts 2. passive -
I just hope no one is shocked by the admission that I am a practicing homo sapien.... As long as you don't expect me to support you marrying other homo sapiens, that's fine...it just ain't natural.
I think what suprises me most is there is no shame it seems. I think if I was homeless I would be so embarassed, yet some of these people I come across EXPECT you to give them money. It is interesting. What gets me is, during our recent situation, it did occur to me that I could actually make more money
I had a cell phone for awhile, and, you're right...they're the devil. I decided that I really don't want to feel obligated to have to talk to people all the time...it's why I pay for voice mail on my home line.
I swear...someone needs to give these assholes a swift kick in the rear. I agree wholeheartedly.
When you think about how important health is, one would expect those fighting for universal healthcare would also fight for sexual aid for those unable to get it on their own. This is amusing, but it does bring up a thorny issue we dealt with when I worked with the developmentally disabled. Put
I live in Arizona so I hear people telling us we need to learn Spanish all the time. Recently in college, a hispanic professor was pointing out that hispanics are the fastest growing race in America. And because of thise, we should all learn to speak fluent Spanish. All the while I'm sitting there thinking, "Well, why don't they
The last time I told someone that of they disliked where this country was going or what it was doing perhaps they should leave it, I was told that I wasn't being practical and that that line had gotten 'old'. I won't tell you either. I WILL tell you, though, that freedom of speech is absolutely essen
Actually, wasn't Eric Rudolph charged with the Olympic bombing?
Well, Marvin, this is one post where I actually agree with 99% of what you said. But as an American whose ancestors have repeatedly paid the price of freedom, I do not have to, nor will I, leave.
Most people just don't know what to make of it when something familiar is referred to in an unfamiliar way. It's like when Steve Allen would go out on the street and ask people "Do you masticate? Have you ever masticated?" Or, the politician who squashed his opponent by revealing that his sister was an
I shake my head when these guys say they can't find a job. When I moved out here and couldn't find work, I asked around until I found a ride into the nearest big city, 60 miles away, to get there at 5:30 AM for the day labor pool (we had a car, just not reliable enough for the trip). The deal was this: if you were there at 5:30, with steel toed boots on, you had work. If you showed up later, they'd try to get you out, but they couldn't promise anything
There still must be some standards they have to maintain while recruiting staff, it can't be just anyone that walks in off the street, don't they screen them or something? Many organizations perform background checks, yes, but background checks only find crimes already committed. Quite often, as many ho
Kind of sickens me. The occupation isn't an "occupation" any more, most Iraqis when asked prefer us there. The insurgents are foreigners and ex-Hussein flunkies that the people there hate. It isn't anything like the racist and hateful Palestinians. Get over it, the doom predictions were wrong, and these new "revised" ones will be
to fluently speak every language in the world... ...think of the things you could do...hmm... shades, I swear I didn't read ANY responses before I posted my response. Interesting, huh?
I have to reply before I read any other response, so I don't get unduly influenced by others. It's a hard question, as I think about the skills I have, and appreciate the time that has gone into acquiring them. The time itself has often been the teacher. I guess I would have to say that if I could acquire one skill instantaneously, it would have to be the skill to speak and understand any language on this earth, as the invaluable natu
You're right about not giving them money. Many of the homeless have made a huge scam out of this very thing. And there are many reasons why homeless still remain. First, one of the least popular things Ronald Reagan said has a grain of truth to it: most of the TRULY homeless (as in those who have no roof over their heads, not even at a homeless shelter) are there because they choose to be. There are many options which could keep them off the s
PS, Of course, they didn't even mention how the Chinese used to use this in their torture sessions - I was stunned at the biased omission ... Yes, and the US government has DELIBERATELY AND WILLINGLY supplied DHMO to the troops!
I have often said that I live life with no regrets because regrets are, quite simply, living in the past, and with the past I have, it's not somewhere I wish to spend a lot of time. Sure, I'd love to have back earlier moments with my children, the passion of dating my wife, and all that. But to take all that back, I'd have to take a lot of baggage with it. No Thanks!
but some clerk at the city council read the horros of Dihydrogen Monoxide and so a city representative drafted an ordinance banning it's use (or something to that effect). Someone pointed out what an idiot he was and the ordinance died. Of course he blamed it all on the clerk or intern or whatever she was.
Yeah, "rockabye baby" seems a tad cruel...I wouldn't want to fall out of a tree, personally (certainly wouldn't help get me to sleep, that's for sure).
ROFL...this was a hilarious post. I wonder how many people will react without knowing what DHMO is (I ain't spoiling the surprise, hoping noone else has).
These naive twits will never understand that no matter what had been decided someone would have made money. Better without the Taliban and Hussein than with, wouldn't you say? Otherwise they would have simply been more empowered by the transaction. Baker, I'm a little disappointed. You're usually a bit
Personally, my problem with Bush is that he has always acted arrogant and above accountability, and many republicans who walk lock in step with him toss out insinuations that to question him is somehow unAmerican. I will give you that much of what I have heard about "Fahrenheit 9/11" sounds as if it is deliberately distorted data. I have not seen the movie, and do not intend to until it is released on DVD. My chief disappointment with Moore (w
Ok, I'll be nice and not pull out Gideon the Malicious (my doppleganger) for the moment... Dharma is one of those wonderful JU people who has read most of my post and commented on many of them...it does make a "newby" feel welcome to have readers (mignuna, little_whip, and bakerstreet all definitely deserve props on this as well, so they don't feel slighted).
