RE: should children under two be allowed to fly

you and I share a little bit of the same type of humor! I thought the same thing.

RE: Dating site

This site is a good place to get sympathy, advice and real opinions, whether you ask for them or not.....

He told you what you wanted to hear. I think you should take control of your love life, and not play the victim. But that is just me.

RE: Perfect

Perfection to me -

Single, Male and Scottish!

RE: Dating site

He hasn't given you the truth so far, what make you think you will get it now?

You certainly can do better than him.

RE: do every human in this world dislike Irish travelers ???

there is no logic to saying that one group is worse than the other.

First of all this is a connecting singles site, (lovely and free) not a lets solve all the world's problems site.

I am for one, not interested in getting 2 groups coming together in an understanding. Maybe you should join the UN.

RE: Dating site

he lies, you were played. Again I ask so what do you want to do?

RE: An Eye For An Eye?

actually a dog that bites often does not bite again, and a lion that has tasted human flesh does not hunt humans - it is all a crap shoot, in the living and dying business.

What about a business person who intentionally cuts corners in his business and it kills someone? Like the guy who owned a tanning company for years and let the toxic crap go into the ground instead of safely expensively disposing the waste, and it gets into the groundwater and kills the 13 kids with cancer?

RE: Dating site

What do you want to do?

RE: An Eye For An Eye?

Hi Fishin! I think emotionally we all like this idea - however, the "victims" family should not administer the punishment as it becomes a free for all revenge rather than justice and the law and societies rules - also the victim family never feels closure - there is no such a thing as closure (I think) - just getting on with one's life.

And suppose the death was a result of gang warfare? does the victim family (the rival gang) get to exact retribution? Our society then returns to anarchy.

RE: Which song is your favorite?

Peer Gynt, Op. 23 is the incidental music to Henrik Ibsen's 1867 play of the same name, written by the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg in 1875. It premiered along with the play on 24 February 1876 in Christiania (now Oslo).

Later, in 1888 and 1891, Grieg extracted eight movements to make two four-movement suites: Suite No. 1, Op. 46, and Suite No. 2, Op. 55. Some of these movements have received coverage in popular culture

RE: do every human in this world dislike Irish travelers ???

(just a little of my OCD)

I think there is a fundamental issue on how each group values (or not) possessions and property. The value of land and property for the "settled" versus the nomad live off the land and common property for the Irish Travelers (in all the various cultural groups).

Does this culture stem from the time that Scotland, England and Ireland, and Wales have the "enclosures", the highland clearances, the booting people off the everything was common property into being fenced off, "owned" and identified? Major shifts in whole groups of the population happened when this occurred.

So how do you get two groups of folks to arrive at a common understanding? One set of various tribes and clans went along with the new ways of land management, the end to the feudal and tribal way of life and the other went with the centuries old ways that the land was always common land and you could walk your pig through the town cause it was all belonging to the people not individuals.

RE: During The American Civil War, Which 2 European Countries Were Ready To Get Involved?

My ancestors came to America and Canada in 1860 just before the civil war from Scotland. Settled in Pennsylvania - those Scots sure know about fighting in Civil wars, since they did so for 400 years with Britain.

RE: Any tips for dealing with the ‘monkey mind’ after spending too long online?

RE: Wishful thinking...

I don't know if my wish since before 2010 has ever been realistic - I wish to spend a lot of my time in Scotland, America and Canada. I would LOVE, LOVE, Love to find a nice Scottish gentleman who wishes to share those traveling times with me. I am almost ready to retire - so I don't have to become a citizen of Scotland or work there, just wish to have extended visits there spring and summer -

I would like to share my life, and belong in his.

RE: SO many profiles w/ no pics!!

Well I for one, like to see the photos of other things beside profiles photo, like with dogs or scenery, and artwork and photos that says something about the character of the person.

I am not really interested in handsome men so much as rugged comfortable in the skin kinda men

and of course I am at the age, where I enjoy seeing a little bit of grey hair or no hair.

RE: do every human in this world dislike Irish travelers ???

What is the Irish Traveler's philosophy of life? Why are they stuck with the old nomadic and isolated way of life? or is that a myth?

Also why is there a decreased desire to education the children in regular ways? or is that just a myth.
