I don't have "impossible" dreams. I do dream of being in Scotland right now, and it will be obtainable, to vacation there in the near future. I just work a lot here in Miami. However, retirement is just around the corner for me.
Then I plan, not dream but plan to spend spring and summer in Scotland, a month in the fall in Canada, and winter in Florida. and continue to do that for many years.
I do dream of having someone share that with me, preferable someone with a Scottish accent and inclined to wear a kilt every so often.
Well, Serene are we leaving Rebel2's harem and joining Brannigans? I was sooooo long waiting in line for my turn...... that I could see the grass grow.
we might be better off with the a Lothario gem..... of sorts.
....Penalties shall indeed be severe , the offender shall be immediately subjected to varying degrees of tickling for hours on end in the privacy of my harem with lots of free drink (can't say fairer than that eh)
I am ready for my hours please! err maybe that should be - me Mom is ready for various degrees of tickling for hours on end.....
Dear Diary Today I emailed Brannigan as I was ordered to do, and like when I bake a cake or make a casserole, there was some substitution involved.
By 1962 the morale of the Legion was at an all-time low; it had lost its traditional and spiritual home (Algeria), elite units had been disbanded, and in addition, many officers and men were arrested or deserted to escape prosecution. General de Gaulle considered disbanding it altogether. But after being downsized to 8,000 men and stripped of all heavy weaponry, the Legion was spared, packed up and re-headquartered in metropolitan France.
The Legion now had a new role as a rapid intervention force to preserve French interests not only in its former African colonies but in other nations as well; it was also a return to its roots of being a unit always ready to be sent to hot-spots all around the world. Some notable operations include: the Chadian–Libyan conflict in 1969–72 (the first time that the Legion was sent in operations after the Algerian War), 1978–79, and 1983–87; Kolwezi in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo in May 1978; Rwanda in 1990–94; and the Côte d'Ivoire (the Ivory Coast) in 2002 to the present.
the question is, did they want to snog you? Is that the correct grammar, as a verb to snog, a noun? a snog?, snogging?, ..................been snoggered?
The campaign against Boycott became a cause célèbre in the British press after he wrote a letter to The Times; newspapers sent correspondents to the West of Ireland to highlight what they viewed as the victimisation of a servant of a peer of the realm by Irish nationalists. Fifty Orangemen from County Cavan and County Monaghan travelled to Lord Erne's estate to harvest the crops, while a regiment of troops and more than 1,000 men of the Royal Irish Constabulary were deployed to protect the harvesters. The episode was estimated to have cost the British government and others at least £10,000 to harvest about £500 worth of crops.
Boycott left Ireland on 1 December 1880 and in 1886 he became land agent for Hugh Adair's Flixton estate in Suffolk. He died at the age of 65 on 19 June 1897 in his home in Flixton after an illness earlier that year.
Muslims say the Western world misrepresents Sharia by focusing on beheadings in Saudi Arabia and other gruesome punishments. The equivalent, they say, would be a debate about the history of Western law focused on America's electric chair. Some modern Muslim scholars say that while Sharia includes provisions for capital and corporal punishment, getting to that stage is in fact quite difficult.
How can a secular world align itself with a sharia world?
Sharia law is Islam's legal system. It is derived from both the Koran, as the word of God, the example of the life of the prophet Muhammad, and fatwas - the rulings of Islamic scholars. But Sharia differs in one very important and significant way to the legal traditions of the Western world: it governs, or at least informs, every aspect of the life of a Muslim. What does it cover? Western law confines itself largely to matters relating to crime, contract, civil relationships and individual rights. Sharia is however concerned with more. Sharia rulings have been developed to help Muslims understand how they should lead every aspect of their lives according to God's wishes. What does this mean in practice? All sorts of things in daily life. For example, many young Muslims ask themselves what they should do if colleagues invite them to the pub after work or college. Many people would of course make up their own mind about the appropriate course of action. But others may turn to a Sharia scholar for advice. So Sharia covers a lot of very mundane and banal daily issues where observant Muslims want to ensure they act within the legal framework of their faith.
RE: What is your impossible dream?
Yes, this is the place for impossible dreams.
