RE: Foul Language

The Oxford English Dictionary has recognized “fuçk” as an acceptable word since 1972 and during a search of Amazon it listed more than 1000 song titles and/or artist names.

Panic

Hi Mimi
That would be a major catastrophe and could lead to mass panic. You won't be alone.

Panic

hi Red
Do I detect a trace of sarcasm in your comment. I hope not. I don't know you like that.

RE: where were the parents?

That is the right question to ask. Where were the parents?

RE: Trees

Moele,
No need to worry about that. There is plenty of fresh water on this planet. If just half the daily flow of any one of the ten largest rivers in the world could be diverted to where it is needed, there would have been enough water for every person on this planet.

Panic

Hi Mic
Yes, maybe sometimes but I'd say that it is more likely that the one who kept his wits while everybody else is in a panic, is the only one capable of making an accurate assessment of the situation.

Panic

Hi Badly
So stress took its toll; you did not say whether the stress came from outside factors or not. I'm not sure what could be so stressful when working with high voltage that could affect lives other than your own. Maybe you got too used to electricity.

A few years ago an experienced electrician over here was electrocuted while on duty. No reason could be found for this mishap. He probably got so used to electricity that forgot about the dangers in it and then became negligent.

Panic

Hi Red
When somebody cannot overcome their fear it is probably because they are in denial. You have to face 'the elephant' whenever it approaches or you won't be able to control your fear. The sight of 'the elephant' must become routine.

Panic

Hi Kal,
We all have fears but some of us deal with it better than others.

Ah, the monster in your star sign... well eh... eh... Just hit it on the nose to subdue it.

Panic

Hi Ashley
Just relax and keep up with it. It will become routine very soon and you will no longer need to fear it.

Panic

Hi Raphael (The Healer of God)
Right, you cannot fight it and you dare not deny or ignore it. But you can and must control it.

Panic

It happened so many times it is now routine. Why do you think I'm single at my age.

Not Just Australia

Never!

Not Just Australia

hi Red
Just as well we don't have such penal colonies today. In some countries there will be nobody left after sending the bad ones off.

Not Just Australia

Hi Palm,
I questioned the use of words as well, but unfortunately my screenwriter used those words so I had to stick to the script.

Not Just Australia

Hi Chat
He's not on line yet. The modern-day historians are often behind time.

Yea, they told us that in school. But funny, in my mothers tongue they have slightly different names. The American variety is called an 'Indiaan' and the Asian version is called an 'Indier'. No confusion; see.

But please note that no Native American was hurt during the production of this blog. Nor did we venture onto their hunting grounds.

RE: Connecting singled

Oh, but I have a lead for you. Collectively they are known as The MODS. Maybe if you Google that.

Not Just Australia

I bet you one or two other fellas will also end up on the wrong continent.

RE: Doing one's bit.

Hmm, I did some reading but found nothing new. I thought it was a more recent departure under discussion. I am a bit wiser now but I missed too much of the politics while I was gone. Anyway, that should teach me for staying away for so long.

What’s Happening In The US Of A?

Hi Conrad,
I assume that you guys keep a close watch at whats happening across your borders. Things easily spill over the borders.

RE: Doing one's bit.

Hmm, but I don't know who you're talking about and even less understand the lingo.

Sorry Hoober, not aiming to hijack your blog.

RE: Doing one's bit.

Eishhh, all this code talking. How I wish I was back in the loop.

What’s Happening In The US Of A?

Hi Efe
Is it any better there?

Not according to this.

RE: Mix emotions

Hi Tatami
It should not really be mixed feelings. The job comes first. But I'm glad for your sake that you got the job.

Real mixed feelings is like when you see your worst enemy going over a cliff in your brand new and still uninsured car.

What’s Happening In The US Of A?

RED
I'm not against gun control. I cannot imagine any well-run country to be without it. What I am against is disarming the law-abiding citizenry.

Yea, education is a good starting point, but there is a long road ahead of them.

RE: There Was A Trivial Man...

Hi Badly,
Great idea but it won't catch on - at least not in the west - because it is in direct contrast with capitalism and then it is unlikely that the other lot would bother much with the English alphabet.

Capitalism is to spend more money, not to save more money.

What’s Happening In The US Of A?

Hi Ocee,
Well spoken. I cannot see a well-run country without gun control. But it does not need to be total banishment.

The Monster In Your Star Sign

What divine wisdom comes from the mouth of the Aries ewe.

The Monster In Your Star Sign

Hi Kal,
Hmm, Aries is a bit of a difficult customer.

The Monster In Your Star Sign

Mic
What puzzles me most is that they are found at different places; as with the pyramids.
