Migsy, if he was a Mennonite or a 7th Day Adventist, this history of the wedding band and rings in Western civilization may be of value to understanding.
Of course if he was coming from a religious direction he should have said so rather than just declaring any ring evil or wrong. To drop a woman because she had a middle finger ring is just crazy IMO.
We all (well most of us anyway) have had broken hearts once or thrice. It is part of the game of love. Imagine how boring romance would be if it was always rosy. We heal, we learn, and we fly again. Next time we hope to avoid the barbed wire fence. Usually we do, but one rainy night, there it is again. Next time when we heal we won't go in that direction either.
Enjoy it now. When she is 13, she will want nothing to do with her mother. When she is 19 you will really miss the mornings you woke up and she was home.
Me, I have cats that wake me up at 5am because they think I should be up and waving the string for them. They even bring the string to me and put it on the pillow so I will know what is required.
Should have taken it at 18.5, next week it will be 22.5 and Spain is a long drive from Norway. Hmmm, have you thought about getting some scissors and a second mirror? My last haircut I did that and it worked out okay. Took longer than 5 minutes though.
I don't date women with rings on the wedding ring finger. Engagement rings are often silver, wedding bands are usually gold. You had both. It is a given, in America, if a women has both, unless you were at the divorce court (and divorced women usually can't wait to take the rings off) that she is lying when she says she is not married. The rings say she is.
Before you buy one if you are not already certified as skilled, please do everyone a favor. Take a hunter safety course (even if you will never hunt, the safety part makes it worthwhile) and take lessons in how to shoot BEFORE you buy a gun.
ajkaorjun I hardly think confirming I too have seen footage showing ridiculously over crowded trains and ferries qualifies as a xenophobic comment.
It is merely that as an incentive to visit, visually appealing food is more likely to attract than reminding me of the last newsreel footage of an overcrowded train. :)
Alternatively, we in the US do not expect folks to come here just because we got new cars on our Amtrak trains. Hardly anyone comes to the US just to see our new railroad cars (especially since only a few small parts are made in the US these days and our imported rail cars look almost exactly like the imported rail cars found in other countries that buy them from the same rail car manufacturer).
The original saying was, Gods, Guns, and Guts are what made America... He just added pickup trucks. Ain't nothing more natural and American than a pickup truck with a rifle in the back window. Don't see much of that in our cities anymore, but then there isn't much of anything worth seeing in them anymore anyway. LoL
She may have been 21 when the series began, but that was years and years ago, so she wouldn't fool anyone, but TV audiences won't care till she starts to sag. :)
Happy I agreed about you at the end of last year's True Blood, but I think the ending of this season was pretty good. The saddest thing about True Blood is Sookie is not so cute anymore and no longer looks like a 21 year old (since she isn't anymore).
I hve enjoyed many episodes, but that was a good one and so was the red dinner that ended a season. Here for those who know nothing of Game of Thrones is an extract. Season 3 Episode 4
I am lucky and blessed so my regrets are not about the life in general, but rather instead about specific moments in the life where I missed an opportunity or said something I later regretted, etc.
Hee, that's a good point. If even the government thinks he snitches, and betrays secrets, why would he be expected to keep the secrets of a convict? Answer: He won't. Best to silence him before his lips flap again.
Everyone else sees an image? Hmm not with Firefox. Could be my ad blocker is blocking it out, in which case it is an image from an ad ad-blocker knows.
True that. We had my parent's dog for our first four or five years of our marriage. He had been with me or my parents for just under 19 years when he had to be put down. In truth the wife and I were walking into walls for months after that. A very good friend he was. We couldn't emotionally handle another dog yet, but as I wrote elsewhere, this little girl was just waiting on the game trail for me one day when I walked the route the dog and I used to walk. She was all blue eyed and then small enough to pick up and put in my pocket for the walk home, which I did. I never regretted that. My wife fell in love with her instantly.
I had no recognition of the words written, but oh yes, I know that tune!!
Once President Eisenhower opened up the US to the PR the PR population of NYC swelled (creating what later became called Spanish Harlem) and we saw West Side Story about the cultural clashes. Anyway, around the 60s, this was heard frequently on many of the old time AM band radio stations. Catchy tune.
He is good. He needs to team up with someone like N. Diamond or K. Kristofferson to write him some unique songs.
I have known many singers (called wandering minstrels in days of yore) who travel from club to bar in strange towns hoping for the big break. Few have this kind of voice, or if the do someone made them a backup singer instead of a main singer. It is a tough life.
