RE: 'THE DISAPPEARANCE"

Sometimes you can find deleted blogs on Google if the search engine cached it...but they don't stay up long. I have no idea what the name of your blog was or I would have tried to find it for you.

RE: Dream & Hoping

Your profile says you are divorced now. So you can find someone else to love, and perhaps the financial picture can get better as well.

RE: English As A Second Language.

It's interesting you would post this, Cat. I just had a lady who does cleaning for me ask me to teach her English. As I have never taught a language before, I wouldn't know how to begin. Also, there are many classes here that teach English, I suspect she just doesn't want to pay (although they are very low in cost) or doesn't want to take the time.

The difficulties she had with English were expressed just as you described: the problems in pronunciation. etc.

Although I would like to help her, how would I teach her a complete language? It would be fine if she just wanted to ask me about certain words, but to teach her the language is a bit more of an undertaking.

Any suggestions? Thanks so much. - C

RE: Men will always be Men_Women will always be Women

sad might as well get a blow up doll then.

RE: To Make You Smile :) :)

RE: The Marshmallow Test

It isn't very hard to wait 15 minutes to get an extra marshmallow. However, other circumstances that require self control do take a lot more effort than suffering a 15 minute wait. (Wish I could lose a pound by just waiting fifteen minutes to eat)..

RE: were is all the real woman that wants a man for wh

They also may be worried that you might depend on them financially. It isn't just women who are looking for someone to help support them while they write their novel or have some other reason for lacking steady employment.

RE: Was Jesus Rich?

Calle, I don't know if that is true of "all" of them. I remember Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen back in the early 90s (not sure of the years, but some time ago). Their teachings have gotten much more materialistic than they were in the beginning. They actually had some good "sermons" back in those days. Perhaps money corrupted them, or something else. Scripture does say, "strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered."

RE: It’s What You Choose to Believe - Final

so much to read, so much to read...

RE: It’s What You Choose to Believe - Final

o i c...ty both!

that explains it.

RE: Was Jesus Rich?

Have you seen when the camera takes in Joel Osteen's audience? Packed!

People want to hear things that make them feel good. Hearing about the cross or other sacrificial aspects of Christian living doesn't draw in the crowds. Money and blessings do. Simple.

It also justifies their exorbitant lifestyles.

RE: It’s What You Choose to Believe - Final

Interesting difference in word translation. I have always read the Scripture you quoted, "Whatever thou spendest I will repay thee," as "whatever thou "give", will be repaid. "Spend" makes it clear it means money. Can you tell me, what is the exact Scripture you are quoting, with the word "spend"? Thanks!

RE: Was Jesus Rich?

Socrates, VERY GOOD REVIEW on the "prosperity gospel".

It is extremely sad and disheartening to see so many preachers today claiming God wants them and all Christians to be rich. Worse, they hint or claim outright these riches will come only if Christians plant a "seed" (money) into the ministry (most notably theirs.)

Again. VERY GOOD expose. Wish all could read it.

RE: hiI need women body in Riyadh

We should have a contest for the most hilarious blogs (or blog titles) of the year...this would be a contender.

That is, if his intentions are honorable...

RE: hiI need women body in Riyadh

bunbun...

Make this a REAL New Year!!!

Thanks so much Wallops, Angel, and everyone...I had a pretty quiet New Year's Eve myself... :) except at midnight! I was hoping my car alarm wouldn't go off, with the noise.

I hope no one got too drunk...I remember one New Year's Eve when I did (that I never forgot)...yikes!

RE: Start a jar

Or you could start a box ... ...or make a note in your journal ...

Make this a REAL New Year!!!

Robert, I find it helps to write things down, and clarify what you want to change/accomplish in a new year. Hence this blog, struggling to stay afloat in an already overflooded Happy New Year CS Blogland!!!

Guess a lot of people feel like you do, they just want to go with the flow...but I thought it would be inspirational and truly helpful to talk about other's original "resolutions" for 2015, or "changes" they personally wanted/needed to make...perhaps not the same old "lose weight" maxim (no matter how true it may be)...but small yet meaningful resolutions that will impact their lives in important ways.

Make this a REAL New Year!!!

Thanx, Bun...er, are you writing this post or your husband? lol.
I hope your new year nets you the lottery!

For those who are interested, here are some free online worksheets (for New Year) organization:

RE: A 3 Dollar Birth;

Have a wonderful birthday, Robert! They don't make them like you anymore!

May God send you blessings
On your special day
For all the good that you do
In your own special way

RE: So there is this lady I know

Ken, I almost started to cry reading this story. Oh, my gosh, and just at Christmas! I agree with Snookums, so good she didn't give him the TV set, and then later he tells her!

Wow, you just never know sometimes, when the cyclone will hit. I hope she meets someone better down the road, and she will glad she did not stay with him.

RE: YES, I'm a senior citizen, might as well claim It.

Wow, so true. Too bad whoever wrote is anonymous.

RE: Alas...

As Elk said, he is blessed to have a daughter like you. Thank you for your love.

When people lie in bed all day or night, their sleeping patterns get mixed up, and sometimes they do mistake the time of day. It's hard for us to understand this when we are on a regular schedule, but I have seen/experienced it myself.

I hope you find someone to love you (if you are looking) because you are loving person yourself.

RE: Life

This is not always true, thank goodness, but it happens enough to cause a lot of pain in the world.





"Build Me Up Buttercup" - The Foundations


Why do you build me up Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down and mess me around
And then worst of all you never call, baby
When you say you will but I love you still
I need you more than anyone, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up Buttercup, don't break my heart

"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again
But you're late, I wait around and then
I went to the door, I can't take any more
It's not you, you let me down again

(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

So build me up Buttercup, don't break my heart

You were my toy but I could be the boy you adore
If you'd just let me know
Although you're untrue, I'm attracted to you all the more
Why do I need you so

(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you

RE: do you know what i mean

RE: Have you ever noticed?

(jest kidding) Heres some pizza with raisins.

RE: Have you ever noticed?

Well, John, your dad sounds like he was a lot of fun to be around. My Mom used to call the post man the "mail box" and mispronounce other stuff sometimes, and we would laugh and tease her about it. She also would sometimes talk while she slept in the chair and my brother and I would crack up about it.

Thanx for sharing! :)

RE: Have you ever noticed?

I hope your Dad didn't water the horse instead of going to the john, John. That's not very nice.
