Iraq and Washington

If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000.
The rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.........................Conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington

LORENA BOBBIT UPDATE

In a recent news broadcast, it was announced
that Lorena Bobbitt's sister Louella was arrested for an
alleged attempt to perform the same act on her husband as her
famous sister had done several years ago. Sources reveal the
sister was not as accurate as Lorena.

She
allegedly missed the target and stabbed her husband in the
upper thigh causing severe muscle and tendon damage. The
husband is reported to be in serious, but stable condition,
and Louella has been charged with

RE: A British View on the Iraq Fiasco

Because he lied about it.

RE: A British View on the Iraq Fiasco

Concede that. But what about the out and out lies to the American people about this Iraq thing? He lied, and so did his defense team. They knew they were lieing to us. His problem is that he put his foot in his mouth and now can't take it out. He has to try and save face.

I know people in the service doing their time over there. They, many many of them think this is bull and we shouldn't be there. They don't even want to call Bush their Commander in Chief. Most personel want to be able to be proud of their Commander. This one is an embarrassment to them. I should say, many of them.

I have read letters from many that state their opinions on this war of his. But, they cannot be public. The poor soldiers that want to be heard are hushed.

RE: Just wanted to comment.

Yeah, but I want to know who Kim is? She is the one kicked off. I didn't get to read the thread.

RE: A British View on the Iraq Fiasco

You're Probably right. I can wish can't I? But boy did they try to do it to Bill. Over a damn blow j--.

RE: A British View on the Iraq Fiasco

If this President is so great at his job, then why is his popularity rating doubled in the polls against him? He has become the most hated and untrustworthy President of all time. For the life of me, I cannot understand why he is still in office. What is wrong with the American people? We used to not sit for something like this. We would have impeached him a lot sooner than this at an earlier time.

Dumb? Not too. He knows enough to know that every way we come at him, that all he has to do is veto, veto, veto. And fire all the ones that make a good case against him.

RE: A British View on the Iraq Fiasco

Wasn't it just yesterday that it came to our attention that the CIA in all it's glory had a false informant that was given passage to Germany if he would give them some info? I mean many politicians were aware that the info was a lie. This lie was reported by Colon Powell to us the public as truth for a reason to attack Iraq. This info was the diagrams that were shown all over network tv, depicting the trucks and trailers carrying the wmd's. Colon was told by others not to mention this onfo in his speach. I wish I could remember the name of the guy that knew. The CIA certainly knew. The man they called "cork screw "was the so called informant. He was given his safe passage to Germany and is now under their protection. But, some of our people went there and had him long enough to interrogate him there, where he admitted fully that he lied and they knew it. What about that? Was it a good enough reason to attack a country that was not bothering us?

tatoos and piercings

If I was to ever get one in my face; it would have to be the one right next to my nose,(you know, that little indented place next to the nostril) with a little diamond or ruby.

Hi darlin...

RE: The FIVE DEADLY QUESTIONS ...

Hmmmmmmm, I don't know....if I were to be so insecure as to let those questions and then the answers bother me, then I would think I must not be ready for a relationship.

Aauunnnddd, if I knew an answer could possibly bother me, then why ask it? Dunno, not something I would worry about.

THE LORD'S PRAYER / with a twist===for those who pray

Pretty cool, huh?

THE LORD'S PRAYER / with a twist===for those who pray

Forgive Ann.
Then, I'll forgive you;
And the hate and the sin,
will be Ann's problem -- not yours.
You will have settled the problem
as far as you are concerned.

Oh, you know, you're right.
You always are.
And more than I want revenge,
I want to be right with You . . (sigh).
All right all right .
I forgive her.
There now!

Wonderful!
How do you feel?

Hmmmm. Well, not bad.
Not bad at all!
In fact, I feel pretty great!
You know, I don't think I'll go to bed uptight tonight.
I haven't been getting much rest, you know.

Yeah, I know.
But, you're not through with your prayer are you? Go on.

Oh, all right.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Good! Good! I'll do that.
Just don't put yourself in a place
where you can be tempted.

What do you mean by that?
You know what I mean.

Yeah. I know.
Okay.

Go ahead. Finish your prayer.
For Thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory forever.
Amen.

Do you know what would bring me glory --
What would really make me happy?

No, but I'd like to know.
I want to please you now.
I've really made a mess of things.
I want to truly follow you.
I can see now how great that would be.
So, tell me . . .
How do I make you happy?

YOU just did.

THE LORD'S PRAYER / with a twist===for those who pray

Rather cleverly done.
This is in two parts,

The prayer--
GOD in response.
It is very good.

**********

Our Father Who Art In Heaven.

Yes?

Don't interrupt me. I'm praying.

But -- you called ME!

Called you?
No, I didn't call you.
I'm praying.

Our Father who art in Heaven.

There -- you did it again!

Did what?

Called ME.
You said,
"Our Father who art in Heaven"
Well, here I am.
What's on your mind?

But I didn't mean anything by it.

I was, you know, just saying my prayers for the day.
I always say the Lord's Prayer.
It makes me feel good,
kind of like fulfilling a duty.

Well, all right.
Go on.

Okay, Hallowed be thy name . .

Hold it right there.

What do you mean by that?

By what?

By "Hallowed be thy name"?

It means, it means . . good grief,
I don' t know what it means.
How in the world should I know?
It's just a part of the prayer.
By the way, what does it mean?

It means honored, holy, wonderful.

Hey, that makes sense.
I never thought about what 'hallowed' meant before.
Thanks.
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in Heaven.

Do you really mean that?
Sure, why not?
What are you doing about it?

Doing? Why, nothing, I guess.
I just think it would be kind of neat if you got control,
of everything down here like you have up there.
We're kinda in a mess down here you know.

Yes, I know;
but, have I got control of you?

Well, I go to church.

That isn't what I asked you.
What about your bad temper?
You've really got a problem there, you know.
And then there's the way you spend your money --
all on yourself.
And what about the kind of books you read?

Now hold on just a minute!
Stop picking on me!
I'm just as good as some of the rest of those people at church!

Excuse ME.
I thought you were praying
for my will to be done.
If that is to happen,it will have to start with the ones
who are praying for it.
Like you -- for example.

Oh, all right. I guess I do have some hang-ups.
Now that you mention it,
I could probably name some others.

So could I.

I haven't thought about it very much until now,
but I really would like to cut out some of those things.
I would like to, you know, be really free.

Good.
Now we're getting somewhere.We'll work together -- You and ME.
I'm proud of You.

Look, Lord, if you don't mind,
I need to finish up here.
This is taking a lot longer than it usually does.
Give us this day, our daily bread.

You need to cut out the bread.
You're overweight as it is.

Hey, wait a minute! What is this?
Here I was doing my religious duty,
and all of a sudden you break in
and remind me of all my hang-ups.

Praying is a dangerous thing.
You just might get what you ask for.
Remember,
you called ME -- and here I am.
It's too late to stop now.
Keep praying. ( . pause . . )
Well, go on.

I'm scared to.

Scared? Of what?

I know what you'll say.

Try ME.
Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.

What about Ann?

See? I knew it!
I knew you would bring her up!
Why, L ord, she's told lies about me, spread stories.
She never paid back the money she owes me.
I've sworn to get even with her!

But -- your prayer --
What about your prayer?

I didn't -- mean it.

Well, at least you're honest.
But, it's quite a load carrying around all that bitterness
and resentment isn't it?

Yes, but I'll feel better as soon as I get even with her.
Boy, have I got some plans for her.
She'll wish she had never been born.

No, you won't feel any better.
You'll feel worse.
Revenge isn't sweet.
You know how unhappy you are --
Well, I can change that.

You can? How?

RE: What's the motto you live by?

"Live and let live"

"This too shall pass"

"How important is it anyway?"

Hi sweetie. Want noise??

RE: Looking for a Connection

Yup, came here with the idea "what the hell,couldn't hurt". Made a few friends. I Like many here. Been here for awhile, and am still saying "what the hell, couldn't hurt".
I totally gave up on there being anyone for me here, now or ever. The only way I am going to meet "him", is if he comes up to my door looking for the wrong house.

I keep holding to the idea that someone or ones that I like will connect and stay that way. I have hopes of sharing in their dreams and happiness.

This place can be very sweet at times.

THIS IS TOO SWEET FOR WORDS!!!

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl
across the street. The father, being modern and well-schooled in
handling children, hid his smile behind his hand.

"That's a serious step," he said. "Have you thought it out
completely?"

"Yes," his young son answered. "We can spend one week in my room and
the next in hers. It's right across the street, so I can run home if I
get scared of the dark."

"How about transportation?" the father asked.

"I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles," the little boy
answered. The boy had an answer to every question the father raised.

Finally, in exasperation, his dad asked, "What about babies? When
you're married, you're liable to have babies, you know."

"We've thought about that, too," the little boy replied. "We're not
going to have babies. Every time she lays an egg, I'm going to step on
it!"

RE: Social Sciences

Thank you for the heads up on the book.

I am who I am because of the choices that I made. I have always thought myself to be a strong woman, with a strong mind and spirit.

I never made it to college. Hell,I never even graduated High School. But,*I wasn't pregnant contrary to suggestion.

I never think of those days, not in my conscience mind anyway.

*It just became obvious that it is still there. Lurking in the back of my mind.

I will look forward to finding that book of your suggestion.

RE: Do you think?

You guys are amazing at best. The mind works of some of you almost scare me. The intelligence that must be held by some of you is beyond me. My thoughts are so boring in comparison. All I can say is, "wow".
Kat

RE: Do you think?

Wow,I never gave thought to others doing this.
I sometimes think in broken sentences, mixed between actually seeing the words, and hearing them. Sometimes in color with black and white combined. At times I see brightness around the words. Sometimes when thinking, I hear another voice,but not with my ears, distant and stern, and matter of fact.
Patterns seem to emerge sometimes, becoming abstract with mathematical visions, where numbers and shapes move in perspective and turn within my minds eye, placing themselves in correct placement. I often have had answers come to me from out of nowhere, when I wasn't even thinking about the problem. While in a thought process, words that I rarely use attach to my thought. And if a word stumps me, it has shown itself to me visually.
This is cool to actually say it.

RE: Consider this...

All this in the name of "black gold". Money at it ugliest. Black slimy crude, more important than all those precious lives.

RE: age?? or the values one has??

Jeeze....why are the threads that are eons old popping up?

RE: age?? or the values one has??

When you find that one you are hoping for... Please let me know. I have been single for a very long time as well. I don't even date anyone. And that is a terrible loss for me as well as some lucky guy. There are many good catches out there. It's the meeting that seems to be impossible these days.
I so wish that I could find a man of like mind, not willing to settle for less. I still have few good years left.
Good luck honey.

RE: Peachy is going to be serious

I understand it completely. I experienced something similar. I now see my world as a modem of amazement, beauty, wonderment and love of all things. I now see through the eyes as a newborn."I once was blind, but now I see."
