RE: Lies, and our Odd Relationship With The Truth

BTW

My above comments really highlight an irony and in no way should make you think I am bitter or twisted.

Anyway continuing on this theme there are truths that are witheld from "we the people" for quite practical reasons:

How do you think the world would react if a genuine icon of faith returned to dwell among us and they were not of an ethnicity acceptable to the flock?

What if some unequivical discovery rendered a mainstream religion irrelevant or even worse impossible?

Who could tell that truth? Who would be brave enough?....because in doing so we may destroy some civilisations, norms values and possibly sacrifice a planet to war in the name of hoesty and nobility

What a burden

RE: *SONG OF THE DAY*

Maris Piper, Maris Piper, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
For that Mash potato strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Maris Piper?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many plate have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, My Maris Piper?
Or just a cold and starchy lovely work of art?

RE: WHAT R U INTO?

Beautiful hazel mash making eyes, inviting new potato lips and a dreamy, creamy voluptuous body.




Oh and she must be a Princess and think I'm funny.......

How did I do?

RE: Need advice, opinions and your .02 ...

This is a simplified version of some training I give to Managers in England with similar situations to deal with:

Three Step Turnaround

Step1 Why

Call a meeting with the person concerned. (Be armed with all the historical facts when you do.) The timeline of events leading up to the meeting are there to illustrate "why we are here" not as ammunition for a confrontation. Stick to the unarguable truth of the matter.

Step2 Expectations

Clearly state what your expectations are generally from your team and then how he fits in to this. Use pictorial imagery and check that there is a clear understanding. I suggest you qualify this by inviting a summary of these expectations from him before moving on to Step3.

Step3 Committment

Emphasise the importance of getting it right for the sake of you all. Share with him areas where he can over achieve his tasks. Identify what he is good at and build committment around extending this behaviour he demonstrates in executing that task to all areas of his work. His committment is vital. Be clear. Do not stack the dice against him show him how you will support him to achieve what is required.


Put like this if failure results you have been thorough and a Team Player to the end

Hope this helps

RE: Partner Poaching.....

There are a few people out there that, for whatever the reason, do not wish their fellow people well. They want stuff purely because someonelse has it. Normally this is some sort of need for empowerment.

Pure coincidence I'm sure; I have had alot of interest from CSerettes AFTER I declared my love for Princess. Sure i'm flattered and friends are always welcome. Generally I suspect the " i would be better for you thing" works hand in hand with this type of behaviour or maybe just haven't read profile and just gone for the smile

For the record I am so happy for all the couples on here it gives us all hope for the future. I wish you all well in whatever you do.

I personally do not subscribe to the "friend in need theory" I believe that a truer measure in this context is when you HAVE and do not need. Who of your circles could cope with your promotion bigger house and in this context someone becoming a couple/engaged/ marriage in a single group? Most relationships exist on a plateau where this issue is never tested. Have you ever asked yourself this?

Think about it

RE: How to feed love ....

Oh the chocolate as well? Now you're talking! You are so ambushed!

RE: True Love????

That was a whole new level of WRONG!!!!!!

RE: How to feed love ....

Good name!....now if we could only find you a "Mint Slice"........

I reckon it's all about respect communication sharing and honesty. For instance: Saturday's "I love you" can transalate as ...but I don't like your perfume and it makes me sick, I can't tell you just because I can't.

Now you've got a drama:

Washing up together on Sunday after lunch you are asked to do something fairly reasonable like "kiss me you fool" you shun away she thinks you are not attracted to her; conflict ensues: love breaks down.

We often make grand assumptions about our partners needs without ever KNOWING. So in my book those four things will help you keep your love but are not exclusive.





Be Cool

RE: Are the men afraid of the beautiful women?
