RE: Opera...do you love or hate it?

Love it!!! I have seen Rigoletto, Un Ballo In Maschera, Aida in Verona (where else except Egypt?!), Tosca, to name but a few.

Not into the real heavy-duty opera but Tosca is my favourite!!

Also love many of Shakespeare's plays..... Much Ado About Nothing, Midsummer Night's Dream, Othello and The Merchant of Venice (my fave, Portia is the ultimate heroine).

Bellisimo!!

RE: jealousy, a sign of love or something else?

Nope, it shows balance and maturity, in my view. Jealousy is NOT a sign of love, however one wants to colour it, its a sign of insecurity....... pure and simple!

RE: Wtz more imp in ones lyf..,1.Dreams.or 2.GF..wt If I cant balance both,which 1 shud I lose???

Well, I'm glad about that coz in all honesty, I didn't understand a word of what you were asking....

Just me, it would seem, though..... long week, I guess (and its only piggin' Tues?!!)

RE: Sarkozy bans burqa wearing.

Indeed!! As sagacious as always, Conrad.... I take my hat off to you.

RE: CS World

Thank you, MB.... how very kind of you! Good to see you back, safe and sound, BTW....

RE: CS World

Of course, posts will be contradictory at times. Often there is the awareness that this is a PUBLIC Forums ("goldfish bowl") and there is also an intention to appear popular, i.e. nice, caring, etc. Sometimes that is forgotten, and egos take over with the need to express oneself and be listened to, taken notice off, regardless of the approach felt needed to do so. Human beings are fickle creatures in RL and its no different here, hence the sycophancy abound at times.....

That said, yes, I do believe a community exists here. Over time we get to know others and are able to determine honesty and sincerity from the "created" personas, are we not?

I am happy to say that I have met some very genuine folk on this site with whom I still remain in contact with and I am fortunate they are friends I regard as very special indeed.

And I love each and every one of them.... so I have gained more than I have lost. Therefore, I still maintain it was better to have come across this site than not........

Besides, I met the most wonderful man.....

(And, yes.... you CAN be selective!).

RE: Anyone Suffer from HEMORRHOIDS ?

Mmmmm......

RE: WILL YOU LOVE OR MARRY A FOREIGNER MAN OR WOMAN?

It was a joke!! Ohhh God.....!!

I am a gift to just ONE and that's fine by me....

RE: I'll miss everybody...kinda (not a goodbye thread)

Ohh nooo.... seems I have missed the boat, SF!!

Still, at least, when you get back here.....

Have a good season, my friend.... rooting for ya. WIN?!!!!

RE: Anyone Suffer from HEMORRHOIDS ?

Yeah, and one of the more interesting threads around at the moment, it would seem?!

RE: WILL YOU LOVE OR MARRY A FOREIGNER MAN OR WOMAN?

Yes, once seen never forgotten, eh?!



Its okay, we all do it from time to time.....

RE: WILL YOU LOVE OR MARRY A FOREIGNER MAN OR WOMAN?

What ya telling me for?! Surely your post should've been directed at Writer1966?

RE: Food obsession

Perhaps the mistake you are making is to DENY yourself the foods you enjoy? They become the "Forbidden Fruit" ('scuse the pun) and all the more attractive because you can't have them.

Having a little of what you enjoy from time to time is not a bad thing, i.e. if I fancy a nice bottle of wine, I only allow myself if I WALK to the shop, not drive. Then I deserve it, I have earned it (and I have burned off the calories). Otherwise, I cannot justify my having it....? I have a take-away occasionally as a treat because I have been so good looking after myself. I don't "diet", I have an "eating regime".... something different entirely.

That said, what works for me may not work for you.... good luck!!

RE: WILL YOU LOVE OR MARRY A FOREIGNER MAN OR WOMAN?

I'm sorry, my friend, but you are addressing the wrong person! Religion plays pretty much no part in my life. I was simply expressing an opinion and, therefore, I do not need preaching to.

Thank you.

RE: WILL YOU LOVE OR MARRY A FOREIGNER MAN OR WOMAN?

I don't have much of a problem with it, suffice to say I would gladly be with or marry the person, not prepared to be married to their religion, no.

Our Hero??!!

If you thought the future was looking a little bleak, don't despair, folks.... help is at hand!!

I have no bias one way or the other, I just thought this was amusing, is all....



(I apologise in advance for the wee bit of advertising at the end, can't find a link without it).

Enjoy!!

RE: This Is So Sad, Please Think Of Them And Their Families

Yes, with each and every act of this kind they just reinforce their brutality, hatred and barbarism.....

My thoughts certainly do go to their nearest and dearest.....

RE: Somebody told me that when a couple becomes old then they become....

It sounds as though you believe one gets traded for another, i.e. intimacy gets traded for friendship? Why is that?!

A good, solid relationship should incorporate BOTH.... surely?

AND...... not just when a couple are old. I don't believe long standing relationships have been successful purely on one element alone.....

RE: Should I tell her he contacts other women?

Nice to see you again this fine morning, Morgan. I am very well, thanks. Couldn't be happier, in fact. Hope all is well with you too.

RE: Should I tell her he contacts other women?

I can't advise you whether to tell her or not but I'm sorry to say, chances are you'll be damned if you do and damned if you don't!! Its likely to be a no-win situation for you, I'm afraid.

Good luck with what you decide.......

RE: I'm baaaaaaaaaaaack

RE: THE LAND OF RISING SUN(BIAFRA) HERE WE COME

Indeed!! It takes all sorts, doesn't it? We even have a member who's primary pic is that of a dog turd.......

Ya see, I thought it was a site for adults too?!! Perhaps "member" was, in fact, the correct word to use?!!

RE: THE LAND OF RISING SUN(BIAFRA) HERE WE COME

Ohhh God....!!!

BTW.... Biafra "Land of the Rising Sun"??!! I think you'll find that's JAPAN?!!

Dohhh....

I would whisk my fella off to enjoy the delights of Italy!! Mi passione.... mi amore!!

RE: Einsteins MC squared and other important stuff

I don't, as a rule, drink coffee. I am, of course, a tea drinker. But when I have a coffee, I expect it to be a good one. Dowe Egberts for everyday, Blue Mountain for something a little special.
