I love the old Hollywood classic movies like Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Wethering Heights, It happened one night, etc., etc, just love the classics!!!!! Nothing better!
A Marine stationed in Afghanistan receives a letter from his girlfriend back home. It read as follows:
Dear Ricky,
I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is just too great. I must admit that I have cheated on you twice, since you've been gone, and it's not fair to either of us. I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to you.
Love, Becky
The Marine, with hurt feelings, asked his fellow Marines for any snapshots they could spare of their girlfriends, sisters, ex-girlfriends, aunts, cousins etc. In addition to the picture of Becky, Ricky included all the other pictures of the pretty gals he had collected from his buddies.
There were 57 photos in that envelope... along with this note:
Dear Becky,
I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who you are. Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me.
A Few Facts About Men 1. Men like to barbecue. Men will cook if danger is involved.
2. Men who have pierced ears are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.
3. Marrying a divorced man is ecologically responsible. In a world where there are more women than men, it pays to recycle.
4. Men are very confident people. Guys are so confident that when they watch sports on television, they think that if they concentrate they can help their team.
5. Men like phones with lots of buttons. It makes them feel important.
6. Men love to be the first to read the newspaper in the morning. Not being the first is upsetting to their psyches.
7. All men are afraid of eyelash curlers. I sleep with one under my pillow, instead of a gun.
8. A good place to meet a man is at the dry cleaner. These men usually have jobs and bathe.
9. All men hate to hear "We need to talk about our relationship." These seven words strike fear in the heart of even General Schwarzkopf.
10. Men are sensitive in strange ways. If a man has built a fire and the last log does not burn, he will take it personally.
11. Men have an easier time buying bathing suits. Women have two types: depressing and more depressing. Men have two types: nerdy and not nerdy.
12. Men have higher body temperatures than women. If your heating goes out in winter, I recommend sleeping next to a man. Men are like portable heaters that snore.
13. Women take clothing much more seriously than men. I've never seen a man walk into a party and say "Oh, my God, I'm so embarrassed; get me out of here. There's another man wearing a black tuxedo."
14. Most men hate to shop. That's why the men's department is usually on the first floor of a department store, two inches from the door.
15. If a man prepares dinner for you and the salad contains three or more types of lettuce, he is serious.
16. Male menopause is a lot more fun than female menopause. With female menopause you gain weight and get hot flashes. Male menopause - you get to date young girls and drive motorcycles.
17. No man is charming all of the time. Even Cary Grant is on record saying he wished he could be Cary Grant.
18. When four or more men get together, they talk about sports.
19. When four or more women get together, they talk about men.
20. Men are less sentimental than women. No man has ever seen the movie THE WAY WE WERE twice, voluntarily.
21. Most women are introspective: "Am I in love? Am I emotionally and creatively fulfilled?" Most men are outrospective: "Did my team win? How's my car?"
22. If a man says, "I'll call you," and he doesn't, he didn't forget... he didn't lose your number... he didn't die. He just didn't want to call you.
23. Getting rid of a man without hurting his masculinity is a problem. "Get out" and "I never want to see you again" might sound like a challenge. If you want to get rid of a man, I suggest saying, "I love you... I want to marry you... I want to have your children." Sometimes they leave skid marks.
24. Men are self-confident because they grow up identifying with super-heroes. Women have bad self-images because they grow up identifying with Barbie.
25. Men forget everything; women remember everything.
26. That's why men need instant replays in sports. They've already forgotten what happened
What you don't know, wont hurt you, but this one it sure is worth knowing. I used to work for an envelope company. Our plant supervisor used to work in the Chicago plant and told us not to lick the envelopes because they would often find dead rats at the bottom of the glue barrel (after thousands of envelopes had been glued and shipped).
I work in a factory and we have 2 employees who used to work in an envelope factory. They told me that when the machine jams up, they use whatever water is handy to thin out the glue. This includes water that they just mopped the floor with. Since then, I've avoided licking envelopes!
A woman was working in a post office in California. One day she licked the envelopes and postage stamps instead of using a sponge. That very day the lady cut her tongue on the envelope.
A week later, she noticed an abnormal swelling of her tongue. She went to the doctor, but they found nothing wrong. Her tongue was not sore or anything.
A couple of days later, her tongue started to swell more, and it began to get so sore, that she could not eat. She went back to the hospital, and demanded something be done. The doctor took an x-ray of her tongue and noticed a lump. He prepared her for minor surgery. When the doctor cut her tongue open, a live cockroach crawled out! There were roach eggs on the seal of the envelope. The egg was able to hatch inside of her tongue, because of her saliva. It was warm and moist. This is a true story reported on CNN.
Osama Bin Laden himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game. Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line of coded message: 370HSSV-0773H
Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.
No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to the NSA.
With no clue as to its meaning they eventually asked Britain's MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply: "Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."
A couple had been married 15 years. One afternoon they were working in the garden together. As the wife was bending over pulling weeds, the husband said, "Hey, honey, you're getting fat. Your butt is getting huge. I bet it's as big as the gas grill now."
The husband, feeling he needed to prove his point, got a yardstick, measured the grill, and then measured his wife's butt. "Yes," he said, "just what I thought, just about the same size." The wife got very incensed and decided to let him do the gardening alone. She went inside and didn't speak to her husband the rest of the day.
That evening, when they went to bed, the husband cuddled up to his wife, and said, "How about it, honey? How about a little action?" the wife rolled over and turned her back to him, giving him the cold shoulder.
"What's the matter?" he asked
To which she replied, "You don't think I'm going to fire up this big gas grill for one little weenie, do you?"
If you are receptive and willing you can find love anywhere and without even looking. Stop looking so hard and open your eyes to all the possibilities.....love is where you may least expect it.
It would depend on what context he was saying you are different. If it is subtle differences then that is OK, but if it is something profound then that would be an issue. Profound differences are something that the two people would need to discuss in depth and see if they could work past those differences. Some differences are not able to be overcome such as a partner doesn't want to marry and you do, doesn't want children you do...etc, etc.
You can't MAKE anyone fall in love with you because everyone has free will. You can do things to "entice" someone and make yourself look more appealing, but if you are only doing this to impress the other person and it's not who you truly are then you are lying to both yourself and your partner, deception never works.
I am totally for the use of genetic cloning but only in the realm of organ, tissue, nerve replacements...to clone a human is to close to playing God.
As I stated before I do believe that there needs to be one governing body at the healm of cloning otherwise it will very likely fall into the wrong hands.
No it wouldn't neccessarily have to the the "government", and I certainly wouldnt think that "W" would set up a panel of experts when his administration all but shut down the R & D cloning projects.
I would think the government would want to be on top of this issue, but putting together a panel of "experts" that would govern the practice. The government would almost certainly be involved so that this practice wouldn't as you say "fall into the wrong hands".
In your opinion Chele, who should be responsible for overseeing human cloning, if not the government than who? We can't assume that just by leaving it into the hands of science that practice of cloning would be safe.
People naturally want to share their good news and happiness, but I think 3 weeks is a bit premature to name it "undying love". In my experience this is more than likely the initial stages of a crush/lust and not the real thing. People might be optomistic in their feelings or just a bit emotionally immature, who knows.
Yes, I believe if I found someone on here I wouldn't be blurting it out to the high heavens until I was absolutely 100% sure, and even then I'd be hesitant. Because I've seen what happens in the forums when people come on and start gushing about their feelings, some things are better left private..JMO
AAAAAAWWWWWWWW..Ice that is just too sweet!!!!! You are making me all weepy and mushy today!!! Just beautiful and reminds me of appreciating things in my life a little bit more. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, very intense!!!!!!
I am open to the possibility of anything. I would love to be settled down and stable with a person but I have no idea whether that is actually going to happen or not, whatever will be will be.
