RE: whats happened to the vids stuff ?

top of the screen, right hand side, tab marked videos, I didn't realize they had seperated it and posted my vid 3 times!

RE: Thankyou for the "1"

Well obviously her mother never taught her that if you can't say anything nice, then you shouldn't say anything at all!

Although I have to say... you boys over 41 have been pretty brutal with me as well, the boys 26 to 32 are much nicer

What Happens when you google your user ID?

I was just reading a thread that reminded me of this, I just found this out last week and it's really scary. Google your user ID and you'll find your threads, profile etc out there. I wasn't very happy when I discovered this, how do you feel?

RE: What Music don’t you like!

I posted a vid of "new big band" see if you like it any better

Didn't realize...

I didn't notice that CS had made a seperate Video tab and that videos are no longer posted under Forum... So I apologize to you all for posting my video 3 times!!!

Agree to disagree... is it possible?

I was jaunting you, see if you/someone else would bite the bait.

You see, you’re not disagreeing with my opinion of women in debate, but with an insulting fallacy I created to get you to because you are a woman.

It’s stuff like that which you do in a debate to lead people in/away in certain directions etc: all in the good name of winning debate.

Well done for not going off the wall. That’s what I mean, being level-headed in debate.

I agree fools can turn it all into nonsense, non-academic debate. Idiots!

Even Homer said: ‘By the will of Zeus due order in debate!’ But not even Zeus could keep it.[/quote

Agree to disagree... is it possible?

Agree to disagree... is it possible?

I grew up in a household where lively debate was encouraged (it had to be or my father and I would have killed each other lol) and I really enjoy a good debate and there is always something you can learn from an opposing point of view, I just don't understand why people get so angry and defensive?

I appreciate all of your input, some very good points and sorry I didn't respond to you all sooner, had to get away for a little while, major headache! Anyway feeling better now... so thank you all

Agree to disagree... is it possible?

Why is it so difficult for people with opposing points of view to have a rational discussion without it turning into name calling, rude remarks and immature behaviour?

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

Thank you!

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

Look at his last response... wasting your breath!

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

Very mature response. Have a nice evening.

RE: What about something Romantic?

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

I left to get away from ethnocentric narrow minded people who are so blinded by patriotism that rather then admit error they defend anything and everything, usually to the detriment of the country.

RE: What about something Romantic?

Break out the wax, back stubble is not nice!

RE: Go with the Flow?

"no matter where you’re going as long as you don’t go down. "


Ok I'm gonna take the low road here and to be honest I can't believe that Rusty or Lago didn't beat me to it.... Whats wrong with "going down"

RE: What about something Romantic?

Rusty... that picture was the best form of birth control I have ever seen!!!!!!

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

Well I left behind 25 years of taxes, social security benefits, etc. so I believe it is still my issue. I was under the impression that on an international forum all view points were welcome for discussion. Maybe if you are not open to discussion from people who live in different countries you should limit yourself to an all american forum

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

I lived in America for 40 years, but now choose to live somewhere else, so this is an American point of view.

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

It's just so big and so distant what say do you really have? Every year there is a reporter who unearths ridiculous spending in the govt. ... The Navy spending 600 dollars for a wrench... but I've never heard of anything being done about it. When you are on a small scale it's easier to demand accountability.

I had a great experience when I was in college, thanks to a very cool political science professor who had been very active in the 60's

He overheard a group of us complaining about the university putting up the parking fees and there didn't seem to be anything in the budget to justify this raise. So he basically told us to quit whinging and do something about it.

We canvassed the school and got as many people as possible to not buy their parking permit but park in the lots anyway and get a citation, then we all called the court to get a court appointment to fight the citation, it only took 3 days and 476 citations before the courts contacted the school and demanded that they do something about it. The parking fees were dropped to the previous dollar amount!

Could you imagine trying to do something like that on a large scale?

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

Until they realize that the bigger something is the less accountability there is, little chance for improvement. The IDEA of federal taxes is good... everyone pays in and then it gets redistributed where it is most needed. but the reality of it is that rich areas stay rich, poor areas stay poor and in that whole trickle down thing there is a lot less when it gets to the bottom then what there was at the top and there is no accountability.

If money stayed on a local level it's much easier for the people to monitor and much easier to see where the money goes.

RE: When will these boneheads ever learn?

I used to get so caught up in this stuff, had high blood pressure, felt like I was banging my head on a brick wall made a lot of money, paid a lot of taxes, and realized I hated my life in a consumer society. Now I live on a little island in the mediterranean, my blood pressure is down to normal, I work but not to much and live on 1/10th of the income I used to just exist on. I love my life.

RE: Possessive people and Jealousy

.. and if that's how they are... I'm not in that relationship! But you're right, there are a lot of people out there that play those stupid games!

RE: Possessive people and Jealousy

I'm sorry but I just don't understand the concept of jealousy. Trust for me is one of the most important aspects of a relationship and without it there is no relationship. I'm a very monogamous person and when I'm with someone I am totally with them, if they have doubts or insecurity's about this the relationship probably won't work.

On the other side, I don't get jealous. If there is someone else my partner would rather be with then please, go be with them... I don't want someone who wants someone else.

RE: What are the five worst things about being single?
