RE: A Worldwide Depression

I think the only major difference will be that we can not start a war and operate on credit to get us out of debt. What propelled us into the first depression was the creation of a "credit" system where we wanted to help European countries out of debt, which dug us into a hole. The banks and big businesses had givien so much that they could not recover form the looses. What pulled us out was the second world war. . . it created jobs and a market place for all those goods to be shipped to.

We haven't really repeated history, we have continued it. With all of us having credit cards and all sorts of loans that we need to pay, we have continued to dig the hole that our grandparents and their parents put into motion.

Moral: Credit companies are evil. All well, all we can really do is plow on through the tough times and hope to come out a-o-k in the end.

Wishing those joy and happiness . . .

What ever that may be. I hope everyone has a good christmas and New Years. Everyone take care and blessed be.

Don't forget to pay it forward.

RE: A boring thread (blog) but then you don't have to read it.

Hope your knee heals up soon. I had a friend who had a similar operation a while ago and he hobbled around on the darn thing for ever.

Take care and enjoy your holidays,

RE: memo from the conch republic 3

Tell me about it. In my department, my manager was informed that we either start adding to the profitability of the store or we could be cut out of it. in other words . . . . could be losing my job, but for now everything is fine - just need to bring people into the store and get ride of those products that do nothing for us. Hope it works. I really want to be able to pay off my student loans.

Right now I think those of us that are still able to pay some of our bills and keep our noses out of the water are helping to barely keep the economy up and running. But just barely. humph.

Take care everyone.

Hi, welcome to the cyber-club.

RE: Will inter-racial relationships work out well in the future? :)

Yep, have a couple of cousins that are in an inter-racial relationship and they have been married for 10 plus years ( both couples).

RE: Are women naturally manipulative or is the feminist movement of the world teaching them to be?

Who use our fathers and all the other slobbering idiots as examples. We are really looking for the one that doesn't need a leash. still looking . . . . .

RE: No good single women anymore looking for a decent guy ?

thought it was chung . . . . maybe not.

Just have to hang in there. We have all been ambushed by players and have felt discouraged. Take care.

A love poems contest w/ a twist. Here's what some people entered. :)

RE: ok ok.ok....let's do this again..i love this thread....R U TAKEN OR ARE YOU NOT????

Not , but waiting . . . . .

A love poems contest w/ a twist. Here's what some people entered. :)

The rules:These are entries to a competition asking for a rhyme with the most romantic first line but least romantic second line...
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss but I only slept with you, cause I was pissed

Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you. But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

Of loving beauty you float with grace If only you could hide your face

I thought that I could love no other Until, that is, I met your brother

Kind, intelligent, loving and hot This describes everything you are not

I want to feel your sweet embrace But don't take that paper bag off of your face

I love your smile, your face, and your eyes- Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

Every time I see your face I wish I were in outer space

My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife: Marrying you screwed up my life

I see your face when I am dreaming That's why I always wake up screaming

My love you take my breath away What have you stepped in, to smell this way

My feelings for you no words can tell Except for maybe "go to hell"

What inspired this amorous rhyme? Two parts vodka, one part lime!

RE: Boooooooo-

Isn't that what the tail would be for.

RE: Which of the folowing TV chanells do you choose to watch?

Yeah, I like HGTV, BRAVO, and the usual CBS ABC AND NBC. But I watch FOX every so often.

RE: Choice of locations for the East Coast gathering

Wierd, I wonder why this keeps happening? Maybe try just posting the poll, then post a reply. Maybe that will work.

RE: Vote for your choice of gathering locations:

Okay, saw the poll options . . . . none of the above, too darn far away. Have fun any way.

RE: Vote for your choice of gathering locations:

MINDFFUL WAZ UP U?

I am also posting to see the options.

RE: anyone into hockey?

I have a few friends that played soccer in Europe and I used to play volleyball in Junior High. It was really fun. I can get behind a sport like hockey, soccer, and volleyball more then football. I was in pep-band and hated every second of it, but is was required.

RE: A date which will live in infamy

Probably so, other wise Pearl Harbors defense would have been better. Much like another attack that comes to mind. But not going to go into it.

RE: Guys help

My mom's dog had cancer this past year. We let it get too far, we felt, before we put her down. The problem was that though she was in pain, she was w/ her human (my mom) and alive w/ her pack (our family including other dogs). We percevied this as a sign that she wasn't ready. The problem w/ that is that we are assinging human thoughts to a dog that does not have the same level of irrational thoughts that we have. Consider the quality of life that your dog is going to have. Is it better for him or is it more for you that he is here?

I don't want to sound harsh, but the only reason that animals and people are kept alive longer then need be is because of our own selfish reasons. We are not considering what might be best for that other person. I understand the guilt that we feel by making such decisions, but we must make them and live w/ them.

Good luck, and take care.

RE: Guys are playing games

Been there, only the guy showed . . . . about 20 minutes late. I am such a stickler for timing and all. I have friends that I never make plans w/ at all because they can't be trusted to show up on time or at all.

RE: anyone into hockey?

Like hockey, though I have never really seen a full game. I am more into volleyball and soccer.

RE: Do you feel that guys are just playing games with us women?

Hey, have to keep those power puffs and such under control. Besides, its fun shotting someone in the eye w/ chocolate and topping it off w/ a little cream. hilarity commence . . .

RE: Do you feel that guys are just playing games with us women?

Only if hot pokers are involved. . . . . . . . .





oops, typed that aloud didn't I?

RE: Do you feel that guys are just playing games with us women?

Naugh, it's not hard . . . . . just have to know how to point them out in a crowd. . . . and have a ready supply of honey, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce.

RE: Boooooooo-

Just don't see the fasination w/ thses darn things. The only use they have is for milking. They're no good for balance . . . . like a tail. I'd rather have one of those.

RE: what is your?

Greatest fear . . . . suffocation.

Greatest hope . . . . That those who need help, in all forms, never have to go through the beaurocratic tape that my mom is going through now. Govt. = BS ers.

RE: Do you feel that guys are just playing games with us women?

I kind a like the tarts myself.

How about some more blonde jokes . . . . .

BLONDE JOKES
Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking, and one blonde says to the other, 'Which do you think is farther away... Florida or the moon?'
The other blonde turns and says 'Helloooooooooo, can you see Florida ?????'

CAR TROUBLE
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died.
After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly.
She says, 'What's the story?'
He replies, 'Just crap in the carburetor'
She asks, 'How often do I have to do that?'

SPEEDING TICKET
A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely if he could see her license.
She replied in a huff, 'I wish you guys would get your act together. Just yesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to show it to you!'

RIVER WALK
There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees another blonde on the opposite bank 'Yoo-hoo!' she shouts, 'How can I get to the other side?'
The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts back, 'You ARE on the other side.'

AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE
A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said that her body hurt wherever she touched it.
'Impossible!' says the doctor. 'Show me.'
The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left shoulder and screamed, then she pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee and screamed; likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made her scream.
The doctor said, 'You're not really a redhead, are you?
'Well, no' she said, 'I'm actually a blonde.'
'I thought so,' the doctor said. 'Your finger is broken'

KNITTING
A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway. Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the wheel was knitting!
Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, 'PULL OVER!'
'NO!' the blonde yelled back, 'IT'S A SCARF!'

BLONDE ON THE SUN
A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day. The Russian said, 'We were the first in space!'
The American said, 'We were the first on the moon!'
The Blonde said, 'So what? We're going to be the first on the sun!'
The Russian and the American looked at each other and shook their heads. 'You can't land on the sun, you idiot! You'll burn up!' said the Russian.
To which the Blonde replied, 'We're not stupid, you know. We're going at night!'

IN A VACUUM
A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. It was her turn. She rolled the dice and she landed on Science & Nature. Her question was, 'If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?'
She thought for a time and then asked, 'Is it on or off?'

FINALLY, THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!
A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, 'Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?'
'HELLLOOOOOOO......,' answered the blonde.
'They're watch dogs


Take care all ~Tip
