Heres where I get philosophical.... The last part of your letter, Jan, about you dont believe opposites attract... ? They do attract.. like magnets are attracted to the opposite poles. And you know why? Because we are attracted to what is missing in ourselves! And here`s where we got to be very careful about relinquishing parts of ourselves in a relationship... like changing the way we dress, giving up certain behaviours, our likes and dislikes, etc to please that other person.... Because, you know why? When we eventually have nothing of ourselves left, we are now the "other person", the part they are, with nothing of our original self left.... they dont like seeing themselves reflected back at them... and then BANG!End of relationship. So, moral of my story is, never ever try and change another person.
No, we already won the lotteries... we just interested in what you all out there would do if YOU win it!
Thats why we dont have to go out to work anymore... we got all day to sit here on our yachts in the med playing on our computers, while we wait for the jet to be serviced, and our heli to bring in the fresh champagne...
Somewhere along the line I seem to have also heard a theory that she was a HE!
¨You think so? Leaving a trail of white footprints... leading right to your front door..... wait for it, they gonna find you.... and then you going to have to make a court appearance!
Oh yes, forgot to mention..... when you want to converse about nothing....? you just click the emoticons, and they say it all for you.... lekker hey? 
What exactly is it you are wanting to know Wedward?
KEWL ... jewel... !! You dont even have to do the real thing.... just go buy the outfit, with "Kick-Box Champion" embroidered everywhere, in neon glow-in-the-dark stitching... stop every now and again, especially before entering dark alleys, and high-kick the street lamp, or an imaginary head on shoulders, whip-lash your arms around you, do a few spins with one leg at shoulder height, Kung-Fu style... shrug your shoulders, hitch your pants, pat your crotch, and then swagger down the dark alley. Also, do wear steel capped boots (the type workmen wear), so you can just scrape the yowling cats out your way, and kick over the dustbins on your way. And watch the muggers run!
Sorry, I just couldnt resist that.
The Notebook.....but make sure you got a full box of tissues to mop up the tears. A truly wonderful love story.
Just done that! Hope he checks in and reads the forum, before heading out to his fire.....!!!!!
How else we going to learn.... the easiest way (?) Plus sometimes we havent even thought about a question yet, and someone else asks it, and we say "Hey, yes, I wonder what sort of answer that will get?".... and so then we got the answers, and we dont even have to think about asking them... yet...till more questions on the topic surface....
I think I`m like my birthsign... Taurus the bull (bull in the china shop?)
No one is allowed to use my name in vain.... Wedward, I never asked Stratis his opinion of you, never, never, ever. I got my own opinion of you, sure, but I (unless I`m into sleepwalking now and log-on here thru sheer habit... in which case you cant blame me because it wasnt realy me, just the body going thru habitual motions while my brain was dreaming dreams of sublime bliss somewhere else).. I have no reason whatsoever to ask anyone else their opinion of you. And WHERE, Stratis, did I ask this? You into sleep-walking too maybe?
So are you all going to vote for me? But then again, maybe I wont volunteer for the job, cause I have found that anything to do with "committees" is a total waste of time... Have you ever known a committee to make a rational decision? Plus, if I had that job, I wouldnt have time to sit here writing replies to all these world shattering speculations you all bring up all the time. So, sorry, I know you all depend on my superior judgement in these matters on the site, so I will not leave you. I am the loyal sort. Let the idiots take care of world peace.
That we still got air we can actually breath?
Collective peace seems impossible.... So maybe we got to concentrate on Personal peace?
NO WAY JOSE! But if it comes looking for me.... kick-boxing works VERY WELL. How is Aerobics, Modern Dancing, Tap Dancing, etc. going to help when you confronted by a knife-wielding maniac in a dark alley? Okay, I know nice ladies my age shouldnt be walking down dark alleys, but sometimes it happens, by accident, and you only realise, too late, that you in a dark alley, tripping over dust-bins and yeowling cats, stumbling around in the dark trying to aim for the light at the end of the tunnel... and then this figure looms out of the gloom and says "give me your handbag".... THAT is when you glad you been practicing kicking heads off necks!
Take quality time for yourself, concentrate on yourself, groom yourself..... Then... when Opportunity meets Preparation, you will have Success.. or something like that anyway! Theres also something called th ABC of life, but it eludes me at the moment... its all so clichéd.
WOW!!! There`s FIVE perfect women on this site!!!!!!!! And we just elected Wedward as our publicity agent. Because he is just so sweet and nice.
This is obviously a "guy thing"... only they seem to know what they saying to each other....
Kickboxing is good too... plus, if you lucky, you get to use it in real life too!

RE: car share??
You so trusting and believing in the betterment of mankind! No-one likes sharing their cars.... I tried that 20yrs ago, didnt work then, wont work now. Everyone is too busy, with time schedules, need their "unwind" time on the way to or from work, etc. Who wants to stop off at places not on their own personal agenda? And listen to yabbering of passengers.There is a country considering slow lanes for single occupants of cars... and only multiple occupants per car may use fast lanes. They are also considering Toll charges ... high per one person, reducing as occupants increase..... Only problem then is restricting the amount of people jammed into the vehicle. Its a 3rd world country.... where they also carry chickens in crates on their car-roofs, and cows in their utility vehicles..... but at least they trying to reduce global warming.
