I did not see this but want to say thanks to Chae and Jack. thanks for the compliment. I return the compliment and want to compliment "Intrigued" for being nice to me and "meanwhileinbali" for reading my mini-story. ;-}
I hadn't looked till just now. did you look at that link with the rest of the list? I was kinda surprised....it had other countries I would not have guessed,,,but it is not something I have ever thought about....I never would have thought it to be a actual list but these days you can find a list on everything it seems. ;-}
Malta came in first place, followed by Swaziland in Southern Africa, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, then Argentina. there was a list of 20. I think the USA was 46, I have no idea what Pakistan was. It was interesting in how they came up with the numbers,,,I looked at three different sites and they were all the same as far as I could see.
this link has a slide show and was kinda cool. the other was divided with man and woman...but here is the slideshow link with top 20 laziest countries.
You are very fortunate to have such a lovely family, and I can also understand that you would want the best for your children. I hope that your plans work out the way is good for your family and the people in your life. ;-}
Really Jack? When you say "family" do you have a wife and children or do you mean your parents as well? How's it going over there these days? I hope not to challenging. ;-}
What is your name now?? or maybe I mean is it a family name? Why change it now?? By International do you mean a name that is more common?? Like one that would have a "name day" associated with it? Tom,,,Tomas? or Alexander? Alex?
Then I would say that it is that time to really search your Heart and your Head and decide what you will say or what questions you have. It is much harder to think of them in the heat of the moment. Good Luck to you and your future. ;-}
I understand more than you could guess. Be grateful you at least had some form of communication at all. They tell me time will heal but I believe that though time passes some scars will stay with us longer than others. Maybe there will be more conversation in the future. If it is so then make sure that if you have something still to say that you say it, if you do not get that opportunity then I suggest you feel the loss in your Heart and do not hide from it. It is something that can hurt future relations if it is not resolved in your Head and Heart. I myself must do the same in my life, more than once and sometimes with no communication at all. But in time if you do allow yourself to resolve and let those things go then you will find a new life that is like a new page that you had no idea ever existed. I hope those words will help somehow. ;-}
Sorry is very hard to say sometimes, but usually it can make life in the long run much better for both people. At the same time it can still be hard. Have you talked with him?
You know. It is a good question. and the fact that most will not agree on what is what when it comes to race and/or culture it seems we are once again going through some very big changes. If someone asked me about a person in the USA I think that though some families go back very far and may have stayed somewhat close to their own culture and dare I say "race" it is not so easy as it used to be as people are classified differently than they used to be. I have mentioned it before and it is always changing when I am asked to state my "race", I was "white" I have been "Caucasian" I have been "Non-Hispanic" ,,Last time I was "White/Arab" So I can not answer for the UK...but just as a person living here 52 years it sure seems like things are always changing. I wonder if we will ever simply be "Human" I think that would be pretty cool. Not to lose any heritage or lineage....but if all of a sudden there were 15 more planets and each had its own race than I wonder if we would just be considered "Human". I did read some of what people answered about being celtic and other designations. Either way, it is a good question and not so easily answered to satisfaction of all concerned it would seem.
Sounds tasty! When I made certain changes in my food or liquid intake I simply did it to benefit my own personal needs, I would never expect others to follow my personal choices. I will sometimes have a coke if I am out with someone having a meal,(very rare) The diet stuff though seems to have some property that I sense and just can't stand it, funny how our bodies react to things differently as individuals. I had a client that drank 4 liters of diet soda a day. It was like he was absorbed by it...I think it was drinking him instead! LOL.
I cant stand those artificial sweeteners, I can immediately tell if they get anywhere near me. I have never drank or eaten diet foods. As far as Soda I stopped drinking that about 10 years ago and about 2 years ago stopped drinking things like Gatorade and just stuck to water. If I am being real good then I fix fresh juice from fruits and vegetables. I guess the Coffee Lattes are the one thing that is my downfall...but it is not so bad considering all the things out there. ;-}
OMG!!!!!! I just found yet another guitar that I did not know existed!! Thank You KB! but the clothes still seem a bit tight.. But that is not so shocking..NEXT!!!!!!!!!! ;-}
Wow, I don't even know where to start. I doubt I would say except you seem to be trying to be understanding but I have a feeling that you may be deafened to some of the messages that are probably screaming in your ear. Firstly, you will make the decision no matter what is said here by anyone so I will start with the part about the man being "Separated" did I read that correctly?? Why is he not divorced. ok, that would be the first thing I would be dealing with. Second is, what is the daughter's attitude towards you and does she really want to see her father in the first place? The part about him spending the time and night there is unacceptable in my opinion..especially if it is so one sided. I am sure you Love this man very much but from what I have read it sounds like you are being "discounted" in more than one instance. I suggest that you and he sit down and have a serious discussion about what is and what you truly want. If you feel comfortable with what is going on then I doubt you would have posted. So, listen to your Heart and Head. Be comfortable in what you are. And definitely speak your peace. good luck to you. Niko.
I feel compelled to apologize for someone to say such a remark to you. Your Poem is very important. And it is heard by your dear Mother, she is a part of you and you know in your Heart that you must put those last words in place. If you feel comfortable maybe you will post it in the poetry section or even the Blogs,,or here is you wish, I think that many would be more then happy to lend a hand. Please pay no attention to those that may bring more sorrrow.
The clip is very chopped up,,it might have been vaguely interesting to see what was clipped out of the 45 second snippet of a guy hardly finishing sentences to who knows what. Anyway,, it is very hard to respond to the clip as it says so little. But to the title of the thread, "Should White Men be Extincted" So. first you have the word "Should"? it is usually a parental ego state that is produced when that word appears. So right off it is a matter of what someone thinks "Should" or "Shouldn't" be or be enacted. I say enacted or engaged because you use the word "Extincted" which is future tense versus "Extinct" which would have been past tense. As in "should they be extinct"? should they be gone?....but your title asks if White men Should be extincted. It is asking if a group of people "should" be removed..or lost to this world intentionally. I would say of course not. On the other hand I think that any one single descriptor be it white, black or otherwise very likely could or probably will diminish over time because of the interaction of different groups and the acceptance in this world that it is ok to procreate with people outside of one's own group. But once again I submit that a intentional extinction of any group is very strange and possibly criminal in the thought process to intentionally cause the disappearance of a group of people. Now if the question was meant to ask if it has already happened I would say no, diminished? probably. but I do not think it is intentional on a large scale anyway.
Not Much, I just try to stay busy or sleep. Maybe play some music if I am up to it. Stay warm, if I am fortunate sometimes I will hear from someone.....but most people are busy.
Agreed. It reads as a poem that has a dark cast as people have become disconnected from the actual experience and shock of Killing. I did not write it but It does read that way to me, I am lead to believe that the poet is exposing the easibility of war and killing. In the multitude of games and tv shows "Killing" has become a pastime. If not for real than at least in practice.
This is funny!! when you hear the beginning of the song you hear the Raven and My Cat is sitting to the side in her tall black chair..when the bird sound comes across the computer speakers her eyes get intense and her body is ready to attack the laptop!
You see the world through your cynical eyes You're a troubled young man I can tell You've got it all in the palm of your hand But your hand's wet with sweat and your head needs a rest
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it Why must you be such an angry young man When your future looks quite bright to me How can there be such a sinister plan That could hide such a lamb, such a caring young man
You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it Get up, get back on your feet You're the one they can't beat and you know it Come on, let's see what you've got Just take your best shot and don't blow it
You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're killing yourself if you don't believe it Get up, get back on your feet You're the one they can't beat and you know it Come on, let's see what you've got Just take your best shot and don't blow it
For me it is not in my blood. I am just not wired like that. Just me and My Lady and I am her man, if I was not single. I have a question for you though, I see you are married and your wife and you are looking for another woman. SO, what if your wife said that three is a good number but asked you to accept another "Man" into your marriage? Would you be all for that or would you be like WTF?? In other words, even now, or down the road what happens when and if your wife says that was ok, now let's try it this way.
In my experience it seems that mostly the women I have been involved with want to be listened to and not have the advice, also the part about "tests" , yes!! lots of tests and wanting to be and do things that are not ok for me, only for them. And I screw that "test" thing up because I don't expect it and get frustrated with the double standard, once it is in full test mode I might as well just jump off the nearest bridge. So I am single most of the time. That is the crazy life I have, and to top it off evidently everything is all my fault. I always think I have met someone that I am hearing correctly but nope..it always ends in silence and sadness. That's all I got.
Now if there's a smile on my face it's only there tryin' to fool the public but when it comes down to foolin' you; Now honey, that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression give you the wrong impression Really I'm sad I'm sadder than sad You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad Like a clown I pretend to be glad
Now there's some sad things known to man but ain't too much sadder than the tears of a clown when there's no one around
Now if I appear to be carefree it's only to camouflage my sadness In order to keep my pride I try to cover the hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you that I've been happy since you decided to go Oh, I need you so I'm hurt and I want you to know
Now there's some sad things known to man but ain't too much sadder than the tears of a clown when there's no one around
Just like Pagliacci did I try to keep my sadness hid Smiling in the public eye But in my lonely room I cry the tears of a clown when there's no one around
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do Two can be as bad as one It's the loneliest number since the number one
No is the saddest experience you'll ever know Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know `Cause one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do One is the loneliest number, worse than two
It's just no good anymore since she went away Now I spend my time just making rhymes of yesterday
One is the loneliest, number one is the loneliest Number one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do One is the loneliest, one is the loneliest One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do It's just no good anymore since she went away (Number) One is the loneliest (Number) One is the loneliest (Number) One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do (Number) One is the loneliest (Number) One is the loneliest (Number) One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
How can people be so heartless How can people be so cruel Easy to be hard, easy to be cold
How can people have no feelings How can they ignore their friends Easy to be proud, easy to say no
Especially people who care about strangers Who care about evil and social injustice Do you only care about bleeding crowd How about a needing friend, I need a friend
How can people be so heartless You know I'm hung up on you Easy to be proud, easy to say no
Especially people who care about strangers Who care about evil and social injustice Do you only care about bleeding crowd How about a needing friend, we all need a friend
How can people be so heartless How can people be so cruel Easy to be proud, easy to say no Easy to be cold, easy to say no Come, on, easy to give in, easy to say no Easy to be cold, easy to say no Much too easy to say no
USA has so many pockets of different cultures that never even see the next and see things in different eyes. And then there are the ones that seem to really make a big splash so to speak...they want to be seen by all...they want control and not just over them selves but over the small people and the people all over the world. I doubt if anyone cares for those kind of people...but they do exist and because they are so driven by so many different things they are probably seen like a brighter star and even represent the "whole" even if there is a million others that live in those small pockets or too busy doing what they were taught to even answer questions on forum boards. I wonder if I will ever see things like the Grand Canyon....or go Diving in some of the warmer waters in this big populated Country. ;-}
