Loneliness

i wasn't sure i was ready for it, but i did it anyway...i put out a personal ad.

i've gotten a few responses, but nothing seems promising yet.

i get the feeling that internet dating is more about quantity than quality, but i think that's what i need right now.

B_D,

The Flipper's got together on eHarmony, and recommend it highly. Ask them about it.

P.S. Good luck on your date tonight. We want a full disclosure later, dude!

Can You Imagine the Outcry

by XJW4EVR in

if the republicans had done this.

sadly, nary a peep from the liberal controlled msm.. dems throttle debate.

house dems turn out the lights but gop keeps talking.

An interesting thought:

Bush was an oil man.

Cheney was an oil man

During their regime, oil profits are at an all time high.

Coincidence? Yeah, the Republicans have got our welfare in mind.

well, i have a date tonight.

predictably, i'm pretty nervous.

does anyone have advice as far as what are good conversation ice breakers and subjects that work well for date talk.

B_D,

It sounds like you are good to go! Knock her dead (figuratively speaking).

Men or Women Seeking a Relationship - What Qualities Do You Look For ?

by flipper in

many of us have had our ups and downs in relationships.

that being said, from what i've noticed people tend to put more effort and emphasis in picking a career or employment and being choosy about that - than putting the time into meeting and getting to know what kind of person they would like to have a relationship with.

so many people leave it up to random selection - not much thought - then they wonder down the road why they are getting burned !

JK666

Kindness, tenderness, a genuine caring for others.

Of course, that "spark" needs to be there too!

It is also important that she doesn't take herself too seriously, as in life you have to roll with the punches.

She also needs to be fun. Boring people suck.

401K vs University Education

by tresdecu in

here's something i thought about this morning that made me mad.

the wts is so anti-education now, saying the "end is so close" "deep in the last days" etc (tm) ...why have they not come down on having retirement plans?

i know many elders that work for big companies (younger guys in their 40s), they are planning for their future by investing etc....what!?

JK666

I wish I could have stayed at a company with a great retirement plan! Unfortunately, I was with a company that downsized (thank you, Jack Welsh, you bastard!) I would have life made in the shade with my investments. If it wasn't for the Organization's goadings, I would have gone on when younger, and got my degree in Mechanical Engineering. My apprenticeship as a Toolmaker would have given me my first year toward the degree.

A 401K is a great thing. Education is a great thing. Both together are the best. I am going to have to really bump up saving to have a decent retirement.

But never naysay the education. It was as much about esteem building as it was about making a better income.

The most inappropriate remarks from Jehovahs Witnesses

i have a few which still either anger me, make me sad or just make me grateful that i am no longer one of them.

1 - "well, everyone is going to die anyway, so if it at armageddon then ce la vie" 2 - "the disater today at the world trade centre is sad, but exciting" 3 - (an elder) "when armageddon happens, i want to be at a window, watching it all".

sick, sick, sick!
