Hahahahahaha, struck a chord with little boy.
robdar is one cool chick, did i ever tell you that?
i mean...it doesn't matter what the potential disaster is...there is always a group of morons that think they are invincible and can weather anything mother nature can throw at them.... is this evolutions way of strengthening the strain?
or is it weeding out the stupid weak?.
i'm not talking about the sick and poor that can't ...but the healthy fools that stay...and die.. it doesn't matter it's a volcano, tsunami, tornado, forest fire, hurricane, typhoon.....or a big toothed carnivorous animal...there is always the moron who demands to stay and face imminent harm and death...instead of using his brain and just temporarily relocating...to a safer locale.

when the wt gets anything this right, it will be a happy day for the governing body.
but then again, the national geographic has the built in advantage of having an editorial content that focuses on reality.
"thousands drowned in the murky brew that was soon contaminated by sewage and industrial waste.
agreed. cheers to national geo for always getting it right and for taking us all over the world and into the heart of the most isolated indigenous tribes.
sept issue is an amazing special on africa...it actually makes you feel hopeful for the future fate of this continent with so many struggles.
i went over and visited my parents today.
my mom broke her hip while we were in hawaii, and i've been mostly house/bed ridden myself since we got home.
so i finally got over there today.. we talked a little about the hurricane, which was on the news she turned off.
i hear you brenda, i spoke w. my mom today too and i couldn't believe she did not mention one thing judgment day related about the hurricane.
i hope you are not planning on moving to hawaii until after nov. 5-6, lil lady.
when people pray does god listen?
does he care?
when prayers are "answered", is that proof of a divine being?
I've never had any of my prayers answered. not a single one. not even that one to satan.
well here they are...i had a horrible time.
seirously, i did.
i was so stressed before the reception i collapsed.
yes, you looked much lovelier than in your headless pic....beautiful! and the cutest kids. lily appears to be 1/2 angel, 1/2 ham...(as in comedian, not the food) and aw, are those freckles i see on brooke?
You can find nice blondes anywhere. I come to rant and rave like a rabid demonized apostate bastard from hell
yes but can you find nice xjw blondes (or brunetts or redheads)... who understand you this well and who can appreciate "rabid demonized apostate bastards from hell", just anywhere? doubt it.
i bought a book that james thomas (great poster, is mia from the board though) called "the power of now".
it's helping me get in touch with a spiritual side again, something i never thought was possible for me as an atheist.
anyways just thought i'd give a shout out for this great book.
yes, where is this mysterious james thomas so many speak of?
PON has the airs of buddhism about it but Tolle does not affiliate himself with any religious or spiritual group, which i particularly appreciate. and i don't get the impression that he is just doing this as a sort of secret infiltration plan of buddism or new ageism onto the skeptical masses either, which may have crossed my mind initially.
I liked the stuff about the ego always fearing death and therefore feeling the need to be constantly defending itself and how it takes so much of our energy and also, learning to be the watcher of our thinking brain, or observing our spontaneous thought patterns.
in appearance, tolle reminds me of a friendly little hobbit.
it's been about two months since i've drank coffee, i quit cold turkey don't ask why........just wanted to say i didn't miss it at all and now i wonder how i ever drank this stuff in the first place!.
back to cranberry juice in the am for me!.
anyone else ever give up something and wonder later how or why they ever drank, ate or smoked it in the first place?.
I quit cold turkey don't ask why
but, why? hehe.
I'll never understand having been slave to the stuff since age eight thanks in part to my grandma's influential diet consisting of coffee and secondhand smoke. oh and that little colombian man, juan valdez. you know the one with the poncho who won't stop bringing it up here on that tiny mule of his.
the media is reporting, at least as of today, that coffee is good for you and is the main source of antioxidant consumption in US diets. i guess that means we dont eat well or something...?
you forgive her for never not once setting foot in your house.. you forgive her for yelling at you almost every day, because if she hadnt yelled at you, if she had been one of those calm-voiced, even-tempered kind of moms, the kind who wasnt enraged by a child who bumped the vacuum into the furniture or one who didnt always scrub out the sink with zud after washing the dishes, then you wouldnt, years later, have been able to recognize the shock and pain in your own daughters eyes when you lose your temper and lash out stupidly, momentarily, always apologetically (after the fact), but never, it seems, for the last time (unfortunately) and without the memory of a childhood filled with longing for an inch of approval from the one person who refused to give it, then you might not have recognized that same desire and need for acknowledgement in your own child and you might not give it to her at every opportunity (as you do, as she deserves).. you forgive her for waiting five days to take you to the doctor when you broke your wrist, because those five days of pain, during which you were encouraged to just stop babying it, will lead to the first of only two apologies she will ever extend to you.
she just couldnt imagine how anyone could break a bone the way you described it happening.
you seek a small measure of revenge by waiting 20 years to tell her how you really broke it.. you forgive her for slapping you when you laughed at her during one of her screaming fits.
very sorry hemp.
ooo...mental hugs for your sore heart...ooo
chrissy
when i was about 16 i had a terrible crush on an older lady (she might have been 30) who was the lovliest person ever.
she had poise, confidence, intelligence, wit, appreciation and culture.
i was just a skinny, shy, geeky kid that she took under her wing.
that's not nice little boy...i'm telling your mother.
