  Heck! I had to get out of bed to go potty! Now, I'm up. I guess that I might as well drink a beer and put on some music. I don't have to go to work until 6 p.m., that is if I don't call in again. I have got to get pass this burn out thingy. I might be bringing in the new year looking for a new job!

  Happy New Years everyone!

  Honour Killings - Who are we to talk?

  by Spectrum in

  in the west according to police it is a fact that you are more likely to be killed by a person known to you than a complete stranger and i imagine good number will be carried out by a family member.

  how much different is this from what the west has labeled honour killings?

  as far as i'm concerned they are the same abomination, we just use clever language to impress upon people how in the west we are so much more civilised.

  But nowadays do we get any honour killings in the West at all, of the type where parents kill their children or their lovers?

  Jehovah's Witnesses will let their children die by refusing to let them get a blood transfusion. Isn't that the same as an "honor killing"? The elders will be there to watch with the parents.

  as many of you know, i am a fader.

  the last meeting i went to was the memorial a few years ago.

  tonight my dad (not a dub, never been a dub, he is a baptist) called for one of our infrequent hello, goodbyes.

  I don't drink that often. Maybe every other month and then still not much, but I do smoke. I started at the age of 43 or so. Ain't that a trip! Anyway, I didn't buy much for myself even when I didn't smoke. I do need to buy another car, since I gave mine to the twins. It doesn't have to be new, just something to get me here and there. But, I am not going to stop smoking to buy the car. I think that I will just start putting the money away and start looking for a car.

  I'm happy for you and your renewed interest in your once loved profession!

  Is it considered an "honor killing" when a person takes a bomb on to a bus filled with people that he doesn't know and blows them up? Just wondering? We have mass murderers here, but it's usually sexually related; unless it's someone going postal. I feel either way it's bad. I think the witnesses don't blame themselves when a parent, child, or loved one commits suicide because of being shunned. I think that some of them might actually feel "honored". What do you think?
