although i didn't watch hockey that much, it's really weird not having hockey on tv this time of year.. how and when do you think this lock out in hockey will end?.
It's called the law of "supply and demand." If you could nail a 100 MPH slapshot or skate like greased lighting and handle a puck like it was glued to your stick, you'd be paid millions.
Thats fine but don't whine about how hard done by you are. Besides if it wasn't for the JW's, I know that when I was younger and with a little bit of practice I could have been good enough to make the NHL, so I don't think they have any special talents.

The problem is that you have billionares fighting millionares. Most professional players have lost touch with reality. Why should I feel sorry for a guy that in one year is making 100 times as much as I am? Most average working Canadians can't even aford to buy a ticket to watch a NHL hockey game and we are supposed to feel sorry for them? It is about time they live in the real world.

I think these season is lost. By the sound of it neither side wants to move on the salary cap issue. They are not even close to an agreement and until that issue is agreed there will be no settlement. In order to save the season they have to come up with an agreement by the end of January. If not then there will be no incentive to get back to the barganing table again till July or August. Then who knows what will happen then.

company fires all employees who smoke.
I think this one will be overturned being "Unconstitutional".

i think i know what to do but just want to know if i am doing the right thing.
Ya know if it's meant to be you two will connect in a few years from now.
You are right. I feel we have connected but the time is wrong. Even though she hasn't said it, it is time to give her space and let her get herself together.

Good suggestions from all of you. It is not as I have not talked all of this over with her. I have and I thought we had some understanding and I have tried to be patient. She tells me not to worry that she does care about me but it is also that I have been used in the past myself and have trouble with trust. What I am saying is I don't know if she is not being straight with me. All I would like is the truth. I am wondering if she playing this up a bit and using this as an excuse. My heart says No, but my brian says Yes. I am trying to be objestive and that is why I am askng others opinion on how long should one give it. I was wondering if I have not being patient enough but I just don't want to put all this effort into a relationship that is gong no where.
i well recall the husband of my sister-law telling us the most earth shattering news.
this was around 1973 and 1975 fever was starting to take over many individuals.
with breathless excitement he told us the follow story.
Yeah it was another JW urban myth. When I was young I recall my sister repeating a similar story about it happening to a friend of hers.

Thanks everyone for their advise. Most of what your saying I have already thought about. I am not ready to jump into a long term relationship but I would like to see it progress. Seems like there is always obstacles in our way i.e. daughter or her health. I am always straight forward with my feelings and maybe I told her too much already and she is a bit gun shy. I feel there is more to how she feels then what she is telling me. I have talked it out and if she thinks it best to not see me too much, I think I at least deserve that courtesy.
"Perhaps you could invite the Mother and her daughter out for some fun times: movies, ice cream, dinner. Just to get to know her and for her to get to know you. Nothing rushed. Take it very slow, and I am sure with honest and open communication between you and your friend, that things can be worked out. It will just take time."
Robdar my dear friend, I have tried to take her and her daughter out for dinner. The first night I met her daughter it started off on all wrong and went from bad to worse. I don't know if I said something although seems like it didn't matter what I said she has all men prejudged the same. By me offering to take them out it came across to the daughter as "trying to buy her". She has this preconceived idea that all men want is one thing. I said to my lady friend that if thats all I wanted I would not stick around and put up with all the grief. I know how she feels about us, as she said it many times and so has her cousen has told me much the same thing. I guess it is time I back off and let her make the next move. If its meant to be it will be. Relationships can be so complicated.

this is for those of you who sent me a private message saying you dont believe me, your letting your old jw traits come out, you know, not believing things when the facts stare you in the face unless it comes from the org.
maybee you should go back and re join them.. to confirm what happened .
i was at a john denver concert in the uk many years ago, he asked all catholics to stand up, after he got them seated he did the same with church of england, then the same with a couple of other religions, after he asked all jw's to stand up he announced that the concert would not go on untill they had all left and he then left the stage.
And then a very good friend told us
Again a very good indication of an urban legend. Its always a friend of a friend, never a first person account of the events.

a lot of posters on this board have expressed the opinion that religion is the reason for many wars.
some have even implied that if religion was "banned" the number of wars would be reduced.
pole .
Not religion on its own although they are the ones that have taught intolerance of others beliefs. I think even if religion is not around there still would be hate and distrust of others because of their differences. We as a human race have to all do our share to teach our children that there are difference between all of us and that we must live together accepting others differences. Can we all do that? Can we stop the distrust between others national and religious differences? That is the question that humans still have not answered to this day.
