  1. I find it a fascinating contradicition, in that when I take part in the hobby that brought us all here, I spend an amazing, and very intimate, period of time with an intelligent, fun, beautiful woman, but I'm not allowed to leave the encounter with any feelings for her whatsoever, nor expect her to have any for me. Then we come here, to a completely anonymous neutral ground, and suddenly we're supposed to be a kind, caring, compassionate "family," towards people whom we'll never meet. We're expected(in the sense that we're dicks if we don't) to genuinely care about things we would never be allowed to ask our SP about, even though she might be the only person in this community we'll ever meet in person, let alone do "personal" things with. Pretty much the definition of irony.
  2. I don't mind patient, because even though I wasn't sick when I arrived, there was definitely some healing going on. So no Jack Donaghy fans here, who view sex as a competition, and refer to their date/companion/etc. as an opponent?
  3. These people make me wonder what they could possibly be "talking"(texting) about, since they never look up from the damn phone. I thought you'd have to actually do something to have something to talk about.
  4. I've hated windows 7 sice day one. I keep procrastinating about the inevitable - the switch to linux. windows 7 is a joke of an operating system.
  5. On the one hand, I'll always support everyone's right to free speech, even when I don't agree with what they're saying(the real test of whether you believe in freedom or not). On the other hand, the hobby that brought us all here relies heavily on a certain level of discretion. When people start getting too personal, they may not be paying enough heed to that fact. A certain amount of privacy is necessary to maintain discretion, and if that means keeping an impersonal distance, so be it. I'll talk about my dogs or my canoe, but I'm not going to tell anybody my medical history(nothing contagious).
  6. Why should the government pay, using taxpayers' money, for "regime change" in Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Iran, etc. Shouldn't that be their responsibility? I'll take health care over war any day.
  7. I don't get sick very often, and consider it a personal failure when I do, but in addition to Sensual Erin's excellent advice, I want to add that hot and sour soup can cure anything.
  8. Not all cards will give you air miles with a cash advance.
  9. Funny thing about internet communities, one of could drop dead tomorrow and the rest of us would never know it. That person would just vanish without a trace.
  10. It was a nice story, but it reminded me of this time a couple of years ago, when I went to buy a new bird feeder. I picked out a nice one, took it home, and when I went to put it up, I saw a little sticker on it that said something to the effect of "this bird feeder was made my a mentally challenged individual." At first I thought that was nice, then I realized the mentally challenged are better at woodworking than I am.
  11. Burke got a lot of credit for other people's work in his last two jobs. Now we see what he's really got, and so far I'm not impressed, except for the fact that I hate the Leafs more than life itself and want them to lose every game forever.
  12. That's so cool that you were even that close to a lion! I petted a cheetah once, but a cheetah isn't king of the jungle(why an animal who lives on the savannah is called king of the jungle I don't know). Either way, cats rule. Literally. They are our rulers.
