UFOS and ET
Posted: 11/21/2009 5:41:52 PM
Well, the US government obviously thinks they exist, because it passed a law ( Title 14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal Regulations, adopted on 16 July 1969) wherein contact between U.S. citizens and extra-terrestrials or their vehicles is strictly illegal. Anyone guilty of such contact automatically becomes a wanted criminal to be jailed for one year and fined U.S. $5,000...

FEMALE CONDOMS
Posted: 11/19/2009 3:11:09 PM
Once again, it places the responsibility and control in the hands of the woman. Personally, I wouldn't have had it any other way (having always used 3 forms of contraception simultaneously), but do wonder when some sort of real responsibility and control is going go be recongised by men in order to stop them becoming fathers of unwanted children, as opposed to bickering over what's most "uncomfortable..."

christmas decorations
Posted: 11/19/2009 10:43:37 AM
I'm not a lover of Christmas decs, apart from wreaths, lots of special candles, baskets of poinsettias and the odd tasteful 'ornament,' and these are only in evidence from a week before Christmas.

I think my theme, this year, is going to be similar to yours - Scrooge!

school first or relationship first?
Posted: 11/18/2009 4:23:58 PM
I'd go to school first. There's plenty of time for a relationship later, and if you miss out on your degree you could end up resentful a few years down the line.

Yes, it may be that women are more likely to be in contact with children.

What do i do when a customer refuses to pay???? please help :-)
Posted: 11/17/2009 4:25:19 PM
Your customer bought windows, measured by him, which didn't fit. You made him aware of the discrepancy in size and suggested that he either replace them or make certain rectifications. He instructed you to fit the windows regardless of the fact that they did not fit the original specifications, and to carry out a rectification by laying a course of brick and plaster to cover up the problem. You carried out his instructions then billed him.

In the meanwhile, his wife decided she didn't like the changes made to their original plans, nor did she like the door they had chosen and, without consulting you, or expressing any form of dissatisfacion, decided to replace both the windows and door, then refused to pay your bill.

On the face of it, it appears that you carried out work for your customer and he has no valid excuse for not paying your bill, as all changes to the specifications were made by him and carried out by you under his instructions.

If I were you, I would pay a visit to CAB with a view to obtaining advice on issuing a Letter of Demand and/or a Summons through the Small Claims Court.

Good luck!

cheating, how prevalent is it?
Posted: 11/17/2009 12:06:44 PM
Far better to lie about not being in a relationship and cheat, than admit to being in a relationship and cheat. That way there's the 'bonus' of not only hurting the person you're cheating on (if they find out), but also the person you're cheating with (when they find out).

Seriously, though, of course it's wrong and the women are pretty stupid to bring it into the workplace.

Should a man have a say regarding Abortion?
Posted: 11/17/2009 5:06:44 AM


As i have said before its a womans body and no one but her as the right over it ....its a womans choice,



True so long as the man has a disclaimer to sign that frees himself from all responsibilty if she goes ahead with the birth.


How can he be freed of responsibility when he's responsible for creating a life?

Whether the woman chooses to continue with the pregnancy or terminate it, is a massive responsiblity in and of itself. Why would a man think that because the ultimate decision is hers he has no responsibility regarding the outcome?

Emails with EX
Posted: 11/17/2009 4:45:41 AM

Geez dont people stay friends with ex girl/boy friends these days? In 38 years of marriage my late husband and I stayed in touch with folks we dated before we married. One even became a god parent to our son. And I am friends with men I dated after my husband died.


Yes they do, and when I was in a relationship I still had contact with male friends. However, the OP stated that his GF and her ex were emailing one another up to 3 times a day, and that seems that's a bit excessive.

Takes two to make a baby, therefore both should have a say in it.


Yes it takes two to make a baby, but only one faces the prospect of carrying carry deep emotional scars for the rest of their life should they have a termination. The decision, therefore, has to be with the woman.

Emails with EX
Posted: 11/16/2009 3:28:31 PM
Sadly, when we go snooping (and I'm guessing this is the case here?) the problem is what to do with the information we find, and this only the snoopee can decide...

At a guess, I would say they're still interested in one another and you now have no alternative but to have a 'show down' with her or burn yourself up thinking about it.

Good luck.

I think you're perhaps making too big a deal of it. You don't have to bring it up until you're with someone you want to sleep with.

The other side of WTF was he thinking?
Posted: 11/16/2009 6:13:16 AM


Knock yerself out...believe as you will...that's exactly what she told me. She was very upfront in texts and emails about a lot of things, and told me right off the bat that she found me "very handsome" and that I "smelled good."

Whatever, toots.

Of course you are going to have to find some way to dismiss this as unbelievable for whatever reasons and you are of course free to do so.


I didn't realise that she'd actually told you all this in her email, as you didn't say this in your OP.

In light of this, I could comment on her behaviour, however

"Knock yerself out, " and "Whatever, toots"

tells me that you're a total jerk and I shan't waste my time.

The Silent Treatment
Posted: 11/16/2009 3:38:05 AM
The silent treatment is a form of passive aggression and is an unhealthy way of trying to get your needs met.

I was involved with someone who used to regularly practise this sort of childish behaviour for days on end. The last time he did it I silently packed my bags and left!

People like him have to be ignored - totally. Block him if he continues to contact you. I doubt that reporting him will be effective as it sounds as though he's adept at reinventing himself with a new profile.

Having a younger child

My mother was in her 40s when I was 8 and my father was in his 50s. I have friends around your age with children as old as your son and I think you'll find this isn't that unusual.

I don't see why you should put this in your profile, OP, unless you want to.

I can't imagine the purpose of using this as a means to scare someone off; after all, there are far easier, mature ways to end a short relationship. What if is backfires and makes the other person even more interested and ends up hurting them?

It sounds pretty juvenile and ridiculous to me.

Women the superior sex
Posted: 11/9/2009 4:04:19 PM
Both sexes are born with weaknesses and strengths that can be enhanced or taken advantage of by the opposite sex. The secret of harmony, IMO, is when this is recognised and both work together to help one another reach their true potential as human beings and embrace the differences.

Well I appreciate all your replies, it's just frustrating when someone leaves you hanging and doesn't tell you straight up what they thought.


There are times, OP, when actions speak louder than words, and her actions are not those of a woman who's interested in you.


...I suppose the best thing to do would be to just forget about it. I don't think I could contiue to be friends with this individual, not after I was ditched completely and lied to.


This would be the most dignified way for you to deal with it, and you really don't need this woman chipping away at your confidence with her thoughtless behaviour.

Good luck

I think their fame brings their faults into the public eye and possibly exacerbates whatever weaknesses they may have.

Fireworks Landing Zones

I agree that the sale of fireworks to the general public should be banned. Far too many people around who simply don't care where they let the things off and the potential damage they can cause.

Look at what happened to the poor woman who had one posted through her letterbox. Burned to death in her own home, leaving her 17 year old son without a mother.

There is a crazy theory going around (CERN community) that the future is hijacking it's own past so that we are unable to discover if the higgs particle is real. It has to do with the conservation of information or something of that sort. Lets wait and see what happens!

Could the Large Hadron Collider be held back by its own future?
Posted: 11/6/2009 7:56:58 AM
Sounds far-fetched, but interesting all the same:-

"Forget the far-fetched belief that it will create a black hole, two distinguished physicists have gone even further claiming nature itself is stopping the troubled £4.4billion project from getting off the ground.

In a theory reminiscent of the time travelling film Back to the Future, the theoretical physicists Holger Nielsen, from Denmark, and Masao Ninomiya, from Japan, have concluded that its discoveries could be so "abhorrent to nature" that they are coming back to stop their own creation.

They have outlined their thoughts in a series of papers with titles like “Test of Effect From Future in Large Hadron Collider: a Proposal” and “Search for Future Influence From LHC.”

The pair's hypothesis centres around the Higgs Boson, a mysterious tiny particle and building block of life that it is hoped the LHC will discover.

They have come up with a theory that it will "ripple backward through time" and stop the collider before it could make one, like a time traveler who goes back in time to kill his grandfather."
