H1N1 Do we know the truth? Will we ever?
Posted:

It is just the flu but this years version has a catchy name. Sars 2 the Sequel... Stop getting sucked into the paranoi. Quit reading the Gloom and Doom papers..
H1N1, Sars, bad tomatoes, bad luncheon meat, Mad Cow, insert next thing newspapers will blow out of proportion.

what do you think of a woman who travels a lot?
Posted:
7/19/2009 4:22:38 AM
I think she likes to waste alot of money for something that lasted 1 week. I don't have to travel I just have to look at every womens profile and see all their travel pics. I only approach ladies that have pic's up of themselves in real life. Just like I don't want to come to your house and see your travel pics. I don't need to see them online either.

Farrah Fawcett's Cancer
Posted:

Every guy wanted her and every Girl wanted to be her.. Her hair was 'The Look' for all teenage girls. Every girl had the Farrah Flip style in high school.. It was because of her that the Red bathing suit look caught on with Baywatch..
Howard Stern also mentioned how dificult it was t deal with her today.. but he is the age that got to see her in her prime. You are both too young to get it.

Travel, or not to travel, that is the question?
Posted:
3/21/2009 4:59:27 AM
All women love to Travel few guys. But every women's profile is looking for someone who travels.. Not going to happen
80% of all travel decisions are made by women
Regardless of :
• who they travel with
• who pays for the trip
• or where they go
A woman is the decision maker.
75% of those who take cultural,
adventure or nature trips are women.
The average adventure traveler is not a 28-year old male, but a 47-year-old female. And she wears a size 12 dress.

All Women love to travel. Few guys do.. Almost every woman's profile says looking for a guy to travel with.. Give it up, Not going to happen .All the resorts I was ever at were packed with women or guys who play for the other team..
72 million US women traveled during the past year. (According to a Travel Industry of America survey 9/2001).
Of those who currently take nature, adventure or cultural trips, 75% are women.

Profile pictures with CHILDREN!!!!
Posted:
1/16/2009 5:07:56 PM
In 1999, approximately 203,900 children were abducted by a family member. Stereotypical stranger abductions accounted for only 115 cases
http://www.stopfamilyabductionsnow.org/report/1_exec_sum_poll.html
All these kids have Facebook with ton's more information. Keep reading the Doom and Gloom newspapers and believing all their hype. You work in computers.. That is hardly in the field to do with child abduction. Let's see posting a picture of a kid then someone will see that and then what circle the town looking for that kid ?.. Please too much effort if they want to abduct they would just approach the kid with some story and take them

From the NY Times. Re:Internet Safety Technical Task Force.. the bogeyman, waiting to jump out of the computer and grab them, is probably not really there.
Good News — Finally! — for Parents
By Lisa Belkin
It can feel like every time we turn around, or read a newspaper (or a parenting blog in a newspaper) there is another bit of data telling us we’re doing it wrong. That the generation we are raising is doomed. That we just aren’t as good as our parents were.
We are feeding them wrong. We aren’t making sure they exercise enough. They spend too much time online, where they are stalked by predators. They are antisocial and would rather text than talk. They have no work ethic. They don’t read. They can’t write. They lie and cheat.
For a year, the Internet Safety Technical Task Force, consisting of dozens of academics and representatives of 30 companies including Facebook, AOL and MySpace, looked at data on incidents of sexual solicitation of children online. They concluded (contrary to the expectations of the 49 state Attorneys General who commissioned their work) that the odds of children and teens being propositioned by predators online — a fear that looms large for parents — was statistically very low; when it happens it is most often to teens who are already at risk because of other problems (substance abuse, family neglect or violence) in their lives.
But the bogeyman, waiting to jump out of the computer and grab them, is probably not really there.

Let's I can do No Picture or a Head shot but nothing in between ... Huh ???
A mandatory Head shot is only good if you can prove that it is a real Head shot of the person whose profile it is.
How can you allow profiles with no picture then ?
It should either be wide open or mandatory Head Shot. No profiles with no picture..

I don't have Sun glasses on.. If you are looking at the site with a teeny monitor then everything appears smaller.. This picture is perfectly fine on other dating sites..
Plus all my other pictures were deleted including a torso close up shot ( it is a few years old so not right to make it my primary)
This doesn't make sense you can't post a profile pic unless it is just a head shot.. But of course you don't have to put up any picture.. If it isn't then it shouldn't matter what picture you put up.
I am ok with a head shot rule but then make it mandatory that a recent Pic must be used. (with a date stamp) This means I could post a picture of myself 20 years ago as long as it is a torso shot ?? Instead of a more recent one like I did. It is better than a blank spot where the picture should be.
Head shot or nothing isn't logical

My main picture does have my head shot.. with my daughters and their faces are whited out.. Now you went and deleted all my pictures and they all have a head shot of me in it what the f @@@'
Who decides to delete pictures.. I think it is because I have a crazy lady who wants me to not have my daughters in my pics even though they are blanked out.. So she reports it..

Which sport is tougher on the body: hockey or soccer?
Posted:
8/12/2008 6:53:54 PM
Hockey you are playing on an unstable surface (ice). Trying to control an object (puck) with a stick and at the same time avoiding 200 pound guys trying to pound you into the boards surrounding this surface
Soccer you are running around on ground and if you go out of the playing surface no problem just keep running.. Although you might get a twisted ankle... Oh ow or maybe a broken finger nail.. horrors

2008 Olympics ~ Can't Wait l August!
Posted:
8/12/2008 6:48:05 PM
Mr. T
but we see EVERY sport imaginable here. Have you ever heard of John McKay and the "Wide World Of Sports"?
Yep used to watch it Of course it hasn't been on since 1998 when it went off the air. Glad to see you are current.. Sorry maybe you are still watching the reruns and thinking it is real.
Maybe I need to speak S L O W for a neanderthal like yourself.. We watch Every sport.. Just like in the Blues Brothers movie Yep we have both kinds of music here Country and Western
A good baseball player only hits the ball about 35% of the time and a couple of people on that side of the field on one team get to run a little bit the others stand around. Plus your team sits on their buts in the dugout
The other 65% of the time nobody on the field or in the dugout do anything except watch him walk back to the dugout. My how exciting let's all stand around and watch two guys play catch with someone in the middle going nope not going to swing at that.. and we get to do that 160 some games a year. We can only dream of a no hitter where nobody does anything but play catch.
Hockey is a real mans sport. A sport you have to play on a unique surface (ice). You have to know how to skate and then play a game on that surface. Baseball, Football etc. are played on stable ground, dead easy.
Going to watch some Ladies Beach Volleyball you enjoy yourself watching Baseball ( The biggest fan base for Baseball are guys who play for the other team and Ladies they both like the Players outfits)..
But you go and have fun there cupcake.

Mr T.. Take a pill.. All she was some athelete's are professional. Call it what you like they get money from the government even if it is just enough to cover their room and board. They are still paid to play a sport (even if it is just for 6 months) . When I play sports no one buys my dinner or hotel room.. They are professionals just not as much as an NBA player or someone from China who does nothing but train all their life.
You would rather watch an MLB game ? Please one game out of 162.. or however many boring games.. 9 innings with maybe 1 inning of excitement.. swing and a miss.. pop up.. yawn..
Instead you get to see a sport you probably only get a chance to see once every 4 years.. Broaden your mind you might enjoy something new
Oh and I saw the Miracle on Ice game and the come back win against Finland live also. Yes it was a great game very emotional
You realize if the coach pulled that kind of training stuff nowadays he would be up on charges. We all have to take a PRS clinic (prevention services) because of coaches like him. Teaching us that we won't using harmfull methods like he did.

Here is a tip for the Soccer Mom's out there quit reading the neggtive newspapers.. Help the sky is falling. Don't let your kids out of your sight without their knee and elbow pads.. There are predators everywhere.. Please most abductions are done by people known to the family..
People are not going to see a picture of your kid on your web site and then track you down just to take your kid.. Too much effort and thought..
Let your kids be kids like we did.. Quit being a Soccer Mom

Actually alot of the second hand smoking statistics is a bunch of politcal baloney anyways. There's a 1000 more chemical pollutants in the air from factories that are far more hazardous than cigarettes are but if they were shut down/quote]
Please.. My cousin is dieing from Lung Cancer.. She has never smoked. Her husband smokes like a f**ng chimney in the house.. She lives way out in the woods in a log cabin they built, no where near any factories..
Oh and she is 39 years old with an 8 year old boy and a 6 year old girl.. Smoking should be banned.. Obviously not interested in a Woman that smokes.

Why do some women just answer the question without asking their own questions. It takes two people to have a conversation. If they weren't interested they wouldn't answer. Or are they expecting the guy to do all the chasing.. If a women doesn't ask any question in return I am gone..

are you happy with the Leafs offseason so far?
Posted:
7/17/2008 7:39:05 PM
"We may be taking a step back to take three steps forward," Leafs general manager Cliff Fletcher said bluntly
But with no significant acquisitions yet for the roster to be delivered to new coach Ron Wilson, Fletcher knows he isn't in a position to oversell optimism, either.
"You are going to see a team that is younger and a team that is going to play a very enthusiastic and aggressive style," Fletcher said. "But we're not kidding anybody. We have a long way to go to become the Detroit Red Wings."

Vindicator.. Little tough for the Sens to beat the Leafs in the playoffs when the Leafs haven't made them for the last 3 years.. The question is when is the last time the Leafs won a playoff series with a healthy Sundin.. First round in 2002..
Ott 13 years straight of playoffs..including 2006 Eastern Conf champs.. Tor still talks about remember that year when we almost made the finals (1993) 15 years ago for heavens sake..
Best Tor could do:
2007 nope
2006 nope
2005 nope
2004 quarter final
2003 out in first round
2002 semi final
2001 quarter final
2000 quarter final
1999 Semi final
1998 nope
1997 nope
1996 out in first round
1995 out in first round
1994 semi final

How do you respond to the how much do you weigh? question?
Posted:
7/11/2008 5:00:18 PM
^^^
Men Women Risk Factor
26.4 to 27.8 25.8 to 27.3 Marginally overweight, some risk
27.8 to 31.1 27.3 to 32.2 Overweight, moderate risk
31.1 to 45.4 32.3 to 44.8 Severe overweight, high risk 45.4 > 44.8 Morbid obesity, very high risk
--- You are 32.3..
Dictionary.com Few: (used with a plural verb) a small number of persons or things: A dozen people volunteered, but few have shown up. (so Less than a dozen pounds)
Also in the 81st percentile.. So only 19% of women your age weigh more than you
Ideal Weights:
Height 5' 10"
Frame Small 132-145
Frame Medium 142-156
Frame Large 152-173
You are also 5' 10 " which is tall for a lady... The Big and Tall category would describe you better on both counts..

What is to stop someone with an issue with me from wrongly reporting it and causing it to be deleted.
