How much weight should polls be given? Posted: 11/7/2009 4:54:07 AM
Polls are meaningless and only reflect the results intended by the sponsor. They are designed to miss-inform and lead people in a plan direction away from the facts. Follow the money and you will find the poll results before the poll is taken. Has anyone ever been called and taken part in a poll? I never have. If a poll result was taken from 500 responses….how many calls were made to find 500 people who answered the phone and the poll questions and what area of the country did that simple ????????????? The Nielsen Rating only polls 25,000 homes to determine the TV rating for over 307,000,000 people. The results are based on revenue……the shows that stay are the ones sponsors are willing to pay the most for to advertise.

men disapproving of toys as addition in lovemaking Posted: 11/9/2008 7:58:35 AM
Hey......................I see the bedroom as a big playground. The more toys the better........does not mean you need to play with them all the time......sometimes you won't play with them at all.......sometimes it's fun to just watch my lady playing. And........if my lady wants to play without me........have fun.......I'll be home later to play some more.......with or without toys.

Anger in a relationship, or in life in general... Posted: 11/9/2008 5:19:33 AM
No.......I don't do anger.......learned a long time ago.......it serves no purpose…..do get frustrated over ignorance at times……but not angry It’s all a matter of how we define ourselves…….and choosing at any given time….if our reactions are who we want to be…..are we reacting out of fear or out of love….and choosing who we are at that given time. One basic premise is that…….we are never angry……for the reason we believe. How anger erupts on the surface at any given time only relates back to unresolved issues from our past which is the real reason we are angry.

Taxing the rich guys - would it really work? Posted: 11/5/2008 4:16:48 PM
I thought the Economic Stimulus checks were supposed to kick start the economy. Practically everyone I know simply used it to pay down excessive debt. They didn't spend any of it in any way that would stimulate anything. Like I said……..that’s the 6th grade version as to why Trickle Down does not work…...and the “Debt Factor” was included. But…it does not change the premise that…..business do not invest in products or services that they cannot sell and make a profit from. The Economic Stimulus was a Band-Aid on a bleeding heart….….and demonstrates how destructive excessive debt can be on our economy……..including our large national debt. We must stop pork spending……stop investing in the war machine……and start investing in America. America needs to invest in herself right now…….roads, bridges, hospitals, schools, education, alterative energies, power plants, our environment…….and become non-dependent on foreign oil.….by investing in alterative fuels and investing in America…..than we will not be financing the terrorists who hate us…..and we will not need to fight wars to protect oil interest. AND……..the best part is that……it creates new business…….creates jobs……and allows Americans to pay off most of that debt…….and spent more……creating more jobs…….and the cycle is kick started.

Taxing the rich guys - would it really work? Posted: 11/4/2008 2:47:22 AM
Ok lets see……I’m a big rich business……manufacturing widgets for people to buy. The economy takes a dump and nobody can afford to……. or is buying the widgets I have overflowing in my warehouses now. So I lay off workers………in order to keep my loses down and stop making so many widgets. Now…..the Government gives me a big tax break making me and my business richer………so I can invest and create more jobs. BUT……..nobody can afford my widgets now…….that I’m making and are not buying them. So as a business owner.....Why would I hire workers.....create more jobs and increase productivity of my widgets.....if I can’t sell what I have in my inventory. NOW.....if the average person is given tax breaks.....and has more money to spend.....they buy more widgets. The widget manufacture.....is now happy with joy.....I’m selling all my widgets. I better start making more widgets.....hire more people.....create more jobs.....people are spending and buying more. The cycle is kicked started and everyone is Happy That’s the 6th grade version

Would you leave the dating sites if you got in a serious relationship? Posted: 10/31/2008 2:57:05 AM
OK.....I'll go a BIG YES, also......I would have no need to be fishing when I have found that one special lady. For me the forums are interesting and a fun way to pass the time when I'm home alone. But........I would much more rather.........spent time with my SO/GF in real time........than sitting in front of computer

What is the right war? Posted: 10/25/2008 5:48:40 AM
A Right war.......is a war not fought for profit.......but fought for freedom Look at Viet Nam and every war since including Iraq and Afghanistan......follow the money trail.......who is making money........and you will learn the real reason why we are fighting these wars Politicians.......weapon manufactures.......oil companies.......big business.......the rich.......all are making money and getting richer off the blood of the American people. I love our country......I’m a decorated Viet Nam veteran And I like the concept of "Peace over war"........and “Sharing the Wealth“....... in our country.

Why is it we go back to blokes that treat us bad? Posted: 10/19/2008 8:50:46 AM
We lack of self-worth/self-respect/self-esteem and don't believe we're worth better One factor that has not come up here is.................any person who mistreats/harms/abuses another person..........is the one who also lacks self-worth/self-respect/self-esteem for themselves. They abuse others in order to feel better about themselves..........to try and feel superior over others. The bad boys/girls are attractive to us......because they have learned how to say everything you need and want to hear them say........how wonderful/beautiful/desirable/sexy/loving/caring you are........they have learned how to push all your emotional buttons to get you excided and thinking........at last I've found my love. Once they have control over you.........once they have had their fill of sex and fun with you......they lose any respect for you and they move on to their next conquest. But.....are always willing to return for more sex and fun......if your willing to give it up to them......over and over again.......without ever holding them responsible for their own behavior. The way I see it.....it's the abuser who has the biggest self-worth/self-respect/self-esteem issues.........not the person who is being deceived by them.

untrue profiles Posted: 10/18/2008 4:58:21 AM
Hey, the world revolves around FALSE ADVERTISING. In regards to on-line dating profiles, buyer beware..... Great comment...................Better Together and so true.......we are taught to mislead to get what we want in life, look what's going on with all the mis-information..........in the election right now. If you're really looking for love/relationships.............how can you start it out with a lie and expect to find it. Never understood that concept myself.

Which "Old White Rich Guys" are you talking about? The ones on the left or right? If we let either side continue with "the unsual" any of us would be lucky to have vasoline used at all. Good point.......Old White Rich Guys are on both sides.....but mostly they stand on the fence line so their hands can be open on both sides. For now.....focus on the OWRG’s who are standing with their hands out asking for more money......more bailouts......and more tax breaks.......so they can get richer and trickle down to the American people. Did you see the tax plans in the Sunday morning Parade......one is aimed at reducing taxes for the average American......the other is aimed at reducing taxes for the top rich You decide what makes sense for your situation .

I think we should be investing in Unilever, the manufacturers of Vaseline cause of the major screwing we're going to get under an Obama administration…..Obama emphasized that his friend's terror acts happened "when I was eight years old." …….How do you honestly support someone who is virtually an unknown, who has risen in power by deceit and lies? He has every crook and robber and blasphemer pushing for him to become the next POTUS. Are you going to be counted in his number, too? Wow........It’s not hard to believe your from Alabama, MS Whistling Dixie. From your point of view.......“Whistling Dixie” should be our next national anthem. Sure all the “Old White Rich Guys” have the country and the American peoples best interest at heart……..Wall street sure has proven that fact.

Why do so few men take part in yoga.? Posted: 10/12/2008 8:03:44 AM
Don't fool yourself. There are just as many stupid yoga enthusiasts as there are stupid weightlifters. Good Point.............................. One reason is that yoga is not considered..............“Manly” Personally I’m not into organized classes of any type......I exercise at my own time and pace, hmmmmmm but a room filled with ladies bend over and stretched out in different poses.................does sound appealing. I have developed my own core stretching routine though the years that can be called yoga........I like to focus on stretching my spine and core body/back muscles.......great for for a healthy spine and great for eliminating any back problems.

all these people telling you it is illegal have no doubt never speeded in their car for example, an act far more dangerous to themselves and others than smoking a bit of weed. just chill you judgemental retards. God save the Queen........he's got it right. Lots of angry judgemental people out there........saying it's ILLEGAL.......your BAD Look in the mirror...........and say you never in your life broke one law..........never told one lie...........so does that make you bad, too?

i asked a guy out .......... Posted: 10/4/2008 7:31:27 AM
Personally I have great respect for ladies who ask a guy out. Nothing wrong with letting them know that your interested and want to get together. The better question here is……….how many times do you ask???????? From my experiences on here......I have chatted with ladies for weeks......and have asked them if they would like to get together......only to be told I’m busy this week......maybe next week......Ok no problem, we all have things to do. You chat some more......next week comes......would you like to get together......sorry, I’m still real busy......maybe next week......Ok no problem again, chat some more. Next week comes......and sorry again......so you get the idea......how many times do you ask?????? One of the many lessons I have learned in life is that; People make time in their lives for what’s important to them......if someone does not make time for you in their lives......well the fact is......you are not important to them.

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/4/2008 7:05:51 AM
I've always looked at it this way...........I will meet anyone once with or without a picture to see for myself. To me that is the only way to find out who is real on here......and who is not. I have no problem enjoying a ladies company for a couple of hours over drinks/coffee talking and having a few laughs......even when right up front you know.......the chemisty is not there. If someone does not want to meet me.............I can only assume, they are not interested.......to busy........ or they are hiding something. I'm sure everyone has encountered at one time or another.......whose who choice to mis-represend themselves on dating sites.......a lady who choices to not post a picture is being more honest than one who posts and old outdated one. For me.........nothing is real on these sites.........until I look into a ladies eyes..........hear her laugh........and see her smile. Than it all becomes real.

Dealing with religion/science while dating. Posted: 9/27/2008 7:47:07 AM
[I love science and I'm also spiritual. The two aren't mutually exclusive] That’s right….they aren’t mutually exclusive…..But seems like 99% feel that it’s either one or the other. Religion……not to be confused with spirituality…… is not magic, either is spirituality. The miracles talked about in the bible…….did occur…...not from some type of mysterious magic event that can never be explained……but from the knowledge of an advance superior being (God) who has the ability to manipulate time, matter and energy. The ability to change matter into energy and energy into matter…..poof…fish and bread for dinner…all you can eat……created from what appears to be nothings. Beam me up Scotty……not magic……..advance physics and a science…..that man will in time learn ourselves. If we don’t destroy ourselves first Now as far as dating or in a relationship with another the key is: If they offer you their truth and accept the fact that you can either believe it in all or part, without judging you……..they have found their inter peace and will accept you as you are. If they offer you their truth and than condemn you to their idea of a burning hell if you do not submit to their believes……..that is the biggest clue you can get…..that they have no idea what the true meaning of God is all about and they will never except you for who you are.

Global Warming Real? Posted: 9/21/2008 6:59:59 AM
Sure climate change has occurred naturally over the life of planet Earth and will continue to do so and change. But……if anyone thinks that the excessive pollutants we continually put into out atmosphere and ground has no effect at all on what’s happening. Well….keep your heads stuck in the ground…..you’ll get poisoned there just as well. The cow thing, Yes…….20% of all air pollutants are from cow farts…....methane gas…..which is worst then excessive CO2 emissions.

How to understand the world if evolution were false Posted: 9/15/2008 2:37:07 PM
All the opinions on here are interesting........................but Why........does it have to be one or the other.........I'm right.......your wrong........winner take all thing here???????? Evolution and creationism are one in the same........just forget the 7 day things or anything in the old testament for that matter. Big Bang......our universe was created from one sub-partial that explanded and is still explanding......Creationism........and is evoluting daily from the beginging of time....until the end of time......Evolution. In another few billion years the universe will stop explanding.......reverse and return back to one sub-partical All part of the plan. There is only one......which came from only one........and everything will return to the one.

Choosing Love Posted: 9/14/2008 5:42:32 PM
Love is both..........chosen and chemistry. The chemistry......the primal draw......the deep passion is what draws two people together. At that point we choose to love or not to love based on where we are in life and what fears are still controlling our emotions. The question is at what level in your thinking mind...conscious…..sub-conscious….unconscious are decisions on loving another being made. As we grow older and have more experiences with loving others……we learn the true meaning of love….which is nothing more than us learning how to remove the blocks/fears which hold us back from loving another.

Time to come clean: What keeps you from meeting someone? Posted: 9/14/2008 6:36:12 AM
This is a topic dear to my heart and one of the main issues I've had with all the on-line dating sites. Very few ladies want to meet for real?????????????????? And I see on here that many women have the same issues with men. Everyone has their own reasons why they won't/don't meet..........but is not being honest one of the problems here. Honest with yourself and honest with others. If your not interested in meeting for whatever reason you have.........why would someone keep saying, yes I would like to meet you.........but keep making excuses for not getting together???????? I believe in lots of cases it's because people are lying right up front. Pitcures are 10-15 years old......thin build is not 5'2" 150 lbs......their married ......or just looking for an on-line fantasy. I look at it this way.........these sites are only a way to say, Hi I find you interesting.....lets talk and meet up for real to see if anything special is there. Because until you look into someones eyes......see them smile.....hear them laugh.....well, you will never know the truth about them, it's only a fantasy.

Why don't tall men choose to date tall women? Posted: 9/14/2008 4:27:02 AM
I wish it was a matter of choosing, never had the option.......hmmmm should I go out with the tall one or the short one tonight. I'm 6'2" and I don't set any standards on height......it's all a matter of who's willing to get out for a little fun and meet me. I'm not going to risk missing out on meeting a fun lady who may turn out to be the love of my life........just because she maybe shorter/taller than the limiting criteria I may have set. Taller ladies are better to slow dance with. And......once in bed......height does not matter at all.

kissing Posted: 9/14/2008 3:34:10 AM
Ok........put me on the love kissing side. Ever hear about the 10 second kiss when greeting your love? When greeting your love for the first time that day a peck is nice......but a 1o second kiss sets the mood. Ya'see after a busy day......it takes the first 5 seconds of a kiss to unwind.....start to relax....redirect your thoughts from the day. The next 5 seconds you will start to melt into the kiss.....forget the day......feel the real passion and the love your partner is giving to you. It works......give it a try sometime. I always try and greet my lady with a 10 second kiss.

Can Anyone Prove Scientifically That The Being Called God Exists? Posted: 9/13/2008 6:57:37 AM
Science and God are one in the same and Yes, God can be proved by science. The problem is that the human mind is not yet capable of accepting or understanding ideas so far advanced. Physics of all types, partial, string, quantum is starting to find that all matter…..all atoms….all sub atoms….all sub partials are connected. The entire universe as we know it….is connected at the sub partial level. Thus…..there is only One, just as God tells us. Most who do believe in a God, agree that God is not a human, but a superior being of some type greater than ourselves. Taking that one step further…..a superior being who has the knowledge and ability to manipulate matter, time and energy. We are talking about bean me up Scotty stuff…..turning matter into energy and energy into matter. One day human science will advance enough to figure this out. We live in….see….feel……touch the physical realm of relativity. The spiritual world, so to say, is the realm of the absolute, absolute Love, Gods realm. The different between the two as to why we see…feel only one realm is back to basic science. As energy is slowed down it becomes a solid state, as it speeds up it becomes not-solid. Freezing water into ice is an example of this. Again basic science teaches us that light and sound frequencies go on to infinity in both directions from what we as humans can see, hear or measure. Different realms of existence exist at different frequencies on the infinite light spectrum. Science also teaches us that energy can not be destroyed…..I learned this in 3rd grade science…..it can only be transformed. We are energy….thus we never die….only transformed into another form of energy in a different energy frequently on the spectrum. Just as God tells us. But….the best proof….is to go within. Every answer and all the proof of God there is…..is already within you. If you truly want an answer….your spirit will always be there to answer you.
