  1. Hello All,

    It's been so long since I've been online. I hope all is going well for everyone.

    Things are slow here, but Ahmed has been hired as a substitute teacher's aid. He is in the process of updateing his bachelor's degree so he can teach here. It's been crazy, and we constantly go through a learning process. Everything takes so much time. However, I feel confident he is headed in the right direction.

    Oh, and he had told the superintendant that hired him he was worried about his accent. Turns out the superintendant wasn't. So folks.......never let the little things stop you.

    I wish you all the best. And again, thank you for everything. I couldn't have held it together so long without you.

    As a note........I spoke with Deb of Deb and Ali, and she said her fiance had another interview today. It's been well over 3 years for them. Let's all send some mojo her way.

    Many, many thanks,

    Sue

    Hello to Ahmed & Sue !

  2. I started my diet the day after Memorial Day last year and I have since lost 60 pounds. Ever since January 2009, it seems like I have hit a brick wall. I have tried everything. Walking two miles a day and there have even been times when I did not eat for days :( . My doctor says that I am now in my range for my height/weight but it is at the upper end and I just want to lose another 40 pounds to say I lost 100 pounds :dance: ! I just feel like my body is fighting me tooth and nail to stay at this weight and at 30 years old, it is just not like when I was 22 in college trying to lose weight. I just feel like a failure. :(

    Don't feel like a failure. You did a great job! :dance:

  3. let's tell them while we are waiting for USCIS! :hehe:

    To my devilish lovely wife:

    How do I begin to tell you how lucky I am

    to have you in my life?

    I'll start by saying what a gift you gave me

    the day you became my wife.

    You're my best friend in the good times

    and my rock in times of sorrow.

    You're the reason for sweet yesterdays

    and my promise for tomorrow.

    I never thought I could feel this loved

    until you became my wife.

    You made this year and every year

    the best one of my life.

  4. "Sorry, I just had a blonde moment" <--- total copout, yet I hear it a lot!

    Please help my lingo! what do you mean by blonde moment?

    Hmmmmm.. you mean when the brain goes on a total fart moment :innocent: innocent

  5. ummm... ive only ever heard it come from obnoxious jocks on tv, like as a come back, when they win a bet or something. like ohh i bet i can drink more than you, ok, so we do it, and you beat me, or vise versa, one can scream "Who's your daddy now???!!!" its just an obnoxius saying, doesnt necessarily have a structured meaning. any1 feel free to add or clarify. hahaha i cant believe som1 asked that, but i hope i cleared something up. haha

    LOL.... :devil:

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?...%20your%20daddy

    Used as an insult to demonstrate authority, hence the "daddy" part. Most likely performed by the giving end after the recieving end is pwned/owned. Also used by Superfly, one of Joe Cartoon's characters.

    Billy: Oh yeah! I just scored 15 3 pointers on your punk ####!

    John: Dammit, man..

    Billy: Who's your daddy?!

    Good one!

    right after a donkey punch.

    That hurt Sir Charles :crying:

  6. Picking your teeth (toothpick) - offensive in many parts of Asia, without the other hand covering your mouth.

    Showing the bottom of your feet/shoe - Offensive in Asia/MENA

    Not accepting a business card with both hands and reading it, followed by a brief comment - Very offensive in Japan.

    I find the latter amusing in US business protocol, given that we fling business cards like casino dealers..... "ah, did everyone get one of those"?

    You mean those ones you get while you are walking outside the casino :bonk:

  7. am sick & tired of paying F..ING taxes. I now suffer from sever TOXOPHOBIA :angry: f..K it 1000000000000000 times :angry:

    I am sure there is a nice log cabin you can go live in in some wilderness where you will not have to bother with taxes.

    Ron Paul is the man! :yes:

  8. If that were ever to happen the "Right" country would probably turn into an Americanized version of Iran. Very religious and nationalistic. Do anything that is not right under the bible, find yourself in jail by the Christian police. Alcohol might find itself in prohibition again. With a strong emphasis on capitalism and no social safety net, poverty rates would climb and most of the wealth and power would be held by an elite few. No free education, and most of the talented academics would probably not hang around. Even if they claim to be democratic, the country would eventually revert to some kind of totalitarianism, driven by religion and an unequal distribution of wealth.

    The "Left" country would be socially very free, you can choose whatever religion you want, or don't choose any. You can do pretty much anything you want as long as it doesn't interfere with rights of others. Economically wealth would be more distributed. There will be rich and poor people, but wealth distribution would be much less dramatic than it would be in "Right" country.

    That makes it sound like the socially aware side of the country would be the better place to be, especially if you were poor, or had other special needs. Of course, if you were rich and greedy, you would want to take your stuff and head to the other side. Do you see any problems with that?

    I pay up to my A... I feel like quitting my fricken job & collect like the rest :angry:

    You can stop paying taxes if you like, we will just charge you every time you

    • Use a road or sidewalk.
    • Need public safety assistance - Police, fire or ambulance.
    • Make you pay the unsubsidized costs for both fuel and food.
    • Want to visit a park or other public meeting space.
    • Want to go fishing or hunting on public land.
    • Charge you hourly rates for use of the courts.
    • Catching a criminal that damages you or your property

    BTW, your list is NOT complete :angry:

    Dude, now days the more you make the more you get F..ed up. I am going back to MARS! f..K it 1000000000000000 times :angry:

    I pay up to my A... I feel like quitting my fricken job & collect like the rest :angry:

    Like what rest? However, if you want to quit, go right ahead and go live on welfare, I am quite sure that is much better than earning a decent wage and paying taxes.

  10. :innocent:

    Dude is for male as to .......for female.

    Is the word CAR male or female & why?

    When I lived in Colorado males or females were called 'dude'.

    Not bad!

    FYI,

    Dude means WORM in Arabic :wacko:
