Let's face it.
The "best" some people can ever be is "master-baiters"!

Yup...I was wondering the same thing. You would think someone as worldly, sophisticated, and educated as Jack wouldn't have any problem handling Manila.

Whoever said that you don't need the CFO seminar is full of $hiT!!!

I use the "F" word here on VJ as a word of "emphasis".
but, in my non-VJ life, I never use that word.
I would feel ashamed to use that word with my clientele and my clients have never used the word in my presence.
Furthermore, my wife banned the use of the word years ago and she finds my VJ language distasteful.

It's like living near a pig farm. Quality of life is dictated by which way the wind is blowing.
This surely brings some closure to victim's families. Surely, provides a boost to troop morale.
"Safer" world?
Is the pig farm gone?

Pssssst.
UBL is dead!

Are you stating that all of your expenditures were spontaneous, impulsive and volunteered by you? She never requested anything?
I think it is time for you to purchase some "instant manipulator repellent spray"!
Bring in the "Logan".....OP needs to start the "manipulation" schooling! ASAP!

Just curious, where did you go and what did you do, during these 2 weeks?
Did you really spend it?...or...Did some of the $ find it's way to some1's (not u) pocket?

Teacher- Who is this man in the picture?
Johnny- Abraham Lincoln!
Teacher- Very good Johnny! Please tell me something about Mr. Lincoln.
Johnny- He was our 16th President and, hmmm, He liked to suck d""k?
Teacher- Very Very good!
Sally- Mrs. Smith! I like to suck d""k too! Does that mean I can be president someday?
Teacher- Sorry Sally, Mr. Lincoln was "Gay". You are just a plain ol' "Heterosexual". The most you can ever be is "Speaker of the House."
Sally- Ohhhh. So that's why mom keeps making me lick her P"""y?
Teacher- Exactly! Your mother loves you so much and just wants the best for you.

Aww, turn that frown upside down!
Whoever said wishes never come true? Some do! Yes they do, if you only believe.
So, here's what you do...
Hit the street walking. Maybe hum a tune to keep your mood up. How 'bout that Paul and Michael diddy, "Ebony and Ivory"?
Perfect!
Anyway, while you're walking and singing, try to spot the darkest skinned fellow you have ever seen.
Oh, but not some skinny little man. Find the darkest skinned all American beef, double quarter pounder with cheese, man.
Walk right up to him, singing loudly, and say "heeeyyy, MONKEY, wazzup?"
and Please, Please Please!!! Have someone come with you and bring a Digi-cam, to capture the moment.
Then hurry and up it here!

Something I don't understand;
Why do some people, when angry, say something like, "suck my D###!"..?
Like that's a bad thing!?
Or, they say to someone, as an insult, "you are such a C###sucker!!"
Why do people try to attach a negative connotation to something so wonderful?
Doesn't that demean those doing the sucking? Wouldn't that, in turn, decrease the amount of future suckings?
I, for one, enjoy and appreciate, recieving oral stimulation and would never ridicule some1 for being a C###sucker!
Rather, I applaud them for providing an excellent and loving service!!
So, when I say, "you are such a C###sucker!!" I mean it as a compliment!

Or it might read.... "Nearly anything looks better than Obama".

Find the zipper on the back of that man. Unzip it and out will step, either Adolph Hitler or Old Man Jenkins from Scooby Doo!
A hate monger / slavery profiteer rallying a host of zombies on the lunatic fringe.
Zoinks! That man gives me the willies!

Good idea.
That way you can get out on some of the bigger lakes without getting dizzy and nauseous.

Sizing up the length of your boat, I call that a "calm water vessel".
Take that boat out on a windy day and, you and your dog come home doing this for a few hours after!

Is this VJ or Facebook?

Putting aside the "racism" debate.
When used, generic "they" can be seen to have an implication of indefinite reference. It is most commonly used with indefinite referents of a distributive nature such as someone, anyone, everyone, and no one. Such references are not to one particular person but to a large group taken one at a time, causing influence from the implied plural.
The inflected form of "they" being debated, is nominative (subject) and prenominal possessive.
Nominative- "they carry"
Prenominal possessive- "their kids"
Therefore, Happy is correct. Kevin and Dave are incorrect.
VJ never fails to provide some comic relief!
Yanks having a heated debate over the proper use of "they".

(and)
Kevin:
The melting pot example was in response to his complaint about Spanish being a service option.
It's naive and arrogant to think that English should be the only language spoken in a country populated by the world.
(and) Wake up...the Spanish speaking population is a rapidly growing and soon to be dominant demographic.

That was a lenghty (and rather pompous) diatribe.
All the work you put into writing that post...it's a shame it all gets blown away with 2 questions.....ready?
Are you stating that ALL (Mexican) illegal's bring poverty, disease, and crime to America... and that... "THEY" ALL prey on America's vulnerable benefits system?
Re-read his phrasing Kevin...he doesn't say...some...or most....he says..."they". As in...all.

This might help.....Pay attention to the examples of the word usage...jeeeez...this is elementary school level.

Let me state it again...I agree that the U.S. has an illegal alien problem. Furthermore, I would like to see a fix to the problem just as much as you, Kevin and TCO. I would vote yes to... "The Great Wall of America" across the Mexican border.
(but) I'm not going to make a claim that... "they"...being the illegal's....bring disease, crime and poverty to America and prey on America's benefits systems...do some? Absoulutely...All? No...Therefore the sentence should be phrased as follows.....Some of them ...or...most of them...or...a majority of them...or...a percentage of them....or how 'bout....and within the ranks of the illegal's crossing the Mexican border, comes an element of .....
It is obvious that the phrasing TCO used is a blanket statement that labels all of them.
I think you and Kevin are ignoring his phrasing because of your staunch opinion(s) regarding illegal's.
I have an opinion about illegal's and...racism. I am able to differentiate the 2....are you?
I have heard the statement..."You are in America! Use English!!" ...since I was a teen.
Time to wake up....America has a rapidly growing spanish speaking population that spends MONEY!! (obviously) Some of it here in the U.S.
You took the flight to Fili....How many languages were represented on the flights and at the airports?
(If) The Arab community had the same purchasing power (represented in America) as the Spanish speaking population does...
Yes...Arabic would be on the menu...
Don't be too naive...The almighty Benjamin names the tune we all dance to.
