women in the kitchen

i have already told you that you can be a world dictionary. nobody else wants that job anyway.

It is a thankless job Laglen and the pay and benefits suck...but if you want it...ya you can have it.

I wont believe it til I am ensconced in my beautiful palace....

europe, including britian, is not actually much like it was 800 years ago. and generally a good long way from that medieval 'morality' this discussion is about.

I'm curious, mystic...what freedoms have been ignored or tossed under the bus? IMO, the religious right would be all too happy to take many rights away from everyday Americans if given half the chance.

Just a few recently in the news are: The freedom to protect ourselves and our property as shown in the lawsuit against Arizona. Oh, I know the new law was touted as a civil rights issue by our leaders (before they read it and some still haven't), but the lawsuit says nothing about civil rights. Instead, it says the Feds have first dibs on a job they are refusing to perform. The fact that the courts have allowed other states, like Rhode Island, to do the same thing seems to have no bearing. And, the fact, that many states, in direct opposition to the federal laws, have sanctuary areas for illegal aliens amd are never punished seems to have no bearing either. How about losing our right to vote? The latest conflict is discovering that Black Panthers standing in front of polling places, with weapons, will not be punished. But, hey, they aren't allowed to attend any other polling places UNTIL THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. A man who left the Department of Justice is testifying that he left because he could not give this information while employed there. His information: The DOJ will not bring the Black Panthers or any other black person to justice under Civil Rights rulings. Obviously, only white people can be punished under those, even thought THEIR civil rights are being trampled. How about states such as Louisiana being punished by destroying their fishing waters, their shores and now, going to court to put a six-month moratorium on all oil rigs. This will, in effect, destroy any jobs associated with oil rigs permanently because those rigs will be gobbled up by other countries, who are already making bids on them. They are thrilled to take even more of our jobs away as our government hands over about thousands of jobs just from Louisiana - that's not counting the ones from the other Gulf states. How about the right to work, which has been sufficiently destroyed in the last four years - yes, that's right, both adminstrations were responsible. But, Nancy Pelosi seems quite happy with everyone getting unemployment compensation indefinitely. She actually said those monies 'stimulate the economy.' Either she is lying through her teeth or is dumb as a rock. I don't think she's that dumb. IMO, we are in the process of having our country destroyed from within, as the USSR and China have promised would happen. And it's happening by the right and the left. There are no innocent government bystanders in this destruction. They count on our blindness and so far, it's working quite well. Of course, most damage right now seems to be aimed at states who have Republican leaders. Contrary to Congressional and White House opinion, what is being shown is our President's inability to handle anything except reckless spending, which he does very well. Only the Republican governors seem to have ANY ideas on how to fix things, but the Washington Red Tape gang won't let anything get done.

wrong tense irish. after he's eaten your delicious brownies the phrase you need is 'was full of it'.

idk

They want some of what the rich people have.... Sad, since there's really enough to go around.

nice to see where your priorities are. although can't you do this already if you want to? - you might not be invited to many dinner parties and you'd look silly but could be fun.

dress like this every friday. then, when people look bewildered/scared, you can ask them why they are not participating in fancy dress fridays. if you work in an office you can tell them it is company policy

I guess that I could still do that, but as I am rarely allowed out in public as it is, I think it best not to push the envelope too much now. Besides, I didn't even get into the part about not having to waste time and effort on personal hygiene, although some of those practices I would still hope to see people doing.

i think they probably get their view of it from disney.

Yes, Disney left the plague out. Don't want to scare the children. Reality often scares children (and grown-ups).

i think unpleasant social change often comes when people are disatisfied and will leap on anything different, without thinking it through very carefully. rise of communism is a good example.

you get idiots with all kinds of views.

i think fear is actually one of the reasons for this. have a few deep breaths and have a brownie. not one of irishidid's though. dawn's are better.

they will. some of them. they just need housetrained first
