Tattoo taboo?

olaff123 @olaff123 (433) • Namibia 6 Jan 08

Do you find tattoo body art attractive? I really like it on well-defined bodies - when it makes a visual statement. Some instances are totally gross, when it becomes so overpowering that it is unacceptable. Where to draw the line?...

olaff123 What have you got and where? I would like to get a few Chinese dragons. I'm still searching for the right ones. And I need to go to South Africa for the tattoo, as the Namibian artists are a bit dodgy.

After reading a few things earlier and deciding not to respond to their discussion, although it was interesting, I felt it would be better to leave my comment (on this subject) to myself. However, it raised a very scarey thought,...

olaff123 Most probably it would make no difference to the many millions of Christians out there. The type of book has done the rounds so often, to no effect. The latest in line is called "The God Delusion" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_God_Delusion).

olaff123 Don't you think it depends on both parties? You need to be a good husband too, to have a happy wife. I believe that there is a third component involved, the marriage or relationship, and unless the two parties commit themselves completely to the relationship,...

olaff123 Children often have crazy eating habits. I used to eat all my veggies raw, even pumpkin. I absolutely refused cooked veggies. He'll grow out of it - I think the easiest way is to have him with you at dinner. I found that it goes easier if they see what you eat...

olaff123 No, I don't think this is fair. You've been working as hard as he had during the day, and yes, maybe with good time management and depending on your circumstances, you can get a good deal done until he returns home, but I still think that he needs to attend to...

Kowgirl @Kowgirl (3489) • United States 6 Jan 08

olaff123 I hate most of them with a passion. But the one thing I really hate when washing up, is doing the cutlery. For some or other reason I will leave it, if possible, for days, without washing it. And then I end up with a zinc filled to the top with knifes, forks...

olaff123 If you like detective novels, try Johnathan Kellerman. I love his books. I used to read Agatha Christie as well, she wrote well but the books are quite old now. However, she created marvelous characters like old Poirot and Ms Maples.

olaff123 I haven't read any of them, but you've got me interested. Are they enjoyable or too immature for an adult reader. I like to read fantasy once in a while, but I prefer if the book is accessible to all ages. A good example is Alice in Wonderland.

Do you think talking on a cell phone while driving should be baned?

olaff123 It is illegal to talk on a cellphone and drive in Namibia. The traffic dept fines you on the spot when they catch you doing it. It is a good thing, as it diverts a lot of attention from the road.

olaff123 I don't have children, but it will drive me crazy. Remember, you are human too. No parent is perfect. You need some space as well and I hope you find a way to get it. Is there maybe someone who can spend some time with her as well, giving you a break?
