Reply to Bloggers making "poor choices" in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I've been on R & R on my own away from the networld for some time, so I don't know what transpired. I agree, though, that calling each other "labels" clouds whatever merit anyone's blogs might have. It's probably what we have to be careful about in this blogsphere (hey, it's not the only one, but we do have this chance to make it a good one, so blogitizens, (that the right word?), keep cool!). I confess to having ruminated dark thoughts on draginol on

Who Am I ? in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

...hmmrrph..hello.hello. Attention, everyone! I'd like to interrupt my series of blogs to introduce a budding young guest blogger. (How would you call it - proxy-blogging?). Well, anyway, see what you make out of his interesting contribution. Here goes...Ta-daa.. Who am I? I have thought about it once deep in my cot. As I pondered on my identit

Welcome To World War III in Politics JoeUser Forums

Scattersez: WELCOME TO WORLD WAR III : THE FACTORS LEADING TO THE GLOBAL WAR I bumped into one of my former trainees who came back from overseas, and sizing up the current situation, he told me, “When you really think about it we’re in World War III!” The conversation drifted to doomsayers and Nostradamu

Reply to Strong Resolute Leadership & Pooty-Poo in Current Events JoeUser Forums

So I don't understand the point you were trying to make unless it is you should choose weak, irresolute, wavering leaders. I think he just means we don't necessarily need "strong, resolute, unwavering" leaders, we just need smart ones.

Reply to The Tide Goes Out - The Crest of the Republican Party Empire in Politics JoeUser Forums

The voting this November will be remembered because of the stakes for the country's direction and future. November will be historical in the sense that the usual party lines will be crossed - no more Republicans or Democrats -just Americans defining their country for the world.

Scattersez: OSAMA BIN WHO? Remember Osama Bin Laden? He was this six-foot guy who rabble-roused some Saudis into bringing sh_t in the middle of New York several years ago which would forever change our lifestyle. Remember him? Yeah, the guy behind this exasperating ritual of spreading our arms and taking off our shoes everytime we go in and out o

Scattersez: RAISING UP MIGGY – (GROWING UP IN A STRANGE LAND) I think it was October then, barely a month after it happened.

I stopped reading your article after the phrase "if we were to accept the premise in Michael Moore's film". - you're so right. his name has been linked to a lot of controversy that you tend not to view the article but what that name means to you. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align

Why The Iraq War Weakens the War on Terrorism in Politics JoeUser Forums

Scattersez: THE IRAQI WAR – OR WHY IT WEAKENS THE WAR ON TERROR (BRINGING OUT THE GARBAGE) You know I actually went into a blogger’s block writing this, partly because I was saying to myself; “What! you’ll be actually admitting to the enemy over a vulnerable forum like joeuser.com that your country made a mistake . You’d be just providi

Reply to The Decline of a President in Politics JoeUser Forums

Without wishing to be partisan in this already thickly-polluted air of electioneering (as we near November), I find logic with your presentation of what the US is really facing right now. The problem I find is...do the ordinary folks..the 8-5 employee, factory worker, farmer from the midwest etc...do they understand what's going on? All they're thinking about now is.. those damn Arabs..making life miserable for us.and ..here's our President..ready to f

This Thing Called Love in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

Scattersez: This Thing Called Love Part II I was really tempted to drop this subject, and I’m not really the amorous type. I go out, like in a gilded cage and try to be nice and acceptable and move along and hope nobody bothers me but now and then…like everybody else…something gets my goat. So I guess, regardless of how …t

This Thing Called Love in Sex & Romance JoeUser Forums

SCATTERSEZ: THIS THING CALLED LOVE It’s difficult to talk about something that’s better felt or experienced to be understood, so for this blog, I’m going to try to do something ..new, well, experimental just to come across. It plays on that primitive instinct that seems to lurk in every blogger. It’s called voyeurism. I hope you like it. Here goe

Reply to stoopid in Humor JoeUser Forums

true. mistakes are suppose to be learning posts we circle around to better ourselves by not repeating them in the future. But when you look back and look at some of those mistakes and actually admit that those were the happiest times of your life..when you didn't know any better and you were...yes, stoopid. That's what you mean, don't you?

WHERE THE LIGHTS ARE This is an old story. ..but those of you who aren’t as ancient as I am have probably not heard it repeatedly narrated , if at all.

Reply to Why do guys act that way? in Current Events JoeUser Forums

...gee, I really don't know how to make you understand without making this too cold , but there's a lot of "biochemistry"now known to be going on in your body to explain how you feel / felt with a particular guy. Just to make it short, it just so happened that the face that registered when your mind was most vulnerable to these brain chemicals (neurotransmitters is suppose to be the proper term) was his. And it could've been any scumbag, you'd still r

The US Doctrine of Preemptive War - in International JoeUser Forums

Those of us who had the luxury of a late-night DVD viewing or those who chanced on an HBO replay of an early sci-fi thriller, whose hero (Tom Cruise) plays a future cop doing his errands of arresting potential criminals on the basis of a supposedly perfect batting average of ESP-gifted indivduals in predicting who would turn out as criminals, would shudder that thi
