  1. Hey my Capitol One No Hassle Card has that on it! I love that painting.
  2. You know? I could care less, but I won't heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh . . . fart. oops
  3. My M-I-L says, "You people" all the time. Drives me insane. Any time 'You people' is used you're looking down on someone... Hey she uses that one too! That is when I throw in "when you say you people are you talking about us Cuban Americans?" Shuts her up quicker than shit.
  4. Here is the the question. You ready for it? You see that over there? Yeah over there? That pile of love right there on the floor. Try to fall in it. You don't see it? Why? Because love is not a thing it is an emotion. Guess what? This concept of falling IN love or being IN love is a fallacy. Love is a choice. And there are four kinds of love. The greeks had four different words for it. Storge - that "feeling of love" or affection that humans feel for one another. This is the instinctual love a Mother or Father feel for their children. It can easily become a possessive love. Eros - the root for erotic or sexual love based on physical attraction. This is the "Falling in love" type love that you are probably experiencing and you may even believe this to be more than what it is. It is temporary. It transports us beyond our problems and unhappiness or unrest as we feel another person fill an emptiness that we may not even know is there. It could easily never manifest itself in a physical way but it is the euphoria that we feel and that we think is real love. Phileo - The feeling of being strongly attached. This one developes as we begin to rely on another person and they on us. Other definitions are companionship type love based on similarity in outlook, interests or plans. Most marriages are first based on this kind of love. Agape - unconditional love. This is the love with no strings attached. I will love you no matter what. This is the love required to keep relationships of any kind together, because let's face it we are human and we all screw up and so sooner or later you will hurt the one you love and unless they have this love for you, the relationship will end. It is the love that allows for forgiveness no matter the cost. We in the English language use one word to describe all four. The first two, Storge and Eros, can happen instantaneously and it is arguable whether they are controllable. Storge is not what you would be experiencing here so we can eliminate that. Eros, on the other had, is what initially creates interest in a life partner, it is not the deciding factor and should in no way be the basis of a long term relationship. The last two, Agape and Phileo, take time to develope. Now these two, without question are a decision you make. You choose to love someone in this way. It is the love that builds over time and takes years of work to develope. Notice the word develope. It is mentioned here and has a definitive place. Because these loves absolutely require time together. You are probably through the first stage because of your age or stage in life. Because you have a history together you could easily believe you are experiencing second. Thees other two however, you have to give time, take time and learn more about one another before you can begin to make a decision. And You cannot get to Agape before you first choose to Phileo love one another. And many people, in fact most, never get to Agape. That is a private conversation we can have if you are interested. No place for the forums. Confusing huh? Yeah me too but I can say my wife feels this for me far greater than I her (for now because I am a self centered plick)but I am working on returning it because she gives me more than I ever deserve..

  6. Thank you thank you thank you! We won! Defense rocked! Thank you. Now that my shameless gloating is out of the way I think you guys got cheated out of ten seconds there at the end. And who knows what could have happened? I thought that my Buckeyes were gonna be the suckeyes once again during that fourth quarter. KSU really stepped up their offense the last 30 minutes of play. Congrats on your Big 12 Championship though.

  18. How about this, take a bunch of people strand them on an island and tell them they have to get off it on their own. Make sure there is no food and see who eats who first. Oh wait that's right we have a show called Survivor already. Damn I was gonna sell that idea.
  19. Y aknow, I quit smoking September of 99. I was completely smoke free until this damn year. My best friend smokes and one day I asked him for a smoke. Cuz I thought I haven't smoked in almost four years and I can have just one. One month later I asked for another. Now I smoke five six a day and buy him two packs a week. I only smoke around him and at the DZ with other smokers. This keeps up I will be back at my 2 pack a day camel non-filters by next Christmas. The only thing that is keeping me from buying my own at home is I refuse to smoke in the house (my wife would cut off my sack) and if I were to actually start smoking again she would cut off my sack. (Of course I nkow that I have actually done that but see by smoking my friends and buying him a couple of packs each week I can lie to myself and pretend that I am still not smking.) I think I need therapy
