I have seen so many threads tonight based upon looks...I even created 1 or 2.

Just wondering...what do you consider to be attractive in your eyes? What do you specifically look for or would love to have if you could?

Hardly a difference anymore. Unless you're going by the old definition, but then again he may like biting heads off of chickens.


Nerd...



Geek...



I rest my case...

p.s. unlike in men, nerdy women are just as hot as geeky ones... oh the double standard of it all!!

Hmmm, sounds like a registry problem (not finishing the boot up)...

sounds like a hard drive or registry corruption issue. When it "stops booting" can you hear the hard drive continue to spin, or does it stop as well....

in my personal experinece with this - if the hard drive stops in the same place at boot, it leans toward being a hard drive issue (i.e. the HD is going bad) If the pc get's to this same point, and the hard drive is accessed every 15-20 seconds or so, it sounds like a registry corruption issue...

Either way, I hope you have a backup of your important date - because the recovery can be ugly. You could always buy an adaptor for the HD, take out the HD and plug it into a desktop to see if the HD is working or not...

Some questions/observations:

1. did you make any configuration changes before the last successful boot up? Using the "last known good config" boot option would help in this case

2. if you are starting in safe mode ok, it may be that you have a bad piece of hardware... try turning off the wifi card via that littel switch on the bottom of your thinkpad.

3. if you are starting in safe mode OK, you can have some bad sectors on the HD, or a corrupted registry. Either this are a bad thing, and you may experience some data loss.

Also - check out this site - near the bottom - some tips for ASR...

Good luck, let us know how it turns out...

what im worried about is maybe she don't really like me and that is her way of just putting me off. I have tried to get her to go out again and explained that was how i was raised, to pay for the date, or if you invite friends out to pay for them. The one thing i know is she is living on her own and she probably dont have the cash, so i like to treat her out. I have told her she dont owe me anything and that i dont want anything in return other than her company. I must say i will give this another try and see where it goes. I have made up my mind and i will wait till she calls and want to hang out.

She also has stated that she has bad experience with other guys, and all i have to respond to that is that im not them. I think there is more to it, so i will try and see whats up...???


IMHO: If she wanted to put you off, she would say no to the dates... she keeps saying yes to go out with you, she is interested :). Going dutch? count your blessings, enjoy each others company -- she might just turn out to be a keeper :)...

trina find something outside the realm of sex.


actually, no - don't! rofl

it makes me feel special - when my gf makes it a point to comes over on Monday night, hang out, make me dinner, watches the game with me on game night "just because it makes you happy [sic]"... as for halftime that is between us...

basically, doing something that I like, that she would not do on her own - just because she knows I like it... it's nice.... like flowers I think... helping make the other feel special about themselves and the relationship...

I dont think being miserable is acceptable, since folks dont wanna be around that person.


I meant, "acceptable to them" due to thier natural disposition...

i believe that a great amount of people derive a certain comfort, and even pleasure, from sustaining themselves in misery.

only a rare portion extend his or herself towards true expansion of understanding.

what's the appeal of the misery mentality?

i've heard there is safety and security involved in it.

i've also heard that fear and laziness play a part.

this isn't really philosophy, so i put this here.


misery is easy, happiness takes effort - many people are lazy.

I agree with fear and laziness playing a big part in misery. I also think some people simply have a negative/miserable disposition - in that light it may just be normal or acceptable!

Google 2.4% Rate Shows How $60 Billion Lost to Tax Loopholes

Fair Tax, Taxpayer Choice, whatever, I think an implementation of a flat tax that lacked loopholes would be far prefereable to a system that allows on corporation to pay 2.4% while most others pay 35%.


I support a flat tax. no income based tax, everyone pays, no loopholes, no tax on used purchases, no tax on capital gains, no IRS... ect ect... it's a total win win, nor is it a new idea. Biden was one of the senators that was supporting a flat tax structure back in the 80's.....

As for corporate tax, I will take 2.4% of google's profit over your 35% on 30k any day.

give a damn.
do guys really care about make up.
or would they be fine if she didn't wear any.
i think make up is more important for the girl than the guy.
but i suppose it's different for everyone.


I agree with your comments...

I like it when the woman I am with is comfortable either way... I enjoy being out, all dressed up - and she wears make-up - looking beautiful, but my favorite times are early am coffee on the porch, when she is wearing none... (make-up that is!)

:)

what I don't like is a woman that spends an hour on make-up to go to the gym!! LOL!!

if everyone around u is telling u not to get in a relationship with someone becuase they dnt like him but your heart says something else.. wat do u do? do u run the risk of steppin out on a limb or do u listen to yur surronding peers?


well, you know your own heart - know your own mind as well. The difficulty is how your heart can cloud your mind... if you just met the guy - enjoy the fun of a budding relationship - I mean, it's not like you are running off and gettting married and/or having kids...!!..

Let it play out... relationships are not like light switches...!

Well, this has been a very small survey of individuals, but it seems the evidence is overwhelming.


Americans have no shared values. There is nothing that unites us as a culture, not even as a society of people who are civil to each other.

Nationalism is non-existent - there is nothing that binds us together as a nation. Even the governments attemt to undermine each other. The branches of the Federal government are even at odds with other and dysfunctional.

The FLAG? What does it mean to anybody except a piece of cloth with which to condemn others.

Let those who have a national sense of belonging fly whatever flag they want - what does it matter?

One nation (under God)with liberty and justice for all? We are not a nation built from the union of states, there is no interest in liberty or justice, we are nation of seperatists.

Bring home the troups - who is here to support their effort and what are they defending with their attacks. Someone should tell them, the flag has fallen.





OP: this was not a survey - but an expession of opinion spawned by a question, the responses to which you have your own opinion on. Even if it were a survey, the aknowledged small number of responses would fail to prove "overwhelming evidence" by any statistical measure... that being said...

Although the VALUES may be diverse, the FRAMEWORK exists to make it so - meaning, the framework it built (like a road), and the values you are looking for differ from person to person, race to race, culture to culture (as diverse as the cars that drive on the road)... in america - you are free to chose your values (car) and go where you wish (the roads), but be happy in the fact that the framework has been established for you to do so (drive your car/truck/minivan/bicycle) wherever you want, it's your choice...

The power of america is freedom, and the right to pursue YOUR happiness whatever it may be, is assured by the framework - as long as it does not hurt anyone else or infringe upon their happiness... pretty simple really. You want americans to have one value system - when forcing a single value system is directly contradictory to the framework - which firmly establishes that the power of the country comes from that very divrese set of values...

So I say to you, you are missing the point of America. Freedom of choice and expression - not dictation of a specific set of values.

I see civility every day, amongs people of different values, cultures, races, genders, sexual orientations, ect... you choose to focus on the "fringe" that is your choice... and thankfully - the framwork provides that you are free to make that choice..

The flag is representative of the establishment of this framework independent of all other countries, as well as a symbol of freedom and the communication that a place exists on earth where you have the right to pursue your own values - in safety and with equal protection(s) in place... the flag also represents the thousands of lives that have been voluntarily sacrificed fighting for those very beliefs....

You are completely free to fly whichever flag you wish - you can even create your own. Freedom of speech and the right to lawful gathering guarantee this. As a matter of fact, you can create your own militia, create your own flag, assemble and have meetings - even purchase and stockpile wepons legally - all established within the framework of the country... if is is your passion to do so...

Unions and states do exist, weather or not you choose to recognize this fact is your opinion - but they are well established. Local power and control are written into law, and are debated virtually every day in this country. The local laws in your municipality, city, county and state have more direct impact on your life than does federal law... if you spend the time to research these facts you will find them to be true... We are a nation of individuals - and are free to act as such...

Actually, I am one of the people who support their efforts (our troops) and I hold the flag high - YOUR flag has fallen, that is your choice... MY flag has not, and I know many, many people who feel the same as I do....

Such is our right, as individuals...

perhaps you are simply human? examine why you are feeling guilty - and take action to remove the guilt from your life...

you have to look yourself in the mirror every day - not at us. you must judge yourself by your own life standards, and be happy with it... if you are not happy with your actions, work to change them toward what you find to be morality...

good luck to you!
